Having just started the game, can anyone help me with the following questions please? 1. Does the guy with the fishing rod follow you around for the whole game? Without spoilers, is there a task I've missed that gets rid of him? 2. Where do I find someone to look after my food stall? (I'm assuming I need a minder to sell stuff through it). Do I need to build him a house? 3. Is it worth spending 50 pearls on upgrading my inventory or is there a better use of my pearls? 4. Where is the feeding frenzy challenge to get the Narwhal Horn?
Can't login I've played Seabeard for all of 5 minutes today and yesterday - constantly get messages that I've been disconnected and that I need to be connected to the internet to play. Yet all my devices are connecting fine, Hearthstone works fine, and I have zero ping loss (over 500 pings) to 8.8.8.8. Yay!
At the moment it seems like the servers are down ... Maybe they are trying to fix this bug. It's been working fine for me.
Yep, he's part of your crew. Always handy to have a fisherman with you when out and about I've found. There should be a lady waiting dockside on your island, and you need to build a trading house before she can work on the stall. Yes. At some point (after reaching a certain level) you will get extra games such as the feeding frenzy and also fastlane. Hope this helps.
When did humour (yes humour is subjective, you have a right to say if you think a joke is not funny) become so frowned upon in the forums! Also, why is an opinion frowned upon unless it is positive! My (attempted humour, rather than straight neggin) analogy was simply how I felt after spending 8 hours grinding in a game that I wanted to be great (hence spending so long in it to gather a fair opinion).
Yeah, and the income, while it does ramp up with upgraded craftspeople and new booths, still is achingly slow. I have about three things to buy right now that are around 3k (fix warrior academy-quest, build monster stall seler house-quest, and buy a new boat-optional). Even though I can make over 1k a day if I play a lot, it is so mind-numbing at this point, I can't seem to make more than 200 before I quit for the day. I still log in, but unless they create better ways to make money, or more to do than just that, I will uninstall soon.
1) that person is going to be your best friend and you'll be sad when there gone 2) follow the quests, you'll have to build them a trader house and then hire someone to work the stall 3) NEVER!!!! Save every pearl for either upgradeing your fish stall or for when you get the warehouse to upgrade that. Those 5 extra slots are not worth it trust me 4) keep checking between islands and they'll event show up
The monster stall is worthless until you have the warrior and then still not a real good deal. Focus on the fish monger by upgrading that stall you can collect more money faster and the food stall is also good just not as for leaving stuff to sell when you log off. I suggest that you only try to use energy to play mini games on easy or medium and then only when the islands are close because the longer the journey the harder it is, even on easy. This way you'll always earn stuff you can sell
Really?! Fair play. Well for me, the game seems to be constantly enticing you to pay or wait for something new, when that something new materialises, there is nothing to see. Then you are enticed to pay or wait for something else that also has a shallow pay off! I quite enjoy the little sailing mini games, but I haven't managed to find anything else that feels like a game in here yet? Have you got very far into this? Is it worth me powering on? Will I unlock any cool features further in? Btw, I enjoy trying to see how far I can get in FTP games without paying, but this is really testing my grind limits!
You mean upgrading with pearls the monger, or upgrading the fisherman? The fisherman has been upgraded but the new fish are not worth much more. The food stall is in place and earning a little bit. I have the warrior and lots of monster pieces laying around, but I really don't feel like building that 3k coin house, then paying for the seller to move in, just to try to incrementally increase my income to save for the warrior upgrade, which will also incrementally increase my income in order to... what? What is next? What cool new mechanic am I aiming for? I agree with you and the other poster. Some of these comments are not coming from honest criticism but anger at the way the entire industry is going combined with unrealistic expectations. The responses are annoying/hilarious, and I feel for you and the other reviewers. This is coming from someone who thinks that the game isn't even a 4 star game in it's current state.
Check out the comments on the review if you want to truly stare into the maw of madness. What kills me about all this anger and all these knee-jerk reactions is these people jus won't listen to any reason and it really just seems like they just want to be mad just in a real general sense. If you hate free to play, cool, you can download a different great paid game on the App Store quite literally every single day and never play the same thing twice. There's no scarcity of content here, regardless of what you're in to. Hell, there's even a corner of the App Store with bizarre Japanese romance games. I'm trying to come up with a comparison in any other medium that this behavior makes sense and I just really can't. Do people who love movies get ultra-pissed when some explosion-packed summer blockbuster is released? No, they just watch whatever high-brow Sundance Film Festival movie is releasing instead. It's troubling to me that gamers in general seem to just enjoy being so negative, all the time, about everything. Being surrounded by such rampant negativity sure doesn't make our job very fun.
This is as much a game as harvest moon or animal crossing. If that's not for you, move on. To people saying this should be premium: Spend $20 on pearls and it basically will be. That's what you should pay for a premium version, so just money up already. Yes, right at the beginning, because that's also when you have to pay for premium games. To Hand Circus: I do t know what compelled you to go online only, but it's the true broken feature, how did this not come up in soft launch?
When i was younger i had a Gameboy, had about 15 games i had bought for it. Before that i had a Genesis (Megadrive) with about 10 games. Later a Playstation with 10 games. All these years later i have a device at my fingertips which literally has 400 games on it (I've got a 64 gig phone !), i've got emulators on my phone each of which has about 50 games on it each. MAME which has about 400 games and so on. I can download more instantly from the app store if i want for peanuts (No £7.95 price which i paid for games EACH in the 80's) IF theres a freemium game which i think 'nah dont like this, too grindy' i'll just go back and play one of my 800+ games i've got on my phone. Plus as Eli said theres games coming out every second, every day. Updates every day for some of my 400 apps which add new levels etc. I cant get bored ever ! Be at home all day, cant get bored ! Yeah 'some' freemium games are frustrating, move on, be happy and play some of the many 100000's of games which you do enjoy out there or find on the app store. I'm an older gamer and iOS is the best gaming platform i've used in all these years. Enjoy it !
Could we have something in a post that combines the wisdom of the soft-launch players about tips and tricks early on especially? i keep seeing sporadic advice, and people asking the same questions, and getting answers 3 pages later. I think it would be a great help if we had something like an faq from a couple of the most experienced Seabearders. If some people would want to do it, would this go to a new thread, and in which subsection of the forums?
If someone want to start a Faq and tricks section I'll glad add anything I've learned Some of my tricks where fixed before this launch but this..... Prestige trick: Whenever your asked to increase your prestige level by 30 pick no then if you have items in your houses equal to 100% put them in your inventory or warehouse if you got one then reproach that person and pick yes, after that return home and replace those items to complete that quest Also it's not worth it buying furniture since you may get them as rewards in quests but remember to those with higher prestige for my trick
Where is our house? I just got a piano for building the thrift shop, hopefully that's enough to get to Prestige 30.
