Once upon a time.... a lovely elderly pair of geese live in a little cottage in a farm. Every morning, Papa Goose goes outside to fetch his morning newspapers while Mama Goose puts the kettle on and prepares breakfast. This morning, Papa Goose took a glance at the newspapers and fell on the ground, thumping his webbed feet non stop. Mama Goose came rushing out to help her sweetheart when she heard the loud thud.

Hmmmm... I wondered what shocking news has Papa Goose read....

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44575


After Mama Goose put Papa Goose to bed with a cup of chamomile tea to soothe him, she picked up the papers to find out... While reading the news of a goose messing up the chickens of nearby farms, she thought "Oh dear, no wonder Gus has been missing the last couple of days!". She then went outside the cottage and gave her loudest squawk to summon their playful son, Gus, home!

Gus reluctantly returned home upon hearing his mother's cry. Mama Goose saw how dirty he was and ordered him in her sternest voice to head straight to the bath. Gus jumped up and down in protest for a few minutes but eventually, he gave in and went for a bath obediently. No goose says no to his mother.

(This was really a fluke screenshot as Gus happened to appear at that spot by pure chance!)

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44576


Meanwhile in nearby farms... news of Gus's departure travelled fast through the chatter vines of the chickens, with them being such a chattery lot. Feeling relieved and delighted, the chickens got busy cleaning their coops and swept away the stinky feathers which amounted to a huge feather pile. They cleaned and decked themselves in their finest beads and pretty feathers and held a bonfire party to celebrate that very night.

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44608


The next day, Mama Goose was pleasantly surprised to find a basket of lovely eggs and gifts outside their cottage, compliments from the chickens for saving them from playful Gus.

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44609


A week later.....

Mama Goose saw that they had a new neighbour, a friendly Beagle who came to live on the farm.

As for Gus... he stayed home under the watchful eyes of Papa and Mama Goose. (Oh well at least for now.... until his next wild adventure! :p)

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44610


And they all lived happily ever after..... :D

The End.


Cast: Papa Goose, Mama Goose, Gus, Chickens and Beagle
Costumes and props: Farm Story 2 designers
Produced by: Farm Story 2 team
Directed by: Rynetory2

Disclaimer: No animals were harm in any way during this production. Definitely no testings on animals.


Back in real life.... several months of peaceful farm life went by......

One fine morning, Papa Goose went out to fetch his papers... he fell down once again, as if history repeated itself. "Not again! What had Gus done this time?" Mama Goose thought to herself.

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=44575

When Papa Goose finally recovered from his shock, the elderly couple sat on couch and continued to read the news.

Apparently the production has been nominated in the Foscars Awards (Planet Farm 2's equivalent to Oscars Awards on Earth). Gus has been nominated for the Best Actor and the production has been nominated for having the Best Audience. They both were so overjoyed and quickly went to share this news with the chickens. No news travel faster than the chicken chatter vines! ("ccv" rivals the "www" on Earth lol)



A month later at the Foscars Awards ceremony, the production won the Best Audience Award but sadly for Gus, he lost out to the "Snow White and the 7 Gnomes". He was a little disappointed but very determined to make his next wild adventure even better.

Special acknowledgements from Rynetory2 to the Audience who posted and also those who supported silently. "Many thanks for your huge appreciations to this humble production! This wouldn't had been made without your awesome support! You guys are the best!! :D:D"

gus appears randomly on the farm. you can see it (grey goose) jumping up and down when it appears. it is not very big (in my opinion) so you might need to pay a little closer attention when you look around the farm. there are also ways to try to trap gus by filling your farm up with decorations and only leave 1 open space, which will be where gus will show up every time.

as far as "pages"...i'm not too sure what you are talking about. but i know the grey bear plushie looking things will drop randomly when you complete deliveries. the drop rate isn't too great for me yet, only got 3 from like 20-30 deliveries, so may have to be a bit patient. :)

Leave Toys in the Beagle Bungalow
0/3
(Watch for the Beagle to come back!)

But I'm not sure how to interpret this. Leave a toy in the one-time use Beagle Bungalow? And again with the one received for completing Wild Gus Chase 2/9? And a third one after that? I'm not sure if it's worth it, in that case...

I think you have to feed 3 dog houses 1 time each. I just fed 1 dog house and harvested it. The goal now says 1/3. I won't be spending 25 gems for the third bungalow, since the reward is only $200 and 3 stars. I'm saving the one I received from the chasing Gus goals as a decoration.

You got that right! So tired of how bad the drop rates are lately on Farm Story 2 games and challenges. I have done 5 rounds of 8 chickens and not a single stinky feather...was beginning to wonder where to actually get them! On to the next game...already done. If I can't complete one goal, what's the point.

Have you tried either my or judyandthecat's suggested techniques for spotting pop-up "visitors" to the farm? We both mentioned them during the Gnome event a few months ago. It's up to you to chose which option to use:

- push everything to the edges so that it is easy to spot the goose (it will only be able to manifest somewhere in the wide, open space you create
- fill in as much as you can with decorations, trees, etc., so that it has only a very finite space to appear in.

It is possible the goose is appearing, but it is being hidden by the buildings and decorations. I know I have trouble finding it, despite that I have created clear lines of sight where it must appear (my farm layout WAS working, but this event has me thinking I need to reorganize again).

try clicking on your butterfly, fish, and beaver THEN look for the goose. i find that it appears pretty much right after i do that. i also notice that if i don't click on the goose once it appears, it disappears again and doesn't show for the remainder of my "session," i.e. i'll have to force quit and restart the game and start over. this was true for me when we were looking for gnomes, too. just a thought. :)

For goal 6 you have to make 4 of each item. That is what is making me think the last few goals will all be similar.

try clicking on your butterfly, fish, and beaver THEN look for the goose. i find that it appears pretty much right after i do that. i also notice that if i don't click on the goose once it appears, it disappears again and doesn't show for the remainder of my "session," i.e. i'll have to force quit and restart the game and start over. this was true for me when we were looking for gnomes, too. just a thought. :)

Thanks guys! Yes, I'm employing gnome strategy, but this one's not working as well. That is, I'm force closing and re-opening slot, and then clicking my me then butterflies (no otter for me). I can't really move much to the edges cuz I'm out of space, so maybe I'm just missing the guy. I've had 3 visits total, so it might also be that I've missed him and then he just remains elsewhere for my long session. OK will keep at it.

There is a rescue pen in the market. I did not win the pets from the LB so I am hoping this is the habitat for the beagle.

that's what was supposed to happen. the purpose of the bungalow is help us with materials for the "real" wild gus chase. the bungalow is a one time use tool: feed the 5 toys, it's ready in 10 minutes, click on it and the bungalow turns into materials. what materials you get is totally random though...

One quick question though about the bungalows. So, we get one from them, but the 2/2 Beagle Buddy quest wants us to do the whole toy thing 3 times, so unless I use gems for 2 more bungalows...I'm pretty much stuck right here on this particular quest. Correct?

the first bungalow gives you 25 gems so you can buy a second bungalow, then the third bungalow is the prize for completing step 2, so you only need the 25 gems total for all three.

She is part of a side goal that appears when you reach goal 5 (if I remember correctly) pf the main quest. You get her after completing the first part of that side goal. Once you get her you pull her out of the cellar and give her a manual and two hours later she will give you a couple items that you can use for the quest (:

nah. the bungalow side goal has 2 steps, with the main purpose of teaching you how to use a bungalow if you want to get extra parts. Each bungalow costs 25 gems to buy and gives you some parts (golden eggs for the most part) once you give it 5 dog toys. You have to complete the "real" 9-step main quest to get the beagle. :)


Also, where do you get the parts for the book?? It says Gus...... Gus? The beagle? I must be getting super confused.
gus is the grey goose that shows up on your farm and randomly drops golden eggs or torn pages when you click on it. so yes, the torn pages come from gus.


50 gems. Three times 25 gems is 75 minus the 25 they give you back. Do you get anything besides parts?

try checking the newspaper more frequently, i've been seeing more binoculars being sold.

also -- disclaimer: this is by no means a proven method, just personal opinion -- i'd say just craft as many of those dinner roll looking things as possible. each only takes 4 minutes. crafting a bunch of these would allow you the maximal number of tries to get a binocular when you collect. and the dinner rolls sell pretty easily at market price, so you shouldn't have any trouble clearing up your barn after that. hope this helps.

Crafting those ahead of time is a good idea! It will save you time and clear up your barn.
I would also recommend that you try to check the newspaper often. Binoculars and feathers are rare to find but some people are selling them. I have found that many people who are selling binoculars are also selling feathers so make sure to visit their shop.

After Mama Goose put Papa Goose to bed with a cup of chamomile tea to soothe him, she picked up the papers to find out... While reading the news of a goose messing up the chickens of nearby farms, she thought "Oh dear, no wonder Gus has been missing the last couple of days!". She then went outside the cottage and gave her loudest squawk to summon their playful son, Gus, home!

Gus reluctantly returned home upon hearing his mother's cry. Mama Goose saw how dirty he was and ordered him in her sternest voice to head straight to the bath. Gus jumped up and down in protest for a few minutes but eventually, he gave in and went for a bath obediently. No goose says no to his mother.

Absolutely, once again starts to stress you rather than relax you.. 12 chickens and no feathers or one or two at a drop.. and so many back packs to make. Please can they drop more it spoils the fun. Or reduce the price of your offers 15.00 is a lot for a few parts. Please...so love this game but always seems to be something that makes it stressful.

I am not sure I understand this. For the last 5 goals, there is an incremental increase in the number of the SAME items to be given? I have 1 more stinky feather to get for the 2nd of 3 Tracker Kits for Goal 5, and then I have one more before I can complete this goal, only to have 4, then 5, 6, and 7 more to finish? That means, after finishing this Tracker Kit I will somehow need to come up 345 more Stinky Feathers? Not to mention all the Twine, Rhinestones, Twigs, and Golden Eggs I'm going to need. I do not understand the logic...or rather, I do not like it.

(Speaking of logic...how in the world does doing these goals involving a goose connect to winning a Beagle? Not that I'm upset about the chance to win a new pet, but I don't get the connection. It would make sense if we were trying to catch a Goose to be a pet...)

I can keep doing all the tasks, but having such a low drop rate is really very discouraging. One Stinky Feather per 12 chickens is a bit low, even if they can be collected from about every 30 minutes. But the other items are dropping equally rarely. Please, tweak the drop rate just a little?

Is it just me, or was there a deadline for getting the torn newspapers for Gus - I can’t finish the side goal and haven’t seen them to buy from neighbors or in the newspaper? I’m frustrated about the stinky feather drop rate like others, but thought I could finish the side goal as they were dropping the first couple of days, so step one was ok, but now it dropped and I can’t complete the second part.

Ive now realised that I definitely will not be able to finish! I need 344 stinky feathers... at the rate of 1 from my 8 chickens each half hour (though the last egg collection yielded no feathers), 16 waking hours = 32 stinky feathers per day at best - more likely 20-24. I’m thinking it will take me about 15 days to finish.
No, I am not going to spend real money on this one, because the $15 pack doesn’t even have enough stinky feathers to do one back pack!
So disappointing when you realise that you have no chance! If only there were different things to craft, so that the dreadful stinky feathers weren’t such a major road block.

You need to tap mother goose and give her a book and it will show you how many books you have.

and yes, the increasing # and the terrible drop rate of feathers (aptly named stinky) are making me insane as well. i'm just hanging on & slowly chipping away at the goals while praying for some miracle next week, either with a tweak in drop rate or people selling off stinky feathers, to hopefully complete the event before time's up. nothing more to do at this time since it's the weekend - a long weekend nonetheless - so no one will be at storm8 to do anything anyway. just gotta keep fingers crossed. :rolleyes:

Even if you paid money to complete this - it would cost you a small fortune to get 15 stinky feathers to complete ONE backpack! And at a drop rate of none to two every half hour - you can’t complete it without spending a lot of real money. Nah - this is just another impossible one that I will just walk away from until the game is over. Oh well - I don’t need to spend so much time on this game anyway.

I disagree. The event is optional as well and we can buy and sell items. If you don't win you can at least win some cool decorations and there will be another event soon and a chance to win another pet.

Remember, if you are buying the 9.99 bonus pack you are helping keep the game up. I'm sure that it costs a lot of money to hire designers and developers to maintain the game/make events. Storm8 games are free and when you donate $9.99 this could help a lot!

To get beagle, I need 330 more stinky feathers. my 8 hens give about 2 for every 2 times I collect. So 115 collections. If I manage to collect 10x/day (more time than I want to spend on this but just for sake of calculating) I will gather about 80 feathers in the remaining 8 days, so I would need 25 of their kits to finish at $10 each (and they stopped selling them!). That?s $250. For a game farm pet??? Seriously???

I was so excited after the last event, it was back to the way they used to be. Us being able to help each other out & the Hedgehog was easier to obtain. But with this event Storm8 went back to making it unobtainable & frustrating! I’ve collected from the chickens 28 times & not 1 stink’n stinky feather, ridiculous! Again, I don’t mind spending real money but I want to feel like I’m getting something in return. Storm8 please make this fun again before you loose a lot of customers!

Gripe alert: the Stinky Feathers drop rate stinks! And this event is boring by making the same things over and over...and of course endlessly collecting from and feeding the chickens.

Meanwhile in nearby farms... news of Gus's departure travelled fast through the chatter vines of the chickens, with them being such a chattery lot. Feeling relieved and delighted, the chickens got busy cleaning their coops and swept away the stinky feathers which amounted to a huge feather pile. They cleaned and decked themselves in their finest beads and pretty feathers and held a bonfire party to celebrate that very night.

the torn pages are random drops from gus (the grey goose).
the manual itself is crafted in the outpost (3 pages per manual).
once crafted and collected, the manual is stored in an invisible cloud (i.e. NOT in the inventory). you can see how many manuals you have by clicking on the mother goose; this is also how you give mother goose the manual.

the mother goose is the prize you won on step 4 of the main quest. you can find her in the cellar. you need to place her on the farm to do the above ^^^.

The beagle is cute. The goose is obnoxious, and the chickens, well, let's just say we are no longer on speaking terms because they are so uncooperative. I don't have the time to devote to collecting items when the drop rate is so random and low. I'll still go about my usual business, and as I find items, I'll sell them to help others.

YES, it is totally safe to make the nests and geese in advance. it's actually a really good idea to do so, so that you are ready to turn them in whenever and just have to focus on getting those stingy feathers. :p you just have to keep track of how many you have made yourself, since they don't show up in inventory.

also, i've seen a lot of rhinestones on sale in the newspaper. it may be a good idea to try to get them that way if you're low on mining tools. :)

The beagle is cute. The goose is obnoxious, and the chickens, well, let's just say we are no longer on speaking terms because they are so uncooperative. I don't have the time to devote to collecting items when the drop rate is so random and low. I'll still go about my usual business, and as I find items, I'll sell them to help others.

I AM glad we have new events, and I'm glad some are successful with this one.

Good attitude (thank you, I was slipping into a negative mode) and I agree it is nice to have new events, event if I don?t complete them all or get all the cute pets!

The stink feathers drop rate is very slow, many times only receiving 1 when collecting from my 8 chickens. Because of this, I'm on goal 7 instead of finished like so many others are. Seems I'll have to find these feathers in the newspaper. At this rate, I'm not sure if I'll make it to the last goal without spending coins.

Is it possible to increase the drop rate for these feathers, please? Thank you!

I?m on goal 7 too and struggling with the stinky feathers...not finding ANY in the newspaper or from my many awesome neighbors even with constant checking. I won?t spend real coins in the game so probably won?t get a beagle but am plodding along. Good luck!

Pls help.
I just got my beagle in the cellar.
It said i need a rescue pen. But the rescue pen can't be bought. It is locked n said "goal".
What should i do ? Pls

Never mind.
He's out now. He s soo cuteee. Oh im so happy with all the prizes in this event.
Big thx Storm8.
Hope everyone can get the dog too.
Good luck. I got my beagle, too, now I can take a vacation from the stress of these events. I did not have to buy any gems, a neighbor helped me with over 20 feathers, and I constantly checked the newspaper, and stores. I was very determined. I used Alexa for the 30 minute timer. Good luck!!!!

I found someone this morning selling 80 stinky feathers and they already had their beagle. I finally was able to make the last tracker's kit. Before I turn in the last item can someone tell me if the event items stop dropping after you get the beagle? Is they do stop I may hold off a little longer to turn it in so I can harrass the chickens a little longer.

I'm glad some of you are successful. Congrats!! Glad to hear he's cute. I have been checking the newspaper stalker style and visiting random community members, but no luck all day yesterday on feathers. I am holding out hope that they up the drop rate the last day or so. It is so off! I'm done with everything else. I think most people are judging by the amount of rhinestones and twigs in the paper. This was an odd one for sure!

All your guides, etc make the game much easier for new comers.


Ryn, you're awesome! Love the story! It's ... it's like fanfic for Farm Story 2! Hysterical! Nicely done. Especially the credits!


Love your stories and your sense of humour!!:o


Nice story, Rynetory!


Love that story, cheers this quest up as we mostly come here to complain.. lol

The curtains rise....

The cast returns to the stage to bow to the audiences for being so appreciative and supportive!! Thank you so much!! :D:D

(ummm.... my apologies for Papa Goose still hiding under the papers. He is extremely camera shy and his aged knees buckle so much with stage fright that he can't stand up.)

Oh look! Is that Gus flapping his wings in attempt to escape for his next wild adventure?!

On goal 6.
To get beagle, I need 330 more stinky feathers. my 8 hens give about 2 for every 2 times I collect. So 115 collections. If I manage to collect 10x/day (more time than I want to spend on this but just for sake of calculating) I will gather about 80 feathers in the remaining 8 days, so I would need 25 of their kits to finish at $10 each (and they stopped selling them!). That?s $250. For a game farm pet??? Seriously???
Storm8, I think you may want to address the problem your users have called to your attention.


And this is why I?m throwing in the towel and will focus on my train and truck deliveries. I don?t need a new dog anyways. I?ve about 6 in storage waiting to come out and this one isn?t THAT cute! The quantities needed are absurd and it?s becoming like dragon story. Making quantities needed outrageous so you feel compelled to spend money. IF you really want the pet/dragon. No thanks!

That?s awesome for you,
my current drop rate means I can make 1-1.5 trackers kit a day. I need 3 kits to complete lvl 7 then lvl 8 and 9, I was able to buy a few stinky feathers in the newsstand over several days but now nothing when I would have thought as more people are finishing up more people would be selling,

I am sorry if my post sounded like I was greedy and took all the feathers that were being sold that was not the case. I only needed a couple of sets and then I took one more because I knew a neighbor was looking for stinky feathers. I left most of the feathers in the sellers shop for other players to also benefit from their hard work. I sold the extra feathers to the neighbor and have continued to collect from the chickens. I have no idea why there isn't more feathers showing up in the newspaper. Possibly everyone who finished is sick and tired of way too many eggs in the barn and/or throwing them away so the eggs don't tie up shop space. It feels like I throw away a 1000 eggs. I know it wasn't that many but it was a lot.

I never thought I?d say it but my Stinky Feather drop rate has worsened! 1 feather from 3 collections (12 chickens) - that is 1 Stinky Feather and 36 Eggs!!! It is definitely over for me now.
I also have not had any pages from Gus for the past 2 days.
Congrats everyone who got the beagle - I honestly have no idea how anyone can do it!

Oh no, I actually thought that that was a great find for you from your neighbor, I know I would have been excited, so I really did mean that it would have been awesome to finish like that.
. I’m frustrated with my drop rate and the no show of feathers in the market, but wouldn’t think you were greedy as I would have done the same ��

Earlier today the feathers seemed to come a bit easier but then stopped completely. I just collected from my chickens for the 9th time without a single feather. I spent $20 last night buying 2 of the offered packs as I knew it was the only way I could possibly finish the event. I can?t afford to buy it a 3rd time and now I?m just stuck. I?m checking the paper constantly with little luck. I?m very discouraged 😔

Is there a way to go back to the farm you last visited? Saw someone selling stinky feathers in the newspaper. Visited their farm to see they’re selling 50 stinky feathers. I was only able to buy 30 because I have no barn space left. I forgot to add as neighbor before I went back to my farm to sell items from my barn. I’m still on 7/9 so I badly need those feathers.

Visit farms in newspapers particularly those who sold event items even if you did not buy from them. Chances are they also sell stinky feathers. Add as neighbor those who are done with the event, they most likely sell stinky feathers. Visit the community, lots of people there who might have stinky feathers. I started and completed 8/9 today doing these and I’m now starting to make my 1/7 kits to get the beagle.

also maybe try posting in the buy/sell thread. i saw a few people there getting a lot of help from their post. and i agree with akireznarf's methods; that's how i found a lot of feathers, too. i obsessively visited every farm/store whenever i saw a "visit" button in the newspaper for a few days....:p g'luck and rooting for you guys! :)

Really disappointed in this event. On level 7, 11 hours to go. And I am off to work. Visited neighbors for days, kept checking sale items, and visiting those who had sold items. Still no stinkin feathers. Congrats to those who succeeded. But it wont be me. This event seemed impossible if you have to work. Not enough time to shop, the feather drop rate was horrible, and to have to craft the same items over and over. Even mother goose just gave me items I already had not what was most needed. Sorry for the whining folks. I have not completed events before but this is the first one I felt I ever had a chance.

Spent all weekend and most of yesterday and all of this morning trying to finish the kits. No stinking feathers. Non-stop searching for the feathers but to no avail. I can?t waste any more time on this event and am off to work. Just too impossible to complete as drop rate for feathers was non-existsent. How many eggs did you collect?? Hundreds?? This was a fail for me. I did like the geese in the pond prize but other than that this was A LOT OF TIME WASTED to not complete the goal. Shame. But congrats to those that did succeed. Good job.
