Yeah, but I've been taking it easy this week. Log in enough to upgrade a wall and do what I can in the war.

Still in Evil Empire? Think we warred against you recently.

Probably, but that would actually require me to pay attention to who I'm fighting.

You went back to Evil Empire?

Last week Space Ape teased a big announcement on their Twitch stream, I'm finally seeing some info from the beta players about it.

The video from BeardedGhost explains in more depth.

Is this in response to people who wield 2 accounts? I wonder who this helps.

I don't know, really. I can't see a benefit for me in it. All it seems to do is make it easier to switch, which people were asking for, but not be able to team up with your Autobot buddies.

SpaceApe of course. Two accounts = twice the spend.

True Decepticons though stick to one account.
*will never speak to CF again if she sets up an Autobot account*

Wait, she already did that. :HEADHURTS:

Well that's... sort of lame. Same base and all that, you can just use some bots, but you have to use bought or earned crystals and not free crystals to get the characters. Not really worth it to me

First look at Smokescreen via Bearded Ghost.

News Credits: 6188 · by **Va'al** » Wed Mar 08, 2017 12:29 pm

Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!

Project Nova research site is in ruins, Reflector is on the run and First Aid has gone missing. Meanwhile, the missing Nova Core is pouring radiation into the atmosphere...

Bit of a Longshot

With First Aid missing, it’s lucky he didn’t go it alone. Smokescreen was ready to provide cover fire with his Sniper abilities for First Aid, and now he's forced to take center stage and get a handle of the situation.

Megatron’s lack of faith has prepared him for this potential failure, as Brake-Neck was assigned to secretly provide support for Reflector with his own Sniper abilities.

Secure the Project Supernova facility and earn Alloy, Spark, Energon, 3-Star Shards and Tactical Crystals!

or Brake-Neck to clean up the mess! Catch them transmitting through the Space Bridge this weekend.

Smokescreen (Sniper)

Everything Smokescreen does is designed to mislead.

Nothing is what it seems, and every surface action has a lurking ulterior motive. Misinformation is the weapon he wields to wrong-foot and lead the enemy astray.⏎

He even uses his affable nature to root out the deepest concerns of his fellow Autobots. And in car mode, his tailpipe emits a screen of thick black smoke to mask his maneuvers.

A true smokescreen.

Execute!

Instantly destroy a building below 25/30/35% health or snipe an enemy bot dealing large damage. Cannot execute the HQ

Brake-Neck (Sniper)

When it come reckless, Brake-Neck is in a class of his own. Opponents and allies think his head-on, who-blinks-first combat tactics are a bluff, that no one can be that wild and impetuous, but the truth is Brake-Neck really is nuts.

He doesn't care, and that's what makes him so dangerous.

Despite this, Brake-Neck is a bag of nerves, and sudden loud noises are prone to make him take off like a bat out of hell.

Execute!

Instantly destroy a building below 25/30/35% health or snipe an enemy bot dealing large damage. Cannot execute the HQ

So, does the sniping ability have an increase in ability points per use, or is it just straight 3?

It's a straight 3, check ghost's video it shows it off.

That's where I got the question from. that feels odd that you can just keep repeating that at no ability increase

It took me by surprise, too. First 0 increase they've had, but considering how hard it is to use the ability...

by **BumbleDouche** » Thu Mar 09, 2017 7:07 am

That's odd... They've already got Offroad, strange that they'd include Brake-Neck as well. I wonder which will form a part of the inevitable Menasor?

by **ThunderThruster** » Thu Mar 09, 2017 7:14 am

Considering the current lack of Deadend, both Brakeneck and Offroad could be used for Menasor

That'd be an unusual combination, especially considering the colour similarities between Offroad and Brake-Neck.

The game models and color schemes are fairly differentiated in this case.

Just checking up. Still no luck on any good Autobot alliances?

I ended up being replaced in the Seibertron one due to the fact that I joined in the middle of some life stuff, which led me to being inactive for quite a while. I totally understand, though. They needed the space.
