We need to breed a Hoversqueaker, but this creature is not visible in the shop. So how can we breed it, if it's not available or not even released???:confused:

I've already spent 480 gems trying to breed it. I suspect this is another clever "mistake". New year, same garbage.

I have the same issue. I reported it through the app before I realized anyone here had posted about it. I’m sure this was not done intentionally, but I spent 120 gems and really hope we are reimbursed.

This happens way too often, smells like a gem trap it happens so much :/

Does the fact that it is not in the shop mean that it cannot be bred yet? I never thought of that. I just saw the popup about it and it said to breed electric and dark (hello, long fails!) and did that immediately on both accounts, but I didn't get the Hoversqueaker.

And, welcome back, alienonacid! I was wondering if you would be back.

I have been saying this for a year now. "If" it is intentiional, it is fraud. Casinos legally have to allow certain odds. Apparently, this game, not so much.

I absolute do not mean this to sound snarky or hateful, I’m just genuinely curious - To those of you who think every glitch or error is done purposely by Storm8 to steal your money, why do you continue to play these games and give them your money?

MystiqueRealm

It's called quality control. No other game I've played has ever had an event and left out part of it! Especially a part where they know people speed breed right away, of course using gems. Once it went 5 days and we got from them "oops" 1/5 they gave some gems back, you'd think this "mistake" wouldn't be continuous if it was actually a mistake...it keeps happening!

Lots have quit. Lots more like me spend way less than we used to, some quit spending period. From being landlocked to not caring enough about events to ck for bugs before or even at release time, who was here to see it went ok? Who has yet to reply? It's been 8 hours ....they don't care. I play casually now, getting only what I really want. I've learned my lesson over the years.

Maybe it's breedable despite not being in the Market? I'm checking on this.


Aside to all: Did anyone manage to breed this?

From past experiences, most of the breedable creatures can be found in the Shop; even those unbreedable ones that are part of an event will be found there during the event.

I've tried and failed three times but have not committed any gems to speed breeding purely on the basis that it is not found in the Shop.

If it’s not breedable then that is really annoying. I don’t like spending gems but thought I’d speed breed as I saw a tip on here saying it was easier to breed animals early on. It seems that was wasted effort for 2 koala Calabria fails��

Aye they usually are in the Market. Someone probably forgot to put this in. The last time a creature wasn't in the Market was a colosseum creature and it didn't affect our battles or streaks. Which is why I am hoping this wont affect our breeding. Nevertheless I'm waiting for the Community Managers to check when they get on later on, so that with a confirmation, we can speed breed with peace of mind.

In the mean time while we wait for them to check, if anyone manage to breed this, please help to post your egg. Thank you. :)

I honestly don't think the mistakes are on purpose, but they happen so often that it doesn't matter whether it's intentional or not. There is an obvious disregard, which is offensive to me. Also, I continue to "play" this "game" because my OCD refuses to let me stop. I've tried to quit several times, but I know there's food to harvest and pixels to breed, and I am insane, so here I am. :cool:

Exactly. Not once in the past was an animal breedable that they "forgot" to put in shop. People spent hundreds last time I doubt people will keep testing it just to waste more gems knowing it's not going to happen! Let the devs test, better yet just fix it. People already wasted gems before noticing it wasn't in the shop!

That?s completely understandable, and I meant no offense :o I just see so many people accuse storm8 (not only here, but also in the Facebook group) of purposely creating these issues only to steal the player?s money, while it seems to be more of a lack-of-quality-control issue accompanied with, as you stated, a total disregard. And while I agree that both are infuriating, there?s a huge difference in blatant theft and a lack of care/effort.

Although I don?t have OCD, I do have pretty severe anxiety and this game helps calm me, so I understand the need to revisit the game constantly! I get anxious if I can?t check in every hour to harvest and battle. I obsess over it, especially when I?m waiting for a new event to begin. :)

The Hoversqueaker is in the side goal bar. Just click on the ?elf? icon. It?s been there since yesterday. It probably is not in the shop because it cannot be bought. I?ve been playing FFS since 2013. Odds are odds. I?ve probably failed far more at breeding than I?ve succeeded. Commons included. I have my gripes (expansion please), but check your side goals and see. Best of luck to everyone.

Yes sidegoals has been there, but previously if it's not in the shop it's not breedable. If side goal wasn't there none of us would even know about the animal :)

So far I’ve had three 17 hour fails in a row using Skyger and Lightening Leopard. Not spending gems to try to get it. Weird it’s not showing up in the shop.

taralynn227
01-09-19, 10:29 AM
I hope we get answers soon, because I definitely want to try to breed this one, but I don’t want to waste anymore gems until I know for sure it’s a possibility. So far I’ve had koala cadabra, elephantom, and zapra fails.

I guess they fixed it because just now the Hoversquaker appeared in the shop. Best of luck to everyone with breeding it. I personally won't spend any gems to try and get it as I have very few. I was honestly surprised to see that people actually spend money on the game, I always wondered. It's one of the most expensive games I've ever seen honestly, you don't really get that much bang for your buck imho for how expensive most stuff are and how often new stuff gets added.

I wasted 120 gems trying to breed this animal when it wasn’t available, and I know others spent a lot more than I did. How does 5000 food (which costs less than 20 gems if bought and can be acquired in a few hours without real money) make up for that? That’s not even a significant amount of food. Barely enough to feed an animal up a few levels. :mad:

I guess 5000 food is better than nothing, not too far from the 29 gems I wasted.
It would have been nicer to have an apology rather than a ?thanks for patience? however I appreciate the gesture.
Just got another 17 hour fail unfortunately.

Yes, we all should have received it. You have to go to the left side of your game and click on the picture of the girl - this is where your goals show up. Scroll down until you find the goal, hit "collect," and voila! you will have 5000 food.

My old account doesn't have it yet, and I'm nowhere near unlocking community prizes. It looks like all that account will get is the Flowler, which it already has.
New account is close to unlocking community prizes - just got the second points giving deco. I should reach the Draft Horse, but I know the Cygnace is out of reach unless I do some speed breeding or buy a value package. Unfortunately both value packs include animals I already have, not just once, but actually have duplicates of, so I *really* don't want to spend money on them. However, at this point, I also don't have a lot to speed breed for - all I'm missing are some crystal hybrids as far as what can be bred, unless any of the animals currently on sale can be bred.

Fantasy Forest, why can't I quit you?!? (Brokeback Mountain reference) Same here. Well, not the OCD, I don't think, but more of an addiction. I talked to a therapist about it and how I spend way too much time playing games and not enough time doing the things I need to do, and I told him how these games are designed to keep you hooked by constantly feeding our reward system in our brains (Yay, I bred a Super Rare animal! Yay, I "won" 5000 food! Yay, I finished the event in time! etc.). So, even though I know what the trick is, I haven't been able to give up the games, yet. I continue to pump time and money into this company that does a half-you know what job. :( Rynetory is very on top of things. She should be staff (I don't know that she has any programming s****s, and I think she lives in Britain, so I know it isn't realistic) because she would make sure stuff worked before she let it roll out to the public.
