Nerd are available to purchase

I have one nerd outside of The Androids Dungeon so far. My game is freezing and crashing like crazy, so it's kind of hard to stay in for more than five minutes.

So are they just decorations who can't move or are they Non-Playable Characters like Mayan God etc. ?

They stay at a fixed point but have movement every so often. The premium ones have a good multiplier.

Thanks, that's too bad then, I was hoping for a NPC..

Well it would be hard because they are chained up but if you're town is under attack or if you have buildings destroyed they are running around

Why 2 separate sets of the same nerds but in different colors?

Surely 1 set of the 4 is sufficient.

Just noticed the Nerds are available for purchase. Seems to be very expensive.

Think I'll pass.... :roll:

There's no way I'm purchasing the nerds w/ donuts, but I did scoop up two of each of the in-game cash nerds for my SF and KL.

It's too bad that since there are 4 different nerds of each color (8 in total) that at least a red & blue version of one of the other nerds could have been bought with elixir...

cant have castles without nerds :D

i'll buy 2 red and 2 blue for each castle...none using donuts though :? screw that

I'm usually a push over for premium content/decorations. But these do nothing for me. Even with the possibility of using CoC content in KL, I don't really want these.

They should have been for elixir, I have over 150k and nothing to spend it on.

Agreed

Super disappointed that these aren't elixir items.

I'll buy a few with cash. No way I'm spending my Halloween donuts on these.

I went for all 8 - I put a lot of effort into the event and wanted them as a sort of souvenir. I put them on my Barbarian Castle grounds and they look like prisoners. Bwaaahaahaahaa.

It will be great if the castle and decorations can be moved to Krusty Land (as the nerds seem to suggest, mentioned above)- I know a lot of people want to be able to do that due to space issues (and there is a great amount of room in Krusty Land to house the castles). For now, mine are going to stay where they are. I'll probably move them when I need the space and have no more land available to purchase.

I definitely agree that the premium price was way too high for the nerds (just like the Shadow Knight). I sort of feel like EA should have offered them for much less because they are pretty much just decorations. I'm hoping this kind of pricing does not reflect what they will be charging in the future. They will only end up discouraging people who would usually spend money on the game (and this will cut in to their bottom line - maybe not immediately, but gradually), thus effecting the future of the game (content, quality, longevity).

Yes, there will always be people who will fork out the cash, but charging like this will lessen the amount of these people. Also, people who make small purchases here and there are extremely important for income for the developers. I hope they keep that in mind for the future. I've seen other games with premium content charge too much and they have gone under. I have also seen games that have listened to the people playing the game and adjusted the prices to make premium items more affordable and they began to thrive again and are still going strong.

EDIT: agreed that these should have been available for elixir. Makes more sense.
