Part of the strategy. You can adjust your Powerlinks based on your opponents if you want to.

The Minicons should be working pretty well now.
Have fun while you can. You won't be able to just have them sitting in inventory to purchase when HMW2 rolls out. You'll have to earn them :P

Got that right, alot of my guys are now maxed out in their primary stat! I can see the Strength booster being very useful, as more damage = more exp = more betterness.

Not sure if it has already been asked OS, but do the Boosts allow you to exceed the 10 Stat max? :???:

Seem to have a problem with them disappearing before a mission finishes, or at least the Icon does & they don't show under the cahracter.

They are supposed to be destroyed with you.

It was a glitch I just took out.

Possible Bug OS

Does anyone know if the mission logs are generated instantly & that the game timer just doesn't release them until the timer is done?

If your mincon icon not showing would indicate that you have either lost the mission or that you have gone into Stasis Lock & your minicon has been destroyed

it happened to Storm Crasher & I am confirmed it again with Fix

If you lose your Minicon icon you have either lost the battle or been Stasis locked bad enough to lose your Mini

A small exploit & you might want to get rid of the lack of surprise

The dead Minis are still not being released in the Store as well

Yeah, even after losing a mission and having my Minicon destroyed, it's still sitting in my inventory on the main Minicon page. But I can't equip it to any Transformer, and it doesn't appear when I'm on one of my character's profile pages.

I can still rename it, though...

Anyhow, I named some of mine after some of the PS2 Minicons, others I just pulled outta my head for the helluvit:

Sparkler Type: Shatterblast (which is the one that was destroyed, I might add...), Hailstorm, Contrail
Lifter Type: Warzone, Smackdown, Pressurepoint
Hopper Type: Blindside, Highgear, Slapdash
Deflecter Type: Guardshield, Steelhide, Backlash

Yup Gradius just lost his minicon icon with around 15 mins left. I'll look to see if Mech Diabolique loses his or if survives the mission.

Hmm. I only bought a couple, but I gave one to Firewall, and it looks like it's disappeared as soon as the mission started.
I'll see how it worked out in about 15 mins when it's over...

Most of mine have common first names like Norm, Bill, and George. Though I am tempted to rename them ALL George.

I attached another Minicon to Wheeljack, since the first one kinda got the boot in battle after he did.

When he got the new minicon attached, the first one that is supposed to be 'dead' is there on Wheeljack's character page... does that mean there can be two+ minicons on a character? Or is that a bug?

Plus when I go to click 'Unlink' with Tarpit, the "dead" minicon, it won't do it.

It's also the same with Scopepoint, the 'new' minicon I put on him.

I put George onto Headlong while Headlong was waiting for a mission. Once the countdown passed the 20 minute mark (when the mission began), the minicon symbol disappeared from Headlong and it's not on his character page. George still shows up if I click "rename minicons" though.

Well, I'm not sure the extra firepower did Firewall any good, 'cause he still got knocked out. Let's see if Knockdown's anymore useful to Ramrider...

I don't know, but who cares? I mean honestly, is it that big of an issue? :???: You seem to be more worried about a silly banner as opposed to the fact that - hello - the Minicons are in the game!


The banners are pretty bland. I wish people would contact other users to create some of this stuff. Instead of just heaping more and more onto their plates. Let the creatives have a chance to help out more, ya know?
