New Feature: What the Hell?!

Happy Friday Clammers!

Well, we’ve all made it through another “work week” (kinda, sorta, almost) and the weekend looms large up ahead. All week we field your comments about your frustrations in the game (those damn eyeballs!) and we wanted to introduce a fun new way for you to voice your frustrations and get it all off of your chest.  So welcome to What the Hell?!

-Getting REALLY annoyed that the last (or first) Eyeball won’t drop?
-Game crash right as you collected that last Headband and then it disappeared?
-Someone cut you off on your commute this morning?

Here’s your place to vent about anything and everything, Family Guy or not.  Consider this your weekly bitch fest and get it all out with a good…What the Hell?! And start your weekend fresh! 🙂
Just be respectful of others & be mindful of the language.  

Here’s my What the Hell?! For this week:

-Still working on unlocking Mermaid Peter in my “B” game…and I can’t get that last frakkin Seashell to drop from the ever lovin mother frakkin lighthouse!  What the hell?!
-At least 5 times this week when trying to get into my game I’ve gotten smacked in the face with the Consuela screen & locked out.  What the hell?!
-And finally…a table fell on my finger last weekend breaking it, while I was trying to do something nice for a family member.  Try to do something nice..end up with a broken finger…What the hell?!

Now it’s YOUR turn…give us your What the hell?! moments from the past week!  Go on, get it off your chest…you’ll feel a lot better! 🙂

  2. WTH: I finally have all the costumes and characters to date.. and then cleveland comes along with ridiculous amounts of items needed to unlock. i hope he isnt a limited edition character, as ill struggle to get all the inner tubes, as im currently at 2/25. other than that, im left with just the clown peter left in the costumes, and theres nothing i can do to unlock him now! i hope they bring that back so i have a chance to get him.

    • I know some items take a while. If you feel they are not dropping as they should, my best suggestion is to contact TinyCo directly from your game so they can check to see if there is an issue. Just go through your Menu, Help & Support.

I could have played more, I think, but I still don’t see how it was possible to get him in that small time frame.

  17. WTF!…a new place to bitch….oh boy…..(Wait?!….What do you mean, “I didn’t THOROUGHLY read the post”…let me re-read……OHHHH….WTH!!..lol)…ok…here we go….

    1) WTH!…I will now literally kill someone if it meant getting a headband…(Ok….that might be a joke…lol…or is it)

    2) WTH!…I totally agree with this statement made by Leehughes1701e in comments earlier, “I emailed TC ingame and I got a response. That had nothing to do with my question.”

    I sent a question about a problem I’m having and the Help Desk’s response was a bit of a WTH! moment. I just sent a more thorough explanation. We’ll see what response I get this time. Is this help area still “in house” or have you outsourced?

    Here is my game ID, read the help thread of my account from yesterday’s question to this mornings reply to get an idea why I called it a WTH! moment. Thanks Matt.

    3) WTH!…The “Barrington Country Club” still has the image layering glitch on the side of the building. I reported this, in game, several updates ago.

    4) WTH!…THE Matt F. Of TinyCo visits us (awesome by the way), but doesn’t use his “Matt in the Hat” avatar.😜

    • We’re still in-house, and we’re growing the team! A new member starts on Monday, in fact. He’s bringing pie.

      In the past 2 weeks we’ve had higher Support volume than normal. Because of this, the backlog is about twice the level it’s supposed to be. When volume is high, we need to resort to more bulk replies than normal, because this lets us wade through the current batch of issues and then narrow down to more specific issues that need direct help. We want to be CONSTANTLY improving our answer quality, but if you got one that’s not up to snuff, definitely let us know.

      The good news is, several of the highest-volume issues were fixed in 1.0.10, and we have made tons of progress on the rest. Much of this is thanks to the Familyguyaddicts community helping us troubleshoot and spread info about fixes.

    WTH Add pavement so everything doesn’t have to be placed on grass.

    WTH Bring Gold Suit Peter outfit and pool to android.

    WTH Joe STILL looks like a black box when not on task for android users.

    WTH Put in a character finder.

    WTH Add the ability to stop a character’s task with no payout as an alternate to speeding up with clams.

    WTH Why can I only have 1 lawn chair, thrift shop, etc. etc. Buildings that come with characters and buildings that drop items should be the only unique items.

    WTH Might as well bring everything that was in the beta into the game.

    WTH despite little mistakes, Tiny Co. deserves a tremendous amount of credit for everything that they have done. Actually talking to and being a part of the community of players. Listening to the community and making changes. The animation on Al Harrington’s is a great example of that, and it looks awesome now. I get so sick of reading all the crying about the same exact thing over, and over, and over… I can’t imagine how some of them must feel, knowing they read much more than I do. So once again, props to Tiny Co. you guys are handling things well and doing a great job.

    2) I don’t have all the land unlocked yet (see #1) and finally stopped trying so I could save coins for the future event. I still have one piece in the Asian district to unlock and all the northwest Quahog area to unlock in each game. It is just way too expensive given the low payouts, WTH!;
    3) TinyCo…please allow us to add friends NOT using FB!! WTH!;
    4)The suspense for the new update is frustrating…and frankly, the only things that should be suspenseful are Charlie Chan, Alfred Hitchcock and Vincent Price movies. TinyCo, there was a meeting and a memo, let us play and have fun!;

      • If I cannot dissuade, then please allow me to humbly persuade. If a murder mystery event (such as in the episode where Diane was killed off) is in the cards down the line, may I refer you to The Thin Man series circa 1930s. Peter Griffin as detective Nick Charles, who is always looking for a drink and getting into trouble. Lois Griffin as Nora Charles, Nick’s beautiful young wife who is full of banter. Joe Swanson as the loudmouth, hotheaded Lt. Abrams. And Brian the dog, as Asta. Even the lucky folks who saw these films in the theater would wish that Asta could talk like Brian. The Family Guy characters are tailor-made for raunchy reset of this brilliant and witty series.

        That being said, I am going to send my characters on tasks, pour Alissa and Bunny a margarita, raise a toast to TinyCo for making this fun game possible, and push play on some classic entertainment. Cheers!

      I’ve been putting my guys on hour long tasks and haven’t been that diligent about checking in every hour. I’ve got all the land and buildings in the game plus a Lincoln statue and 100000+ coins atm. Don’t forget that shared tasks earn more than two individuals.

    Bug: After doing the iOS update now, when I visit a neighbor and then return to my town, houses that have coins ready to be collected don’t show the coins over the house. I can still tap on the house and XP and coins will come out, but it doesn’t regenerate the coin image over the house. Even if I don’t tap on the coin over the ready house and then visit a neighbor and come back, the coin will have disappeared. I contacted tiny co about this, but anyone else who experiences this should too.

  37. Love this section. Here we go…

    1) I’ve maxed out Bonnie so she’s stuck at level 15 and the only reason Chris isn’t there as well yet is cos I’m using him on the one hour task with Brian to level Brian up faster. Why limit character progression? Bonnie is now on tasks and not earning XP. I emailed TC ingame and I got a response. That had nothing to do with my question. I asked them if there’s any plans to increase the limit from 15 or if they would consider doing so, and got back a random answer telling me they were aware of a glitch when we select Peter. WTH?

    2) Stewie. I understand from a marketing point of view they want to hold him back to keep us all playing longer and keep the game fresh, but an ETA on when we’re getting the most popular character would be nice. WHY the hell won’t they throw us a bone on when we can have him???

    3) Eyeballs and head bands. That is all.

What the Hell?! 1) unable to invite friends without connecting the game to FB (which I don’t want to do for privacy reasons) & 2) the limited amount of time you’re given to unlock special characters — I have everyone except for Pee Pants because my clowns NEVER regenerated and I was unaware that there was a time clock working against me. I sure hope they extend the time to obtain future special characters and re-offer the ability to obtain Pee Pants within game play. I’m sure not going to shell out 705 clams for him.

      I feel there’s been a big ol’ miscommunication from Tiny Co. but that limited time is the entire point. In order to get the costume, you had to get it during the limited time it was available. Complaining about that fact seems mad.

      Your complaint about bug is totally valid though and it sucks that that’s why you couldn’t get the costume. They’ve said that there’ll be a chance down the line so I think patience is required. I can understand why they don’t just want to give out the costume and devalue it completely. Maybe you should have messaged them and told them about the bugs preventing you from getting the costume? It seems very unfair.

        I’m very happy to be patient; that’s how I was able to obtain all of the other costumes that needed the epically rare items.

    I think that it should get harder as times goes on but maybe just having to collect even more of the rare items so that at least you feel like you are getting somewhere when you collect anything but you still have a bit to go.
