I wonder if there's a chance of a Generations Armada Megatron repaint into Galvatron. This might be just a thing for the game if there are 6 different ones to unlock, but I wouldn't be too surprised at a repaint.

V1 is based on the Asian 3-pack release from last year, V2 is the Universe deco.

Maybe for an exclusive somewhere but I can't see them doing it for mass retail seeing as how much Armada Megaron has been shelfwarming.

And this game uses the design of the original 2003 toy instead of the CW Leader toy.

Funnily enough at my local Wal-Mart I saw 2 G1 Megs and no Armada Megs a few days ago. They're definitely selling, just not at an equal rate.

So I stopped playing this about a month after it came out...I got sick and tired of getting stressed out every time the game matched me with someone who had bought all their characters because we has a similar pvp score. Is that still going on?

It's the only kind of game DeNA makes. And now the premium bots cost 50 character cores and make combiners useless.

Made Combiners useless after promoting a Bruticus giveaway to former Legends players. You'd think they'd at least wait until their last venture collapsed before making the same mistakes.

Ah, well. Glad I didn't make the switch.

First thing I noticed when I picked up Battle Tactics was that they seemed to be doing everything that ran Legends into the ground, but faster. Weekly events, new bots, power creep, premium bots that you can technically get for free but only with the luck of the gods and you'd have to play constantly, pay-to-win leaderboards... and a sense of satisfaction when you play, even for free. Goddamnit. I just tell myself that there's at least an element of strategy in this game, with the choice of modes, bot abilities, special attacks, powerups, and unit targeting that weren't present in Legends. That keeps me going. And if I'm tempted to spend money, I remember the hundred bucks I sank into Legends and where that game is now.

But seriously the power creep in this game is ridiculous. The hyper rare Grimlock prize from an event or two ago has better stats than half the combiners, and he still only takes up one slot instead of two. Centurion, the only combiner you can get outside events, is piss now.

Cool! Was he paired with Rampage, Waspinator, and Dinobot?
I got Tarantulas just by recruiting him within the first few hours... DeNA made a mistake and made him free to recruit. Unfortunatly, it's no longer possible :(
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1715721)
Posted by Redneck Grimlock on August 4th, 2015 @ 11:52am CDT
I think the one I was fighting had Lio Convoy, Transmetal Megatron, and Arcee. It's cool you got him early though
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1715725)
Posted by MartianSpyGirl1996 on August 4th, 2015 @ 12:04pm CDT
Damn, that is a sweet lineup :(
Yeah, I'm a huge Beasties fan, so I was lucky to be able to get him for free, because I suck at the daily campaigns and would have never gotten him otherwise.

Is anyone else getting bored of this game?

I kind of am now that I have a full tier 5 team, but I keep playing just for the nostalgia.

I'm a big BW fan too, is that team your main setup? Mines Lio Convoy, G2 Megatron, Inferno, and soon to be Armada Galvatron. I've been around since it came out for iOS
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1715899)
Posted by MartianSpyGirl1996 on August 5th, 2015 @ 9:10am CDT
It is, and thankfully they're my heaviest hitters. Inferno? G1 or BW, because Imma be sad if they already did BW Inferno unbeknownst to me :(

They did BW Inferno during the second Beast Wars event I believe. You don't see him anymore because he's useless though.
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1716008)
Posted by MartianSpyGirl1996 on August 5th, 2015 @ 3:42pm CDT
Poor little guy. They should do Antagony and BW Scorponok
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1716043)
Posted by Redneck Grimlock on August 5th, 2015 @ 6:18pm CDT
Inferno may not be the best, but he's not useless. I have Armada and V2 Galvatron thanks to him. I still have him in two teams. By the way, the did Beast Wars Scorponok with the same event as Inferno
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1716047)
Posted by Rainmaker on August 5th, 2015 @ 6:31pm CDT
Yeah, with every new event stronger characters come in. Making early tier 5's useless.

My lineup of Arcee, Lio Convoy, Spinister and Bonecrusher could easily beat a team of Optimus Primal Bat, Inferno, Hot Spot and G2 Megatron

I must have completely missed that event... must have been the first BW one
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1716062)
Posted by King Kuuga on August 5th, 2015 @ 8:00pm CDT
Two Lio Convoys, a Spinister, and in two weeks a Tarantulas, unless I manage to place top 200 in teams or top.... however high gets you a R5 unit in solo, in one of the next events. Some past units are still decent, but if they have less than 100 health it's generally not worth subbing into my team.

Actually the second

Yeah, I forgot which Beast Wars event it was. I just got both the new Galvatrons from this event. I usually drop in PVP rank on purpose so I have more room next event(easier teams). It's called Battle Tactics for a reason

Actually the second

How many have there been? I participated in the Dinobot and Rampage ones, missed the Blackarachnia one (so that must have been the second)... what was the first?
Re: DeNA Transformers: Battle Tactics - Event Update: Galvatron (1716147)
Posted by Redneck Grimlock on August 6th, 2015 @ 10:00am CDT
1st- Cheetor, Optimus Primal, Megatron, Waspinator
2nd- Blackarachnia, Tarantulas, Inferno, Scorponok
3rd- Optimus Primal Bat, Rattrap, Dinobot, Alligator Megatron
4th- Transmetal Optimus Primal, Transmetal Rhinox, Transmetal Megatron, Transmetal Rampage

I believe this is the correct order

Not really, all the Technobot sprites are based on the G1 toys, like Bruticus and Piranacon. The combiners that take after their CW toys in this game are Menasor, Superion, Defensor, and Devastator.

Feel free! While we aren't going to put new events and such on the front page as news anymore (barring something insanely earth shattering), I'm sure there are others playing too.

I actually just started playing this about a month ago when I got a new Fire tablet, never enjoyed the tiny screen experience on my phone. It is not easy to stay competitive without spending money. Possible, but takes awhile.

This game devolved faster than Legends. A shame, as it actually has somewhat entertaining gameplay.
