There will be quest that ask you to repair the blue beacon (a blue orb across the river, next to the border of the misty area) just outside of the misty area, once it's done, it will clear the fog and you can buy that area.
Unfortunately, you can't do any of that until you can get some coral, and it is taking forever to get five harpoons on the Atoll so I can build a coral factory. This is getting really frustrating.
Has anyone already noticed that after installing the latest update, the game won't give you any more free chrystals for having logged in on five consecutive days? Does anyone know if there is another way to obtain chrystals, 'cause I'm not planning on spending real money on virtual improvements...
They still give you one crystal for each level up. But it doesn't compare to three crystals every five days. Bummer
You get one crystal each time you level up. Yeah...the daily rewards seem to be gone. If you log in five days in a row, you get a part of a medallion. Big deal...
Alchemist Hole After finally completing the first part of the Alchemist Hole I've decided that having one of those in real life would be a blast.
Guys, is there anything that can be done to restore one's progress when the game randomly boots you back to the beginning from level 45 with almost all the current quests done? PLEASE tell me there is...I have spent real money on this game, and am currently struggling just to get the developer to refund me for an overcharge--there is no WAY I am starting over, and I will be SO upset if I have to go after them to get all my money back! Edited to add, I have just been reading this company's Facebook page, and I would seriously advise everyone NOT to spend any money on this game...there are a lot of people with the same problems as I have (being ripped off on gem purchases and not getting a refund, having all their progress lost), and the developer does absolutely NOTHING to fix these issues. I can attest to having had the runaround on my own refund for almost a month, now, so, yeah...something shady is going on, here. :-( I definitely won't be playing again from level 1 to level 45; it was fun to do once, but I'm really not enthused about doing it all again. This is SO disappointing.
Many thanks for that, guess I've a long way to go then, aint even got a coral mine yet. Still think it's a great game though ...
The defence tower Does anyone else have the problem of the defence tower getting 'stuck' in being assembled? I've been building my first one for a day and a half now and there only seems to be any progress when you have the island opened.
Defense Tower Yes - there are a couple posts about it. I got them built by starting them, plugging my IPad into the charger and leaving it on that screen.
I tried going to Apple support to get my refund, and they told me I had to go to the developer. :-( So I've basically been screwed.
Really sorry to hear this Lao-shu I've also had earlier issues with this app and trying to deal with the apps customer service was ridiculous and frustrating....I kept at it though and they eventually refunded my lost gems...I did start the app again but that was when I was up to lvl 22....now I'm about to hit lvl 50 and there's no way I will start it again if it resets itself.....a few have had this issue on this thread also, and due to this I had already stopped purchasing anymore crystals. only did min purchase when sale was on 3-4 times. I'm pretty shocked at Apples response.....quiet a while ago, I had a couple of issues with apps not performing well (both purchases, not games) and they refunded me because of it...maybe that's a different matter. Have you told Apple that you are not getting anywhere with the devs and that this issue is affecting many gamers? If you do regular back ups via iTunes....I thought you could reinstate the game from your last back up....maybe someone more savvy can confirm this or at worst ask the app support this question.....yeah, it's a last resort and I totally get the frustration with them. Such a shame, cos its a great app but badly let down by too many glitches and poor support....each update adds more glitches (quests in particular) Wish I could offer more help.....I'm going to back up mine now....I also take screen shots as proof of what level I'm on etc....probably no point but trying to cover all avenues I guess? Good luck with the app support (or lack of) I'm sure they hope people will just give up trying to deal with them, they've got our money and don't seem to care about a good reputation or fixing this ongoing issue that they absolutely know is happening....maybe leave a review about this to alert others thinking of downloading it?
I'm not sure why Apple wasn't more helpful--they have refunded me in the past when I had problems with a dishonest developer, but it was for a lot more money, that time. Can I restore just one app from a backup, or would I have to reset my whole iPad? Because if I would have to reset the whole thing by a week or so, I can't really do that, because I use it a lot for work, and there's a ton of stuff that's actually important on there, which I can't risk messing up or losing just for lost game levels. :-( It's so frustrating, how they keep piling on more and more expansions, but do NOTHING to address the bugs that have been present through update after update, wasting people's money, and not answering their support messages. I even tried leaving them messages on Facebook...no replies there, either.
I don't really have the will to read through the 80 pages to find out if this has been discussed, but what is the best, or more to the point fastest way to make money? Is the obvious answer the correct answer, volley ball courts? If so, I have 16 of them on two of my islands, and 8 on another, and making money seems really slow, possibly slower than it felt before. I still need a 3.5 million territory on Marble Fiord, and now 7 million in just the visible territories on Murlod Island. I had over 10 million when the latest patch came out, and that seemed to get me almost nowhere. They raised the cost of territory way too much. Also, they lowered the cost of grass patches from 100,000 to 10,000, but then added the tennis statue for 500,000 EACH? That is insane, and a quest requiring you to build 4 is even insane-er. Come to think of it, they may have only been listed at 100,000, I don't know if they actually cost that much. I doubt I would have nearly as many as I do if they did. One last thing, is it just me, or is $100 real money for $60,000 ($300,000 at the moment) in this game the single biggest rip off in the history of the world, ever? Well, except that app that existed for a day or two that was $1000, and didn't do anything at all, except show people that you essentially paid $1000 to brag.
