The Macbot And Doovoo Are Returning

April 15, 2022 at 12:00 AM

Macbot & Doovoo Returning

Take a deep breath. Breathe in. Breathe out. Don't have a heart attack. The highly-coveted Macbot and Doovoo creatures are being unvaulted in May of 2022. Both of their prices will be 1500 CC. These creatures were last available 12 years ago in 2010.

As a reminder about rereleases... to protect creature values, a species population can only be doubled at most. Stock will be very low on these two creatures, as there are simply not that many of them on Egg Cave. Get ready!

Did I just did a prediction? OMG I was just saying on the some blog posts ago about these two ●__●

sprite • 15 Apr 2022, 12:38 AM

Very, very , very excited. Have a name I wanted to put on a Macbot for a long time.

sandara • 15 Apr 2022, 12:41 AM

"Don't have a heart attack" I think it's too late to read that... I just saw the title and I am already having a heart attack XD

poe • 15 Apr 2022, 12:46 AM

Well this should be interesting!

muppet • 15 Apr 2022, 12:52 AM

OMG!!!

senkou • 15 Apr 2022, 12:53 AM

HOLY YEEP

dragiigy • 15 Apr 2022, 1:02 AM

Uffff....another morning without sleeping. Well done, @Ian !!!

duskitty • 15 Apr 2022, 1:19 AM

curious to know, how many doovoo and macbot are in existence as of the time of writing?

sandara • 15 Apr 2022, 1:31 AM

@duskitty Danger an Ritual are the only Doovoos I know the existence, but I do believe that it will be no more than 10-15, I think.

sandara • 15 Apr 2022, 1:35 AM

Also Alecto and there is this one that I forgot the name...

senkou • 15 Apr 2022, 1:40 AM

@duskitty i'd guess around 20-30 doovoos (currently in existence) from what i've seen 😱 mostly in inactive accounts though

duskitty • 15 Apr 2022, 1:49 AM

@senkou @sandara wow, that's a lot less than i was expecting!! good luck to anyone trying to get one when they release!

flaming_vixen • 15 Apr 2022, 2:00 AM

kool

dragiigy • 15 Apr 2022, 2:32 AM

@senkou @sandara Are you saying, there will not be 100 eggs in "cash shop"? It was told at the start of re-releasing, the number would not be higher as the number of existings creatures. Not good news ☹️ I was still hoping for 100.

mrsgiggles • 15 Apr 2022, 2:54 AM

YESS! Buying the CC now!!!!!

senkou • 15 Apr 2022, 3:03 AM

@dragiigy I'm not 100% sure but let's say there 30 doovoos now: then I guess they would rerelease another 30 in the csp since they said they are doubling the current population? o: So yeah, i'd say there's definitely less than 100 up for grabs in may DX

noah • 15 Apr 2022, 3:46 AM

Holy smokes...never thought I'd see the day

sorrow • 15 Apr 2022, 4:29 AM

Oh man i would love to have a doovoo.... also for some reason it wasn't giving me the option to post here on mobile? there wasn't a comment box and even trying to reply to someones comment wasn't yielding any results. now im on my laptop and i can comment.

elluwah • 15 Apr 2022, 4:34 AM

Good luck to all those wanting to grab one of these!! 😱

sparklefox • 15 Apr 2022, 5:12 AM

Doubt I'll be able to save up enough CC in time for one, but we'll see.

myriadium • 15 Apr 2022, 8:29 AM

oh i know a ton of people are seeking these. i wish the best of luck to them!

cranberrycat1 • 15 Apr 2022, 9:08 AM

this is wanting to make me buy cc so bad i have always wanted a doovoo and macbot

seraph • 15 Apr 2022, 9:58 AM

I wish I could pay for CC ;/ awesome initiative to bring us users exactly what we want, so... thanks Team! ❀️

eschla • 15 Apr 2022, 10:38 AM

Oh my, macbot and doovoo, yeahhh

sandara • 15 Apr 2022, 10:40 AM

@dragiigy Piefox is the only creature I know the exact amount there is in the game (or maybe a little less if anybody let them die), there were only 100 'cause they were not released in SAR like the Cornivore, and they are #832 of 955, so there are definitely less than 100 XD

prairie • 15 Apr 2022, 10:58 AM

Very happy to see the "Big 3" creatures (onny macbot doovoo) all be re-released! With all these re-releases, I can finally achieve the 'unobtainable' creatures of my wishlist. Maybe the Gobbler will be re-released someday too.

muppet • 15 Apr 2022, 12:35 PM

@Ian Can you please tell us how many Doovoo are in existence on EGGCAVE?

Ian • 15 Apr 2022, 1:59 PM

@muppet about 30

muppet • 15 Apr 2022, 2:09 PM

Thanks @Ian ❀️

immortalraven • 15 Apr 2022, 2:21 PM

This is gonna be fun trying to get lol; had to have 2 biggie's at the same time x'D

Ian • 15 Apr 2022, 2:26 PM

Issues surrounding the feed button and navigation bar should be fixed, esp. mobile issues! Submit a ticket if issues persist.

bribri1114845 • 15 Apr 2022, 3:14 PM

LOL only ~30 exist? that’s insane. way lower than I thought! if I can’t snatch a rerelease in time I might throw my computer or something

nostalgiic • 15 Apr 2022, 3:28 PM

0–0

quinoafuntime • 15 Apr 2022, 4:17 PM

Won't be able to afford to buy CC in time for these, but I'm happy for those who will get them. Thank you for listening to your users Ian 😊

jilltheplatypus • 15 Apr 2022, 4:18 PM

I am beyond disgusted and appalled at the recent eggcave changes, this is beyond unfair to older users who have gotten used to the way things were. This is a subtle way of lulling us into compliance and I would personally like to see this rectified.

riceboysleeps • 15 Apr 2022, 4:41 PM

I disagree, I think it's great that people who weren't fortunate enough to have known about EggCave in the old days have a chance to get our dream creatures 😊

structuresfromsilence • 15 Apr 2022, 4:46 PM

While I agree with you @riceboysleeps it's frustrating that soooo much content on this site is locked behind paywalls. @ian any updates on letting players like me with not a lot of money acquire cc through site activities? It would be so cool, I'm willing to work hard 😊

luv • 15 Apr 2022, 4:57 PM

@jilltheplatypus can you elaborate a bit on your take here?

dougprishpreed • 15 Apr 2022, 5:02 PM

Take a deep breath. Breathe in. Breathe out. Don't have a heart attack. Hahaha it's crazy how much power Ian has over the emotions of his users πŸ˜‹

jilltheplatypus • 15 Apr 2022, 5:03 PM

@luv Did you assume we would not notice?!?! You have cleverly tried to hide your crimes. Did you not think we would notice you changed the font?!?! When you feed creatures the font is BOLDED! The horror to my eyes!!!! (This is a joke in good fun obviously XD happy hunting in may)

jilltheplatypus • 15 Apr 2022, 5:04 PM

@luv No other reason why do you ask?

luv • 15 Apr 2022, 5:16 PM

@jilltheplatypus lol, I see what you did there! no other big news, right? πŸ˜‰

prairie • 15 Apr 2022, 5:27 PM

@jilltheplatypus I'm not sure when you had joined EC, but as a user from 2013, I will say I love the re-release system. Not to say I don't think it has its flaws (*cough* tine free for all *cough*), but overall the effect on trading and values has been positive and controlled.

prairie • 15 Apr 2022, 5:27 PM

When I joined there were opportunities to do paperclip trading fairly easily, but too quickly demand for old/classic CSPs grew, and values got out of hand. The macbot, doovoo, tine onny and gobbler were pretty much called unobtainable. So I'm happy I have chances at WL pets.

riceboysleeps • 15 Apr 2022, 5:31 PM

Yes rereleases good! Thanks Ian for the opportunity. Besides the tine free for all @prairie (though Tines remain incredibly expensive and thus unobtainable for casual players who weren't around in 2020),

riceboysleeps • 15 Apr 2022, 5:31 PM

I think another critical flaw of these rereleases (which you and many other players have articulated very well on forum threads) is that it makes this site incredibly pay2collect. This is a bummer, and I hope it changes soon.

jilltheplatypus • 15 Apr 2022, 5:35 PM

psst I don't know if you read what I said but I don't care at all and I was trying to be funny - Ian if you are reading this know that I noticed you changed the font!!!! I knowwwwww! XD
