UPDATE BUNNY: EA is pushing out patches. Let us know if this helps with this task being stuck. If not, hang in there for the next one.
UPDATE BUNNY: For all those getting stuck on the “done” issue again, there are a few things you can try if you really want to go that route.
1: Go to Krustyland/Neighbor and back to your Springfield.
2: Uninstall/Reinstall the app if you have your game linked to an Origin ID.
However, so far the majority of players that have tried this have not had good results. For now, the best thing to do is Contact EA and light up the Forums.
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
We’re nearing the end of Part 1 of Christmas….so you’ve got a little under 24hrs to gather those last minute presents and earn as many prizes as you can before Phase 1 leaves town. (You also may want to finish your tunnel tasks up…)
As was mentioned in the initial Jingle Bell Wreck questline….we were all left with a cliff hanger to see if Springfield really did ruin Christmas or if it would be saved. And today, that questline has picked right back up! So let’s take a look at the remaining parts of Jingle Bell Wreck, and see if Christmas will be saved!
Homer will get things going for you in Springfield. So if you don’t see the quests right away check to see if Homer is free (also make sure you’ve completed the first 12 parts of Jingle Bell Wreck). If they’re still not popping up for you try a hard close and restart of TSTO.
Jingle Bell Wreck Pt. 13
Homer starts
Make Homer Dress as Santa- 1hr, Earns $70, 17xp
Completed Task Earns 100 Presents and 10xp
Jingle Bell Wreck Pt. 14
Homer starts
Make Homer Try to Fly the Sleigh- 4hrs, Earns $175, 45xp
Completed Task Earns 100 Presents and 10xp
Jingle Bell Wreck Pt. 15
Lisa starts
Make Santa Deliver Presents- 8hrs, Earns 4 Presents, 70xp
Completed Task Earns 100 Presents and 10xp
So now that task for Santa, that has been locked, is now freed up & you can send him to deliver presents!
There’s also a continuation of Apu’s short questline from yesterday’s update. Today’s task will require:
Frankincense, Myrrh, and Donuts Pt. 2
Apu starts
Make Apu Search for a Christmas Tree- 4hrs, Earns $175, 45xp
And all signs right now are pointing to a donut deal from everyone’s favorite Salesmen Gil! So be ready to buy some donuts…because now is the best time of the year to get them (and it usually only happens once a year).
Right now every indication is showing it will start tomorrow (Christmas Eve) and run until the 27th. We’ll know for sure tomorrow when it actually hits…but we figured we’d give you a little warning since I know many of you have been asking for him.
So that’s it for today’s questline additions. Remember phase 1 ends tomorrow (12/24) at 1700 GMT (Noon EST)…so collect those last minute presents while you still can! Also, other items will be disappearing from the store over the next couple of days…so be sure to pick up what you want before it’s gone!
