The Autobots have two Pontiac Solstices. One of them is the actual Solstice

Re: Alt-mode issues
Question. Are all of the tanks now strafe tanks? prior to the reset I had two pure ram tanks, now I can't find a tank that doesn't have ram as a second tactic with strafe as the cheap first tactic.
Also I was having issues with the lobster alt's mini-icon not loading, I fixed it by changing the colour I had set it to, but i'm not sure if this issue had been raised...

You'd have expected OS to have put that in, wouldn't you?

I noticed that. I thought the preds got more cool alts. Boy was I wrong.
Any idea when the next alt rotation is?

I know that's a fairly minor thing, but I'd have to say it's one of the things I'd most like to see fixed. I wanna know what other alts I'll have available.
I mean, other than reducing beast missions to 4v4, stopping Cons and Bots from being able to generate beast missions, and making all alts dual tactics with standardized costs, that is. (Just sayin'.)

It should be a fairly simple thing too. Just fix the link in the code.

True. When's the next cycle? Or is he going to have the rotator sped up by then?

Re: Alt-mode issues
in the normal scheme of things, assuming the rotator started ticking over when the game went up sometime wednesday evening(USA)
if OS speeds it up to about 3 days per shift, and assuming OS sorts it out exactly a week from the 5th, sometime next wednesday evening(USA)

Re: Alt-mode issues
polly, os said it would take about a week on the 5th, and who knows when the alt rotator started up, could've been when the game started functioning the weekend before the launch, so it's all guesstimation.

Speaking of misreading posts... It needs a week to get to that point on the bug list to speed up the alt rotator. It doesn't need the whole week to speed up the alt rotator, there's just more stuff in front of it to do first.
Hate the players, love the game.

Hi guys. For some reason the Alt. mode Reference page is blank.
I'm Lost-----
I have gone to look for myself
Should I return before I get back
Please ask me to wait.
