  • I hope it will be a lesson for EA in the future to test their releases more thoroughly, and not just publish a "beta version", as in this case :/
  • Та же история с книгой, весь прогресс в ноль, хотя 8 уровень. Нет меню хэллоуина, на втором уровне кузни не открыты кусты. И пока вся собранная валюта не уйдёт в кошелёк перейти по карте не возможно....
  • If you store NPC Evil Homer, a lot of this lag seems to lessen.

    Sure, my store is still gone, crafting is jacked, my tome and bonus are ruined, and other issues I can't think of...but the lag seems bettet.

    Never mind. I didn't have enough stuff to tap to properly test the theory. It doesn't help.
  • I've been hit with all of the above but I noticed something else peculiar last night (which I've added to my comment on the Answers HQ thread for this glitch) I have a new npc! One of the event minions (as opposed to minionized characters) has decided he quite likes my town and has opted to stay. He's been mooching around ever since...? It's the guy with the pale blue shirt and beige pants and looks like he could be Carl's kid brother. Anyone else noticed this? He still has visiting versions that disappear when I tap him, but there's just part of him that doesn't wanna leave :DB)
  • Had a scare this afternoon when doing friend visits. I was almost done when I visited a neighbor and couldn't tap anything. After a momentary freak-out, I skipped to the next neighbor and everything was fine. I guess it's just that one neighbor.
  • Not that it’s unique to this event, but is anyone besides me still having to download the entire game when you open it? I remember there was a thread about it during the last event, but it’s buried now
  • The market for the Treehouse of Horrors has disappeared and I can't purchase anything related to the event. Also, I'm at level 2 in the event and only 2 things are unlocked when there should 5 or 6.

    If it is an android device, it would likely to be a resource issue. You need to clear space for the game. Do device maintenance and remove apps not needed.

    No, it’s an iOS phone. The iPad doesn’t do it, just the phone.
  • Not that I'm going to buy any but there's supposed to be an option to buy pickaxes in the store. I, however, have no such option to buy pickaxes. Is anyone else missing this?

    This thread is stickied in the ‘Bugs and Issues’ section, so it is easy to find.

    As Sean said, it is most likely to be a lack of space issue.

    I noticed 1 male and 2 female characters and on the screen at the same time earlier today. Nothing happened when I tapped them....
  • I hope that in order for them to recoup from this. They keep this running another week. Because as of now there has been no change. The store is still not up.

    tap buy, it will take you to the store.

    Whoa, whoa, whoa – I only accept cash, bitcoin, or GameStop stock.
  • Well... I have also been experiencing all the same types of issues people have listed here, game lags when collecting rents, takes ages to free up when using job manager, store disappeared, lost a 10% bonus from my tome as it rolled back four levels etc etc..

    But today... after my game had kicked me out for some reason, I decided to log in to my daughters dormant town instead... game started... Hallowe'en event triggered... played along... store came up and is accessible...

    Then something I never saw in my town happened.... lots of ordinary minions formed... not cursed ones, just random normal ones, is it possible that they walk around town and gradually get picked off one by one by Countess Dracula as time goes by?.. Is there some bug that is stopping them forming in big towns?..

    Haven't got to the stage yet where I can craft those spooky bushes.... so I'll keep an eye on it, as I know I could access store (and like an idiot decided because it was late at night when I finally got to trigger it I would buy stuff the next day) and craft spooky bushes but then next day it all went wrong...

    I'm managing to play the event and get certain items to help me, so it's not a total loss, I just can't be bothered to collect rents now....
  • Well here we go into another day of still no event store. This crap is getting annoying.
  • I'm not even just sure when this happened but my Tome is at level 1 despite showing as nearly at level 9 :neutral:
  • If they would just look at the game themselves i bet they would see that the tome has the glitch/bug
