Well the drought is legitimately over now. In leveling up my cards, I pulled a regular R4 Skywarp bot out of my gold episode medals.

Is anyone else having an issue where the game hangs on the loading screen? This is happening to me about 1 out of every 2-3 times I start the game. I have to back out and start it again. Sometimes I even have to manually force close it.

I've accumulated about 190 cubes in storage but I am officially out of this episode. The reward structure isn't good enough to keep me engaged or make me want to spend my resources. The lack of warrior medals to this point is pretty disappointing. Now I've cashed in all of my medals and leveled as many cards as I can level, I'm fine letting this episode pass. I'm not even going to try for top 1000.

I'll continue to play every couple hours so that I can snipe some bosses and move my time saved cubes over to my inventory to keep that growing. But outside of that, I'm pretty much pulling out.

Yep. I just put it down to my so-called "slow connection".

Once again I never even managed to get to 90 cubes before the harder bosses hit.

w00t! Just worked out how to find you guys individually as allies to be added.If you go

If you go into your Allies screen, there's a little Mobage head icon in the top right hand corner.

Click on that.

Add your Friends through there. Once they've accepted your Mobage friend request you can then go back into the game and add them through Mobage friends.

So ... "dilborgenator". I'll only add you if I know you're name so you might want to share. (Already sent you a request Joe)

I see Hun-gurrr is available for some people. Not that I would be encountering him but I just received a call for help to battle one. I declined.

I sit somewhere around rank 5,000, just watching this episode go by. I'm up over the 200 cube mark now, though. If the developers make the next episode worth while, I anticipate being a player. If they don't then I'll be sticking to the sidelines again, I suppose.

Internet hiccup caused a double post. Disregard.

I'm barely participating in this one. I was excited at first, but coupled with the fact it was Mother's Day weekend and I wasn't going to spend the day with my family and wife with my face buried in my phone and I just don't feel like checking my tablet or phone every hour or so otherwise, I'm guessing I'm just burned out. Another event on top of the last one kind of killed it even though I thought I was all for it at first.

That and honestly, I don't really care about the reward cards at all. I've just got no connection to them. That's basically how any of the bots end up on my team in the first place and actually get leveled up.

I'll still be popping on to level while this is going on and maybe free up another friends spot. I'll be set for the next event though power-wise. Good luck to those still in it.

Just a quick tip...

While the Gold Weapons Space Bridge Weapons dont work so great at building weapons... you can SELL those weapons instead and you get about 30,000 credits for selling the whole 20 you get.

I'm up to about 2500 Gold Weapons medals so I figured I could part with at least 500 or them to get some credits flowing.

I'm going to see if I can hang around the 1000 mark, but I'm not going to go for broke to get there. This mission was poorly planned, too fast after the others, and the prize structure is ridiculous.

It is apparent however that they are going to reward the people who are willing to spend more than the 2 bucks per episode that I'm willing to spend because I'm doing 8k with an almost 11k strength deck if I'm lucky against the level 4 and 5 Hun-Gurrrs and they are being sniped at 30 to 40k.

I figure if you want to be a player in one of the future episodes if they continue this format you will need to spend about 10$ minimum. The 3x and 5x MTMs are just too valuable and they dont come flying out of the space bridge.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this episode is no fun anymore. My deck power is around 8200 and the reward structure does not make me feel want to proceed further more like the last one. Hanging around at rank 2000 is the same as burning more cubes to process to 1000. As I really don't think I'm able to get below 1000, I guess hanging around at where I am now is good enough for this episode.

Weapon medals used to be prized possessions but it seems that they have reversed course on their rarity. As long as you leave enough to level your weapons, selling them should be fine.

The fembot event was the first event I spent actual cash on. Playing free I was able to reach the 300-500 range every event, but was always just shy of the top 300. I spent $20 last event and I can tell you that it did not help make enough of a difference to enable me to reach top 100. If you want to spend money, you need to realistically evaluate what rank you want to place. As the higher the rank goes, you will need to spend enough cash to pull both modes of the x5 event cards or its not worth it. With the rarity of both modes and overall mobage sneakyness for money, this can very easily push you upwards of the $100+ range before making the needed improvement to your deck. If you are going to spend money, dont think that $10 or even $20 is going to put you at the top.

Just committed most of my resources (and spare cards) into upgrading Shockwave and Brawl to the maximum. My reaction:

No regrets were made.

Tue May 14, 2013 9:09 pm

I've been saving cubes unless I can get the snipe hit. Otherwise, i spend my explore energy looking for blight lvl ?? because he gives 4 cubes as a reward.

Has anyone pulled both halves of razorclaw from the bridge without spending any money? I feel like your odds of getting any 5x card get better if you've already spent money trying to get the 5x out of the episode bridge.

During the dinobot campaign, I pulled 4 episode dirges from the bridge during the campaign using about 6000 cards, not sure how I got that lucky. I've not pulled another episode card except 1 divebomb from any episode so far.

If you mean cold, hard, material money, then prepare to rip me to shreds...

I just started playing yesterday after getting past the crashing-every-few minutes phase (it still crashes, but not as often), and I've recovered both robot and animal modes for Razorclaw in less than a day from just doing the Decepticon campaign and using the medals to get cards.

Rank 4 Episode cards though?

There are Rank 4's of Razorclaw? #-o

In that case, apparently not. I believe the ones I received are Rank 2. My bad. :-(

Burn, if you pulled that from the bridge without spending money, i applaud you and still have faith that its luck of the draw.

Yep, I only have the standard ones. My bad again. :oops:

lol. Flogged 'em off the "Transformers Legends Fans" Facebook page.

I did get the Razorclaw bot from using medals and I picked up the Divebomb bot from using Mobacoins left over from last episode.

I'd love a "Reserve" deck so I can shove those guys in them after this episode is done so they sit there doing nothing and don't get accidentally sold or used to upgrade other characters (I'm stupid enough to do that) because once this episode is over, they're out, and I'm bringing back in other maxed out trans-scanned cards.

Hey guys, just started this game the other day and I have gotten some good tips from this thread so thanks!

I thought I read somewhere that the episode medals disappear at the end of the episode. Is this true?

Im happy with my deck and probably don't need to level any more rare 3 cards, just replace them with fours as I acquire them.

I was hoping to save the medals to upgrade those with the resulting card fodder, but if they are going to delete themselves I might as well fill my cache and upgrade a few of my childhood favorites.

Speaking of which, anyone else disappointed that most of the cards with our favorite characters are not viable now/about to not be?

Thanks!

They will convert back to regular silver/gold medals after the event is done.

Like who? So far I still have no luck of getting Jazz (whom is my favorite) from space bridge. :-(

Wed May 15, 2013 3:00 pm

Thanks for the answer! so whats the difference between the two space bridges? Just no chance for episode cards?

Well I guess with any luck all of mine will be obsolete, they are all class 3 except Razorclaw (bought) and MTM Divebomb ( got both modes from bridge). third spot is filled by a second bought Divebomb.

I have Ops, Grimlock, Starcream, Shockwave, Mangnus and Jazz MTMed and in my starting lineup across the bottom. I have a few others I like that don't make the cut I hate seeing on the bench. It would be a shame if after this episode my deck is all beasts and none of the classics.

Im assuming you are needing class 4 Jazz. I have a second set of class 3 Jazz. To bad there is no trading as I would give them to you.

From what I can tell even the class 4 of these guys are not on par with Twinstrike and Blight.

Im still relatively new at this so maybe my assessment is off on this.
