This will be the FINAL week of the Event.
GUYS IN BLACK EVENT ENDS WEDNESDAY AUGUST 30th @3PM PACIFIC
Remember, we are pulling information live and updating the post as we can verify the stats in the game. Keep checking back to the post as we will put in the details as soon as we come across them in our games.
First up, the Basics
- Players will need to have completed Phase 3 Main Questline in order to proceed, Savior of the Suburbs.
- Players will need to be on the App Market Version 1.52.0 or higher in order to see the event. Note: Facebook and Amazon App Markets do have delays of up to 24+ hrs on their launches. Also, you may have to go directly to the App Page to force an update on some devices. http://www.tinyco.com/tinyco-games/family-guy/
- Google Play did get the update for issues with Daily Tasks and Android Users stuck, so make sure you updated to 1.52.2
- Players will need to have at LEAST District 3 Unlocked and Al’s complete.
- Players will only see this on the Mobile App Version (iOS, Google, Amazon, Facebook). NOT Windows Stand Alone

- Don’t have a TON of Tasks open in your Task Menu. If you have too many open, no new ones can arrive. (Keep it under 10). If you do not see new Tasks popping up, clear out some incomplete Tasks already on your List to make room for more

since im not making it to week 4 on time im just going to stay in week 3 and bank all my neurolizers for the alien character i wont defeat ming to enter faze 4 until im close to the deadline on flash gordon i still have 3 days left until he leaves hehehehe
LikeLike
Sounds like this phase may be outside the realm of possibility for me, I should have phase 3 finished today, but that’ll put me too far behind to get Ming for sure. I think I’ll make Quagmire my goal here then just finish off character quests and give it a rest til the next event. I’ve actually LOVED this event so far, and have gotten Worms, Edgar, Flash later today, and costumes for Peter, Lois, and Chris while spending less than 10 clams to speed up a task here and there:)

Hi RT – I sent three messages during the glitch asking for updates, all of which have been ignored. Yesterday, I sent a message outlining:
Three days loss of Peter = 6 – 9 Arrest Warrants
Five days loss of Jerome = 10 – 15 Arrest Warrants
Five days loss of Bonnie = ?? Hammers (I finally spent clams…grrr…to finish the Chris costume, ugh)
Five days loss of Joe = 20 – 25 nets
Three days loss of Meg = 4 – 6 Space Pilot Licenses attempts
Three days loss of Bruce = 4 – 6 Space Pilot Licenses attempts
Three days loss of Brian = 9 – 12 Handcuffs
And, once again, nothing…are they actively trying to make right by players, or is this just a futile attempt on my part? The loss of the Arrest Warrants has been the worse as it’s put me so far behind I have no shot at Ming…I did spend clams to finish Flash, but, at this point, my desire to spend anymore clams in the event is long gone…
Thanks for all your support!

Do me a favor, send a new message in from your game stating you were impacted by the “Android Lockout” and any details of what the impact was (like Characters locked in Building, missed Timer on XXX, etc). They are now on the look out for games impacted.

This week looks like more of a challenge at first glace.
But I’m pleasantly surprised with the event so far. For the first time in over a year I’ finished the first 3 weeks on time, got all the timed characters and made the leader board. And only sped up tasks with 5 or 10 clams for far.
Hopefully this is a sign for future events.

Anyone else having the issue that in fights almost always characters miss their hits. Have they boosted the miss chance that you need to be -very- lucky to actually get a hit (let alone a double hit)?
It seems enemies are also missing more frequently, but not that much.

Missing increased for me when I got Spacewoman Lois, until then I’d hardly missed, since then many characters miss

Indeed. For me as well around that time miss chance increased. I’ll ask support if that is a bug or a feature.

I love that you need 15 red robes, the only place to get them is battling Serleena, and it take 210, and she has 40 health. to finish her off. You can only use 3 characters, and the most health moist have is 6, so you can battle her with 18 health and 20 is the most life you have. Unless they come up with another way to access red robes, I am not seeing getting Ming. Then again, in the long run it doesn’t really matter, as this is the last week, so it is not as if he will be helpful at the end of the event, except for Tan Lines filler!
LikeLike
It’s going to be tough, but bare in mind you get 1 robe just for attacking her, and 8 if you manage to defeat her. But I agree it will be tough due to needing 5 Shears per attack, they should have kept it at 2

Serlena is active for me now – she shows 210 health and drops 8 robes, so will have to be defeated twice.

No you also get 1 Robe for each attack where you just chip away some of her health and don’t defeat her, so factor those in also. Still going to be tough mind you.

That does make it better, 75 shears will be tough but much more manageable than the 150 needed to beat her twice. Thanks for posting this and saving some of our sanity.

Are they communicating with y’all at all about the glitch? When I was spending lots of money I always got replies quickly, but now they don’t answer. I can’t do anything because key characters are trapped in the drunken clam since the daily task glitch has a character there. If I tap the check mark the game crashes.
I’d got nothing but the automated reply, no word on when I’ll get my characters back.
This is so frustrating!

Very nice that Ming the Merciless doesn’t have a timer, though it wouldn’t make sense anyways because there’s only 7 days left.
My only concern is how many robes Serleena drops. Every boss up until now have drop one special item required for the timer character, but Ming requires 15 of these robes, which is concerning because if Serleena doesn’t drop more than at least 3, it’s probably going to be very difficult to even get Ming if you consider that:
* Beetles drop the shear required to fight Serleena. They only drop 1 at a time.
* Serleena apparently requires 5.
* Beetles have 20 health and without spending clams, your only attacker until you get Quagmire’s costume is Chris, who only deals 6 damage at a time (meaning without crits it will cost 4 MiB Badges).
* And not even sure on how much health Serleena will have, but even though you can use every person from the event to fight her, she probably has a huge amount of health.
I mean more information will come soon, but right now P4 is looking like a bust unless you spent clams on characters/costumes/mystery boxes.

More than the Beetles drop Garden Sheers…

Oh in my game, it only showed that Beetles dropped shears and no one else. When I reloaded the game an hour later, it refreshed and showed that all the other enemies can drop shears.
LikeLike
So….Serleena has 210 health………and you need to use 5 shears…..what?
Granted they changed it so that all the enemies drop shears, but MiB Badges are still a Rare drop and half the enemies cost 2 MiB Badges so it’s going to be a REALLY SLOW GRIND just to beat Serleena even once (Ballchinians and Beetles cost 1 MiB badge, Weevils and Space bats cost 2).
Considering the huge health pool of Serleena, the 5-shear requirement, and the fact that you can actually miss attacks (I still can’t believe they actually made it so you can seriously miss attacks), I’ve just accepted the fact that I’ll possibly get Quagmire’s costume but will enver get Ming the Merciless.
As cool as it’d be to get another character from the Flash universe, it’s nearly impossible to get him without spending A LOT of clams (even rushing to unlock him will be a lot because the robes are 70 Clams a piece). On top of the MiB Badges, you also have to deal with the character cooldowns, and about half of them are a 6+ hour cooldown if you don’t have Revive Capsules.
But…..I will say that overall this event was actually very successful! Normally, Phase 2 and beyond of every event sucks and it becomes close to impossible to even progress and catch up without spending clams. In this event, it was actually very managable without spending a lot of clams (only time I spent clams was to rush actions) and there was surprisngly enough time to both unlock the Phase’s costumes (Agent Pee, Spacewoman Lois, Chris the Hawkman) and even clear the timed characters (Worms, Edgar the Bug, Flash Gordan). Even though P4 is virtually impossible to clear without spending clams, I’m honestly happy to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this event because it was actually possible to get the timed characters and finish the phase before it moved to the next one (kind of reminds me of the second event ever released: Comic-Con in Quahog).
