Forums → Quests → [Operation]: Star value!

I am signing up for this of course xD

Right now I am in the process of earning the last Epic Combo Redux quests, the 100 million combo and the 100 combo in 2 minutes.

This means that the real action will begin after I finish with those since letting the game run to reach 100 million combo is a nightmare for my flash But, since I am already 68.7% done, I should be able to wrap this up by the end of the day.

Just done with Epic Combo Redux. The hard quest '100 Freakin' million' does give 50 stars indeed and the medium '100 Turtle Rush' is worth 25 as it should be

Congratulations for beating that quest , it was one of the most time consuming back when quests were launched, and still is! I was trying to beat some of my missing ones, had a few epic fails , but that doesn't mean I won't try again ! XD However , I might make a test account and replay some of the games a like a lot, I might find some bugs as well , and of course determine star value!

Colony Defenders TD2

Impatient = 10 star points
Blood on the Field = 10 star points

Both are Easy.

Ok, I'm going to have a go at this. This will also answer the question of how many quests can be auto-activated.

Let's test the quest!

I think we are onto something here @OperationStarValue (id est, totally not obvious ivan's alt account )

You've earned 4 easy website quests but have only 30 stars. So I suppose your last quest, fav'ing a game, does not nail stars?

Hi Doom. actually I'm JC in disguise.

The Website quests are working just a little delay. 60/70 earned there (Armatar Exchange is broken)

Well, I got confused Sorry for mistaking you for ivan xD

So 60 stars for 6 easy website quests...and yes, everyone knows the Armatar Exchange is broken. So far nothing works badly, just a bit delayed. I have the feeling the answer lies in game quests.

Also, how did you get the quest 'beat the game' for what's inside the box without earning the easy quest about reaching level 14 first? o.O

Ok, I'm calling the hunt off - I've found a serious problem.

Take a look at these 2 alts that just posted (thelostrodent and OperationStarValue). Check the quests, check the star value.

I am assuming this is because the quests were earned in order in thelostrodent's case. In OperationStarValue's case, the easy quest for reaching level 14 was earned AFTER completing the game apparently which is obviously impossible. This may mean the system is more hack proof but it requires thorough checking...

2 accounts - both with the same eight quests, and yet with different amount of stars.

(Some Context: In the game "What's Inside the Box", there's an Easy for beating Level 14, a medium for Level 30. )

On OperationStarValue, I loaded my previously completed savefile and completed level 30, then reloaded and completed Level 14. On thelostrodent, I played the game again from scratch.

So, in fact, the amount of stars you have isn't necessarily the amount you earned. Some seem to be lost like socks down the back of the washing machine - and this might be why some star counts are under what you expect they should be.

EDIT: Interesting Idea Doom, but how could the system know it is impossible? In some games, you can earn an insane before you can earn a medium - and in others, they would award at the same time.

Also, for ivan, here's an updated list I made in the planning stage of this hunt, listing all quested games. I've added "What's Inside the Box", "Coinerator" and "Sushi Cat StoryCraft World Creator"

But that's probably why every account has fewer stars than it should have. Literally, every account I've come across has fewer stars than it should based on its quests. Yours and kolis are the only exceptions so far (as noted in the star Leaderboard), in that you have more than you should.

So the system probably doesn't know it's impossible but it miscalculates if harder quests are earned before easier quests. And everyone has, at some point done that

Ah, but I don't have more than I should, Doom.

If you add up all my quests, I should have 31675. Currently I have 31510. In comparison to others, it's a VERY close figure, but I'm still under - by 165 stars. (So I'm either missing a Hard, 3 Mediums and 4 Easys or 2 Hards, 1 Medium and 4 Easys)
