LOL Jealous. Jealous of what?

LOL L2P. GG random card deck game that lets you pick how weak or strong your opponent is as you come on the forums and brag about not losing in 100 battles. LOL.

I've always been playing it on my wi-fi only tablet which means I had to set my phone up as a wi-fi hotspot at work to play it at lunch.

Now I can just do it on my phone. Yays!

So when you have 1 account across a phone and tablet does the energon restore per device or per account? If its per device then that would make sense how people have these outrageously high scores.

Per account.

That being said, I had a Battle with one guy yesterday ... he's still playing this morning. I'm guessing some people are dumping a LOT of money into this game.

Indeed. Perhaps I misread the post telling me to L2P. I thought it might have meant "learn to play" as if I was doing something wrong. It seems it might have been intended as "learn to pay" as this game is very much pay to win. Oh well, Ive not paid a cent and have been having fun...

Thu Jan 10, 2013 5:24 pm

It was indeed learn to pay.

Get a job you unemployed scumbag

Ok so I just fought a level 4 Hardshell for the first time for 800 bounty points. Has he been in this event the whole time and Im just now getting to fight him or has anyone else fought him before?

Im very much employed, however I refuse to pay for things when a game is so obnoxiously glitchy. Out of curiosity, how much cash have you paid for your status?

Thu Jan 10, 2013 5:37 pm

About 25 quid on those full energon renew thingys.

Yeah ... that sort of attitude isn't going to fly around here. Have a warning.

Me personally, I wouldn't mind giving the devs of this game some money. The game is a bit glitchy, no doubt. But for the most part, its pretty playable and quite enjoyable. Thats something worth supporting. What stops me from paying for anything is the fact that I don't feel there is anything worth paying for.

I mean, 1 full dollar for a full energon refill! Big deal. 1 full energon refill gives me exactly 2 minutes of extra playtime before I run out of energon again. Battle cubes are not worth paying for at all. Finally, I would never pay 3 bucks for a single, random card. Thats just ridiculous.

Now, 5 bucks for unlimited energon for a day, something that actually adds replay value, then yeah. Now my language is being spoken. A couple bucks for a "booster pack" of cards? Yeah, I might pay for that. The three pay options that exist now are ridiculous in my view. I would be surprised that anybody would pay them at all if I wasn't on a Transformers forum where the collector's here have demonstrated many times over that their bank accounts are endless when it comes to supporting their "habits".

I agree with you completely about the whole day energon purchase. Ive lost about 7 or 8 energon refills due glitches, and as you said 1 dollar for 1 energon that may work or may not is not a good deal. The lack of communication by the developer (no forums) also makes investing money a seedy prospect for me too as you never know whats going on.

Side question: Has hardshell always been accessible through the event since its beginning or only after todays most recent update?

Additional side question: Im cataloging the autobot side for the campaign and creating a list of decepticons you fight for weapons on stages 2 and 4 since the game doesnt tell you which boss is where. Would anyone be interested in doing the decepticon side concurrently? The way Ive been marking it is on the main map Autobot symbol (d)down or (t)top, then (bot) bottom (mid) middle or top, then stage 2 or 4.

For example:

AD Bot 2 Starscream
AD Mid 2 Megatron
AD Top 2 Slipstream

AT Bot 2 Cyclonus
AT Mid 2 Thundercracker
etc....

I paid money a few weeks ago. Think I picked up 500 or a 1000 coins.

Know what I got out of it?

Jack ****. I might have gotten ONE rank 3 card from the super duper space bridge.

Today's the first time i've seen him.

As if the game somehow read my thoughts about giving it money now I've run into a game breaking glitch. Even though my Energon has refilled enough to do a mission when I hit scan the game then tells me I don't have enough. Broke pos.

News Credits: 226 · Fri Jan 11, 2013 3:01 am

Getting that too.

Fri Jan 11, 2013 3:23 am

Yep. Same here. Just got that glitch too. One more reason paying for single energon refills is not a good idea.

Fri Jan 11, 2013 3:33 am

The sad thing is that the game is working for some people..... Im watching my rank slowly drop. Yep lets give these guys money....

Think of it like this, we're just the test Androids. Get everything sorted out, work out how to run a tournament, cost their shop correctly ... then they'll roll it out to the "major" market.

'cause you know, they're probably just another mobile company who thinks Android users are a minority group while that OTHER group is the one to really target.

Fri Jan 11, 2013 4:56 am

Just burned a few more quid. Given the phone to my PA to rank me up whilst I earn a few grand today working.

Fri Jan 11, 2013 5:53 am

Ugh. I've got the same glitch where you're showing full energon but the second you go into the missions to scan for bosses you're empty again.

Yay?

So much for my aspirations of getting closer to the 1k rank. I'm not dropping money into it again if they can't activate an event boss without breaking the game.
