Well they do have their facebook page because they should have a good response. I dunno about getting gems in this update because it's still slower than usual and we have to a wait a week for the daily & weekly rewards to change and the mine-cart minigame isn't gonna cut it for some of us because they're very rare and you have to use 5x multiplier to get them.

You know you can just change the time on your phone to speed things up. If that can help....

Never play this game with Assistive Touch on, it lags like Hell.

A lot of people here are complaining of loyalty-eating parasprites/changelings/bats.  I have to agree.  Here's my thoughts and observations.  I believe that, to assuage complaints about magic shards, the most recent update both made magic shards easier to get and reduced the number of magic shard foes.  The problem seems to be that the magic shards are taking up what used to be loyalty shards and what were  once magic pests are now typically loyalty pests.  Prior to the update I had roughly 910 loyalty shards and was making steady gains.  Now I'm down to almost 800.  I've bled over one-hundred shards in a week, and I have just about every available shop (missing two from SAA and one from Ponyville) and a menagerie of ponies to occupy them.  Not to mention I'm good enough at the mine cart minigame to harvest a good 20+ loyalty a day.  More when the daily quests send me to the mines.  And I'm still hemorrhaging loyalty shards!

 

Bottom line: they need to readjust the rates for loyalty shards drops and the pest spawns.

 

Also, to address those who have a quest with an absurd number--I know I have a "Play the Ball Bounce Game 60,000" quest due in about a day.  The error here, methinks, is not an absurdly high number, but rather a bug that made the event solo.  I think what gameloft was shooting for was to open up community events, where everypony's efforts would be collectively logged, but somehow it ended up being another solo event.  Hence how very impossible it is.  It's definitely a glitch, though I am looking forward to them fixing it.

I have two accounts. My lvl 70: Jamar95 My lvl 11 that I just started and need help desperately: jrex95 Also my lvl 11 I started on my new android phone and whenever I finish the mine carting game the game crashes. Anybody else experiencing this problem?

I don't have this problem on iOS...

Why do you have 2 accounts?

The lvl 70 is my ipod and the lvl 11 is on my phone. Is it possible to use one account for multiple games?

So, I was hoping to save up 3000 hearts to measure how the rewards of the social balloon pop measured up, but I got struck by the glitch where you stop receiving hearts/chests!  While I wait for gameloft to fix my glitch, I decided to go ahead and do measurements with my 1020 hearts, or 34 balloon pop games (thanks to all who gave me hearts/chests!  I really appreciate it!). 

 

So, after 34 games, here are the results:

 

Gems: 10

Bits: 1628

XP: 602

Decorations: 18

Laughter Shards: 11

Honesty Shards: 18

Generosity Shards: 23

Kindness Shards: 16

Loyalty Shards: 19

Magic Shards: 12

 

So, the odds of getting a gem in the balloon pop minigame (for hearts) is just under 30%.  Or, each heart is roughly 1/100th of a gem.  The data would have been more accurate had I been able to save up more hearts, but there's no telling how long I'll be glitched.

 

I'll still send you hearts, even if I'm currently not able to receive them.  My gameloft ID is: Z0001332536873

 

In addition to the hearts/chests glitch, I've got an odd sound glitch as well.  Sound won't play at all, unless I have headphones plugged in.  Does anyone else have this glitch?

It takes a while to get the chests, but if you're not logged in, then probably it's your connection and you won't be able to receive hearts and chests. As for the sounds, that happened to me before because probably you turned on the mute on your system settings.

 

Anyway here's my stats

 

Level 72

Bits: 5336083

Gems: 1. Spent 250 on Town Hall (finally)

Loyalty Shards: 868

Magic Shards: 272

Honesty Shards: 997

Kindness Shards: 999

Laughter Shards: 999

Generosity Shards: 999

Hearts: 3082

No, I'm connected to both the internet and gameloft, and even had a friend send a chest and heart to me.  Never received either one even after...about 17 hours now.  I'm still able to send hearts and chests, too.  I am just not receiving any.  It's a known glitch that they are working on...supposedly.

 

The sound problem isn't a factor of the phone or game settings, either.  I've toyed with both the phone's set volume and the game's volume controls.  No matter what, it never makes any sound through the phone's speakers, but with earbuds it works exactly as intended.  As far as I can tell, the glitch is that the game always "thinks" that earbuds are attached and sends the signals for sounds there, even when the headphone jack is empty.

 

Also, those numbers were the total gains from 34 games of balloon pop (hearts version), not my current holdings.  Take any of those numbers and divide by 34 to get the odds of receiving one during any game of balloon pop (hearts version).  Granted, that gives you a statistical model, not actual predictability.  Still useful, though.  Especially for gems.  I was surprised myself that one heart turns about to be, statistically, 0.0098 gems.  Essentially 1/100th of a gem.

 

P.S.  You should consider donating several hundred of those shards to their respective statues.  Every time you donate 100 shards to its respective statue, you get a chance to receive a gem.  Any shards gained after 999 are simply lost, and you are sitting on, potentially, a dozen gems or more!

There's a chance of getting a gem if you spend 30 hearts at flim flam balloon pop game. All I've been getting was exp, bits, shards, and decors there.

[boiteporte 591]

I have a lot of loyalty parasprites and changelings. But I don't seem to get any vampire bats to spawn.

That's weird.

 

Oh, and I also have the daily events all messed up. But that is probably because I change the date on my phone to speed things up.

You may want to expand the sweet apple acres to get the vampire fruit bats to spawn. as for the daily events, well time traveling is one of the possibities, but if you missed a day to claim your bonuses or time traveled back, your daily bonuses will reset back to day 1 bonuses.

[StevieBond 13]

After spending loads of hearts (that I stocked up months in advance) and chasing bats away, I finally got Babs Seed with ONE hour left to spare, talk about cutting it close! 

 

But yes, it took a LOT of Loyalty shards to do it.  :okiedokielokie:

(Note, this only applies if you're playing on an iphone/ipad)

 

There is a little switch on the side of the phone next to the volume controls, make sure its on. I only tell you this because, for the longest time, I was baffled that sound would only come out through headphones, and it turned out I had the sound turned off the whole time ><

[The Crimson Cross 7,532]

Looks like it's 50 clearable items in order to get Babs Seed. 

I think I'll have much better luck with this since clearable items are spread throughout all areas in Equestria.

As for the sound thing, I know that if you unplug earphones or turn off music whilst in the app, then the sound gets muddled and you'll likely either have to travel or restart the app.

I know, because it happens to me sometimes, I've even gone through the EQG mini game with no sound!

If you had a lot in ponyville and canterlot, you can remove them. I just did mine to get some exp.

Well, that fixed it.  Heh, guess I don't know my phone very well.

 

Also, my hearts/chests glitch was fixed...at a very heavy price.  I guess, in order to fix the problem, gameloft had to reset my game back a few days.  I lost over 60 gems, three ponies, and am inundated with pests.  Well, at least all these pests will help me recover some of the gems.  Le sigh.
