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?!
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! 🙂
REMEMBER: This is the ONLY place all that Venting and Frustration is allowed, so please Respect the Addicts Guidelines and post them ONLY here. They are always open, so you can use them at anytime. 24/7, 365 days a year. Help us by keeping the Vents/Rants off all the other helpful posts. 🙂
Just be respectful of others & be mindful of the language while commenting.
Here’s mine for this week:
–WHAT THE DEUCE… I REALLY need some New Land. My poor lil Quahog is bursting at the seams. Soon… I really hope soon.
–WHAT THE DEUCE… What’s with common human decency at Airports? Every time I travel I see the cruelest and rudest behavior to other human beings. Simple things like complaining that they got on the plane 3rd instead of 1st (behind 2 disabled people) just to get their “favorite spot”… ALL THE WAY IN THE BACK OF THE PLANE! ***rolls eyes***
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! 🙂

I need to WTD after reading mobster prize comments. WHY do some people constantly complain about anything & everything with this game?!! It is your choice to play, if you don’t like it, STOP playing!! It’s not like some horrible job you have to keep to feed your family!! I’m glad I don’t know these whiners in real life!
Here are a couple comments that make more sense:
“I won the horse head in the bed prize, but when I woke up this morning, my prize still wasn’t next to me!”
“I could design & do all the programming for this game for the millions of players across all the different platforms & fix all the glitches & provide spotless customer service ALL BY MYSELF! All before breakfast.”
“TinyCo really should cater just to me, a freemium player who never spends a dime, because I go to work everyday for fun only, just like they do!”
“The prizes should have been real money.”
“I swear if you don’t fix this game, I quit! And you won’t get anymore of my vague, obnoxious support questions ever again!”
OK, I think I’ve made my point. Thanks for letting me whine about the whiners. And ladies of FGA, you rock as always! Thx for all you do…you deserve a prize! Real horse head?? Anyone?? 😉

Done with this game. DONE. Absolutely NO support whatsoever…completely unacceptable.
EXCEPT, all the great input, advise FROM YOU LADIES!!!
Tc doesn’t seem to have ANY glitches when processing clam purchases…curious, bc actual game play during this mobster event was a disaster for an unreasonably large sector of the playing population. I know they use the excuse of, “oh so many tickets,” or “it’s the weekend,” but that’s garbage…TC knows how many players are active they & can certainly hire more individuals to spit out “canned” responses. See: https://www.helpshift.com/blog/tinyco-agent-customer-issues/
Unfortunately bought $9.99 clam package which included materials to hire goons. I hired the goons; rushed thru the queue w/my newly purchased clams, and…POOF! Bye clams, bye higheels, bye nunchucks, bye freshly hired goons…all a disappeared, a complete waste in a manner if minutes! And no recourse, assistance,nothing from TC. But hey, they wee busy, I’m sure counting all us suckers’ money…
So disappointed that all I got in response was “Sounds like a glitch in how our server saves your game progress. Thanks for playin!”

I’ve been playing TQFS since its inception more than a year ago now and I have to admit that I really liked this game, in fact I had a ton of fun with this game. However, I think the designers and creators have severely lost their direction because what began as a fun homage to the television series has been reduced to more frustration than it’s worth. That’s not to say anything about all the errors and bugs that aren’t worked out prior to launch, but the gameplay itself. Take the most recent mob event and even the star trek event. It used to be where weekly events were designed so it was possible to accomplish them before the week was up. Even if you were a freemium player, while it would take a lot more dedication, you could still do it. Now it seems like that’s not even possible even as a semi-premium to premium player. I didn’t accomplish half the tasks in the last event, nor did I unlock the bulk of the characters because of the asinine requirements they implemented. Because of that the flow of the game was horrendous, and I probably needed an extra 2 weeks to get done what was needed. I could look to the past and say that TinyCo typically recognized their errors and modified accordingly, but it seems they don’t even do that anymore. I hope that they are aware though that the way they’re running their game and the changes they’re making are only increasing irritation and causing them to lose players. I myself am the last of about a dozen close friends of mine that all played the game (all premium players). Most of them stopped after their frustration with the Star Trek event, while a few others and I stuck it out for one more – Although now we wish we hadn’t. The product that’s being put out is subpar, and feels like a desperate cash grab while they prepare for the discontinuation of their game. I wish i had the resilience to see this game to its conclusion especially after being around for so long, but alas… So good luck to those of you who are sticking it out. You have more patience than I.

WTD. I agree that the game has been really hard and frustrating to complete the last few events for freemium and even ‘semi-freemium’ players who sometimes spend several hundred clams to help unlock chars or speed up missions. Wouldn’t it be great for those who have built up tons of cash to buy some assistance? Like trade tqfs cash for clams? Call it the ‘Dr. Evil Deal’: $1,000,000 for 100 clams **pinky to mouth**. Tiny Co might have to set a limit like only up to 300 clams per event. But it would at least inspire those to keep collecting their money and building up their Quahog. And the possibility to get 1 premium char/bldg each event for free. Especially now with Consuela’s vacuum – it’s super easy to collect all.

I am an addict lol I started this game when the Star Trek event premiered, and I have been hooked. Yet I have my frustration, I seem have spent almost a 1,000 dollars on clams in just a few months and I’m at level 52 now. I like buying the characters and the buildings but I have no space. I am hanging buildings and “decos” off by the water and sand area lol I’m a bit upset that after you purchase a character, it’s only useful temporary and once the event is over, the character is useless. I’m lucky because my friend has had crashes and issues where buildings don’t drop items and characters won’t show up etc b/c she’s an android user and I’m an IOS user. I just want more space and less payouts for cool characters and buildings. Not everyone is rich (b/c I’m not), I’m simply an addict lol ps.

I enjoyed the game enough that I spent more than a little task money on it. Now, between being locked out for weeks with no solution in sight and no responsiveness from tinyco (except automated ones).
It deeply disappointed me that with a major Android issue locking out players left and right, they just pushed right on along with the next mini event.
Maybe the Android players don’t spend as much as the iOS players, so they’re just prioritizing what matters.
Maybe they’ve outsourced their tech support. It’s about on a par with my cable company and my cell service now.

I’m so grateful for your website, it helps me with so many unanswer questions then the help sections of the game. I’m also getting frustrated with the game like everyone else. I been playing for more then a year now, gangster weeks was one of the hardest challenge. It was the first time I ran out the time, I couldn’t collect all the costumes, and I spent over 600 clams to get Bonnie’s costume before the challenge expires. I was so disappointed. I felt they want us to spend money to buy the clams, where as I didn’t before and I can just get by as a regular player. I will still keep on playing, but will be more disappointed when I can’t finish challenges… 😦

I’m playing for nearly a year now and im disappointed in how it evolved.
I get to know this game as a great game, it was all other than perfect, but tiny had an ear for their customers. When something was going wrong, they looked into it, wrote an answer to you and changed it. Like a lot of droprates during Events. But i got the Feeling that since the star Trek Event it get worse. After Star Trek i wasn’t able to end a Event proper. And i’m no freemium Player. I buy all new characters and some chests, maybe spend 1or 2 clams to end a quest in time.
But since like i said all get worse. No event ended proper. Droprates where way worser than described. Ongoing chrashes with its peek, where i was locked out the game for about 4-5 days. Premium Chars i bought wasn’t a help because they started to drop quest items after a week. I was invited to the time challenges but stand no Chance because i was about one week behind so that i did not have the costumes/characters quests that are needed for it. I wrote several tickets during the event, most of them got no reply, only after a week an automated if the Problem is still ongoing. And to my last ticket where i asked for a event Extension and one or to other things i got only the reply that it is not planned.
I got SO many issues during the mobster event ( that it would took me a long time to make a list) and i feel unperceived than ever before. So this was the last time i spend real Money on this game. (I own most of all characters that are in the game, i bought in the best of event all missing characters that i could get.)
At the Moment i’m very disappointed…

I have been playing this game since day two and things have definitely changed in the past year. It doesn’t feel like the same game anymore, and Tinyco’s customer service has certainly changed. I messaged them twice during the last event about crashes, missing clams, and glitches with the game. The first message was ignored and I finally got a response back after a week on the second one. The only part of my detailed message they responded to was the game crashing, and that was just the automated response of resetting the game. No mention of refunding my lost clams or responding to the various glitches. Each event seems like a major grind with little payout, and for freemium/ish players it is impossible to complete events. I understand the frustration levels and why people are ditching this game. I’m not walking away but I will take a step back. I’ll play when they release new districts since they have no time limits, or if they have an event I just can’t stay away from (Star Wars, Comic-Con pt.2). This seems to be the only way I can go back to enjoying this game.

Thank you for your post, I appreciate your input.
I haven’t enjoyed the game as much as I was before either so I’m thinking that your new approach to the game i.e. playing when new districts are released or during a special event that somehow resonates is a great idea. If/when I am able to play on my Android again I’m going to use your approach with the hope that I return to enjoying the game like I once did.

I’ve spent quite some money on previous premium stuff (primarily characters, not buildings), but since they’re basically not having a lasting value by providing benefits in the long run (i.e. drop stuff in later events), I refuse to continue paying.

That is VERY odd. His 6hr task to clear them unlocked immediately with him, so no need to level him up or anything special like that. All that is required for him to use the Task is for their to be a Cougars in town that he can go “shake it” for. Satisfy Feisty Cougar is the task name. Are you going to his personal task list? Or just tapping on the Cougars and just seeing Peter’s Image? Because only Peter’s Icon shows up if you tap on them, but he can still be sent. If the task is not on his personal task list… there is something else going on with your game. May want to try some basics.

WTD…Lets do the obvious comparison to TSTO and talk about LAND. The lack of land in this game has basically forced me to render my town as a miss-mash of cluttered districts and areas where buildings are piled so close together, with no roads leading to them, that it resembles a favela more than a city. TinyCo seems hell bent on cranking out event after event, which would be an awesome thing IF they provided the land for us to keep up with. I’ve learned to not grow fond of anything I accumulate, knowing that I will have to eventually have to get rid of it to make room for some other required structure. I honestly would need twice the land to be able to place everything I have accumulated. I feel like a hoarder living in a rental unit.
One of the great things about TSTO is that it allows you to not only accumulate new buildings, but actually leaves you space to add some landscaping and style to your towns. It excels in that area where as TQFS seems less interested in encouraging users to decorate their towns with anything other than the requisite buildings needed to finish quests. Sure, they provide plenty of decorations (and some very cool ones, at that!) but as long as they continue to starve users of land, playing this game is going to be an exercise in real estate management, which equates to “no fun”.
Also, get with the program already, with neighbor integration. Has that concept been completely scrapped?

Seems I’m not alone in the “goodbye” crowd after that last event. I sent TinyCo an in-game comment on what they needed to do to win me back, but the response I got was an unrelated comment regarding game crashing. Thanks. Pretty sure they’re not going to listen to my (any?) constructive feedback.
The comments, generally speaking:
– find a different way to handle events from the now normal “use same characters/item (goons, for example) for up to 4 different required things at once”
– why on earth have we moved from a districts/story with land expansion game to a special event money grab game?
– allow characters purchased using clams to have some use beyond coins (which are useless now with no districts requiring coins, only the flavor of the month event currency)
– fix the drop rates. a 1 in 6 “common” drop and 1 in 10 “uncommon” drop, measured over a week, are inadequate. items needed for main story progression (in events, not districts) should be “always”…always. It should not be a matter of luck to move the story forward. Add number needed, increase number who get drops, whatever. Luck of the draw is no way to play.
I’ll keep checking here to see if they do anything about it, but I burned my last bit of clams and removed the game for now.

Since the beginning of this year I’ve been dissatisfied with the game. Even if I checked in every 1h, I couldn’t get all the characters of the events, have spent some clams for premium characters that became useless after their events. Have stored all but the relevant/essential characters and buildings during events to avoid crashes.. The mobster event was a great theory, fun in the beginning, but frustrating since the tuba issue. I’ve contacted TinyCo., expressed my frustrations and points of view and my decision of leaving the game if the Mobster event would not have extended. Well, it wasn’t, and I’m out. Since then, I realized that what I’ll really miss is your help, care and patience, girls. The game was not fun by itself, it was nice to have this extra-game interaction here. A place to find tips, to share complaints, strategy, etc.
Keep up the good work! And, again, thank you very much!

I started nuking all buildings then starting the new quest, put out any buildings if needed and putting all characters in inventory unless they are needed for the current quest. Also, I have a “bank farm” for $$. Banks cost $500 and pay $45/8hr. 12 collects and they are all profit, I have about 50 banks. I got bank! Just sayin.

WtD is up with the way the game is programmed into a massive unplayable resource hog? This is the quest for stuff..but hide it in your inventory forever lest it render the game unplayable.
Simpsons game has far more land, apparently no limit of buildings and characters and items on screen at once, zero lag. Tinyco saying “box all that cool stuff you earned” is way out of line.
WtD is up with that? Is it because when they wrote the base code they never tested it with ever expanding land and items to ensure resources were handled in an adequate way? They just assumed the initial blocks and items worked so no matter how much was added it would work forever?
Is that why we rarely get more land, because they know it may break the limits of the game? Can it even be fixed without rewriting the entire base code of the game?

Just a side note, cuz we write on TSTO too… there IS a limit in TSTO. Just go back to last years posts when I pushed my “Design” towns past the 4500 Limit TSTO warning. I was locked out of my game for 3 months until a tech was able to roll my game back far enough to let them and me back in. I lost a LOT of items. Not all they could retrieve. Anyone playing the TSTO game that reaches 4500 (buildings and decos) will start to get the Limit error and if pushed, the game starts glitching… lagging… lots of funny and odd things happening like “shattered” buildings in place of fountains and Characters in place of bushes… then it starts to lock people out, first your neighbors then you. 😉
I know it took TSTO over a year to add any land and now they’ve added 3 additional strips. I just hope we get land in FG soon too. I want to design but got no room. 😉

I just started playing the Simpsons game a few weeks ago, and am experiencing sticker shock with the current high price of land and water and those little boardwalk tiles for Squidport that take gobs of time to create… Family Guy land gets really expensive and time-consuming also after a few weeks in old districts (I’m just about ready to clear the amusement park block to get Stewie, although I’m tempted to leave the brat there amongst the burning debris). But I suppose that’s motivation to keep collecting cash. Family Guy makes me feel so 1%, making the little people work so hard just so I can buy new buildings to make money so I can buy more land to put more buildings on it and make more money and buy more land…

Lol. TSTO land has gotten really pricey too. For a new player just earning it will seem insane. Just wait til you get to the outer edges. Half a million up to 1.5 & 2 million. They’re set up intentionally that way in both games. Meant to take time. Another item for you to “keep busy”. So by the time you reach them you’ll hopefully have the funds to buy them. 😉
Difference is TSTO released about same amount of buildings in 3 years that TinyCo released in one… so we’re feeling the land crunch.
TSTO stopped releasing land for a year than just last few months dropped 3 new strip of land on us.

Sorry, it’s all over for me now. Got as far as mob Lois, no Bonnie, no promoter Cleveland, obviously no Tricia (20k cookies?!)
This crashing and inability to log in really was the last straw, well that and the apparently refusal by TinyCo to acknowledge the issue. Although the almost impossible tasks possibly would have pushed me over the edge anyway.
Sure, every system has its ups and downs, but TinyCo did nothing. They could so easily have stopped the clock and kept the event running while they sorted their issues, until they’d made sure everyone was back in the game.
Instead, for anyone locked out: “TOUGH”. Well, I don’t need telling twice…

My wtd is that I’ve been playing from the start, and I have paid for every premium character up until July 2. Every since July 2, I have been unable to get into the game! I would really like to play! Also, I would really like to know what will happen for everyone that missed half of week 4 content and all of week 5 content!! I had Tricia and Louis done, I just needed to save up the cookies. I was working on that when I lost all ability to play. Now on top of STILL not being able to get into the game, I hear there is another event that I have zero ability to play! What the deuce tinyco!! This is totally unfair!! Stop releasing new content while there is a major glitch preventing a good chunk of your freemium and premium players from actually playing the game!!

I barely got to progress in the mob event because my game crashes every 30 seconds. I have sent numerous emails to support with no response or help from them. They obviously have no idea what they are doing all they care about is being able to start the next event not fixing the problems that have been going on for months. GET IT TOGETHER TINYCO!!!!!!

I have a solution to the chronic land shortage:
Just let us pile buildings on top of each other, as already is done for the workers’ cabins. Instant doubling, tripling, or quadrupling of land area. Also doubling, tripling, or quadrupling of insurance premiums for Quahogians to cover injuries from falling buildings, but can’t have everything.
You’re welcome. (TinyCo: you may pay me in clams).

It would be a dramatic thing if buildings could be rotated to face four directions instead of just two. Yes, it would require more work on the part of tinyCO to design the backs of buildings but it would improve all of our lives/Quohogs.

Brittany, they can’t get an event to play without issues and you want 360 degree rotating buildings?! I like your idea, but I think making the game playable should be their priority. Just reading the posts here, I’m not the only disappointed/disenchanted player.
