OK i went to have a game at the Lockwood showcase think it looks awesome :smileyhappy: got a sand castle reward pretty easy. the game isnt to hard at all just a little time consuming

 

for those that want to know the rewards are or as close as i can figure out

 

  • Sand Castle - Get 1000 eggs or 10,000 (not sure)
  • Pin Wheel - Get 500 blue eggs
  • Statue 1 - Get 5000 green eggs
  • Some sort of swarm?? - Get 10,000 Purple eggs
  • Statue 2 - get a community score of (Beace yourselves) 999,999,999,999 (that isnt a typo)
  • Flaming sword - find one what looks to be rare or special egg.

If you have the rouge costumes 1 egg = 2 but thats about the only perk i have noticed

Now i knew Lockwood wouldnt make it easy i mean they want repeat traffic i understand that but wow some of these scores border on the sadistic :smileysurprised:

 

What are your thoughts on the space and the game?

 

 

 


I don't like it, and the rewards surely don't justify the work involved, for 2 lousy statues (both look like the 2 dragon creature pets) a pin wheel and some kind of swarm?? Can purchase a flaming sword at Alter Ego, so that's sorted. Would've been better to have the old system of one item per day, if they're not offering the egg and armour display cases, and the stocks, then I'm not interested in this masochistic game. The Baron's Eggcellent Plan was hellish enough.

I HATE THIS GAME!

Re: Lockwood Dragons Game. Your thoughts

Best method to fall asleep in front of your TV is playing this egg hunting game. 

 

BTW. Lockwood should use some maths before setting the community reward to 999,999,999,999 smashed dragon eggs. 

 

At the moment the counter for smashed eggs is around 6,000,000. Lets assume they reach 9 million every day (which I doubt judged by the boredom of the game), we need approx. 111,111 days to reach them. 

 

Devided by 365 days a year (not counting the maintenance downtimes!!) this would mean around 305 years. I honestly doubt that our grand-grand-grand kids are interested in finally finding out, what the dragon egg smash community reward will be!!

We all better buy the rogue costumes, then we only need about 150 years of egg smashing to fullfill Lockwood's task

I agree with you Reaver I was hoping we would at least get the Flaming Pylons or pillars i guess you could call them, The armour case (really liked the look of it) and the stocks. They are items. I dont know why they dont have them either in the gift machine, as rewards or paid for items :smileysad: Makes no sense to me.

 

And the sheer amount needed for the rewards has put many people off even playing the game a second time. I had a run about the space earlier and there were a few people asking what they were thinking when they made the scores so high. This was from people that didnt buy the suit and some that have. The look of the space is nice, I like the medievil vibe to it kinda reminds me of dragon age. The minitour is a little in the way when the eggs spawn between its feet tho. I like the space, but like others i have other things to do then run around 24/7 collecting eggs, and a few of the items in the space i would really love to own as i could do a nice themed space around them.

 

So if your listening Lockwood can we have those items please? (Doubt it but hey worth a shot)

 

Thank you all for your replies to :smileyhappy:

Re: Lockwood Dragons Game. Your thoughts

It's certainly going to be a grind.

Btw, "•Some sort of swarm??" this is an animated blossom reward

Are the items in question not already furniture items though? I guess they were just delayed from launching in this weeks update but I'm 100% certain that they will be purchasable items.

 

 

As for obtaining the items, I think realistically it would take around 30+ hours to obtain everything if you have the patience for it.

Maybe the different coloured eggs spawn more frequently on different days...?

"As for obtaining the items, I think realistically it would take around 30+ hours to obtain everything if you have the patience for it."

 

REALISTIC??

 

Since the reopening of Home after todays update all Homies together managed to stomp on 8.2 million eggs in more than12 hours. 

 

To get the community reward within 30+ hours, we have to smash about 9 million eggs every second!

 

BTW. you have to collect 50 pink and 25 green eggs per minute to gain the other rewards within 30+ hours. You're good if you kick 75 eggs per minute alone independent of their color.

 

Sorry to smash your illusion, but you can't cheat math.

Re: Lockwood Dragons Game. Your thoughts

From what I can tell it appears that the common egg colour changes daily, as it was green before and now it's blue. If this is the case, as long as you get the day you need collecting the other egg colours shouldn't be too difficult, I'd think the community one should go pretty fast. It's a shame the rewards aren't that great looking.
