I have notice that many times after raining there is no bugs appear in the yard. Is it a bug?

I actually got 2 bugs after one shower--the beetle and a centipede. Haven't seen another bug since, though.

I have 2 families (out of my 5) that have gotten a couple of bugs. They got them in first generation but now I'm in 3rd & 4th generation of my families and all 3 other collectibles are almost finished. I know the bugs are supposed to show up after rain/storm but it seems that when it rains or storms I get more of the other collectibles.

My one game, I was able to get half of the bugs. In another, only 1 so far. They are the hardest collectible to find.

I don't think it's a bug, I think LDW just wants it to be a challenge. I try to always search when it's raining and rarely find bugs. I just finished searching during a rain storm and found 5 coins and a leaf, no bugs whatsoever. Also, the guide states "Bugs only appear when it's raining", but not "When it's raining bugs will appear".

I'm finding the lack of insects my biggest frustration... it's difficult to maintain enthusiasm for the game when in essence you're just killing time waiting for some bugs to appear. I'd really like to see new puzzles and trophy options made available each time a career upgrade is purchased.

I also wanted to add that maybe we're just not seeing them. After all, a couple of the most common type of bugs are the most difficult to spot (caterpillar and grasshopper) and it is harder to spot a collectable when it's raining because the raindrops look like the sparkle that comes from a collectable.

I've acquired all but one of the bugs in one or another of my family sessions, so I know what to expect when then finally do appear. (The latest upgrade (.05) seemed to release the appearance of the violet fly for me.) I just wish I had something interesting to do while I wait for the full set to appear. I think what's frustating is that there's nothing I can do to move the game action forward and just have to wait fatalisticaly for the events to occur. I've bought and used every bottle of rain made available in the store, but the results are disappointing. I'm a problem solver by nature, so passively waiting for events to occur is hard for me...

ya i hardly ever see any bugs let alone new ones. i mean, what is it's problem. i really think ldw should fix this. (oh and , i know this is off topic, but it goes with what I'm saying, but maybe ldw could fix the random event schedual thing or whatever, cause i hardly ever see any events.)

The events and collectibles work as intended. The only reason it wouldn't is if your computer clock has been changed.
