Sneak Peek & Musings of what it might be about

[marse66]

Yep. Wish they could give us more notice. Could be cooking or crafting or collecting but always hold off on Thursdays just in case...

[jopik]

Every thing seems to be hush hush , with the re- release of the summer gazebo I will be suprized if we get an up date
Values package may be
Again disappointing value pack decor for cash only?

Lol, nah, prolly a bundle of wool or woven cloth or bolts of fabric (for those finishing the summer gazebo)...oh, & 100+ energy, for cash lol :p

Yep, you're probably exactly right about woven cloth or bolts of fabric. ;) although I think I remember that they have given different packages to different players depending on... I don't know what. Lol maybe those of us who did the gazebo last year will get a different package. ;) even if so, it's usefulness might still be questionable. ;)

[Liloze]

I really hope / wish/ want / expect/ EXPANSIONS ;)
Please S8 my queendom looks like a can of Sardine🐟💨 :o

[PikaSquirrel]

There will be an update today, not expansions though. :P

[Liloze]

no expansions :(
But Update Yaaay, thanks Pika :)
Hopefully a continuation of the storyline then ;)

[NorthWoodsKingdom]

LOL! Oh great, and I collected most everything already, expecting a bundle I don't need, lol.
Oh well... Yayyyy for an update! :thumbs up:

[tuffyjkitten]

Hopefully I can take part in this one. And that it doesn't require silver as I am all out. Otherwise I will just keep plugging along with the goddess tree storyline.

I left a lot of things uncollected today but I wasn't so smart yesterday and planted felllora crops. I'm hoping the update doesn't involve planting today. Lol

[PurpleScorpion76]

I'm just trying to remember did we get a mid update for the summer gazebo? Or was that just the midsummer pyre tent?

[Liloze]

I left a lot of things uncollected today but I wasn't so smart yesterday and planted felllora crops. I'm hoping the update doesn't involve planting today. Lol

I was an idiot and I planted 5 of the Fellora today lol :o And 5 from yesterday lol

[mreames]

I'm just trying to remember did we get a mid update for the summer gazebo? Or was that just the midsummer pyre tent?

Probably not since it would have been on the 3rd of July but I'm not sure. I didn't see an update when I googled that date. Lol

[mreames]

Lol if that makes you an idiot, I don't know what my planting of 59 of them yesterday makes me. ;) hahaha

Oh my 59 ! :eek:
Well you know you can store the plots and bring them back out, that would clear them all for new crops :)
I do hope for your sake we won't be needing to plant anything before 2 days :)

Yes, I know I can do that but I'm not rich at the moment and I hate to throw away felllora crops. Lol but I would need less than a day before they are ready at least. :) but, yeah, I've been hoping no crops necessary. ;)

[mreames]

Lol, nah, prolly a bundle of wool or woven cloth or bolts of fabric (for those finishing the summer gazebo)...oh, & 100+ energy, for cash lol :p

Too funny! Maybe you should buy a lottery ticket today.

Interestingly, I have a slightly different offer. The wool and energy, yes, but mine includes 2 glimmer rock formations instead of the beams. On both my accounts. Same price.

[OnlyOneRamoth]

I did! but it is gone now!! Was that the whole thing?

[roguebee]

May have been a hint for the long awaited expansions...

[OnlyOneRamoth]

Big update coming? Good thing I have been saving for Tinker.

[madeinseattle]

I got that notice on my iPad too... Yes..more expansions:)

[OnlyOneRamoth]

Of course...tickets duh.

[scarletdragon18]

Hoping for expansions! Just in case though I'm saving my trade tickets since I just got back up to 30. :)

[kikilicious74]

Baha'i am almost ready for more expansions. Just need two permits until I'm finished all the other ones!!��

[DragonWished]

No notice on either platform.

[xanethi]

Got the same notice. Far from having fully expanded yet but happy for those that need it if it is expansions. Only got 13 tickets so far so do not Think it is a lot but Will not make any expansions permits until after thursday even if i get enough for it

[Liloze]

Got no notice except for the the Baron's Tent old/new items...
But I hope the next update would be expansions :)

Plenty of E.P. to use lol

[orleansparish]

I need one more expansion permit to do my third to last expansion. Then I'll store everything again and try to fit all the important buildings everywhere and some pretty decor. I'm so tired of doing trades. I wish there was another way to expand. Needing four and five permits per square is tiring. I just hope they don't go insane and ask for 6 or more.

[Liloze]

I hope not but I am sure they will ask for 5 E.P./ square
The very next day, if not the same day, the bundles with Trade tickets ( yes not EP) with some other stuff, for $10 each, will pop up.
Business as usual for S8 !

[kooky panda]

No word yet if an update is scheduled. Merging this thread with the general update discussion thread.

[napertown]

I sure hope expansions are in the plans. They've been saying it's coming for a while now. Just got my 500th trade ticket today so I should be able to fully expand again only to hopefully not wait another 6 months.

Have fun expanding!

[SpiritWind00]

If anyone's looking for the grape event thread, it's over in Bugs forum temporarily..... ;)

[mreames]

I can't help but wonder why they say have trade tickets ready, not permits. It makes me wonder if it's more than just expansions..... I mean in addition to expansions. ;)

[NorthWoodsKingdom]

Anybody happen to snap a pic of this mysterious pop-up? I didn't get it, just the one about the tent.
No pic-proof?, didn't happen. LOL

[mreames]

I don't have a pic but there are multiple witnesses. Lol

I didn't see a pop up either, but there was a note in the notifications area on my ipad. I think it had a flower emoji next to it? Tried to recreate it, but it wouldn't come back on the screen. :)

[meme1098]

Not an in-game popup but a notification along with other CS notifications. It did have a few emojis in the notification as SW stated.

[SpiritWind00]

News Flash! Just had confirmation that there is an update coming this week. No idea what it is, but I know we are all wishing with everything that can be crossed, that it's expansions.

Thank you, SW, for sharing all information so quickly:) Lol, this update had better not be just about the B Tent...:eek::rolleyes:

[idrispad]

Not just expansions... Expansions down to the mystery temple type thing!

[lilyjeanne464]

Maybe you will be able to use trade tickets in exchange for prizes in the Baron's tent

[BlackRat2]

Being able to buy a second tinker camp would be nice, or more workshops.

[luna2cute]

I didn't get any pop ups or anything. Glad others are talking about it so I can be on board!! Thanks all! :)

[luna2cute]

I only have less than 30 trade tickets. Is it trade tickets or expansion permits? I haven't fully expanded yet so maybe this won't matter for me. Hmmmm...what to do what to do...

[burritosprings]

If its just expansions then its just keeping on churning out Trade tickets to convert to Expansion Tickets.. no big surprise there.. I think someone earlier said something about Baron Tent and tickets.. kind find that hard to believe.. like using Sister Sister inscriptions to finish that one stupid goal..

LOL. Good point! Thanks. :)

[mreames]

It said to have your trade tickets ready. That's why I wondered out loud why it said trade tickets and didn't say permits. It made me wonder if there will be something besides (in addition to..) expansions. Someone else speculated about the tent.

Trade tickets can be used to upgrade the Royal Chateau also.. so I think they meant to say.. is start making some trade tickets and you will need the ones you have for expansion permits.. I see in no possible way with all the Cray Cray that has happened in the last 6 to 8 months.. they will require us to divert Trade tickets to anything other then expansions.

[zoeee87]

I just got a notification asking if I was ready to wisp through the forest.. Play on words? Wisp!!!

[mreames]

Are you ready to wisp away through the forest? Be on the lookout this Thursday! iPad pop up not in game. So yes, I'd be shocked if there aren't expansions coming this week. ;)

[BuddyB111]

I just got a message in my table's notification bar asking me if I was ready to go tiptoeing through the forest (or something like that). There was more but I couldn't read it because only a set number of characters are visible in the notification bar.

Edit: Wish I could type faster!

I don't have much forest left as is. ;) The deforestation isn't pretty. How about some fresh planted trees outside the kingdom?

That would be great. I have way more of those than expansion permits.

Day changed half an hour ago in the game and I got nothing about new update.
Do some of you have infos? I never had the disappearing flash info that everybody talks about, so I don't want to miss things.

I woke up on purpose for day change.

the updates are linked to Pacific time, I think. They appear at 12:00 p.m. (12:00 p.m. in LA ) For me that is 9:00 at night. But it will depend on where you live. I think the flash info is from notifications which you would have to turn on in the game settings. I don't get them either so am going to try that.

[Eilann]

My notifications are turned on except for castle visits but I never received them, so gave up on that.
But i usually receive the flash infos about updates like the Christmas sale, so ill probably get this one at some point too. :)

I'm having difficulties converting hours, so I always take day change as reference point with my neighbors. For those who won't understand what im talking about:
Its the moment where you're allowed to send gifts and collect hearts again.
And also the moment when you receive your daily gold.
I suppose its a fixed one, and we only have different hours for it depending on where we live.

I thought new updates were given at day change moment, but looks like its later in the day. 10hours after that according to Star Wars. (hihi SpiritWind, everybody calls you SW, but for me its Star wars abbreviation, hope you won't mind me calling you that, Ill do it only once for the joke xD)

I think it'll be easier for people to calculate from that :)

[Blanche_Lady]

Thx for the pic-proof, Lorrainne. :)

Not sure that constitutes anything "big" that was reported earlier in this thread though, unless we're finally heading southeast to the cherub dome-throne thingy & getting our overdue crowns! LOL

It would be ok with me if moderators here deleted all the old musings to make it easier to see what's most current!!

I'm hoping there's expansion to the coast and a shipping port we can build there. ��

I have 2 accounts and they have different offers. One is 3 permits, 15 lanterns, ant 1000 coins. For 19.99. The other is for 50 trade tickets, 15 lanterns, and 150000 for 9.99. Witch is the better deal?

Ignore the money [Edit: I mean the coins]. 3 permits are 90 tickets, so the one for 50 trade tickets is better.

[mybunnytail]

Ignore the money. 3 permits are 90 tickets, so the one for 50 trade tickets is better.
YES it is! for $19.98 ( 2 at 9.99 each = 19.98) you get 100 trade ticket (turn into 3 permits and have 10 left) 30 Lanterns and 300000 coins.

We are probably due a 2/3 part storyline update over the next week or two and then we will probably have a limited time quest (the smaller kind). TL/S8 likes spacing things out. :p

Yes there was a line in the Notifications area of my iPad too, but I wasn't quick enough to see what it said either! Maybe I'll see it again tomorrow. Someone else post if you see it too!

No, it's not out yet... Goals come out at the same time each week - about 2 days from now.

I agree, those faerie are super cute and no, I don't recognise that kingdom either. 'Hunt it down', that's funny! I love these additional little sneak peeks, it makes it fun again to see what might be happening soon. Bring on update day!

[luna2cute]

Oooo, faeiries!

I wonder what mayhem they will bring with them to our kingdoms?

*Anticipation*

[lovecaitcait]

In the spirit of hunting I would like to point out that the quest likely has something to do with someone named Lila (is that a name we've heard before? I can't recall). Aggwynn's screenshot is titled "lilaisthatyou.jpg" and for the last one with "Mom" it was titled "momisthatyou.jpg" (see here: http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?81979-Castle-Story-05-28-15-Update-Emergency!-Mom-s-coming-to-town-EXPIRED/page18) so it stands to reason....

(Edit: lol, silly me, I remember reading about all that team business now... sigh. I thought I had something there - guess I'll just have to be excited and wait along with the rest)

[kittensabc]

It's probably not even a real kingdom. :( I mean, they probably test the features on a system separate from the main "world" so I doubt we will ever get to see it. :(

I also noticed a 7 day sale on something in the screenshot. Lol any guesses now that we can't say grapes, corks or barrels? ;) Lol

It won't need 30 to **** it. The nastier the monster, the higher the number, but each stroke of the sword counts for more too. I nearly had a heart attack when I got the 90 monster! I came on here for advice and someone explained this to me. :)


I got the offer pack and the Baron's announcement, but no new expansions. I'm not at the maximum amount of expansions though, so I don't expect to see the new ones just yet.

Something else I won't be reaching for a while, but good luck to the advanced players. I hope it's more enjoyable for everyone and less controversial than Boarina.

[dezzzila]

What level would you finish Kaz's story line?

[mcb397]

I'm at level 46 and I just finished it today. I think it's different for everyone though. It depends on how you play.

[8hat]

I was already 50 when that (Kaz) came out...it was the first storyline update I got to do when it came out. But, I could see someone getting there by low to mid 40's (probably closer to mid).

[tigarlilyvol]

Finished it at level 43 on my second kingdom but was able to advance faster the second time around

[BuddyB111]

Not done the Kaz storyline yet, so I'll have to wait, but looking forward to seeing what is involved!

[candie1230]

I got two new offers, both four days on their timer. One 100000 gold, three expansion tickets, and 15 lanterns; the other two mythic mushrooms, 22 cabbages, and 100 energy... Did everyone get them and is that all we get for the week??? I was hoping for an update and a continuation of something.

EDIT: Ahhhhhhh, I don't have that **** girl boar thing done yet...**** you skunkupies!!!!!!!

[meme1098]

There's an update but you have to be past the Kaz goals.. See the thread for today's update

UGH! Sounds like a waste of time. Beating up monsters has to be the most tedious part of the game. The description in the App store suggests that in the end, you exchange tokens, which you earn by ****ing monsters, for decorations.

Well, I have to fight some monsters for the good witch line, so at least I'll **** two birds (monsters) with one stone.

It depends on what the "fabulous prizes" are. If it's just the statues that are mentioned in the end and are just decorations, then yeah, probably a waste of time. But I'll hold out hope that the "fabulous prizes" are more than that. Lol

[NorthWoodsKingdom]

LOL, I had a feeling it wasn't gonna be Fickle Faeries Pt. 2, but I didn't see THIS coming, lol

PS. It says this "conquest" lasts til July 27... Y'all know what that means, right? -- prolly no update next week.

[labsandboxers]

I want the purple trees

[PrincessCupOButter]

I want the purple trees

Me too!

[55lee55]

Sounds like another community event. Last time it was grapes, this time monster tokens. If so, I doubt we will really need to beat up monsters as the only way to get tokens. Like the "fake flower" event, where the teaser said something to the effect that we had to collect flowers, and at first many were trying to find wilted tulips in their flowers. These teasers are historically misleading. I expect we will need to visit 50 people and do the normal event stuff to collect tokens. The prizes are probably monster statues or the like. Probably a bunch more decorations to store, and maybe an animal or two. And once again we will think we won't get the final prize, but we will.

Since we have the Baron's tent giving the option to buy decorations, I can't get excited by more decorations from another community event. And the six expansions weren't really enough to take the cramp out of my kingdom as it is, so more decorations are just that, more stuff to store. Ho hum.

[anurulz]

Seems like another community event...say goodbye to sleep everyone!!

I hope our next update gives us a use for the faerie blocks, beams and paste that were introduced with the plume hive update from July 31, 2014. Since then, the only thing we've been able to build with them is the faerie workshop which lets us build more of them! We can craft them, we can collect them from the faerie bridge, and we can get them from adventures, but a year later and we still can't use them!

Yeah my thoughts are with yours Burritosprings . I reckon someone found a launch go not go moment . Personally happy for a delay if this is the case rather than issues and hassle that takes some fun out of play. Still rooting for a Major storyline update with long goals though not dependant on random drops.

The problem with android parity when compared to iOS is that android systems are very diverse since Google doesn't manufacture the vast majority of the hardware running their OS, thus making it more difficult to write code that can run on all the different devices using the play store. (There's also the stereotype of iOS users spending more money, which may or may not figure into S8's parity problems.)

Lets also not forget the different rules between the IoS App Store and Google Play..

iOS requires that when downloading other promotion games that you have to do an in-game action to trigger the reward
Google Play does not have that requirement.
