Well not to be out of sync, TinyCo introduced a lil something extra into our games in the WEEEEEE hours of the A.M. Good thing some of us don’t sleep. o.O
Two quick items, the first up…new Battery Packs for Clams options:
So for those of you that REALLY want to stock up on Batteries, the 3 pack is no more and instead you have a case of 48 Batteries for 500 Clams. I still find other ways to earn them, but up to you if you want to invest.
Secondly, the Robot Stewie over by the Comic Con area is now coming to life. Blinking, Smoking, all sorts of movement. What does this mean?Could it be another Box Option? Another way to get some MORE goodies? Well, you will just have to wait and see.
Let the speculations begin in the comments below. Lol.
UPDATE: It seems TinyCo removed the new tasks as soon as they put them in. This may be due to the NEW 3rd incarnation of Stewie Mutants won’t be ready to launch just yet. All I see left now are Quagmire’s tasks.
New Tasks | |||
Character | Task | Time/ Payout | Blam! |
Chris | Buy Bomb Supplies | 4hrs/ $50, 30XP | 5 |
Blobulous | Buy Bomb Supplies | 2hrs/ $30, 20XP | 6 |
Bonnie | Buy Bomb Supplies | 4hrs/ $50, 30XP | 5 |
Quagmire | Buy Bomb Supplies | 4hrs/ $50, 30XP | 5 |
Quagmire | Write a Haiku | 6hrs/ $50, 30XP | 10 |
Captain Hammered | Buy Bomb Supplies | 2hrs/ $30, 20XP | 6 |
Red Hot | Buy Bomb Supplies | 2hrs/ $30, 20XP | 6 |
That’s bout it for me…for now. Hang around, still SO much more to come in this event. EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

The new update is glitchy. I have started with Stan Lee and all the new buildings look great. But the Bomb feature is messed up. I start the task and read about how bombing works. Then I get the competed task notice and the three bombs. When starting the next task the game crashes. Maybe, it is because there aren’t any Stewies to bomb yet…

I’m guessing batteries will definitely be needed to make the bombs, and most likely multiple if they are trying to sell that big a battery pack. It doesn’t make sense to get a 48 battery pack when you can only have 4 baby mutties in your town at any given time.
That being said I finally unlocked Stewie last night and coincidentally Connie only had 1 hour left of taunting the fanboys so I got through that part of the questline super fast. Can’t wait to get all those wizards nerds out of my town!

sounds like there will be multiple (3-4) parts needed to build a bomb to get these new stewies. would explain why so many people can buy the parts. i would expect to be able to make/use a bomb once every 6 hours or so. just guessing like everyone else but seems plausable.
as for the mega battery pack??? maybe the stewie factory will finally kick into gear and you just might NEED them extra batteries. i’m still a long way from it but might be an idea to not claim it until later unless you can get the massive batteries. just guessing but isn’t that half the fun.
for now i on the edge of my seat like everyone else….

The clock over giant stewie showing the count down time to defeat him should run also after we have collected enough pesticide, I don’t like that the clock is no longer shown afterwards, maybe this can be “improved” thxs
LikeLike
Do you mean you want it to also show the 30 second cool down timer after you have vanquished Giant Stewie?
LikeLike
I think they are referring to the fact that if you have enough to vanquish but you are holding off to try to gather more for the next level, the timer doesn’t show, you just get a little symbol instead.
LikeLike
Yes correct, it would be nice if e.g. the color of the countdown clock would change instead of changing to the biohazard/blast symbol when you have enough pesticides for defeating.
LikeLike
No, he means that when you get enought pesticide for the current goal, the timer would remain instead of being replaced by the biohazard symbol.
LikeLike
It’s over his head so you can be aware of the time till the next pesticide would be needed if you didn’t collect enough (and the streak will reset). But if you have enough pesticides for the amount needed, it switches to the blast symbol. If you tap the convention Center and look at the pop up it will have the time remaining still counting down. It just isn’t necessary overhead if you have enough to hit him for the current needed amount.

He is. TinyCo listened to the complaints made by players after the Full Moon event, who wanted to see the total “event currency” needed so they could make a game plan strategy. So they showed all the prizes and total “Blam” needed in this event. 🙂

Is the convention center going to be winnable or purchasable in any way during the event?
LikeLike
This is just a guess (my favorite pastime..lol), but if the Full Moon event taught us anything, TinyCo likes to reward it’s players with stuff at the end of big events. So it wouldn’t be too far fetched to think that maybe…..just maybe, the CC would be waiting for us at the end. We already have the Q, and many have won (or could have won) the Clamterprise, so it makes sense. But again…just my humble guess. 😉

An interesting little glitch. All the debris and wild trees are suddenly gone from my un-cleared land plots. It’s just green ground under some smoke.

I think it was for memory issues. There is so much animation going on, they needed to cut back on the amount of loaded graphics. Much like the gun that zaps the Latcher Stewies no longer makes it’s sound effects. It hasn’t for me (on both my iphone nor my ipad) for over a week.
