      • Get to what? I’m saying this cause i already unlocked Seamus and the Pirate Cove, but, he keeps on talking about “wanting to be friends with a bird” Another thing is I’m doing the Goth Chris mission and it says he needs to “rock out” but when I click it, it says I need Kool-Aid Man. Another Another thing is, is the Endless Summer quest over. I’m saying this because I can’t find the boombox anywhere.

        • Did you look at the walkthroughs? As far as completing questlines…the info is there. How to progress through each District. It tells you what steps you need to do next. As for individual quests themselves, there will be “limited time/item/buildings” ones for some characters as they only work with “limited time/items/buildings”, so if you don’t have those items…you can’t do those tasks.

          As you poke around our site, a lot of info is broken into categories on our menus. If you can’t find what you need specifically…there is also a really cool search feature in the menus that works with google, but uses only our site content. So makes finding info fast.

  10. Hey bunny I was wondering how long it takes tinyco to get back to someone on game issues, my account has locked me out. I haven’t been able to play for almost 24hrs now. Everytime I try to play it crashes on the loading screen. I know it’s just my account because when I troubleshoot and uninstall and reinstall the basic game works fine but when I log in through fb or email it will crash on the loading screen. And I’ve tried logging in on 4 different devices. I’ve sent them an email and it says the will get back to me In a short while they just need my username player id or device id and when I send that back to them they never got back to me. I’ve sent 2 emails the second contained both username and device id but they sent me an email still asking for those. I’m so close to Jesus and babs and I don’t want to miss out on them or the free 25 clams today. I’m sorry this is a lot but I figured the more detail the better. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas. Thanks for all your hard work and what you do for us clammers.

  11. They are not contacting me back. The game works only if I do not log into my main account. If I make a new one it works however it shuts down on the loading screen of my main account. I am completely freaking out. I think my file is gone in lag land. Idk what else to do since they keep sending me this stupid automated message or telling me the email can’t be sent because of a domain error on their end (via aol) I’m sorry on bugging you with the issue but I don’t know who else to turn to.

  17. Hey all, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Koolio Kwanzaa, Happy New Year!

    I’ve had a look through the comments but can’t see a resolve for an issue I’m having: Consuela tells me I need to upgrade to go to my neighbours towns. I have deleted (until this is resolved) the Facebook friend who had been having issues, I’ve logged out of FB, closed all apps and restarted the tab 3, logging back into FB. But no luck.

    I would like to try deleting the FGQFS app and then reinstalling but am afraid I might get more problems, like all the folks above, especially not being able to play.

    I’ve notified TinyCo but no response yet, and it is the holidays, and it’s only a game at the end of the day, so it’s not a humanitarian crisis. But if anyone has a suggestion or can increase my confidence in unninstalling/reinstalling I would be grateful.

    Thanks in advance 🙂

    P.s. I wouldn’t be that bothered but it’s one of the quests that needs completing – place a secret santa gift

    • Ok so I kinda found a work around.

      I opened the game, got to my town, swiped down and disconnected the wifi then quickly clicked the secret santa/neighbours towns button and it took me to Olly’s town. Before I responded to the errors I turned the wifi back on and then clicked ‘try again.’ I could then go to my neighbours towns.

      Turns out the next 3 friends gave me the Consuela error so no wonder I couldn’t get in!

  19. I really do hope that the tasks carry over past the event. We spend so much time on the challenges that we never have time to go through the quest lines. I am not holding my breath though, going off of past events. I think it’s pretty sad, because it seems that a lot of these quest lines were really well though out.

    Overall, I have enjoyed the pacing of this event, and there haven’t been any obvious money grabs. Well thought out and planned. The crashes and glitches still suck of course, but you can deal with them. I just really really wish they give us some time where we can focus just on the tasks. It never made sense to me to have such long tasks on a timed event, especially on characters that are needed to complete challenges.

  28. Got a response fron TinyCo about the device incompatible issue. Apparently there is a bug in version 1.5.5 that made it incompatible with a small number of devices. They are working to fix this as soon as they can. The main point is that those stuck on the previous version will still be able to get all the Christmas event content.

    To be fairbto TinyCo, it isn’t affecting me too much at the moment…….probably the biggest issue is that I have been having an issue with crashing and have carried out the usual troubleshooting steps, but can’t do a reinstall because my device is not compatible with the only version available in the store 😀
    Other than that, the ability to tap and freeze the shoppers is not available until I upgrade, so I am only managing to bomb two, three or four shoppers at a time instead of two or three times that amount. So its taking me longer to get the stockings for puppy Brian.
    Hopefully this will get fixed sooner rather than later. Thanks to TinyCo for the quick response and thanks to Alissa and Bunny for all their hard work.

    • Yeah, I have to take my case off the phone if play longer then like 5 – 10 minutes if a lot is going on in my game (minions and trick and treaters running around had to be under 10 or so, or I had real problems). Had my phone outside when i was working on my truck and it was like 35 degrees and after going in to warm up my game ran for almost an hour. Long enough to get rid of the treat and treaters. Thinking about drilling holes in the protective case to help with heat distribution. I find sitting by a fan helps too. I tested an old computer with a load tester and the processor slowed down after it got hot. I’ve been wondering if that’s why the game closes because of a big change in speed and the game thinks the device stops working. Would the game run better if it didn’t ask so much from the device, limited to like 60 to 80 percent of the processor speed. I wouldn’t mind the game been in a little slower if that stops it from closing after 10 – 15 minutes. Just my thoughts. Maybe they could test it and see. Hmm, put the battery the the refrigerator for a little, LOL. Merry Christmas.

  33. One glitch that I have constantly experienced and seen others report too….. Is the way the screen skittles away when you are tapping on something. Could be collecting $$ from buildings, could be tapping on chars (like freezing the shoppers or mutants or whatever). It drives me freakin crazy. Esp annoying when you’re trying to freeze a big furbal slam with 10 or 12 shoppers and the screen screams to the far left or right or wherever and your freakin shoppers scatter. Arrrrgh!!!! (iPad 2, if TinyCo is listening.).

    • I have an iPad 2 as well. This is where the touch is super sensitive on the ipad. You just have to make sure to tap and not do any sort of swipe. Just the least little sideways movement will send the screen flying. It’s not a glitch.

      Like

    • I have had this problem since the day I started playing and yes, also experience frustration during times you need the screen to stay right where it is e.g. freezing a group of shoppers.

      You tap just like normal and suddenly the screen zips past you in one direction. By the time you reposition back to where you were, the shoppers are unfrozen and dispersed.

      Like

    • To minimize the issue, I find that you have to tap the screen in a direct 90 degree hit – straight up and down. If you tap it even a little on an angle, it registers the tap as going in some direction and thinks you are pushing the screen. I have this on Android. I don’t see any way to adjust screen sensitivity (like the mouse speed on a desktop) on my phone.

If you tap him…his name appears right below…and depending how big your screen is…the “store” feature will show up as the inventory box icon…or a blue blip in the far right corner. If it does not…then you can’t store him and need to let TinyCo know.

  37. Hello. I understand people could not visit there friends cause IOS was updated but Andriod was not. It is to my understanding now that both are now up to date. This would mean that friends could now be visited without difficulty. Here is where my problem begins. Whenever I try to visit my friends it has me “connect to facebook”. The problem is that I’m already connected however because my username IS my facebook account (I connected to Facebook when originally making the account for this game).

    Anyway I click the “Connect to Facebook” button and it loads for alittle bit, then a message comes up saying “Log-In Erorr. You have returned to the App Without Logging in”. Have you ever heard of this issue before? I will send you an email now.

    If you have any idea of what’s going on could you please let me know. I have like 10 gifts and nobody to send them to!

Log out of Facebook. Shut down and restart your device. When it is back up, log back into the Facebook app first. Make sure it makes the connection to the correct Facebook account. Then, launch the Family Guy app…and try again.
