Comic-Con Phase 4: Stan Lee & Minion Stewies Oh My

UPDATE 8-15 2PM EST (Bunny): Due to confusion from players on Part 3 of “Bombs Away” with Blobulous, his two hour task to get Bombs will be disabled until Part 3 is completed. (People were sending Blobulous 2hr instead of Chris 4hr.) Then it will return. Also, Stan Lee Trailer not dropping will has a fix on its way.

 

Update 10:30 PM EDT: Just received word the update has not hit Kindle yet.  As soon as we hear it’s hit we’ll let you guys know.  In the meantime keep earning that Blam! 🙂

Update 9:30 PM EDT: If you’re getting the Consuela screen with the boost::bad_format_String ERROR… showing up…TinyCo IS Aware of this and they’re working on repairing it.  Sit tight and hopefully all will be restored shortly! 🙂

Hello There Clammers!

Phase 4 of Comic Con is upon us!  Another celebrity has hit our towns and Stewie has changed yet again! App Store Update has hit!

More details are on the way…just as soon as we go through everything ourselves.  But for now…as usual…Peter kicks things off for phase 4!  (note you have to have completed the Enfant Terrible Part 6 questline for phase 4 to start for you)

Warning Mild Spoilers Ahead

First let’s cover the new stuff….

When you first start the update you’ll go through the tutorial for bombing Stewie’s minions…THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!  And can only be stopped by Bombs.  Peter kicks off this part in the questline called Bombs Away.  Here’s the basic details (As always we’ll have a FULL rundown post of the details in the Stewie Bombs soon):

2014-08-15 00.35.08 2014-08-15 00.35.30

Once you go through the tutorial you’ll have to reload to enable the full bomb feature in Quahog.

2014-08-15 00.37.36

You’ll have to hard close out of your game and go back in to trigger it to reload.

Various tasks will earn more bombs…or (of course) you can spend clams on them and buy more:

    • Just utilize the time you have. If you can spend moments to send characters like Peter on his Surf the Bird task over and over, that will help with Blam!. Just try to go at whatever pace suits you. Try and complete the questlines it gives you and ONLY focus on the event characters. Do not try to unlock others that are around to stay.

  6. I am totally lost. My game is still stuck in using pesticides. And I haven’t been bombing stewies I still have the ray gun. Should this have automatically updated or am I behind in the quest? So I have to wait before it happens.

    • Each Phase is a continuation of the previous one. You need to complete the prior Phase questline to move on to the next one. Can you tell me WHERE in the quests you are? Like if you tap on your task bar menu on the left side, what tasks are you currently trying to complete? Quahog Comic Con? Creature from the Goo Lagoon? Enfant Terrible? Let us know so we can help better.

  7. I really like how they made Felicia interact with the ethereal forest! It’s a huge step from the alternative which was sending Peter to play with the washing machine and then never seeing him again for 12 hours. I hope they continue to add things like this. It adds a little more depth and detail.

  15. Finally unlocked the Hellboy this morning! Making pretty good headway on getting Stan’s stuff. Only 4,000 blam away from the Q hotel. Not bad at all considering I was only at about 20,000 blam several days ago, thank you Mr. Cranston!

  16. So I was gonna buy Stan Lee, but noticed this and I didn’t know if anyone else has brought this to anyone’s attention. Usually if you buy each thing for a character, it’s cheaper than just unlocking them. To buy each piece for Stan Lee, would cost me 190 clams. However, to unlock him, it would only cost 145. Any explanation? Here’s a picture to explain better..

    • It is all about how you play the game. Buying it all in bulk in one fell swoop will usually be cheaper than one by one. The single price is for those that just want an item here n there. Make sense?

  29. Don’t know if you’ve mentioned this or not, but at some point you start to get quests that earn clams for bombing minions. I don’t recall the first level but it was something like “kill 3 minions with one bomb and get one clam.” It keeps increasing. I’m at bombing 10 minions with one bomb to get 10 clams.

I’ve been able to keep the 25X multiplier with giant stewie going for 3 days now, unlocked Blobulous and Red Hot Lois finally! Bombed 300 stewies in just a day and got the tri-cycle. Only need 2 more film reels to unlock Ron Perlman, in the process of getting stuff for Stan Lee. I may try to get Felicia Day and Nathan Fillion so I can have my complete set and clams. So far, so good!

    What would give out more blam? Collecting bombs and killing minions, or collecting pestisides and killing giant stewie?

    Like

    • I still think the pesticides is the better bet…but that’s just because I stink at getting minions! So a combination of both is your best bet 🙂

      Like

    • A bomb is worth widely varying 45 B! To 200 B! depending upon your bombing prowess (3 to 10 or more B! scoring minions). A pesticide is worth a consistent 93 B! to 138 B! depending when you cash in.

      Bombs do have the benefit of item drops, too.

      I’m leaning towards pesticides right now because I have to spend less time on the game as school time demands approach.

      Like

      • My pesticide numbers were a bit off on the low end (I was going from memory and calculating in my head). If you turn in 29 pesticides for 2500 B! you get 86 B! per. I refuse to do that until the last hours if the event when you can’t wait 24 hours for a reset.

    • Personally I like killing giant Stewie…but many are saying bombing is the best for them. I think a combination of both is the best bet. I usually run 1 streak/day on Giant Stewie (going from 1 to max) and get over 3,000 Blam! for that…and if you kill stewie’s inbetween you’re set. 🙂
