Man, it really sux when you get a Super Rare animal but it's one you already have. Could there be some kind of system where you can trade duplicate animals with your GC friends? Or trade a certain number of duplicate animals for a guaranteed shot at a random animal from a particular Tier?
I hope for any kind of work on the animals, the rares are horrible to get. I got 1 mouse, 1 goat, 2 red panda 1 raccoon, 1 eagle, 1 toucan, 1 parrot, and FIVE macaw...still lacking the rest. Oh, and got 4 Macaws, and all the yellow animals before i got the "in theory" common poodle
That sounds great, I've completely stopped doing hearts because it feels absolutely futile. I keep getting 5000 coins which is nothing (city earns that in 3 seconds), or animals I already own. Zero motivation for me to keep on trying.
I too can not wait for a new heart reward system and new content. As it stands, I currently have: All genes All buildings (All fully staffed and upgraded to max working time) All tier 1, 2 and 3 animals All heart reductions All Achievements (except for Endangered Species) Max decor discount (money and time) 35 trees 250+ utopium 246/265 land The only things I haven't finished yet are: All tier 4 animals, and I am only missing 1. However, I have rescued over 600 animals so far with no luck on this last one. Reach level 50, and that is simply a matter of time/patience. I check into my game once or twice an hour to check my buildings, and maybe grab 1 heart surprise, but I am slowly losing interest which is very upsetting because I love this game. Perhaps the Devs could add a Casino building that would allow you to spend utopium on minigames like slot machines or roulette or something, to help pass the time. EDIT: I just got the Mechanic bug again and I noticed that the combo to unlock the Mechanic is now Default + Default. Also, the combination of Car Designer + Assistant is no longer valid.
Another funny, if not weird bug. I slapped some roads here and there and then accidentally tapped at one of them. This is a standard building-in-progress dialog except there was no building and no actual animation. Just a little road. Restarting the game didn't help, so I sped it up with utopium and nothing happened.
With regard to the two achievements for sharing gene combinations on facebook, has anyone found a way to get these achievements without actually posting anything on facebook? I know that's not really the intention of these achievements, but I never link games to social networks, but for the sake of completion, I'd quite like to complete them.
When you connect to FB you should be able to change the privacy to "Only me" that way your friends won't see the posts. If you've already connected, go to your FB app settings page (https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications) and set Pixel People to "Only me" from there.
You can actually limit the visibility at the time you first link within the app, it's what I always do. Somewhere out there I'm sure there are people for whom their Facebook peers are also gaming peers but I can't help but feel like all of this is a huge misfire on the part of game developers following from the accident of "social" gaming being largely born on FB. It doesn't seem a relevant way of drumming up good PR for your game. [off topic but related aside] My Facebook is largely about keeping in touch with old friends and family with the inevitable splash of politics and social issues. I intentionally migrated 100% of my so-called social gaming from FB to iOS years ago precisely because I could form a group of peers for which I needed nothing in common other than gaming, didn't need to know anything about them, and they don't need to know anything about me. My mother in law and high school friend from years ago aren't interested in knowing how to make a Matdor, or joining my clan, or how high a score I made in yet-another-match-3. In fact, out of all the people I've ever played an iOS game with, there are exactly 4 I have any actual relationship with at all, and only 2 of them are in my FB network. I'll like your game any day of the week if I actually like it so people actively looking for my interests will see it, but I'm not about to fill my feed full of the same sort of things that forced FB to totally revamp the way they handled games on FB [/off topic aside]
For some reason, this forum isn't letting me get to the last post. I'm making this post hoping it will get me there. On a related note, I've finally got 155/155. Just gotta get my trees up and upgrades. [EDIT] Weird, apparently I am at the last post... yet the forum shows I'm only on page 126 of 130. How odd.
Same thing here, thought it was odd though that there was 3 more pages of posts since this morning. Hopefully just a forum glitch and no ones trying to hide things from us
So after a freak accident at the splicing lab (I think that Mechanic fell or something): I have 156/155. Really frustrated now with the game though, too much effort being put in just to get coins given out by the surprise more often than anything useful. Rarities are a no show.
I too am having the same issue, there are about 3 "extra" pages at the end of this topic. At first I thought that some posts may have been deleted (mainly my posts about the games code) but I checked and everything is still there. So I'm not sure why there are phantom pages in this topic.
Sharing a few stats (all numbers with the IAP doubling production time). There's not much to do once you have 155 clones, so I tried to min/max the coins I get while only checking twice a day for a few minutes. Coins are relevant again, since the land expansion is now capped at 150m coins (with the 50% discount). I have fully upgraded all the buildings that make at least 24 cps during an hour (my rule of thumb, 12cps for 2 hours or 48 cps for half an hour is the same ) That's 21 buildings ( Stadium, Circus, Bar, Film Studio, Theatre, Observatory, Radio Station, University, City Square, Gallery, Dojo, Farm, Space Port, Forensic Lab, Space Admin, Ninja HQ, Farmer's Market, Lakehouse, Research Lab, Library, Enterprise) I made duplicates of : -the stadium (best earner at 3.45m coins fully upgraded per 20h cycle), 8 of them total. -the bar (berst earner for 1 land at 970k coins per 15h cycle), 4 of them. - City square (fastest earner at 624k in 50m), 4 of them. These are also fully upgraded. These 34 buildings make 45 million coins with only one click on the building refresh! As there's not much to do anymore, checking once a day is enough for me. If I check twice (once in the morning, once in the evening), it's about 80m coins counting only once the buildings that have a produciton time over 12h. All the other buildings, the 52 of them are not upgraded. They make a tiny 1.2m coins in one cycle. Obviously, their cycle is very short (from 4 minutes to 2h). But as the only point of clicking the buildings is to make coins, I usually don't bother with them anymore. So, with this setup, I can make 80m coins a day checking twice a day for one minute, and just clicking 60 times in total on the building refreshes. That's a land expansion in coins every 2 days I usually play a little bit more trying to get some u from the trees, but basically it's easy money now, waiting for the updates
Thanks to JayTay and C.Hannum for the tips on the facebook thing. I didn't realise you could limit the posts so that they're visible only to me. I've done that (and subsequently got the achievements). Cheers
I only plan on collecting money from buildings until I can reach level 32, at which point I should be able to trade 100u for enough coins to reach level 37. At level 37 I can trade another 100u for enough coins to reach level 50 and still have over 4 million coins left over. So for a total cost of 200u, I will receive 18 levels of land expansion and 4 million coins. Ironically 200u would only get me 5 land expansions from the Law Firm, with no additional coins left over. I am currently level 25, so I still need to patiently save a total of 1,020,000,000c from my buildings first, but that is my plan.
Hah. Well. If the coins really worked like that, the economy would be ruined right? We really like the tension between legal loophole, coin expansion and decor. Planning on keeping that tension tight. Coin exchange will soon be real useful though
