    Hopefully added soon! And I want to just get it given straight away, not have to collect materials for him.
    I am being haunted by that same thought. It would almost seem appropriate if TinyCo. further kicked us while we're down by saying "Here's your new superhero. As soon as you collect these 40 common items, 20 rare and 20 extra rare items, and just so we're not making it TOO easy for you, 5 epic items". I'm having enough problems trying to get all the other crap they expect for progression. :evil: *Edited for adjective.
    It is ridiculous how much you need for each character. And they seem to have 1 character and maybe a freemium building from the event drop a material.
    Eg for a slice of pizza you can get it by:
    Make Bonnie twerk it (character)
    Get from Q Hotel (freemium)
    Get from Patrick's Trailer (premium).


    Has anyone on android got the mystery box yet (I probably won't spend clams on it but I haven't got it in my game yet)?

    I'm an iOS player, so I'm hoping that I can just log into somebody's Android and get the item XD. Somebody is gonna have to test that to see if it works (like Golden Suit Peter being available for Android if you logged into an iOS product once).

    Just sent this to support:
    Hi there people,

    First I would like to compliment you on a great event that I am enjoying immensely. Good job!

    However, there is always something to improve, so here are my suggestions:

    - stop the platform exclusives. This is alienating your players (especially on Android) It's just not on. Friends play on different devices and want to be able to share the experience. This differentiation between devices is killing that. I am on iOS and hated the fact that people on Android had to wait a whole week.

    - premium characters should earn event currency. Otherwise what's the point in having them. There should be an advantage to buying them with real money.

    - more characters should be dropping items. Not just the characters you unlock early on in the game. I know and understand you want to cater to new players, but it's annoying the hell out of earlier players. Most of my characters are on their 24 hour tasks, because they don't help with the event. You can keep everything the same, just add tasks of other characters to earn items. That way new players can still get everything, but players who have progressed further in the game have more options for getting a certain item.

    - please consider adding different ground covers (concrete, water, dirt roads). The decoration options are a bit limited.

    Oh...and I need more space to put all this excellent event stuff. LoL!

    Thanks! Keep up the good work!

    So many characters who don't earn Blam! Whassup with that? So stupid it's unbelievable :roll:



    *Note*

    * Lois does earn SOME Blam, but only on joint tasks with characters who earn Blam!
    * Brian doe searn Blam, but only with Chris

    and there's probably one or two i'm missing there too

    Ironically (as far as your complaint goes), the joint tasks are the quickest way to earn blam.

    Not when one of those joint characters are required to unlock certain item like characters or skins, while they MAY be a quick way to build the Blam total, it becomes pointless when trying to unlock those items. It was OK on the first couple of days while waiting for the clamterprise, convention centre and q hotel were being repaired, but as of now, pointless until everything needed for unlocking stuff is done

    I prefer the game to have a difficulty to it.

    I'm excited for the Joe skin, actually really surprised. Hope he earns blam to help us catch up too. Do skins earn double?

    I haven't got Captain hammered yet, but I read he earns double blam, so I'd guess all the celebs and superhero costumes do too.

    Wish I was on Android... I'd much rather a skin for Joe than an extra week on to the event :/

    I'm not sure what I'd rather have. An extra week helps towards getting 100,000 quicker and an advantage of having other characters/skins unlocked faster. Whereas the costume for Joe is, well, just a costume that may, potentially, earn Blam!
    When the costume for Joe is out, I'll judge what I'd much rather prefer.

    I've been reading some comments on a FG Blog... And it seems that a LOT of iOS users are complaining about the Joe skin. My solution to this problem is to release the Golden Suit Peter to Android and release the Joe skin to EVERYONE! Problem solved! No more complaining! No more discrimination! The end!

    Man that's odd. I'm iOS and I don't really care I'm not getting Super Hero Joe. Already getting tons of content from this.

    No because that wouldn't make up for the week we missed ,tough look on those IOS users, I'm not saying I agree with the extras for both bit it's unfair for us to get nothing.

    Anyway I have golden suit Peter on my ansrois device, and it works completely fine, thought it was on android now for everyone.
    I will say I did start on IOS though but it supposedly should be blocked

    wait a minute iOS users have something android users don't have? and they are complaining that android users are now going to have something exclusive? Man, talk about petty & greedy.

    Not sure it's petty and greedy to think both devices should get the same content. Also, just saying, Peter already has a ton of costumes which I rarely use, Joe only has the one spare one.

    Unfortunately that's where the world has gone, people moan if they don't get everything and anything thrown at their feet.

    I agree, if someone wants difficulty in games, one would assume puzzles and mystery games would be a better choice to play. Games like these should be set up to be enjoyed in a relaxing way, something to just pass the odd bit if time when played, there should be no elements of difficulty to them. That's where this game is going wrong. If the want to add difficulty to the game, add mini games like the smurfs game used to have (baking cakes for berries or something like that if I remember correctly - been years since I played it). Complex multiple quests and unlockables just spoil the game in events and annoy a lot of players.

    which is exactly how I would describe this game.

    And this game is neither.

    So, when you could get Golden Suit Peter, you thought that people that are not on iOS should have it as well instead of apple having an exclusive, did you? I highly doubt it. But now that there is an exclusive for android/kindle, you think it is unfair. I'm not directly aiming this at you, but majority of players on iOS. You may use that android can get Golden Suit Peter, however that is only if you can get on an iDevice to get it. I cannot do that, like a lot of other players.

    I'm not saying they should have exclusives for different platforms but now that both are going to have an exclusive, they should leave it at that and in the foreseeable future of updates, give all platforms the same content at the same time.
