Wow, still no class 4s for me since the restart. I must've pulled 1000 cards out of the space bridge. Lame. I can't keep up with the sharpshots. They are too tough. I'm not sure what the point of energon refills as rewards when you can't play the event without battle cubes.

To get you to buy more battle cube refills.

You're using ashe5k as your name in the game?

Well that goes without saying. Though it won't work on me. This event isn't something I'd pay for. Not with this style of game anyway. Without any real PvP with strategy involved and something to gain, winning this event is not very critical. Don't get me wrong. I like the idea of it and I appreciate the devs for implementing it.

I only bother with it at all because its a good way to get a lot of cards fast. Good for leveling, good for collecting. Which is why my inability to draw a single class 4 card over the last 3 days has really soured this event for me.

Yeah, I got a few good 3s that I can now work on leveling and scanning. But I can get most if not all of them in the regular game. Getting a few 4s was really the goal for me this event. With it coming to a close and getting increasingly harder to stay in it, it doesn't look like that'll happen. Pisses me of slightly.

Hopefully they do another event sometime soon. Rage of the Dinobots anyone? I'd do a few things differently in the first couple rounds to have more energon cubes saved up for the last round when they start to run dry.

I've put a healthy amount of effort in the game, but zero dollars. I managed to get in the 225 or so rank when sharpshot was first added. But as my cubes have dwindled down to nothing I've come to a screeching halt where even if I have a cube and engage a sharpshot, for some reason the game decided to ask for help from random people of random levels that do little to no damage. So I watch as my sharpshot times out and in the meantime I watch my rank go higher and higher.

It's been a fun event (when things worked) and I've gotten some decent stuff, it's just a shame to end the way I am after being so vigilant with using my Energon and cubes as often and wisely as possible.

Given that it's the first tournament it's safe to say we've all been critical of it.

Their first attempt failed miserably. But they brought it back, quickly sorted the bugs out and we all got into it. Lulled us into a false sense of security and look at what has happened in the last 24 hours. We had no idea Sharpshot was coming, none of us were prepared.

And you know what? I like it!

I can't wait to see what's in the pipeline for the next two days.

I still have my complaints about the game, but the tournament has been fun and we've helped them sort out a lot of bugs. To me, it's been a success.

Yup. I may not be very original, but I'm consistent.

I'm understanding of bugs and glitches as that happens in almost every game since the age of the internet. But, I still think their pay model is downright asinine considering the amount of stuff that can be lost by the games instability. Their pay model needs updating too as mentioned earlier in this thread as they are a little to proud of themselves asking as much as they do for energon/battle recharges and even cards. $30 for 10 cards in the special event bridge, yeah guys tone it down a notch.

I'd love to be able to swap cards with my allies.

I wouldn't mind a trade feature, although during non-event times it would make the game pretty pointless since your collections would be complete.
