Well, it's almost here! The Great RS Update Date! Easter is over, but it's time for spring! TL is starting off this spring with a new CM, CuddlyDragon! I wish a warm welcome to CD, and hope she enjoys herself here! This week, the new teasers are from DW. Welcome the Cosmic Soda and Robot Chef to your Restaurant soon!

1. Goals for Andriod!
2. Coin Content!
3. New Appliances!

Please also remember that updates roll out. If you do not get your update on Thursday, you will get it on Tuesday. The first rollout is on Thursday at 11am pacific time.

In the mean time, let's all get ready for The Great Update Date!

The extra click for coins and stars like the Bakery Story game is annoying. Too easy to miss either coins or stars and one reason I choose to NOT play BS.

time to reconsider stopping at level 97.

You don't have to click them, even if you go on without waiting, they are counted.

Did they decide to give us the dog instead of the robo chef?

theredchilly

04-12-12, 12:40 PM

Of course because that would only be obvious for restaurants to have a futristic robo dog why would anyone think otherwise?

I guess so, I've got the dog but no robo chef in sight.

I've read about a real life cosmic soda, there is a bar in Las Vegas, Nevada that mixes science with drinks. They put nitrogen or something like that into a drink, and it creates little balls.

Try restarting your device. If you're getting the "Get your friends to help build it" message, try clicking the top left side of the tab, then placing.

When I placed the dog I was charged gems instead of needing parts. I wasn't in a hurry and am 99.9% sure I didnt dbl click anything! I was shocked to see the gem icon show up when I placed it. Wish I had looked to see how many coins I had before I placed it.

04-12-12, 07:39 PM

I don't usually post or complain but it is really disapointing that we got an awful looking Robo Dog instead of the Chef as shown in the teaser. Was really looking forward to it. Is the chef going to ever be released? And I also hate the changes to the coins and tipping. Very irritating. Whinge over. lol =)

The bouncing stars and coins went to random people. Now it seems like everyone has them.

I used to have the bouncing stars and coins in Restaurant but not Bakery. Now I have them in both.

Someone who tipped me had something in their shop called a Bubble Pillar. Was this a limited-time thing from a previous update? I don't see anyone else with one of these, but I want one. I don't see it anywhere in my Design menu.

It's in the Magic Shell box, a 4th place prize.

Yes. And it's blocking the Orange drink in the machine. :(

I'll send this over to the CMs, find out if it's by design.

Thanks for the info, greygull!

I, personally, don't give a hoot that the new cosmic soda blocks the purely-cosmetic nozzle of a drink that you're not even making at the time. Petty, petty complaint, methinks. Glad to have a new recipe.

Heh heh heh... cosmic, cosmetic.

It's been that way for me since I got RS on my Kindle. It's kind of amusing to see others complain about it.

Of course, now, I have bouncing coins and XP on City story...wahhhh!...WAHHHH!....WAAAAAHHHHH!!!

What happens if you don't pick up the bouncing coins and stars? If you leave your bakery screen do you lose them and not get the coins and exp if you don't pick them up the second time???

Thanks for the screenshot. I'll check for any issues with the Cosmic Drink.

I checked your account in case this was an actual bug, but I don't see any recent Gem purchases listed. You used Coins to buy the Robo Dog.

I don't usually post or complain but it is really disapointing that we got an awful looking Robo Dog instead of the Chef as shown in the teaser. Was really looking forward to it. Is the chef going to ever be released? And I also hate the changes to the coins and tipping. Very irritating. Whinge over. lol =)
Sorry, there was a malfunction with the Robo Chef's on-board AI, so we had to pull him out for repairs. Luckily, the Robo Dog didn't hesitate to become a new item this week! :p
