Angry Birds Transformers Sticker Book

There's a new update available. The 'coming soon'-clouds are gone, new characters are available and Astrotrain has a christmas tree on board.

Yay!

Its not appearing on iOS yet.

Did you at least get the skywarp and sharkticon update?

Well, I've checked out the new characters. Grey slam Grimlock, Brawl, Jazz (finally) and Thundercracker (also finally) are available. There's a new landscape (a city) to play and there are teams now, and Energon team, a Target 200 team and so forth. Also there are costum items for sale with Energon crystals and new achievement to be unlocked. Basically a big, fun update.

Nope, nothing. Makes me wish I had started playing on the android phone rather than ipad.

That's awesome! And perfect in light of my purchase of the energon telepods pack that was discounted at Target.

Also, if anyone can answer, I still have no clue what those telepod events give you in return for playing them.

I'm not. I've got the wrong parts.

Next to your characters, in the upgrade section, there's an autobird insignia. Tap on that. That will also show you biographies. The teams indicate what bonus you get at the end of each level. Say Ultra Magnus and Galvatron pairing up gets you a +40% coins, as they are both in the Target 2006 team.

New update, yay!
Game still crashes if I watch videos or get hit by multiple scrambler missiles, WTF?!

How<d you get Dark Megatron? Is he behind the 150 level clouds?

Mine crashes sometimes on scramblers or an excessive amount of getting shot.

william-james88 wrote:How<d you get Dark Megatron? Is he behind the 150 level clouds?

Yep!

Other than separating people from their cash, is there any point to the accessories? Does getting Prime the Matrix make him stronger or Brawl/Bludgeon the extra turret add firepower?

I don't think so. But it doesn't have to cost money, does it? Just save crystals.

Is there some kind of invisible force on certain levels? I've noticed I quickly die without getting hit but the screen is shaking and my character is jumping up and down.

Found the only way to avoid it is to just transform and bolt.

I felt that a few times. It seems like its the footsteps of those mechs destroying our health. Trasforming and bolting (till you meet them) works, but I found that upgrading past a certain level makes you immune to this early force.

Yes, usually either when there's a gauntlet of shotgun pigs, or the big mortar towers fire. I've also had Bludgeon (and his redecos) not be able to transform if they're below two hearts.

The problem is mainly prevalent with the Energon characters.Regular guys suffer very little from this.

I have had a new odd thing happen with this game. I can clear a level, the coins/pigs are added to my haul and the level is still shown on the map ready to be played again immediately.

Still no iOS update.

You sure you're getting the piggies and coins? I opened a ticket two weeks ago (still haven't heard from Rovio though) because I'm not; I'll play a level two or three times until it shows as cleared and I get the coins.

The wierdest thing just happened to me. I was playing as bumblebee on the level with the river and 2 background planes. At the end, I was in car mode and was slowed down by a rock that was in my way. I tripped over the rock and it slowed me down, making a monolith fall on me and turning my screen into giberish (like when Tvs couldnt tune into anything in the 90s). It then got back to normal and I was inside Astrotrain.

And I'm getting bored and tired of this game. My level 8 Energon Soundwave and Energon Lockdown died about or less than 10 seconds in the game. Energon Galvatron lives about 15 seconds. Energon OP usually lives around 20 seconds or if lucky enough can pass the level. Wait! Why most of the Energon characters suck? They cost a lot to upgrade and die so fast. My level 7 Bludgeon is almost unbeatable.

I have come to the conclusion a while back the Bludgeon is the best character of the lot.

Why do they die so fast?

So you go out and buy the Telepods so you can heal them instantaneously!

Kids will keep trying, adults however will get bored with it and just use Skywarp.

Could have sworn they were added but I paid attention last night and no, they are not added.

Game is buggy.

Yes, I've been experiencing that same problem for a while now. Since the 'Revenge of the Deceptihogs'-update it's becoming more frequent. It seems to be at it's most buggy in the top right level in pig city. I've noticed that when I finish a level and it doesn't clear, another level DOES clear, and doesn't give you piggies or coins.

So here's a short list of my biggiest, buggiest complaints:
- Levels not clearing after finishing them
-'Thud' levels which kill characters very quickly, without being visibly hit by anything
- Levels crashing when too many missiles are on-screen
- The 'Stella'-advertisement, which often causes the game to crash entirely and starting up again after a few tries.

There are more than a few people who have encountered this. It's a shame these issues aren't resolved after two updates.

Has anyone died right at the end while Astrotrain is parked up, in view, waiting for you to board? This causes the game to hang because Astrotrain cannot swoop down to pick you up!

Yes. Happened to me few times.

It also crashed sometimes (screen turns red/black) when I summoned the teammate for help. Also before the mission it said the teammate will stay for 10 seconds but many times it's only 5 seconds and doing nothing and go back.

Yep, even we iOS players who don't have updates and still very buggy.

After opening a ticket about this back on Dec 26th, I finally heard back from Rovio today:

Hello there,

and thanks for contacting us!

This is actually a known issue in the game and is currently being investigated. We try to get it fixed as soon as possible. Our sincerest apologies!

Best regards,

Salla
Rovio Support Team

I'm really considering uninstalling this game. It's only because I don't want to have to level everyone up again, y'know provided they ever actually fix it, that I haven't yet. I've already dropped my review to one star.

The iOS update has just been released.

It takes a long time to load the game on its first start, maybe its downloading assets.
Map has changed, Skywarp level destroying feature has appeared.

Yay, new stuff to do.

Forum goer Ravage XK first alerted us to it, and now Rovio have announced via the Angry Birds Facebook page, the latest update to Angry Birds Transformers entitled "Deceptihogs Revenge" for iOS devices.

The update, which has already been available to Android users for a number of weeks, unlocks new areas of Piggy Island and also makes available new characters and new features including the option for Skywarp to destroy an event, as well as add some accessories to your Autobirds and Deceptihogs.

Grab the latest update from the Apple Store and Play Store and then head to the Seibertron.com Energon Pub Forums and let us know what you think of it!

So what's new? I'd like to know if there are any differences with the last Android update.

New things I have spotted.

• Higher frame rate, everything seems smoother.
• The Coin icons on the map have changed, as has the animation of the coins being added to your total. They used to move up in one clump, now they stream one after the other.
• Skywarp can eliminate levels you cant complete.
• Seem to be two new areas you can explore, City and sort of River area.
• New type of enemy, the Piranhacon.
• Some levels have Slow Mo and Speed Up zones, these are activated as you pass through coloured gates.
• The City levels have large, lit up targets that when hit release an energon cube.
• You may notice Soundwave in his Cybertronian streetlight mode in the City.
• A new collection of trophies to achieve.
• You can buy accessories for your bots.
• You can upload success images to Facebook when you complete a level.
• When you attack a gold box in a level with Grimlock, instead of waiting for the box to be destroyed to add the coins to your total they stream one by one as the damage is done. You don't need to destroy the box to get some coins. The box seems to change colour as you deplete the coins it contains.
• There is a Leaderboard icon on the map, don't think that was there before.
• While a bot is being upgraded you can now access the list of characters to see their level or buy accessories while the upgrade takes place. You couldn't see the others before, only the bot being upgraded.

The bots are now divided into Groups, they are:

• Rescue Bots - Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Heatwave.
• Instruments of Destruction - Soundwave and Soundblaster.
• Target: 2006 - Ultra Magnus, Galvatron and Jazz.
• Pure Warriors - Lockdown, Energon Lockdown and Brawl.
• The Seekeers - Energon Starscream and Thundercraker.
• Energon Fueled - Energon Grimlock, Energon Soundwave, Energon Galvatron and Energon Optimus Prime.
• Variant Versions - Ultimate Megatron, Ultimate Optimus Prime, Ultimate Grimlock and High Octane Bumblebee.
• Leaders - Bludgeon, Sentinal Prime, Grey Slam Grimlock and Dark Megatron.

• Unlocking all characters in a group will add a percentage bonus to your pig/coin score on a level, max bonus seems to be 40%.
• Characters in certain groups have different abilities. Ultimate characters, for example, get their pig and coin score doubled when they complete a level but if they don't complete it they get nothing at all. Energon characters are more powerful but have weaker shields.



That's about everything I have noticed so far.

That's fairly covers everything we got as well.

Yeah, would have thought they would keep them the same. Does the Android version suffer from crashes when you try to watch a rewards video?

Not really crashes, sometimes they just don't load so you keep trying until you hit your limit.

Plenty of glitches in the game though.

No crashes in the reward video's, aside from that 'Stella'-video from time to time.

The IOS-update seems to cover both Android updates in one go. Good.

Still amazed at how long it took them to roll the update out though. I know Android users had to wait two weeks for the game to be released, but you iOS guys had to wait what ... a month?

An eternity.

Wasn't so bad. The wait allowed me get to my bots up to level 8 and gather many pigs and crystals. Allowed me to unlock all the new bots straight away.

Got all mine (including what you've just unlocked) up to level 7 except for four who are level 8.

Going to be a slog to get them all to level 10.

Oh and the Miles Travelled trophy/achievement still isn't working. Still stuck at 0 miles.

You forgot the most important update, the "Energon Shield" has now become the "State Farm™ Energon Shield." A little ship with a State farm logo now projects the shield onto you.

Hadnt noticed. No idea what State Farm is, never heard of it.

State Farm is an insurance company in the US. Not sure if they are international.

Makes sense that an insurance company gives you a shield.

Also, noticed the Eggbot appears in some levels. You can shoot it in the butt for lots of coins.

These updates. Bah.

I'm not sure why they're advertising this now, because I've had the updated version of the game for about two weeks now, I wanna say.

I finally unlocked level 100 and I don't care for those new levels even a slight bit. That fast forward/slo mo warp gate gimmick is getting on my nerves and if there's a way to use them to my advantage, it's out of my reach, because I can't figure it out. Had to cheat and have Skywarp take care of it for me.

Not all updates are great, this is a great example of such a thing.

At level 120 you get to pig city, which is way more fun.
