Our friends at DeNA dropped by to let us know about the latest event in their Transformer: Legends mobile device game, "Covert Operations". The new event, which introduces new "Evolution Cards", starts today. Click here to download the app.

TRANSFORMERS: LEGENDS will introduce the first Campaign in-game episode called Covert Operations and Evolution Cards beginning today, Wednesday, July 31. Please see details on the latest episode’s storyline and details on the Evolution Cards below.

Who:

DeNA and HASBRO are excited to bring Covert Operations and Evolution Cards and the new episode type Campaign to the popular card battle mobile game TRANSFORMERS: LEGENDS.

When:

The TRANSFORMERS: LEGENDS Covert Operations campaign episode is available to play beginning today, July 31 through Tuesday, August 6.

What:
Autobot operations have seen a series of setbacks lately. Each incident in itself may seem harmless, but the Autobots Blaster and Prowl have seen a pattern emerging where every major Autobot operation is slowly hampered and brought to a slowdown. Too delicate for a regular Decepticon ploy, this Decepticon operation is all about stealth, infiltration and hit and run attacks. In a response the Autobots send their best operatives that are the perfect fit to counter this new threat…

New Features:

Evolution Cards – You can now get a new type of cards: Evolution Cards. By merging evolution cards together you create a new card. This new card is more powerful, has new art and inherits a portion of the stats of the previous cards. The card can be evolved 3 times and every max levelled card used gets the 10% stat bonus. Fully evolved cards not only get a special battle bonus, they also play short animations in which you can see them transforming from their alt mode into robot mode!

Campaign Episodes – In the new Campaign Episode you must bring you strongest deck of cards and fight you way through increasingly difficult waves of enemies and bosses!

There are 3 Episode Campaigns; Easy, Medium and Hard. Each Campaign consists of a series of battlefields and missions, each of which becomes tougher while you progress through the campaign. The tougher the enemies, the more points and rewards you earn. Defeated enemy cards can be captured using Energon Nets and Energon Chains. Use these captured cards to improve your deck, level up your cards and complete your Cyberdex. Capturing cards also grant you more points and give extra rewards!

Each Campaign has an unique boss that is an Evolution Card. Clear the battlefields to reach these bosses and defeat them. Then you can capture the card and evolve the card up. On the Hard campaign the battlefields from 5 and up each feature the Evolution Card boss, and the higher the battlefield the higher the capture chance!

That art is very 80s looking down to the fact that I can see Blasters left forearm but not his shoulder...

I just read that someone spent 30 bucks and didnt get over 1.5mil in score and suggested that the leader must spend a fortune. I hate to tell you dude but I finish every episode with over 3mil in points and usually rank in the 2k area getting me 3 new cards with alts and weapons if you include the points award and I spend ZERO $ ...ever. no battle cubes no bridges. If your spending money and still getting a crap rank your just doing it wrong sorry.

How many hours a day are you playing?

Well they just lost a player. I'm done with this garbage. I played this episode nonstop since it started a few hours ago. I added up all the missed points from failed captures. The most points I possibly could have had was just over 6 million. So imagine how pissed I am when I see the leader already has 30 million points.
So I call BS for sure. Mobage can bite my shiny metal ass.

Depends on what you want out of it- since starting 5 eps ago, I finish around 4-7000 and I have never dropped a dime and play half-hearted. Time and time again, I hear people pissed they got jack and "I dropped $XXX" and I have double their rankings without a dime. If people are dropping tonnes of money.... suckers, in most cases I'd say they are play with no strategy.

I stopped playing eons ago cause i started spending money but i'm curious as to what this "strategy" you speak of that gets you such a high ranking without spending a penny?
Enlighten me.

Doesnt really matter now. They changed the whole thing. Seems abolutely pointless to have allies now. This random energon net is total bs. Its pretty obvious they dont want you to enjoy the game they just want money...which isnt going to happen cus now im just gonna stop playing...I have played this game from its first opening day...I have at LEAST 1 card from EVERY episode they put out. But now...its just too much. And they couldnt even fix the pvp part,which is still rediculus.

I'd heard that they did a new format to the episodes so I logged in to give it a try. Wow. It is so utterly boring that I could not even play it. Allies are now utterly pointless. Battling has been and continues to be pointless. 3/4s of the games is all pointless.

The description of the episode made promise of new evolution cards. Do you ever get them? I got one for free for joining the episode and then I got the same exact card after completing one of the tiers, I think. Not quite sure what the point of making the same exact card available in the episode was if they give it to you for free anyway. Has anybody played long enough to actually get to a point that the cards that you "net" are actually worth having? Is it just battling and netting 2s and 3s the whole time?

I am going back to being retired. My first impression of this new format is that it isn't worth trudging through the doldrums of the early tiers to get through to the later ones.

That Blast Off looks incredible.

I may be the only one, but I'm still playing. Not a fan of the evolution cards, but they could be cool if they go in the right direction. Like I could see this being the way they brought about combiners.

These are starting to get on my nervses. The past five that have been on i havent played becausevits useless to get anywere and get even one cards. With this i was in love with. The ONLY card i want it Blurr and i tried and tried to get to a posistion i could get in to get him but i coulsnt. This game is inpossible to get anything! Its rediculous! When i fist played these missions they were easy. I couldnt get in the top 100 but i was able to get just below it. Now its no fun anymore. This is just not fun. I really wish they add some kind of car trade with others. I want that Blurr card so bad its not funny.

meh. transformers legends has some beautiful artwork for such a shitty, money gluttonous game.

played this for about a month before i realized that it's impossible to advance or get any good cards without spending hundreds of dollars every week just to get in a good position to reap any decent rewards.

tell you what though. i'd play hmw if it were an app. it's free and it's awesome. all it demands is time and imagination.

That and it's such a repetitive time sink. The only cool thing was having a "gallery", showing what you unlocked, but that's gone, so there's no way to keep track of the cool looking but non-competitive cards anymore other than hoarding it. I thankfully have not spent an excessive amount of money on this game, but I'm pretty much done with it.

Actually the Cyberdex screen is still there, but you have to access it through the profile screen now.

Glad i stopped playing this game and spending money on it before i realized wasting hard earned cash on intangible playing cards that are rendered obsolete before i know it in a feeble attempt to be the top of the heap in the meaningless cash grabbing merry go round that is Tranformers: Legends.
Get out while you can. The art is shit hot though. I'll give it that. But FO otherwise.
