Mobster Event Crash Issue UPDATE!!

6/18 4PM EST: iOS Patch Update has hit. Download it to ensure you have all the fixes in your game before today’s content goes live. 

UPDATE 8:20PM EST: Patch Update hit my Google Play Market. For those that usually asks… it showed as a 44.74MB download on my device. 

(moved this up top so you can see it easier. 🙂  )

Hey there Mafioso!

Great news for all of those who have been waiting for a resolution from TinyCo on the ongoing Crash Issue that has been plaguing players for a few days.

A FIX IS COMING!!!

This is via the Family Guy: The Quest For Stuff Facebook Page. Family Guy Facebook Crash Issue Post

Many of you are also getting the emails they are trying to quickly get out to Players stating similar. So keep an eye on your App Markets for these changes to hit. We will try to Update as we see them too, but feel free to share with other Players as well when and how it impacts your game.

UPDATE: The Patch is LIVE in Android, that means it is there… so just give it time to propagate and actually show up to upgrade into your devices. Hopefully within the next hour or so. Hang in there… it’ll be there soon. Just keep checking back now and then. Look for Version 1.9.1 on Android.

    Mike Tyson? So badass (is that PC enough?) I HAD to get him! I decided to splash out but I kept getting a “Purchase timed out” error when trying to buy the 275 clan package. When it went through eventually (I think it was my 6th attempt) I got another “sorry, an error occurred” message where it asks for the Google login and password. A little more perseverance and I was able to go ahead but it seems there still are issues with the servers…

  7. Downloaded and installed the update. Game still crashes when i try and do the pinata obstacle (part 1 of the warehouse run 3) So ya still can’t progress in the event. Small improvement as the game does load and i was able to get to Ollieland without crashing. However since i am effectively blocked from progressing in the event.
    Can’t finish the warehouse, can’t unlock Diabeto, can’t continue with the other quest lines and can’t upgrade the mansion to unlock the week 2 content it does little to help me with the event. I have messaged tinyco to let them know, but not holding out much hope for catching up with the event as it has been days where all i can do is rob cookie trucks and the limited actions from characters to gain mob rep and cookies. Too bad as i was really enjoying the event before everything went sideways.

  8. Ok. I got the new update this afternoon. I installed it. I have been playing on the update for a few hours now.

Also, all the characters I sent on tasks a few minutes before, WERE NOT on tasks anymore, just walking around again. spooky… 🙂

  10. Bunny, how likely is it (based on all of your experience) that they will give those of us who missed out for 3-4 days of collecting some kind of compensation? I have dropped them a note asking exactly that, but I am concerned. Surely they would not punish us for something that was not even our fault. Any chance you could put in a good word for us about this? Thanks a bunch!

    • That’s all up to them. Star Trek they extended it a week. It’s really up to them to decide WHAT works. All I can suggest is reach out to them. Give them your thoughts and ideas. Don’t just say “fix it” … tell them how to fix it and why you feel it would be beneficial. Etc.

            • Yeah, but it is a little suspect that the top “leaders” are reaping the benefits of this “crash”. As if they, and them ONLY, are not seeing any affects of this disaster they call an event. You guys are doing great as usual, Bunny. Eat your Wheaties, you’ll need them. 🙂

        • Many people are not having crashing issues, so the #1 person with obviously a huge entertainment budget (well, anything is huge compared to my budget of $0 per week) might legitimately not be having any such trouble. Do the math and you’ll see that a big clam spender could indeed get those numbers by speeding up everything and buying loads of cookie/fedora generating machines.

          I’m not crashing myself, although I’m not upgrading the mansion until I hear that associated problems have been resolved. I’ll just take down Consuela’s lemon pledge empire again in the meantime… 🙂 I just love that she’s a kingpin in this event. Always knew there was more to her than it seemed.

      • I can’t see simply an extension working this time. With the Star Trek event it was simply a race against time to unlock and collect everything you wanted, and once you’d acheived all you wanted you could stop playing; however, as no-one will want to lose their ranking in this event, everyone will continue to play to the bitter end, so those handicapped by the crash still won’t be able to recover. I’d like to see a blanket gift of say, 5,000 fedoras and/or cookies given to all those affected to even things up a bit on top of extra time.

        Like

      • Yes of course. I did just that. And I did not ask for any extension, as that would not benefit me at all on the leaderboard, as I would still be 3-4 days behind the competetion. What I specifically asked them for was a fedora/cookie compensation in the amount equivalent to what I would have gathered the amount of days I was locked out. Considering I spent a good deal of actual money on cookie machines and other buildings to help build up initially, I could have already had another 200-250 fedoras in that time. I will see what they do. Thanks so much for all of your efforts in keeping up to date on the crash issues/patch. Since downloading the patch, I’ve not had any problems at all! Feels like I can breathe again 🙂

  16. I updated and noticed I need 4 Dog Food now when going through the warehouse a second time. Was it like this before? If so, this sucks for the fact only Mort can get Dog Food. It was already bad enough at 3.

    Everybody needs to bombard TinyCo with messages to add more options to get Dog Food, because only having one character for a task is unacceptable. Something like this should never be allowed. Everybody demand Brain, Bitch Brian, Vinny, Pet Store and Perlman’s Pets to be able to drop Dog Food.

    UPDATE: TinyCo added Goldman’s Pharmacy, but that’s still not enough.

  17. Update hit and got back in after 4 days… Has tinyco said anything about how they plan to help those of us affected by the issue catch up on the leaderboard, or is it just tough luck? I’m at 75000 when normally I’m a 2 hr player… I lost half of the week to this issue. Don’t get me wrong, I’m thrilled that we have the patch, but feel that I’ve gotten pushed back to where I can’t compete. Perhaps tinyco could have a sub leaderboard for those affected by the crash so we compete with each other who have all been similarly affected?

      Hotfix 1.9.1 is live on Android! If you are experiencing crashes on load, please update to the latest version and try logging in.

      IMPORTANT NOTE: If you play on multiple devices, you will ONLY be able to play on Android devices after updating to 1.9.1. Once the latest version releases on iOS and Amazon as well, you will be able to play across all devices as normal.

      We expect Hotfix 1.9.1 to release on iOS and Amazon in the next several days, pending review by each app store.

      Just saw this what does it mean?! Is it available or not?? I have android but use Amazon to download and its not there or in google play store, is there another place to get the patch??

      • It means the patch is ONLY live right now for Android (don’t see it on my device yet, but restarting to see if it will trigger)

        It also means you can’t play MULTIPLE devices on different Versions of the App. So you will NOT be able to play the updated Android Game on an iOS or Amazon Device until iOS and Amazon update to the same patch too.

        Hope that helps.

    Like

    • This is what I have found on that (as well as reports back from TinyCo on those that wrote in).

      The Mob Rep collects in two ways.
      1: The INSTANT you tap on the item to clear it, the totals go right to the Mob Rep. This is even BEFORE those lil icon images collect from your game. BAM! it’s there.

      2: After you tap on an item to clear it, the icon image is collect and THEN the total is added to the game. So you visually see the amount “floating” across the screen and into the counter.

      #1 is the main one causing Players to “Visually” think it is not adding, even though it is.

      I personally see both option #1 & #2 in my game. Tested it out many times. Both do happen, but either way I am getting the Mob Rep.

      Now there WAS some issues in the warehouse that created the totals to not be accurate, but that was an alternate issue that since has been patched. So if you watch your game and it is NOT #1 or #2, then please report it to them from your game so they can look into it individually.
