Circus is Still In Town….

UPDATE 1:35pm EST: We just received word direct from TinyCo that this will end at 3pm EST (noon PST).  So in just under 1.5hrs from now.  So if you have any last minute collecting to do get those clowns while you still can.  

Good Morning Clammers,

Well after a tense weekend and the constant signs of Ends Sunday I fully expected to wake up this morning to a Clown Free Quahog…..however this is not the case.  It looks like the circus is still in town!

So if you haven’t yet unlocked Pee Pants you still have time to get those last minute clowns to drop pies and horns!

Now…BEFORE you guys start to yell at me (cause I know there are some of you that spent clams to get that last little bit because you were afraid you wouldn’t get it)…we FULLY expected (just like you) for this event to end last night (the poll question post was written ahead of time and scheduled for this morning).  It looks like this was something that was extended at the last minute, perhaps because of your feedback on the Good, the Bad and the Not So Pretty.  Things like this are why we always encourage you NOT to spend clams to speed things up.  You never know what might happen with events like this.

At this point I don’t know when they will disappear.  I’m working on trying to find that out, but keep in mind I’m on the East Coast of the US and TinyCo is on the West Coast (3hrs behind) so it might take a little bit for an answer to come back as it’s not even 6am there yet.  So right now all I can say is just keep playing and see what happens.

What Happens After I’ve Collected the 10 Clowns?

Hello There Clammers!

Seeing lots of questions pop up in the comments and on Facebook about what happens once you’ve cleared the 10 required clowns for the task with Chris.  Do the clowns stop appearing?  Will you be able to earn all the required horns and pies?  Do you have to buy premium?  Why is TinyCo Forcing you to spend clams?  And my personal favorite…Why Don’t they give us MORE free clams?!  So let’s take a look at all of these and more….I promise it’s not as bad as it may seem.

What’s the Deal with the Clowns?

Good Morning Clammers!

So we’ve been seeing a few things back and forth in the comments over concern about collecting all the “stuff” to unlock the Pee Pants Inebriated Hobo Clown costume for Peter.  With an event end time set for Sunday 5/4 and so many of each item to get many of you are worried it’s impossible to acquire everything, solely by playing freemium, by the time the event ends.  Well let’s break it all down for you….

iOS Update

Hey There Clammers!

Just wanted to let you all know the iOS update has FINALLY hit the Apple Market.  So head over to your app store and download it…right NOW!  Go ahead…do it now, we’ll wait….

Did you download it yet?  😉

This should be the glitch fix many of you have been waiting for, so download it and let us know if it corrects your issues!

App Store Update AND Downed Server

Hello There Questers!

A few things going on with the game right now…

First up…an update has hit the app store.  I know for a fact this is on Android, but I can’t verify on iOS…so iOS users help us out and let me know if you got a little update in your store today.  Update: Thanks to our awesome readers…there is currently no iOS update.  So this is an Android only update.  So be sure to check out your app store and download the newest version:

2014-04-16 22.29.07

This is a glitch fix, as they’re still working out all of the bugs in the games.  However, the social aspect is STILL disabled…

2014-04-15 20.27.17 (1)

Second thing…it appears the servers are down right now.  Give it a little bit of time if you’re having issues getting on and try again shortly.  It’s possible they’re running tests on the servers for future glitch fixes 🙂

2014-04-16 23.15.57

UPDATE Looks like the servers are back up! 🙂

UPDATE 8:45pm EST: Looks like they’re back down again.  I think it’ll be a little bit of up and down tonight.  So if you have issues getting in just sit tight and try again in 10 min 🙂

UPDATE 9:30pm EST: Ok servers are still doing a little up and down movement on us, BUT we were able to confirm that 1hr tasks for the following characters are now 1m tasks (earn the 1m rate of $5).  This eliminates the 1hr task for these characters, so you’ll no longer have a 1hr option in the task box:
Bonnie
Bruce
Mort
Lois
Joe
Quagmire’s 30m “raid panties” task is now 1m…he still has a 1hr task.

Herbert and Jerome have not been changed…but that could change.  We’ll keep you updated as we know more.

This adjustment is great, it’ll help you earn more money quicker!  I will update the How to Earn Money Faster post to reflect these changes!

App Store Update: Possible Glitch Fix?

Update: This update is for Android users only.  And we’re hearing word that it is in fact the Chris’ Socks glitch many users were experiencing yesterday.  They’re still working on the Bruce taking over the world glitch, so it’s important that if you’re experiencing the glitch to send them your info.  Check out Bunny’s post here for what to send them and how to send it.  

UPDATE 4-12 11PM EST from Bunny
Just got word from TinyCo that they are still hard at work on Chris’ Socks issue for iOS players. Hang in there while they complete the process and get a Patch out. 

Hello there Clammers!

This morning I noticed a little update in our App Stores for TQFS!  Check your app stores for an update, perhaps this is a glitch fix for Bruce?  Waiting for confirmation from our Friends at TinyCo, but check out the update and see if it cures any of the glitchs you’ve been experiencing!

We know they were working on a patch for the Chris’ Socks glitch…so perhaps this is the patch?  Check it out and let us know!

Quest for Stuff FAQ

NEW ASSET -- The Quest For Stuff Title Art

Hello there Clammers!  (ok sorry still working on a name with this game)

Well here we are, on the eve of the the much anticipated Family Guy Game: The Quest for Stuff released date!  Woo-hoo!  It won’t be long now and we’ll all be busy rebuilding Quahog!  So, with the release date upon us I thought now would be a good time to go over some general FAQ’s we’ve seen come up in the comments, in email & on Facebook about the game and what the expect.  So with out further ado let’s get right into it….

What Happened to Quahog?  How Did It Get Destroyed?
Well, the answer should be revealed in the first few seconds of playing the game BUT (just like the show) Peter gets into yet another fight with Ernie the Giant Chicken.  Here’s the game description from the folks at TinyCo:
“The game story: Peter and Ernie The Giant Chicken have gotten into another epic battle. As a result of their fight, Quahog has been destroyed and chaos ensued. It’s the player’s job to rebuild  the town.”

And here’s a little more from their official press release:
“FAMILY GUY: The Quest for Stuff is a free-to-play mobile game, developed by TinyCo in conjunction with Fox Digital Entertainment and Fuzzy Door. It will feature an all-new, original story influenced by the show’s 200+ episode catalogue as well as current events. The story begins as Peter and the Ernie the Giant Chicken get into another epic battle, causing a truck full of chickens to crash into the Drunken Clam and creating a city-wide fire that burns down Quahog. FAMILY GUY fanatics can join Peter as he rallies his friends and family to help rebuild the city from scratch.”

What Will Game Play Be Like?  What Can We Expect?
Here’s the game play description we’ve been given from the folks at TinyCo:
Gameplay: With the town of Quahog in ruins, you need to help Peter rally all your favorite FAMILY GUY characters (even Meg) to rebuild the town and restore order. Your actions can trigger events that affect the entire town, and even the world. Stop alien invasions, religious cults and more calamities from further destroying Quahog!
● Help Peter realize his lifelong dream of becoming a pirate
● Quagmire searches for the fabled Gold Digger Island
● Travel through the multiverse with Stewie and Brian
● Get revenge on the Giant Chicken
● Survive Quahog’s Running of the Bulls thanks to Mayor West
As you venture through Quahog, you’ll unlock bonus character outfits and interact with all your favorite characters (with some celebrity cameos). Stop waiting a whole week for new FAMILY GUY jokes – get your daily FAMILY GUY fix on your mobile device.”

I Played On BETA, Any Word If My Progress Will Carry Over?
From what we’ve seen, and been told, your progress should carry over (as long as you’ve created an account) when you download the new game and sign in.  However, nothing is official on this yet.  But it should all carry over.  If you have trouble with it contact TinyCo and see if they can help you move it…remember you have to have created an account for it.

What App Stores Will It Be Launching In?
As of right now there are only plans for Android and iOS on April 10th.  Unfortunately, we have gotten word from TinyCo that there is not yet a launch date for Kindle.

What Can We Expect From The Addicts Crew When The Game Launches? 
We’ve been hard at work over the last month + to setup pages full of resources you’ll need in the game.  However, the information we used was all based on the BETA version of the game (thanks to our friends who had access to the BETA testing for sending us screenshots!), so we won’t know what, if anything, needs to be changed until the official game launch.

So because of that once the game launches we’ll be all over it BUT the information resource pages won’t be available until we can verify that the pricing, buildings, characters etc all made it into the actual game.  So give us a little bit, once the game launches, to play the game along with you and verify that the info is accurate.  Once we can verify it we’ll connect all of the pages/posts created to the menu links at the top.

Make sense?  If not just follow us tomorrow and we’ll keep you up to date in real time 🙂

Ok Questers (better?  Or do you guys like Clammers better?) that’s it from me for now, but be sure to keep checking back at FamilyGuyAddicts for all the details of the launch!
