Since you can no longer see names through walls, they're now insanely hard to find. I've had 6 spawn on me so far, and the only one I've found is one that someone gave up on. >_>
I've killed 2 now, total of 5 spawned on me, but couldn't find them. The 2nd one I chopped was in the nether, in the middle of a lava pool, that someone had given up on. ._.
Agreed. I had one spawn an hour ago. Went looking for it. Found a few eggs, heard it but never saw it once. And from where I heard it, it could only be in one place but it wasn't. Also seem to remember last year the chests would spawn a bit more frequently. I've yet to see one pop this year and I've done some running round to try and trigger one
Found 2 of the chests already Note that the message for the chest will not pop up in the middle of your screen, only in chat , so you should pay attention to that
This will sound odd, but it almost seems like he's invisible. I mean I can hear him walking around. I can hear him clucking. He's dropping eggs.. but nothing. And like I said it's in a place where he could only be in a few certain placed. I just don't know lol And about the message, ya I haven't gotten one of those at all. Nothing in chat nothing on screen.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving, and a holly, jolly, Christmas.
Finally found my first turkey. I'm 1 for 9 in finding them, and they are way to hard to find to be considered "fun". :l
I completely agree with what's been said above. These things are way too hard to find. I've gotten four to spawn and have only found one. I've looked for one for over an hour with no luck. A 512x512 area for them to spawn in is just way too high. It only takes a few minutes to kill, but you're spending hours looking for the thing... not fun at all.
So far I've seen the messages for three Great Feasts and I've found two of them, the third wasn't at the coords but I'm willing to concede that I may just be an idiot there. So far seen three Gobble, Gobbles and only found one of the turkeys. Given the fact that the distance to see them through blocks is small to zero, I decided to go to a place where I figured it'd be the easiest to see them and that's where I found my first one. The second one I haven't found though. Where I'm at is in the Frontier but I imagine finding them in the Nether would be easier since there's less blocks for them to land on, would just need some netherpearls. I just want to mention that the two times I can remember doing events like this, last years Thanksgiving and during the Blizz Ard events, it started out hard and then Aikar made it progressively easier as the event went on. He may or may not do this again but I know they aren't out to make this a bad experience for people but there is a certain challenge to this and I think everyone should embrace it and try and have fun with it.
You sure? Christmas is only 28 days away, a lot sooner than you think. Nope, never too soon for Christmas carols. ♫ You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, you know Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen, But do you recall The most famous reindeer of all. ♫
Great event! But one thing.. I now had three times "gobble Gobble " . But cant find the turkey.. Nowhere. Not even underground
Personally, I think the turkey spawns should be similar to the chest spawns in which the super turkey spawns also give relative coords (including y, the height level). Anyways, thanks for the awesome update as always! Happy Thanksgiving to anyone and everyone who celebrates it. EDIT: Another solution that would solve the problem is making them spawn above ground only. I remember back when Marlixes could spawn anywhere so the odds of finding one were slim. As soon as the update that made them spawn only above ground went out, I never lost one/couldn't find one that spawned on me.
Happened to me 4 times as well. Hope this gets adjusted somewhat. It kind of burns you out when you can't find 4 of them
Yeah, I've been having issues too. Only found 1 of the 8 turkeys that I got the message for. I'm having an easier time finding turkeys left from other people.
