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….I have to have the worst garbageman on the planet.  9 times out of 10 he doesn’t take the trash that’s in the bin.  And when he does he gets selective about what he takes.  So he’ll leave bags of trash in the middle of our driveway!  Seriously what the frak dude?!

WHAT THE DEUCE….what was with the Warehouse Raids?!  The Mob Rep completely stopped dropping on the last part cutting me out of at least 1500 Mob Rep….

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! 🙂

    So I missed the better part of 3-4 days of the event because of loading crashes, which I totally get was not TinyCo’s fault. But now I get to miss out on even more, because of a 24 hour timed event that includes a task that requires me to have already completed my third raid before I can even *start* working toward. A raid, mind you, that I would have completed already had I not been locked out of playing for 3-4 days because of the crashing issues.

    I cannot imagine a worse way to punish players for the game crashes short of just not fixing them at all.

  2. Once again a bad event

    Tnyco is throwing a lot of content at us and its just too much to handle at once. I mean the concept is fun but its kinda hard.

    I just doesn’t work to wait 4h on a mask to higher a goon that takes 1h which you need 2 of to clear a scout girl. (What did that girl ever do to you D: )

    The safehouse, casino and possible future thing is fun at the beginning but now it’s just stupid. I you have to get too much and it doesn’t work for freemium plqyers that have school or work.

    Next to that you have e to focus on questlines which is a lot of clearing this as that and you have to focus on characters. Once again clearing this and that. And for the tubas drop rarely. Oh and you have to focus on the golden truck which is meh since you need 6 goons and with the other goons its really hard to get 6 at a time.

    The prizes are OK. They are better than crafting. When I saw the personal prizes in was happy. But it doesn’t make sense to haveoa premium character skin as the big prize. That’s something you shouldn’t do.

    The leaderboard prizes are the worst. You have to collect so much mob rep that if you want the big prize don you have to spend clams.
    I missed out on 1 day and I’m now instead of 10000-15000. 15000+

    OK that’s still l good but I don’t need another skin! Who the hell uses skins?

    Now I’m glad that we are Able to get Cleveland’s Jr and diabeto. But I would rather have seen a Cleveland event with Cleveland Jr. But that’s just me.

  3. WTD, I now have 4 quests open that require luchadors…however none of the tasks or buildings to acquire luchador masks are unlocked…this is just poor, lazy, sloppy game design…add that to the multi-day crash lockout and I’m edging closer to the exit with this game. Of course, even if everything were going smoothly I still have no land available to put any of this new stuff on.

  4. Can TinyCo please please please use some of the previously aquired characters in their contests. Once you earn a new character, you NEVER need them again. It’s sad that I have so many nice characters from all the previous events and they just sit in my storage bar. I loved it when TinyCo would at least use 1 or 2 of them per event even if it was a little task, like freddy kruger’s day long task to get Christmas cookies. It made it worth it to get characters. Now every time I earn a character, I’m like “Great, 3 months of the same task to level this person up to 15, and then I’ll never see them again”.

  5. One thing I am curious about is how there are some players with 50,000+ mob rep already. The game came little more then a week ago. That is what grinds my gears…

    Other than that, it seems like this game is a bit more… boring or slow (can’t decide which) compared to the star trek event.

  6. WTD is with the new Timed Quest: Speed Feed Diabeto!

    The timing for the tasks doesn’t add up. You need 8 Luchadors = 8 hours. 12 Goons = 6 hours. = 14 hours. Plus, you would need to Defeat Cleveland’s Casino again? I’m on the 4th run through of Cleveland’s Casino, and just the first obstacle requires 5 Luchadors, bringing my total to 19 hours. And that before the next 3 Obstacles, two of which require more Luchadors.

    I suppose IF the quest triggered for a Freemium player who had already completed all the Obstacles except for the final one AND they had 9 Luchadors hired sitting around unused…then they might be able to accomplish this quest. Otherwise, the only way I can see anyone completing this quest is by spending Clams to speed up the tasks.

    Myself, I was doomed to fail from the start, because 1 hours before the quest dropped, I sent Diabeto on his 24 hour task to earn a Luchador mask. So, unless I paid to speed up that task…I have no chance of completing the final part of the quest.

    • Same wirh me. I have beenvon the very start of the 4th time running through the casjno. No chance here and after a bug that forced me to buy a cookie machine for 400 clams when I tapped on a normal building, I have no will at all to spend clams on that task. It is one of four tasks and you get 500 mob rep. Not worth it since I have to work with the small mount of clams left…

    • And this is why I stopped giving them my money. I’ve watched them increasingly try and push for more and more of our money on these events, and really the only reason why I’m still playing is because I can’t just drop something I’ve spent a good bit of money on in the past.

      I encourage everyone reading this to stop paying these people which is just encouraging them to continue to test the line to see how far they can push us until their business model breaks.

      I understand this is a business, they have servers/bandwidth and people to pay, but this is just plain extortion, playing on peoples’ need to complete things. Hell, they can’t even minimize the bugs this game produces, or even care enough to make sure their graphics are in line. Most of these things have gaps between object and road, I mean…seriously.

  8. Oh, and one more thing…you know what really grinds my gears? I finished the 3 main runs through the casino to win Geronimo’s Palace. The game crashed when I opened the case, and though I have progressed into the bonus runs, Geronimo’s Palace is nowhere to be seen. Not in my city. Not in my inventory. I wrote them on Friday when this happened and still have heard nothing.

    • Same here.. After I placed the palace on top left corner of my board the game crashed and when I re started it was gone but the casino bonus was completed. I wrote them on Friday and no response… Very weird because I usually get a response within 24 hrs. Really sucks since one of my current missions is to place the palace and upgrade the house.

  9. Also, not sure what else I can do. I’m in the game every 30 minutes, clicking this, collecting that, and somehow I just keep slipping down the ranks. I was as high as 260 for a while, and it feels like no matter what I do, my rank gets worse and worse.

  12. Honestly I’m just SO ******** sick of all those techniques: get a hundred of this, to activate another thing that gets you one of other thing of which you need another 100. Is the same ridiculousness from the star trek event only with different decorations. No reasonable time to get all the stuff needed and no logic to proceed – you need goons, but also luchadores, only 6 at a time… but you need 6 goons to clear the golden vans… and so there are no places to hire luchadores. the only way is paying for more spaces which is obviously out of proportion for a fair game.
    The crashing issue last week was a huge insult. It took them too long to repair, and it was irresponsible from them to have those problems with the way they want us to play. I was not even able to play a second round on the Consuela Safe House.. completed the roaches thing, and then it was gone!
    I’m tired of having to pay so much attention to a mobile game, that is not even working properly and that is demanding way so much play time; now everything is event after event, limited time or clam priced. Where is the regular game?? why is everything limited or event related?

  13. Yea, the leader board is very frustrating. When it started out I was around 1500. Now I am ranked back at 3600 and that’s setting timers and not missing a beat. There has to be some type of glitch that is happening that I don’t know about. I know a lot of people got to take advantage of those bushes before it was fixed but that has been fixed for awhile now. Am I missing something? It’s not like you can by mob rep with clams….hmmmm

    Like

    • I think it is the closeness that makes the slipping down inevitable – many freemium players would have been surprised to see (in the first week) themselves in the top two thousand. That gives an incentive to many to spend a few clams to speed things or buy a conveyor belt. Being so tight a small amount of luck (or strategy) can help – not upgrading villa until extra runs completed or having 8 hour tasks end just as they are demanded.

    Well, like an idiot who wanted to play my game while at work, I loaded it onto my android phone, not knowing about the iPad update thing. Still waiting for the freaking update in the App Store, COME ON, stuck squinting at my phone til then. And just got to Cleveland, cleared four cookie trucks, received zero golf balls despite them being labeled as uncommon? WTD! Still finishing all in part 1, so haven’t really gotten going on unlocking his other items, but this isn’t a good start…. I can’t wait to see how bad the tuba drops are for me, like the rest of you have been saying!

  19. Ugh, I used to be able to place in 500-700 in the leaderboards. I got knocked back down to 1,100-1,200 but I managed to get back in the day. A little disappointed as I doubt I will get the silver house, but I guess that is just because each day I was able to go back to a good spot. Just working to stay with the bronze,I’m noe finding I am getting further and further back each day. I’m currently around the 1,600 mark. I go into the game a lot, have some clam buildings which earn a decent number of fedoras and have all of the characters that can earn(apart from Cleveland Jr.), yet I still keep going further down. I guess those people are using clams to speed things up or buy more buildings. I don’t get how they can eanr more than I do in a day, in a few hours. Each day I end up lower on the boards, hopefully I can maintain a steady position once I clear the casino raids. I should finish the third one tomorrow.

  21. WTD there must be a lot of players out there with plenty of real life dollars to throw at this game. I’ve played pretty regularly, clam free, to get a whole 2270 hats. This puts me over 50k behind first place.

    And with the slowness of getting through those initial warehouse tasks and unlocking Diabeto, I didn’t even get a chance to go back and get the loads of mob rep promised to me.

    And seriously, the biggest WTD of all is still the complete lack of improvement in this game’s stability. Even after storing all my max level characters, and all decorations, I reckon I spent more time waiting for the game to load, and lag, than actually playing it.

  23. I see I’m not the only one with multiple gold trucks now, but this is turning into a major WTD. I just spent nearly 50 clams to speed up my goons (because I thought I was safe to fill my queue with Luchadors) because a gold truck popped up unexpectedly and I didn’t want to lose it. Having 4 more pop up less than an hour later feels like an insult. If TinyCo is changing the rules, I wish they would warn people.

    Oh, and still zero tubas. WTD.

    • Man this just happened to me! I had a Gold truck appear and only 3 goons. I had a Luchador in my que (only my second Luchador ever as I was limited on masks until I finished “All In.”) So I loaded up on Goons in the que. They finally all were ready so I sent them to clear the gold van. So I collect some houses and then go load my que with Luchadors as I finally had 4 Masks to do so and clear some quests out. Then I scroll back to my roads and 3 Gold Trucks are driving around! LOL Where did those come from! Now I cant possibly get any of those cause Im in Luchador Hell (I wont be rushing any ques with clams). Seemed like it waited til i filled the que to pop them. I sure hope this multi truck thing continues, now that I know about it. My first gold truck gave me no gloves So I am only at 10 so far after clearing 2 more trucks. If these do continue to pop like that I might reconsider not buyin the Prison as I had planned (Have to wait til i get the 25 clams prize from the boards to buy it anyway)
