    There are apparently a load of celebrities involved as characters.

    I'll try to avoid big spoilers.

    If you restore the three buildings within three days, you get a space ship. I'm assuming it will reset for Android. Currently restoring the final building so will get the space ship assuming I don't forget to log in.

    Nerds instead of mummies. They occasionally drop items as well as event currency which is a nice addition. Clams too but a lot rarer.

    It lasts about six weeks and the final prize is 100,000 so it seems do-able. At least more do-able than the previous event.

    If you go into facespace on android, the comic con celebs are there in silhouettes.
    9 in total :eek:

    EDIT: Whoops, I mean 7. 4+3=7 and not 9 :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 870 ✭✭✭pedatron


    I updated the game on my ipad and my HTC One has also appeared to update as well. I can see the new buildings and the characters walking around.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,115 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    just unlocked
    Patrick Stewart
    . his quest consists of one hour task for him and 4 hour task for Bruce. I sent Bruce for 20 hour task 4 hours ago:(

    I sent Peter on an 8 hour task then unlocked the outfit 10 minutes later! Was expecting a 12 hour build, not 10 minutes :pac:

    Son of a bitch... $25000 and 1000blam gone for carter and Patrick Stewart! :(

    Does the convention centre do anything special when unlocked?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead

    Pays out blams like the other two. Quagmire has a task in it but I keep forgetting because I'm on a different costume and only remember after I send him out again. Assuming others will use it too.
    10 clams from a task too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Quagmire's Watch Netchix task has been changed from 12 to 20 hours. Annoying since you need it for Stewie.

    I can only find tasks for Quagmire on one costume. :confused:

    I have 4/5 characters that have no tasks at all, it's a pain in the ass. I'm hoping there's another glitch with comic con.

    Am I missing something? I have no update for the ComicCon thing (android)

    It's not released for android yet! Check Your app store tomorrow for an update.

    We can join the fun of ComicCon then!

    The blueprints were moved to the main outfit and changed from 12 to 20 hours. It used to be on the bathrobe costume.

    Got Carter today. Need one more pizza for my first celebrity. Another one is released on Friday so I seem to be on track. Still need 15 blue prints and 5 rods for Stewie. Might have him for Christmas.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,173 ✭✭✭cableguy.ie


    I had more trouble with the banana skins to unlock pb+j Brian so to unlock stewie then the blueprints.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,512 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Event has begun for droid users! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple


    Just started the event today on android up to nearly 300 Blam in 2 hours and have the Phone Booth unlocked so far

    But still working on unlocking Stewie just need 7 more blue prints and 6 more Plutonium and thats it and will have all of the last update buildings and everything is done.

    The amount of jobs that are coming your way! Don't worry about having everything done that's just not gonna happen soon! I've just forgotten stewie for now and am trying to unlock as many bonus characters from this timed content as possible. I have Patrick Stewart finished so far and have another almost released off a flag pole I think!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    Having to zap these tentacle stewie's off building has already got annoying. He's covered my town, the gun only charges every six hours and characters can't do tasks in these buildings.

    Also 5,000 to unlock the flag pole guy, **** that!

    flagpole guy? I think I missed something....

    one of the celebs, can't think of his name but he's stuck on the flag pole that you've to repair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭whomitconcerns


    10 blueprints and 5 plutoniums for Stewie..taking ages...
    3 bananaskins for PB&J Brian
    6 drinks and 3 nails for captain hammered...
    14 pizzas and 5 books for Patrick Stewart..

    very annoying setting a 20 hr task a few days in a row and getting no drops from it....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,115 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin

    So so frustrating. Not only is he stopping you completing tasks related to the comic con stuff he's stopping you do all types of tasks. Six hour recharge of the gun is taking the piss. These tasks take long enough already without this added bollixology!

    Some people will be annoyed its not a Blam earning building to make up for the week late start on android.

    Hopefully the costume task will be blam earning!

    What do you do to have so much?! I have just over 8000 but I'm on iOS

    Fcuk me, I only have 2800 :pac:


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I'm at around 4200 or so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,115 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    I'm on 10601 blams on the iOS. I just send everyone on 4 hour tasks during the day


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭whomitconcerns


    So I have 3490 but v according to that calendar should have over 7k... So most of us will miss the 100k it seems already

    I wouldn't rely on that calendar. Like the last event they will probably double the earnings of characters or add items that will produce blams

    That Stewie tentacle monster thing is getting to be a little annoying already.

    Only a little?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Yeah, I'm understating that one all right. At least the gun charges in 4 hours, rather than the 6 that was mentioned here before, but even so; small comfort.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭whomitconcerns


    Havent seen tentacle stewie yet. Just got hammered Petter lay night though. Guess he comes soon?...

    Edit: He just arrived...4hrs per zap...ffs as others have said...15 times in 96 hrs if i dont want to buy anything..great :P

    On flip side..I nearly have P Stewart and have given up on stewie except for the people without blam tasks..they can stick with him.

    Looking at that iOS calendar and I'm not going to come close. I should be about the 24,000 mark. I'm just under 9,000. No chance.

    Tip. If you have a battery wait until the gun has recharged before using it, if you use the battery the recharge timer is reset to 4hours.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,115 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    From Family guy: The Quest for Stuff Facebook Page
    In response to player feedback, we have made the following changes to help you defeat Latcher Stewie:

    - Reduced the max number of Latcher Stewies in your town from 6 to 4
    - Reduced zapper recharge time from 6 hours to 4 hours
    - More batteries! Red-shirt nerds (along with the Yellow-shirt nerds) now drop batteries too
    - Reduced the number of buildings Latcher Stewie can latch onto. For example, he can no longer latch onto the Quahog Bank.

    With fewer Latcher Stewies in your town and more Zapper resources, it will be easier to banish this mutant Stewie from your Quahog!

    yep...realised that too late earlier!!! Wasted 3 1/2 hrs of waiting!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I think the thing that's annoying me most about the tentacle Stewie is that it constantly seems to latch onto the Q Hotel, which drops an item for Ron "Guy from Hellboy" Perlman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,793 ✭✭✭coolisin


    Looking at the calender thing. I'm screwed!
    I'm only on around 2200 at the moment!! Wonder will I ever even see this stewie thing everyone hates!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,648 ✭✭✭corkie


    Tip. If you have a battery wait until the gun has recharged before using it, if you use the battery the recharge timer is reset to 4hours.


    And don't bother using batteries until you really need to. If you have collect the first prize, wait for the tasks to re-appear for the second prize before using up valuable batteries.

    This was better than Tapped Out at first, but they quickly got greedy with the premium stuff and have done a lot of damage to their reputation. This event seems impossible without spending clams. I log in almost every 4 hours but am over a week behind where I need to be. It isn't doable without clams. Same with the previous event. Tapped Out learnt from their mistakes (the dreaded random wheels) and fixed them. Their last event was perfect and I finished with about a week to spare. Family Guy is now the exact opposite.
