What The Deuce?!

Happy Weekend Clammers!

Well we’ve all made it through another week and the weekend is here!

All week we field your comments about your frustrations in the game and we wanted to give you (and us) a fun way for you to voice your frustrations and get it all off of your chest.

So welcome to WHAT THE DEUCE?!

What the Deuce

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 DEUCE?! And start your weekend fresh! 🙂

Just be respectful of others & be mindful of the language.  

Here’s mine for this week:

WHAT THE DEUCE….there’s still snow in Quahog.  I know it’s only January 31st but still.  I have enough snow to look at out my window at home, I really don’t want to see it in the game too.

WHAT THE DEUCE… parents NOT watching their kids as they run through the store knocking over and breaking items then pretending it WASNT their lil angels and walking away. Leaving a nice spot for others to slip and fall on or glass to slice them open.

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

    Fortunately I got George Takei first time he appeared and I’ve just managed to unlock King Butt and Pawtucket Pat but they were a nightmare slog, drop rate was none existent on most quests then loads drop the next time, it’s so random!!!
    The problem I’m having now is Mr Weed, I’ve got nearly everything except 6 machetes and with only 2 characters able to get them on 4 & 6 our missions!!
    My biggest gripe tho, posted a message to TinyCo thru the game on Fri 30th Jan, STILL no reply 😦

        Ah, thanks for that, I hadn’t realised that was the case, as it happens I’ve just received a response to my problem, they say there’s a bug in the system which is stopping the award of clams when completing some character sets and they will update us once they sort it out

  2. I enjoy this game, but there are things that need dire revamps. For one, the scrolling around the screen, and while trying to do so, you end up picking up a character or npc. What is the point of this? It was funny at first, but it’s infuriating now. I wanna see the top half of the screen, not pick up Roger. Speaking of which, on some of these recent forums people refer to an alien character. Are they talking about Roger? Bunny/ Alissa, please shed some light on this.

    And my last grip is with the epic drops. They need to get rid of them completely. I realize there’s a component to being able to get a rare character and Tinyco is a company trying to make money, but give everyone a friggin break. That’s where tsto is somewhat superior. Like when they got rid of the wheel of chance and even made a broken one available during Christmas 2014 as a bit of a tongue and cheek joke for the fans.

    I do love this game, but some issues need to be addressed. And space. More g-darn space!!

  5. WTD, at TinyCo having use get so many Ankhs. 68 total for both King Butt and George Takei in 5 days is impossible with the limited characters given. I’ve been working my butt off to get Ankhs since the beginning and only got 37, so there’s no way I’m getting both characters. TinyCo made Butt’s Ankh count too high. It should have been around 25.

    TinyCo should have made this a three week event, one for each part instead of squashing it all into 5 days.

  6. WTD! I’m a little late with this, as I’ve been in search for a QFS soundboard and found this one.

    I purchased the Old Timey Bike Shoppe for Barnaby as soon as it was available. I was working pretty well towards unlocking him, but when I woke up the morning of the 27th he was gone (with only about 10 of the weights left to get, which I would’ve used clams to force quests early if I needed to). I messaged back and forth with TinyCo and insisted that they took him too early, but they kept blowing me off. I told them that I paid for the bldg, but lost Barnaby before the deadline, and they said they couldn’t bring him back and that his bldg only cost $1000. There has to be a way to plead this, no? That’s the only character I’ve never been able to obtain, and it’s b/c all these quests and events came at once!

    Any thoughts Bunny???

    • Here is the difficult part. Those two were on timers. Only 5 days. Which means if you started them the moment the Event dropped, the timers would have ran out as early as the day prior to the end of the Event. This is common with many Limited Characters during Events. Separate timers from the Event itself. So you have to be careful and watch those lil clocks above their heads.

      In-Game Update: Phineas, Barnaby & Steroid Stewie!

      At this point all we can suggest it to wait and see if they bring them back for another try later.

Been visiting my town multiple times a day since the event began and only have 6 Ghosts and 4 Screwdrivers for King Butt – which also means another WTD is that sending all those characters that can earn screwdrivers on 3-4 tasks a day has resulted in WORSE drop rates than the Ghosts that can only be earned from Bonnie and Jerome – who were also dropping flutes (which is ANOTHER WTD all together)

    • King Butt was not really something we were grinding for, he was a bonus. It wasn’t until the final phase that we really knew he was a playable character for sure. Most of us were trying to get Cleveland freed and get the nifty Indiana Jones costume for Peter. We actually only ‘slaved’ at jelly-yo shots for one week AND don’t kid yourselves, these newer people who are collecting for King Butt are working JUST as hard as you originally did! I am trying to pick it up through a side account and it is infinitely more difficult without the mummies and jelly-yo shots!

  25. Okay how is it I don’t get clams for completing groups of characters that I bought during the best of 2014 event? That just seems wrong. I hope it’s a fixable glitch because I dropped some serious cash on coins for this event. I only started playing in October so naturally I had missed most everything except Christmas.

    Oh and what is the point of the dogs that mayor west needs to clear? Do they give money or anything?

    Also how do we get the same timeframe to unlock all these people for this event? some of these 14 items only coming from two people with 4 hour tasks is pushing the limit. 1week is a tight schedule when you missed a year of stuff.

I have more than half the required amount to obtain and only two days to go. It’s not happening for me.
    For all those people upset that they had the original King Butt through hard work and perseverance, you can rest easy, you’ll still have yours while a few lucky ones will get theirs and pretty well everyone else will be talking about the big one that got away.

They said we’ve already made adjustments to event drops and that the district is not timed but if I’m worried about flutes they can reiterate it to someone else and low and behold I got 5 in the past 2 days without saying I was worried about the flutes hope this helps a bit .

I’d like to believe it’s about ones personal gameplay, but I retask my flute characters religiously right as their timers end at four hours (Bonnie, Jerome, Bruce) and six hours (Stewie) and I’m lucky to get one flute a day. My drops for them have been more like one every other day. I don’t wake up in the middle of the night so maybe that’s my problem. But that’s ridiculous. That’s a ton of work and babysitting with extremely little pay off.

  40. My only “What the deuce!?” is space. I’ve played this game since the beta and have at least one of every item ever released because my O.C.D. tells me I have to have everything. But 95% of my money spent, and some not spent, sits in my inventory. Every update has a ridiculously large amount of content, expensive content, yet nowhere to put any of it. I’ve nuked my town a few times, and again a few weeks ago, and I’m almost full again with just the last few updates. I’m dreading any new content updates and that’s sad because anyone who plays Tapped Out knows it can be dreadfully boring with large gaps between updates. But with Family Guy their updates are just too much content at once, I know that sounds weird. This game needs a substantial increase in land without adding 900 new items with it. Just expansion.
    And texture, it needs texture, like pavement, dirt road, sidewalk, something other than the nothing it has now. It is seriously hard to decorate with just grass. Cool the content and add some city-builder fundamental options and items.

I’m happy for those getting a second chance at these items, but for those of us, who put in all the time and money (so many clams!) into making sure we got all those characters/items in time, are getting kinda screwed. The only two things I’m missing that I could possibly want are the record store and steroid stewie. One of those just happened, and the other I’ve asked repeatedly about and always get the “no plans to bring back the record store”. The only reason I even want either is so all my tasks are unlocked for my characters and steroid stewie is the only costume I’m missing. I guess I’m saying it would be cool if TinyCo gave those of us who had them already a little present, as we’ve put in a lot of effort on the game.
