The question is did Rovio promise to give us an update or is it just a loose comment? :)
-
The update was promised by Rovio when grug's last challenge was finished. Have a look again when you touch the rock with the kid under it, it says it there.
-
Thanks Bad Piggies, thanks InHisName (for PN)
Got my friend in the list twice now (FB & GC) but both worlds are empty... :/ Guess I gotta wait for an update from Rovio and hope they fixed that glitch, right? -
@Kelski, I know it's mentioned in the game, I was being sarcastic. ;)
It says in the top left corner "coming soon" and when you click on the kid under the rock it states "Your Croods' adventure will soon continue!", but it's already 4 months that we see those messages!
Rovio should define the word soon! :) -
Funny fact!
Click on your crystals.
You can buy 2100 crystals for €26.99
You can buy 4200 crystals for €54.99 (this is also presented as Best Value).
Do the math, I would rather buy 2x 2100 crystals instead of 1x 4200. :) -
@Namoh, in Canada it is
300 for $4.99 (Most popular)
1000 for $14.99
2100 for $29.99
4200 for $59.99 ((Best Value)
Question is "Best Value" for who? -
Well, if not funny, then at least interesting fact indeed. Have not noticed it before. I see prices €3.85, €11.57, €23.15, €46.30. I wonder if they have different prices in different euro countries or have they already "fixed" them? I'd think the original idea was supposed to be extra 100 crystals in every following category, but it seems they have forgotten it or creed has gotten best of them. It'd make more sense to give extra 100, 200, and 400 crystals respectively and perhaps jolly people into buying a more expensive package instead. But that's only me thinking and I'm not an economist.
-
In ABR it is $4.99 for 80 of any power-ups and there is $4.99 for 80 of each power-up
-
This is what we got in NL:
- Pile of Coins: 4300 coins for 250 crystals (Most popular)
- Small Pouch of Coins: 13900 coins for 700 crystals
- Big Bag of Coins: 28800 coins for 1500 crystals
- Huge Box of Coins: 59600 coins for 3200 crystals (Best value)
- Pile of Crystals: 300 for €4.49 (Most popular)
- Small Pouch of Crystals: 1000 for €13.99
- Big Bag of Crystals: 2100 for €26.99
- Huge Box of Crystals: 4200 for €54.99 (Best value) -
Hi, everyone. I've been lurking since April. This has been a very interesting and helpful forum. I'd like to add some friends to Game Center.
My guest game is at level 15 with
5 molarbears
5 bunny beasts
5 giralephants
3 albatroceros
1 crocopup
1 ramu
1 sharkodile
1 fishcat (building home and taming fishcat)
My Rovio game is at level 21 with
9 molarbears
5 bunny beasts
6 giralephants
3 albatroceros
4 crocopups
1 ramu
3 sharkodiles
3 fishcats
2 zeavers
2 bear owls
1 land whale -
@Simka, you can add MisterGiF in GC
-
I see you in Game Center, Mister GiF, but I don't see you in Croods. I have signed out and in several times. Do I have to turn off my iPad as well?
-
I would like to add a bit to the facts about the game. Someone upthread commented on small differences in the animals. I'm fascinated by the art in the movie and the game, so I wrote down all that I could find.
Variations
Molarbear - no differences that I can find. Possibly a variation in shading on the backside and shoulders.
Bunny Beast - shape and color of the topknot; shape and color/stripes on the ears; stripes on the back and belly or spots on the back, and color of stripes; shape and color of the tail.
Giralephant - color of the back; shape of the tusks.
Albatroceros - shape and color of the tail feathers; shading on the bottom third of the belly.
Bear Owl - color of the mane, color of the edge of the "ears"; color of the tail tip.
Crocopup - presence or absence of a tuft on the end of the tail; striped or spotted snout; shape of the ears; shape and color of the fur on the back.
Ramu - no differences that I can see.
Sharkodile - presence or absence of stripes on the body; shape of the dorsal fin; shape and color of the tail.
Fish Cat - shape and color of the dorsal fin; shape and color of the tail; spots on the back (may be associated with the shape of the dorsal fin).
Zeaver - length and shape of the ears; length of the mane; width of the central dorsal stripe; color/stripe on the end of the tail.
Land whale - variation in shading on the tail fluke. -
Hi! I just discovered this page & enjoyed hearing peoples stats here. I currently have all of my creatures leveled up & am currently evolving my last 4 sharks...they all will be as high as I can get them except my 3rd land whale which has another 20 hours to finish his house. @mistergif can I be your friend on FB or do I have to login to GC? I currently am only using a guest account. I see Namoh as a friend in my list but would like a few other friends. I currently have 1.6+ mil coins & 1816 crystals (down 200 since I bought my 3rd land whale house a couple days ago.) I have the max number of animals except bear owls (2) and land whales (3), and I have absolutely NO room for anything else. Does anyone actually have the max number of all of the animals arranged in a way that they will all fit on the land given? When I visit friends homes I average between 30 and 80 crystals, depending on the day...a few times I've been able to visit them twice in a day & then have gotten over 100 crystals a day or two. Any suggestions? :)
-
I have never logged in with Game Center and wonder if someone can explain to me why I would want to? I am only on a guest account with Croods currently.
-
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I was also wondering if there is any way to stockpile soup? All of my animals have had all the soup they can handle & it appears that the soup is maxed out at 60. I was just wondering if there is any trick to be able to have a bit more in storage for the next levels?
-
Well it has been months since the last update and I can see that you are all patiently waiting. Not me! Since Rovio has really let us all down here I have discovered two new games that are even more addicting! And...get this....they have regular updates! And they are great updates! Check out Hay Day and Clash of Clans. These games make Rovio look like the old pacman. Yes, pacman is fun for a while but can you really get addicted to a game when it's the same story over and over? Rovio has seriously dropped the ball here. Croods is somewhat Neanderthal in its gameplay...everything is crowded and slow and the lack of timely updates makes it not worth the time you are wasting playing it. Sorry...I just speak the truth here. Meet me in Hay Day, and you won't regret it! BTW the new Croods update will be out in October. Have fun waiting!
-
Hi Mary, if you are located in Yuba City, CA, then we are already connected in FB.
-
@Simka, this is a known bug, that should be fixed in the next update, in ....... October?!?
-
@mtice77, yes you can have all homes on the available land.
This was my main goal after reaching level 21.
I've had contact with a few guys who also tried to manage this.
Because of this I've seen 3 different setups which had all possible homes placed incl the decorations needed for the 15% boost.
-
Folks, since Sunday I made a bunch of friends on FB bc of the whole 'visit-your-neighbour' thing and the people still keep confirming me. But there seems to be a glitch in the game since those who confirmed do not show up in the neighbours list and inviting them to the game doesn't do anything. Not sure if posted here before but here's what you gotta do:
The Issue:
Confirmed FB-friends do not appear in the neighbours-list
Do the following:
1. go to the game settings and sign out from your Rovio account
2. let the game start over (happens automatically)
3. abort that by closing/minimizing the app
4. then shut down the app (not minimizing the app but shutting it down completely!)
5. restart the app
6. sign back in to your Rovio account
=> All FB friends should appear in the list now. (At least they do here)
And oh, this seems to be a glitch that's only related to the Rovio account. No need to touch your FB account.
Cheers
Lars ;) -
@laquibie, Some still do not appear after all this, but happy that you could make a few more worlds appear :-)
-
@MisterGif, Yes I did notice that you were already my friend on facebook after I saw your name on GC. Thanks! :)
-
@Namoh, can you give me the names of the friends who have all of the animals allowed fitting into the land? I have managed all of the animals and all of the decorations needed except I only have 2 bear owls and 3 land whales. And the way I arranged mine I have no extra space to move or reposition anyone. (I had 5 bear owls at one point but then needed to remove 3 so that I had room to squeeze in the rest of my animals.) Thanks! :)
-
-
@ MisterGiF
Well all I can say is that in my game they're all there.
The only issue is one friend that is on FB as well as GC - her world is still empty and on level 1 (like it was before I started the whole making-friends-on-FB-thing). But that might as well have to do with her messing around somehow...
Anyway, I'm happy, got another 30 gems this morning :D -
@mtice77, Namoh also have all allowed animals with 15% boost. There are a few more friends including lucylastic and Luisete. Unfortunately, you may be able to see only their guest account and not their real world. Others have mentioned that I can only be seen in my guest account too. (:
From my latest observation, Aprold Cuk has all allowed animals and still enough space for 2 or 3 more homes! Well done A.C.
-
I've got the same setup as A.C. (as mentioned, with giving credits, in an earlier post), and there's room for 3 extra homes.
Luis Garcia Garcia has a setup discovered by me (but based on an earlier setup of him) which has all homes incl the 15% boost but with no more room for other homes.
oskray has discovered a setup which has all homes incl the 15% boost with room for 1 extra home.
Aprold Chuk has discovered a setup which has all homes incl the 15% boost with room for 3 extra homes.
If you try a few hours you can discover one of these setups or a complete new one by yourself, just by trial and error. :)
It would be nice to see if more setups are possible which can handle all homes incl the 15% boost instead of copying the ones already discovered. -
Btw, I'm not playing The Croods very often anymore.
I visit this forum more then I play. :)
I stopped with Crystal hunting, I got enough crystals to start with when the update comes.
I've reached all Achievements from the GameCenter, all homes evolved, all animals fully boosted, enough money to start with when the update comes, discovered a setup to place all homes and the decorations....................there's really nothing else more to do then...........WAIT!!!
The waiting wouldn't be that worse, if Rovio maybe told or gave some hints about what's coming with the new release.
Share some information about the amount of new animals, decorations, etc, etc.
Information about new speeds, food, goodies, whatever.
But no, they want us to play Hay Day or other games apparently.......?? -
@namoh, If you have seen my earlier setup, it’s different now. I have since removed 3 decorations from that setup.
In my present setup, minimum decorations are used for all animals except the Fish Cats where I have to use 4 instead of min 3 decos to get 15% boost. Now, I have a space for 2 additional homes. Besides that, I have another space where I can put a message “Hi”. It’s disappointing that we cannot see each other world now.
-
I've not been playing the game for more than a week either. And if I remember it correctly then I don't have anyone with full layout among my 100+ friends. That's what I see: Namoh has 1 home at level 1, Luís has 2 homes at level 1, and Owen 5 homes at level 4. That's a shame and Rovio is to blame. For a long time I was playing as a guest without Rovio account and only few weeks back I registered an account with Rovio in a hope that it might trigger some kind of change with friends' worlds. The only change that happened was not seeing my second game on my phone any more which was presented as level 1 to me. Just in case I played my main guest account to level 4 with 5 homes for gift availability. Who sees my full layout and who sees my guest? Who sees something else?
In the beginning of July I made a full-size picture of my layout and posted it on my freshly created Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1391118147770267
I can quickly copy and paste together my current layout for others to see as it's probably better to follow than scrolling a friend's world even if you're lucky to see me.
Aprold
(still keeping my fingers crossed for an update) -
@Aprold Cuk, that is an interesting picture (granted the copy/paste)
Last I looked I was seeing your level 21 game, yours is the only fully built/fully boosted world that I still see :-(
I'm still far from a full map (still missing 1 land whale home and 4 bear owl homes)
Since I'm still making soup for my land whales not so much in a hurry to rearrange my world, but I will definitely check yours with more attention, to give myself ideas for when I decide to rearrange everything to add animals so I can continue the production of soup and have everything fully built, upgraded, feed and boosted.
As said earlier I soup only recipes worth 500 coins or more, that do not have bones nor fish, as these 2 items are my production line bottleneck. -
Other thing I noticed today, some of my Game Center friends are there and I can visit and get gifts, sometimes the are not visible in the list.
One example is @Mtice77, I visit sequentially my friends and do not see her, so I visit the next in the list, when scrolling to get to @Namoh I 'see' @Mtice77, so I scroll backwards and visit her, retuen to my world, scroll to @Namoh, I still see @Mtice77, but a few friends later I do not see her anymore.
2 of my more recent GC friends do the [now you see me, now you don't], plain weird
Also for my new GC friends is see their GC world at a different level than their FB world, again this is unexpected. -
Here it is: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1407202106161871

@oskray, to bad we can't see each others world anymore, would like to see your changed setup.
You can check mine by visiting A.C., only difference is that I've got 2 dreamcatchers because I accidentally build another one. :(
In the past I could see your world, somehw that changed but I've got no clue what triggered it.
@everybody, I thought I added 5 homes to my guest account, apparently I've got somewhere another guest account? I'll see if I can find it and will add some homes so you can get quickly some goodies!! -
I went looking for the meaning of soon....
soon
/so͞on/
Adverb
In or after a short time: "he'll be home soon".
Early: "it was too soon to know".
Synonyms
shortly - early - presently - anon - before long
And compared to the distant future man has ( some 4 million years before the sun burns us all to a crisp) -- I guess we should not complain, because "soon" is a short time when you look at it that way :)
I just wonder if my ---"I'll do it soon" would work on the kids for some 6 months?
I keep getting the pop up asking me to rate croods. I keep saying ask me later - I will do that "soon" (giggle- using Rovios time frame for "soon" ) -
@lucylastic, about the rating part: LOL!!!
-
Ok, let us brainstorm about what we minimal expect from the upcoming update!
I expect at least the following:
- another 20 levels
- 2 or more new lands
- 7 or more new types of animals to catch
- 2 or more characters to unlock with their own features
- 1 or 2 more Berry Bushes or different Berry Bushes
- new abilities for the BearOwls and LandWhales because they're not useful for coins because soup works 10x faster and quicker and they're doing nothing atm
- at least 1 animal with special abilities, like producing (randomly) crystals
- tons of new quests
- an increased storage for soups
- fix for seeing the correct worlds of your friends and see all your friends in the list
- a "visit next friend" button when visiting a friend so you don't need to go back to your own world first to visit another friend
- fix for the bug that you still loose crystals when you accidentally click on "Get now!" or "Fill up!" when you don't have enough food when giving it to an animal (you've got 15 berries and you tap 16 times to give a berry to a Molarbear). There should be a 2 step validation, just like they did with the crystal buttons to finish the eating process in one go (click on an animal which is eating, now you see how many food you gave him and on the left you see the amount of crystals needed to finish it directly. Click on the crystal and now you need to click again to confirm).
What would be nice:
- get a speed bonus (10%?) for all animals of the same kind once they're fully evolved and fully speed boosted.
- get another upgrade in speed level with soups for all animals (especially for the Zeavers, CatFish and Sharkodiles)
- an animal which you can feed different types of food which will produce different food depending on what you give (e.g. feed it with berries get bones, feed it with leaves get sticks).
- an animal which if placed close to other animals will give them extra speed or storage room
- possibility to "buy" crystals from coins, e.g. buy 100 crystals for 250.000 coins?
-
@Namoh, nice list
I would like to task the kids to different repetitive tasks (I would even give the kid an allowance)
- visit friends (allowance % of collected gifts)
- collect berries and feed molarbears or collect carrots and feed giraelephants or collect leaves and feed crocropup, ... (allowance either 1 crystal or 25 coins per 25 feeds)
-
@Namoh
I like your ideas :)
I think these things would be nice
Maybe the land whale could eat 500 coins and make 1 crystal but take an hour to do it ? ( for example - rovio could change this ) -
- friends list scroll position should be remembered between visits anyway, in case if you forget to press 'Next friend' button
- friend name in red if there are no gifts yet, and name in green if there are new gifts available again -
I like all three of your guys suggestions.
I was moving my animals around to make batter use of my limited space (following @Aprold Cuk's template - THX BTW) and accidentally put an egg too close to the 'slingshot' and now I can't get to it no matter what I do. Any suggestions? It's not that big of a deal, I just made another one, but...
-
@jetlabels, unfortunately you're out of luck and you are not the first: http://angrybirdsnest.com/forum/discussion/comment/114608#Comment_114608
-
@Aprold thanks again. Luckily it doesn't affect placement of any of the animals or decorations. Speaking of decorations, by copying ('cause that's just what I did) your set up, not only is everybody fully boosted, but I realized I had over 10 decorations that were no longer necessary AND now I have enough room to add some more Land Whales and Bear Owls with the freed up space.
-
@Namoh you fixed the guest to level 19 ??
If that is a Rovio account, what did you do to get guest off and Rovio ON ?I
I have 2 games running on 2 devices, with 2 FB accounts. They BOTH saw lev 1 and both views changed to lev 19. @Aprold Cuk dropped to guest for BOTH of my accounts about 10 days ago. He has graciously added 5 animals to guest, but I lament not seeing his great layout.
Maybe he could do what you did and I might get to see the real layout. -
@InHisName, I didn't do anything except adding 5 homes to my last guest account.
So anyone should see at least 5 homes now.
Does anyone know how to get nails etc in Hay Day to evolve my shed? -
Right after my post on 18th, I cycled thru neighbors and @Namoh got switched back to level ONE again. Uggghhh. You must have a obscure device you used once many moons ago that FB keeps tossing my way. It seems to be somewhat intermittently come and go.
-
@InHisName, I only have 2 devices, iphone and ipad. Both used for my level 21 game and both have aguest account with minimal 5 homes. I hope you still see 5 homes on my world?
-
@jetlabels, what I have done a couple of times when that has happened is move the animal to another spot temporarily & then move the egg & then move the animal back. I also had a skull that hid too close & ended up having to move the animal to another location temporarily move the small item & then move the animal back.
