Will the Donkey take 2+ seasons to unlock? | Forums

[Whitechapple]

So, it's been a while since I've had blueprints to a new bike, but I seem to remember each bike having 20 blueprint parts. At the end of the season, assuming you hit lvl 1 you'll have 10 blueprint parts.

That means 2 seasons for the Donkey. I hope I'm wrong, and that you need only 10 parts, but my guess is that it'll take 20.

I'm not sure of the purpose of the Donkey bike. If it's a novelty thing then it may only take 10 pieces, if it has more of a central purpose then it will likely take more.

If it took 10 pieces then what would they use as special prizes for next season? I think they'd rather pad it out to 20 as that sorts out the special prizes for 2 seasons, or 3 and a half months. By the time people have the bike they will have something to replace the prizes with.

I'd laugh if, when we get to the end of the season, we find out that it costs something like 30 pieces.

I do think the Donkey is a special case. All the previous bikes have slotted into a category. There were three tier 1, 2 and 3 bikes. The Donkey is a bit of a wild card so I don't know if previous experience with blueprint pieces will apply to this.

Yeap, I just realized this is exactly what will happen - 30 pieces, 3 seasons. Donkey will be a status symbol, ride on all tracks, will be pretty lame at any and that's it

could be even worse

3 donkeys, one for each tier, 3 times the upgrades required, tons more coins and parts to farm for

If the donkey needs 30 prints, 10 from each season and you miss maybe one print from season 1.
How can you ever get the Donkey then? Lost for ever, no point playing for season 2 and 3.

All grind for nothing... or will they just give the donkey from loot wheel to all after the seasons are over?

With how previous updates have been, there might be a set of Zudina missions based on finding remaining Donkey blueprints. But most of this is just speculation, none of us have any clear Idea of what will happen.

IF the donkey takes more than 10 blueprints i wouldnt think you would have to get all available each season. if you missed one from season 1 im sure you could pick it up in a later season.

I got a message pop-up earlier today when I went into the bunker. At the time I was level 1 (now legend - yay!), but it said something like "Conrgatulations, you now have all the blueprints to unlock the donkey." but sadly the game crashed a few seconds later (friends list avatars loading issues) before I remembered to grab a screenshot. I haven't seen that message either before (in any of the other times I started up whilst being level 1, in the last day or so) or since. It implied to me that 10 is all that is required.

Wow I wish you're right ^

@Fluffy: I hope to be entering legend status in the next couple days, so I'll have to keep an eye out for that message.

I assume that Donkey prints will be on the prize list for consecutive seasons as well, so if you don't get all of them this season you'll be able to get them in a following season.
