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 would like a Cancel Character on Task Feature added to the game. Would help save me some time and Clams from speeding.
–WHAT THE DEUCE… Airlines… AGAIN!! I have been delayed before due to weather, I get that. No problem waiting or making adjustments because Mother Nature flipped out. But if YOUR Airlines internal system is “on the fritz” due to a merger and has a hold of my tickets because one of YOUR reps messed up on the change so I can’t get on my flights or switch to anymore without “special override authorizations” not available til the next day… don’t you think that is IS your fault (not the weather) I am stranded at an airport for 24hrs? No… this is NOT a weather related issue… as stated by 12 different Supervisors and Managers at your Main Office, but please… feel free to keep blaming the weather and stating because of the weather I have to sleep in the airport while you “figure out” what to do with me and offer no help at all. AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!
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! 🙂
Family Guy Addicts 
I’m still not over getting so royally screwed by not getting my characters and skins from mobster as well as having to miss all but one day of the stripper event. I understand that extending the mobster event would’ve only helped some, in that all the lucky fish poops that didn’t get booted would still be fighting to hang onto their spot on the leader board, but they could’ve at least extended the stripper event for us. This has been handled ridiculously poorly. I’m not even playing right now due to a combination of not having anything to play for (already have the fat suits) and sheer frustration at Tinyco for not taking care of players that dump 100s of dollars into this thing. I’d save money by going back to WoW, which I’m sure all would agree is loss more immersive and entertaining…

What the duece? I just noticed that the game and its data is taking up over 2gb of space on my device! I’m willing to bet that is all resources from every old event since day one. Can you guys work on something to purge old event resources at the end of the event to free up storage space?

So is this the exciting new content that prevented them extending the Mob event? Because: lame. I’m barely checking my game twice a day now, which I guess is helping my resolve not to spend money again (and is easing me out of addiction completely).

WTD @ Tiny Co
After being locked out of the Mob event for a whole week & the Magic Mike event for another whole week they said they won’t compensate for missed items (Characters/skins,etc.) some of which I was very close to getting!
I have been playing since day one & i use to have all non clam content.
Also they say they are working to make sure it doesn’t happen again. How am I supposed to have confidence in that, when it seems to happen a lot.
Even EA which doesn’t have good customer service is better that this. They have provided compensation for much more minor log in issues than this one was.
And we need more LAND!

Selling stuff from the inventory would be great. I got almost everything in there and it takes me very long to find something then it brings me back to the beginning of stuff in the inventory list when I go back. This wouldn’t happen if we HAD MORE LAND to place our stuff in!!! WTD. Thank you 😜

TinyCo. Please, PLEASE add a feature that cycles the characters through in a complete rotation, in the Task selection screen.
What I mean by this, is perhaps I don’t want to send Peter on a task for some reason. However, if I forego selecting him and assign the next character, then Peter pops up again as the next choice. He should, in fact, be pushed to the end of the line as to allow the player to continue cycling through the remaining characters.
This is extremely unintuitive and annoying, especially if I am trying to cycle through players to get to one specific player.
Oh yeah…and More land please.
Thanks.

I like this suggestion, and would like to add a similar request for the costume choices to loop. For example, Peter has 6,000 skins, and when I get to the end, I’d like it to circle back to regular Peter, not make me go backwards through all 6,000 skins again.

WTD! I got Cupid during the Valentine’s event so I have had him about 5 months. Every time I see him free, I send hom on tasks, usually longer ones, but now lately shorter ones too in order to get him to level up quicker but he is still only level 13. I have leveled many characters who came way after Cupid to max, but Cupid just does not want to level up anymore.
Also, the last days of Mobster-event I was running at rank just better than 10,000. Then at the end I used up all my cookies, that I had previously only used for things I needed so I had quite a few saved up, and jumped up to rank 7500. I realized that many other people would do things last minute too but I was hoping being ranked better than 10000 when the last ranking was updated and then having so many cookies saved up, it would have been enough, but it wasn’t 😦 It would be really nice to find out how close I was. Now all I know is that I finished between 10001 an 50000.

The Quest For Stuff is becoming more The Quest For Clams.
The recent Magic Mike had you get stuff for strippervPeter but then the stuff for stripper Jerome was ridiculous. 9 pieces of money that take 6 hours at a time for Peter to obtain yet the quest lines for Peter have him performing activities for most of the waking day. I ended up with 6 out of 9 before the event finished.
Other options were to spend clams to bypass the material drop or spend clams to buy Magic Mike. The timing to get stuff in this and the recent Fatfather event seem to be way off that you can’t obtain the extra characters/skins unless you spend money on clams.
Same with the recent long comic con prize boxes – in game money for a chance for a building but clams if you want characters. Of course we want characters but buildings as prizes, seriously? How you ever watched Big? Even Tom Hanks as a kid knew that a transformer than could turn into a building wasn’t fun because how can you play with a building.
/end rant
LikeLike
Okay, I’m sorry but stripper Jerome was ridiculously easy to get. Not as easy as firefighter Seamus perhaps, but still very easy like almost all skins during mini events. And besides for the fact that many people were locked out of the game during the mobster event, myself included, it wasn’t that much harder than past events. I feel for those locked out and I know I missed out on bonnie because of it, but I also know that if I want locked out I’d have gotten her and therfore gotten everything.
Overall, my point is I want mob wife bonnie. I know that has nothing to do with what I wrote but still I want her now! Muhhh

WTF I’ve got nothing to do because im not willing to pay 125clams for forklift Peter!! Why can’t they implement an earn or buy system with premium characters.

Also……….. GIVE US MORE LAND!!!!!!
2 events worth of stuff without so much as a single block of extra space to squeeze it all onto. I’ve resorted to having a special area at the bottom of my town that houses all the event buildings/junk while it’s active then once the event is finished they all get put away to make space fore the next one……kinda defeats the idea of earning them really.

Any clue where it goes? I inventoried it and now can’t find it any where. And I spent like a half hour looking through the “all”, “building” and “deco” tabs before I wrote this just to be sure. I doubt we will ever need it again so it probably isn’t that big of a deal. I had an area where I put things that didn’t pay out clams but were needed for character tasks (larping forest, flower bush, bake sale stand, etc.) or couldn’t be inventoried (like the brewery) and I inventoried all of them since all of those characters are inventoried. Now I have some more room. Is it like the perfume factory that just disappears since it is no longer needed? Should I message from my game in case it is ever needed for another district (Hello Angela and Opie!)?

WTD! You spend clams–sometimes hundreds of clams–on buildings for special event payouts, and when the event ends, they payout coins like regular buildings? If we’re going to spend real $$ IMO they should have long term or permanent benefits beyond the cosmetic. For example, the cookie conveyor belts payout so little in coins when they cost mucho clams. Those cookie payouts lasted for only a few weeks. Sure they resulted in lots of benefits for the mobster event; I LOVE my cherry trees, golden cranes, etc., and especially my bronze level prizes; however, I’m still working on clearing land and the Brewery tasks/items. I need every coin I can get 😆. On the coin purchased end of the spectrum: what’s with the cheap $1 per 4 hours payout for the Cougar Couture? That building cost $5000. WTD? It’s a great building, but sheesh! I love this game… I’m so glad I have such minor deuces. Oh wait, big deuce, expanding the need to cancel a task, why can’t I go to one button and get a run-down of every character’s time bar, task, and location similar to tapping a Building? I don’t want to have to go in and out of FaceSpace looking for multiple characters or tap every possible building. Deuce the what!
