DerekRx Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Mine originally was 12 hours of rose bushes, I rushed it for 6 donuts to unlock Valentines to friends towns, then started to do the next part which was have Ned sing for 6 hours and that was at 1pm EST. Now it set me back to level 37, gave me 2 donuts, and I'm getting the Super Bowl ending and Blue Haired lawyer and courthouse quests again, but also Ned is still singing and I was able to collect 3 or 4 spins by visiting neighbors towns. It looks like those of us who played last year already have all of those decorations marked on our wheel, so we're sort of closer to getting the Tunnel of Love, though with Christmas it took me until the second to last day to obtain the Helter Shelter, so maybe not really. It also seems we need to keep growing roses at Cletus's to get more hearts and complete another step in the quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 WTF! My rose task jumped to 24 hours. And for some reason it is asking me to do the Superbowl tasks again. WTF?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barge84 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Another update just downloaded and now mine says 24 hours. Same thing happened to me. I haven't had any of the glitches that people have been talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Looking online a ton of people are having their level 37 stuff disappear! I haven't had any glitches or issues. Typical EA! Seems like some fun stuff is coming in this update though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Warrior Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 My update is still downloading. If I try to turn off my phone, the downloading pauses. Same if I try to close the app. Is there anyway to keep the update downloading without keeping the app open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Doesn't look like I've Lost any of my level 37 stuff, but did check out some of the things in this update. Quite excited to get playing tomorrow after this 24 hour task is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke4mur Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 STO: CLStan I was in the middle of a 90 day "Corn, Real Corn" mission. I applied the update...OH NO...I'm going to have to spend almost 1000 donuts to be able to complete the corn to be able to do the rose mission. Wait...WHAT?!?!? My 90 day task COMPLETED! It allowed me to gather all the XP and Cash from the mission. I can start the Roses now. (My rose mission was 24 hours) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 When I started my roses it was a 12 hour quest... Which now has 16 hours left. I'm also having to do stuff over again just like Eric. Don't they play test this at all. This was botched pretty badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Just d/l the update to both the phone and iPad. No issues here. First task was 24 hrs, with no issues. Since I have a crapload of donuts, I sped up the roses. The dialogue is hilarious!! Once you harvest the roses, a couple more things become available. I won't spoil it. Some are cool. A couple premium things. For those who had the 12hr task to start with, they did issue a VERY quick fix-it patch, so when you logged in later, it did a very quick auto-update. Anywho, pay attention to the dialogue. I loved it!! Edit to add: looks like all of your neighbors are now in alphabetical order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Spent 4 doughnuts to speed up the end of the 24 hour task. The wheel is going to be extremely irritating.... I also bought Brandine and was sad she doesn't have any sound bites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 ^I've heard the main reason to buy Brandine is because she will give you three additional characters (but with no tasks, just walk around). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 ^ I'd read that too, can't wait to have the whole red neck family going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreaky Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 If you have Witch Marge you can speed up your rose crop by 4 hour tasks of hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 ^Would love to have known that when I started the task. I only have 2 hours left now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreaky Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 ^Same here. You can use her during the rest of the event tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 What is up at EA? This is the second or third day in a row the server has been down for maintennce. Did someone do a hatchet job on the latest update? I hope it doesn't revert back and have us do all those blimp and Lawyer jobs again. Worse yet, I had just finished the Roses task and would hate to have to do that over again. Anyway, just venting. Server is down again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arby Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 ^yeah, I haven't been able to get on for over 2 hours. EDIT: It's back online. I ended up having to kill my game and restart it and was able to get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I got a message today that basically said, Yeah, we're EA, we suck, we're working on it, kind of. Anyways, it's back up for me. It seems like a fun update, but I don't have the time to do it all like I used to. Also, that whale for 300 is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I think the whale is a statement on pay for purchases games. People that buy everything and spend a ton of cash are typically called "Whales." The amount they spend often make the game profitable even though most players don't pay.

ernierocker Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I still have the Level 37 tasks and Blue-Haired Lawyer tasks trying to play out again. Annoying when I need the same characters for the Valentine updates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I bought Brandine and the Up, Up, and Away Restaurant (I love it from the show!!!) but there's no way I would buy the Whale. Enjoying the tasks and dialogue so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 ^ The Brandine stuff has been hilarious! Can't wait for the dialogue when the kids start to show up Have had fairly good luck with the wheel so far, and need 3 more items to have gotten them all. I am guessing it will be in irritating repetitive territory from now on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 My favorite text so far is when Lisa explains how Valentine's Day worked last year and that she can't wait to see what it is this year, and then the box comes up telling you it's exactly the same! I literally LOL'd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Yeah, the dialogue for this expansion has been quite hilarious. I too am having all the lawyer stuff to do again, plus a few extra random Homer tasks. I am just putting them off untill I have done the Valentines day stuff first. If they're short, or the character isn't in use, I will send them on the task. Like Wiggum and the Comic Book Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally LOL'd! Same here. They've had some great writing in the last couple of updates. This is my first time doing the Valentine's Day quests. Are the hearts used for anything besides the wheel?
