    Yup they nicely threw a hint there that made me stop digging the grave.

    A timed event within a timed event that you cant start until you unlock another character from the event is a load of bollocks to begin with. Diane shouldnt have been available at all until you get the outfit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭ShazGV


    Getting a bit ridiculous in my Quahog; still trying to unlock Mayor West & Tom Tucker, trying to collect everything for the Mayor West cologne task & unlock Ghostbuster Peter all at the same time. Definitely glad I noticed the tip about waiting to start the Diane task!


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


    Ended up using clams to speed up Ghostbuster Peter to give me a fighting chance at Diane, and surprise surprise, another fucking timed event! Really taking the piss now.

    Terror Dogs take
    2 hours
    to defeat!

    I have no hope getting Diane, unless TinyCo extend it or maybe give a second chance to dig her up again.


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


    I might still get Diane, assuming I quit sleeping!

    Got to the ten handy enough but that was never the hard one. Going to be incredibly tight and I'm considering clams if I'm close enough. It's 10 clams to speed up Peter's task and it seems to be an always drop.

    12 Terror dogs in 3 days. Easily doable but annoying to have yet another timed one already.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,508 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    I'm on route to get the 12 terror dogs by tonight, if i remember to log in every 2 hours :(

    Just looking through the items that can be unlocked in the events menu.
    It seems that the stay puft man will be paying our Quahogs a visit :D


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


    I need 10 more terror dogs in 32 hours. Maybe I can squeeze in a little sleep after all :pac:

    Does anyone know what the max level is for Patrick Stewart and the other Comic Con celebs? I'm after getting him to level 16. Every other Family Guy character, except Peter, max out at 15.
    I just want to max these guys out, so I can retire them, as they are pretty useless these days.
    (except George Takei, who can get you fright points)

    Some of them get you FP for the 1 day task, but not the other tasks, so be sure to check that :)

    About max level, not sure really, I would have thought it was 15. But Ron Pearlman is level 15 for me and still going.

    Patrick Stewart, Felicia Day, Ron Perlman & Stan Lee don't get you FP. I didn't fork out the clams for Nathan Fillon or Brian Cranston. (as much as I wanted to get Brian!)

    I really hope they don't go to a really high level before maxing out.


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


    Nathan Fillion has a one day task that gets you some FP, I don't have Cranston though so I dunno about him.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,508 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Yeah, it's Fillion, Cranston and Takei that get you FP for the 1 day tasks.
    The trio that are marked in FaceSpace as Comic-Con Celebrities Too :)

    I'd say they'd max out at level 20, but it'll be an awful grind as I only put those guys on 1 day tasks and that's the slowest way to get XP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,198 ✭✭✭CardBordWindow


    Seeing how I'm getting Peter to get a Terror Dog every 2 hours, I have them all on 2 hours to try get their levels up.
    I'm not that bothered now though. I thought I nearly had them max. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,134 ✭✭✭gubbie


    Why would you care about maxing your characters? Seems a bit pointless

    Tension here. 2 hours until the Vinny bonus expires. Task to get the last item ending in about 1hr 35 mins. It's an Extra Rare. Will luck be on my side? :D

    Use clams ?


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


    I've gotten pretty bored with this update already. The premise is fine, it's just too slow and obviously weighted towards clams for my liking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Woshy


    I didn't unlock Diane until I'd crafted ghostbuster Peter and I'm still going to be one short of the jar things by the time the timer runs out. I thought I was being really on to it as well. Anyone else have the same problem?

    Use clams to speed up Peter. Think it's only 10 clams and I got a drop every single time.

    I guess I'll have to - bit crap that despite a big effort I'll still need to use clams. I was saving up for Consuela!

    I'm saving up for her too.......but I'm very very tempted by Predator.


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


    The whole Diane thing was a pain in the ring!
    I didnt end up making it to getting her, You would really need to have logged in every 2 hours it feels like!! Missed it by six jars.

    The timed limits on characters are annoying a great way for you to spend clams.

    I got Diane no hassle but thanks too the tip here not too dig her up! I'm just sending quagmire snd peter out too zap ghosts and all the rest have no jobs!! I send Diane for traps


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 16,649 CMod ✭✭✭✭faceman


    I missed Diane by 2 jars because I was at an 8 hour conference. I purchased the Predator. Realised I don't watch enough Family Guy to know who any of the other premium characters are!

    Get Jerome to Trade Baseball cards, Lois to Have a Drink.
    Bonnie and Pink Brian (if you have him) can split a Rosé.
    Cool Aid Guy, King Butt, Human Rupert and George Takei (also if you have them) do a 24hr action which earns you FP and vials.

    Level 4 brings joe ghostbusters outfit, Francis' grave and little trick or treaters.

    I've too much stuff walking around the town waiting to be cleared.

    Adam west dogs
    Terror dogs
    Trick or treaters

    Also all the Halloween stuff blocks a lot of the view.

    The hunt has started. Alien is now available in your shop to help you destroy Terror Dogs. Alien's acidic blood can also be used for Stink Bombs to help clear those pesky candy-loving kids.

    Due to player feedback, we've made the following changes to help you clear the Trick-or-Treaters:

    - Reduced the goal requirement from 200 to 150 Trick-or-Treaters
    - Increase the rate that the Trick or Treaters will appear
    - Introduced new, shorter character actions that will drop Stink Bombs
    - Added Bruce as a source for Stink Bombs

    We hope this helps! As always, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedback with us so we can continually work to improve the game. Happy stink bombing!

    Quoted from TinyCo facebook app page.


    At 70/150 now and since Alien quests gives us 12 bombs(if you bought). I think I have a day and half left to complete this challenge which makes it possible.

    Damn it Francis! I've crafted the confessional 3 times now cause it kept un-crafting it when I quit the game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash


    Any other player getting more and more pissed off with the rate at which the game crashes and whit how expensive it's become? You'd want to be spending the guts of €200 a month to get everything. And even at that I actually have no room left in my town for new buildings.

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


    I've spent a couple quid purely as I wanted ecto 1
    Bought stink bombs and ran out of time to clear the 150 kids, fell short by 6!

    Was at 123 kids but couldn't be bothered buying more, hate these timed offers.


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


    The road and maze tactic works now by the way. I get 12-14 murdered kids every time I log in now.

    Have Francis ready to build (was short by 7 when I logged out last time) and then need to save up the FP for Ghostbuster Joe. Have the rest of his items. Hopefully be able to build up a bit of a collection after that for next week.

    Any chance you could take a screenshot of your layout? I've tried it, but it's never worked for me.
