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 bathtubs!) and we wanted to give you (and us) 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:

-The crazy mummy spawn rates.  First they’re slow, then they’re insane, then they’re slow again, and then they’re fast…make up your mind already!  What the hell?!
-King Butt’s Jelly-Yo Shot Sarcophagi.  What the hell?!
-And finally…four bags of grass seed on my lawn…yes FOUR bags and there are STILL bare spots!  We seeded the crap outta that thing and STILL dirt in various places.  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! 🙂

  1. There are no more tasks, no story, no use for premium items. WTH!!! I would quit if I have not paid real money in this game. Nothing to do!!! I feel ripped off. I hope they come up with more story lines soon, not just for a new district. WTH

  4. I’m currently working on getting items for the anime peter costume. All I need is one eye and two headbands. I haven’t had any issues with the crash until just now. Just collected from Lois and got my next headband after multiple attempts over the past few days. Moments after collecting it consuela (love to see her on the show, hate seeing her on the game!) pops up saying the game crashed. Usually I hit try again and everything is the same no problem but at this point nothing happened to I hit the home button and opened it again. Lois re appeared as ready to collect from so I’m thinking the headband would appear as before, NOPE. It sure didn’t. Why do bad things happen to good people?! Also is there a way I can contact tinyco and regain my headband or is it a lost cause?

    • Sadly, it’s lost. This is a reoccurring problem that TinyCo has been working on since day 1. They even issued a temporary fix in the form of a work around. When you get a epic or very rare item, soft close the game (home button) this will force a “save” and your hard work won’t be lost. Glad this is the only time you have experienced the crash. Hope the item “god” smiles on you and you get that headband back quickly. 🙂

  5. Warning: Rant

    I’m having a really frustrating time with this event. But, I’m glad I’m not alone. I find myself constantly comparing the game to TSTO. I play both games as a premium player, but after this event I’m no longer going to put anymore money into Family Guy until they better balance out their game. I’m not ready to fully give up on them, especially because I’ve already invested money in my game.

    I usually allow myself a budget of $20-$30 for limited time items in an event. And with the Stonecutters event it worked out perfectly. I never had to rush anything, I received all the prizes, and there was even a few days in there that I missed visiting neighbors. I love my new premium items. They feel special and worth it.

    The pyramid event is all over the map. New items are constantly appearing in the store and most of them cost clams. When the event first started I purchased everything that was premium thinking that was all they had for the event. It turned out to be a waste of money because I received the same items as well as items I’d bought before the event with in game cash. I gambled with the sarcophagus two times and received two DJ booths and three mini moon idols. Besides Cleveland, there are no other characters to get except for King Butt. And now, with only a few days left, I’m 10,000 idols short of getting him and I have no more money to spend. Nor do I wast to put anymore money into the game. Most of my items are in storage and I don’t need so many if the same items.

    I’ve tried really hard to remain positive. I’ve dealt with the ridiculous time lines and last minute game changes, the overly long wait for characters to unlock, the freezing, the crashing, and guessing.

    I’m sorry this is so long. But, I really feel cheated this event. Anyone that spends money on a game deserves better treatment. We’ll see how strictly freemium goes.

    • Hear, hear! Totally agree: PLEASE TinyCo, let us sell stuff back, even if only for cheaper! SO many games offer this option!
      The irony to me getting 4 skate parks, is I had JUST purchased one last week, while looking for ways to spend coins. Found a nice little spot for it. Now I have a total of 5 and absolutely nowhere to put them; as if anyone wants 5 skate parks? But I also landed 3 Dry Bush gardens… Here’s the WTH/WTF: way earlier in thr game, I had a quest that asked me to place one. So, why on earth would they make a prize out of something they KNOW many players have already purchased? Read: been forced to place. Am I the only one who got that quest request? (Ha! That’s a fun phrase!)
      Note that I’m NOT complaining about not getting the prize I want every play. I’ve gambled before. I know how it works. But WTH on the selection, chances and repetition! IDK what the solution is. Maybe offer the choice to spend more & get to select 5 prizes to choose from? Obviously only allowing one selection of clams and one of butts, the others of your chosing? IDK. Or after winning 3 of something, remove it from the list?
      Here’s what I got so far: (I’m keeping 50, 000 butts in case they update again with more expensive butt purchases and plan to cash in the remaining butts on the booty box if none show up by the last day. Wish they turned into coins..or CLAMS!!)
      -Indisposed Lincoln (cool, prolly wouldn’t have spent coins on that, so, ok)
      -Dry Bush Garden
      -Dry Bush Garden
      -Skate Park
      -Skate Park
      -Skate Park
      -Nefertahtah (cool!) (Totally would’ve bought if available)

As if my life isn’t bad enough, now I have to deal with this idiotic King Butt thing? Nah, I’ll just play casually and whatever I get, I get. As I said in another post, the Family Guy show and game doesn’t carry the emotional attachment created through character depth that the Simpsons do. I have no idea who King Butt is or why I should care about him or his partying camel. Family Guy has always been all over the place and about the quick laugh regardless of how a character would normally act, so that’s how I’ll play the game. I just have to realize it’s a completely different experience than TSTO and view it that way. Life’s not so bad after all. Sometimes you gotta just say “What the hell.” 🙂 BTW, thanks for both sites, you guys do a great job!

    WTH is with tinyco saying that the jelly-o game is going to give us such great earning potential that it would be impossible NOT to unlock king @$$ with our 100,000 idols? In the time sine it started I’ve collected 28 jellies the freemium way. Wow, staggering totals. I will hit multiple 50+ multipliers by next summer at this snail rate. I am a completionist but I refuse to pour copious amounts of clams into sarcophogi that potentially hand over an insulting 8 jellies for 120 clams. This event has made me think tinyco might be a business that is entitled to earning cash, but also kinda @$$#&£€$. WTH is with me being mad at a free game? I just want to go back to normal Quahog and forget about this event/cash grab which will be difficult because I have forty ugly Egyptian decorations messing up my town. I have a gorilla holding a kitten that’s bigger than a damn camel. I have 50,000 butts to spend and I have crap like bath houses and lotus ponds to look forward to…joy. Waiting for the last possible moment to spend just in case TC puts in something incredible. As an adjunct, I hope we at least get to keep the museum.

    • Oh, I forgot a few things.

      Why the helll… is TC more focused on original-to-the-game content (i.e. Kingdom of the Full Moon) than adding characters and such from the actual TV show? This event has been nice because we’ve been able to unlock Cleveland and one of his outfits, and I like that there are some new decorations that I can put in my Quahog. However, his event has gone on too long for something that isn’t even related to the show. As far as I can tell from their FB page, Stewie, Mayor West, Tom Tucker and Carter are all in much higher demand than anything related to Kingdom of the Full Moon.

      Why the hell… did TC wait until the final few days of the event to give us more chances of earning moon idols? I have no interest in reaching 100,000 to unlock King Butt, but I would like to earn enough idols to get all of the decorations and at this rate I doubt its gonna happen. 8-10 days would have been a more reasonable time frame for this Jelly-Yo nonsense, not 6.
      Why the hell do only three characters earn jelly-yo shots? And why are they four hour tasks? Given that we only had 6 days left when they introduced this new “defeat King Butt” task, I think it would be more fair to have either more characters earn the shots on 4 hour tasks, or leave Peter Quagmire and Cleveland to earn the shots but make them 1 hour tasks instead.

      I’ve become increasingly disappointed with this event. It was fun at first but now its just an obvious cash grab, and isn’t even related to the show. I hope that a new district will open up soon after its over.
