I dunno. Maybe the toy version looks better (I haven't seen it combined) but that thing up there is a cluttered, badly proportioned, overly-colourful mass of crap. Dunno why the Dinobots have gotta combine anyways. It's ok to have a team of five bots who don't turn into giant body parts... The Dinobots were totally ok with not being combiners for years. And instead of really awesome new toys of those guys we get CW-type crud that look worse and cheaper than the original toys and have only the addition of extra articulation as a true benefit.

Hey there!

 I hope this email finds you in great shape.

 Here’s a digested version of what happened these last days in Transformers: Earth Wars. If you need assets for your posts, please click here. Feel free to use any of them!

 As promised, the ‘Unleashing the Beasts’ series continued! The 3 last episodes, “The Art: Bringing the Combiners to Life”, “The Story with Simon Furman” and “The Toy: How it all began” are live on our Facebook page and YouTube channel. Don’t miss out and follow our social channels for more!

 We “pressed the button” this Tuesday - Volcanicus and Predaking are now available in-game! Also, if you don’t have the bots to combine them yet, you can play them for free in the Challenge Battle. You can access this feature via the newsfeed section.

 Last weekend’s event was called ‘Stolen Secrets’, the start of the new ‘Volcanicus vs Predaking’ saga! It starred the leader of the Dinobots, Grimlock, and the leader of the Predacons, Razorclaw. Will the Dinobots be able to withstand the vicious pounce of the Predacons? Stay tuned as the saga continues this Friday!

 Click here to fight for the Earth. Will you join the heroic Autobots or the ruthless Decepticons?

Optimus Prime and Megatron believe the tides of battle can be turned with their Triple Changers, however, there is something else that will make the Earth Wars even more devastating.

Image

Unknown Power

The tide of war is at bay...

After last week’s showdown of epic proportions, the battle for the Enigma of Combination has come to an inconclusive end.

With dozens of Autobots and Decepticons damaged and evacuated, it’s time to seek alternative solutions...

While Optimus Prime and Megatron make plans for a way to unleash their Triple Changers, a few bots on both sides believe the edge they seek comes from a different place altogether...

Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!

Nebulan technology could be the key to the next stage of the Earth Wars.

Megatron and Optimus Prime make a decision but will curiosity in this technology be too much to ignore for some?



Image

Image

Countdown to Nebulos

The Taste of Power

Megatron rarely takes notes from Optimus Prime's school of leadership. But this time around, he's unknowingly preaching from the same handbook.

The order is simple - Nebulan technology is a distraction, too risky to pursue!

But Perceptor's scientific curiosity and Shockwave's ambition surely mean a quest to uncover the secrets of Nebulan technology will soon commence...

Hey there!

I hope this email finds you in great shape.

As you probably know by now, we launched the Power Cores feature this Tuesday! This new feature will add another layer to Transformers: Earth Wars gameplay, changing the metagame and offering new strategic options to every player.

To announce Power Cores, we created a new video series where Chris (Product Owner) and Adam (Game Designer) chat about how these items will impact the game. Three different videos were published on our YouTube channel and Facebook page:

'What are Power Cores?'



'Power Cores on Bots'



'Power Cores on Defenses'




On top of that, Deb, Adam and Dan answered a lot of questions about Power Cores and more on our weekly stream, called ‘Unknown Power’. You can watch the full session here:



The new Power Cores campaign, written by the legendary Simon Furman, will showcase of Autobots and Decepticon in their quest to discover a new technology from the distant planet of Nebulos. Once finished, you will get the Matrix of Leadership Power Core for Optimus Prime, or the Crown Power Core for Starscream!



Click [ur=http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/clk?id=240454840&iu=/1006790/Text_Linkl]here[/url] to try Power Cores and equip the heroic Optimus Prime with the Matrix of Leadership, or the deceiving Starscream with his Crown!

      This issue will be fixed in the next client release.
  • Wallbuster core showed an increased of dps stats in troop’s profiles. 
      This was a display issue and Wallbuster just affects damage done on walls. This will be fixed in the next client release.
  • Screen touch becomes unresponsive on android devices.
      The majority of users have indicated that the issue was resolved by disabling third party programs which caused a dimming of the device or the blocking of blue light after certain times. We are still investigating this issue. In the meantime make sure that you have disabled Samsung game tools and any other 3rd party software that may be interacting with your devices controls.

These are just a few examples of the reports that we've received from you, and we continue to work hard to improve your experience with the game every day.

We would like to thank you for your time and patience, and if you have any issues to report, please get in touch with us here: [url=VIP@transformersearthwars.com]VIP@transformersearthwars.com[/url]. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.

You could do everyone a favour and redact ALL news concerning this "game" from the site...

The same with "TF: - Forced to Swipe", too!

Cheers!

Because they're "P2W", and in Forged to Fight's case, it has no support for hardware mice (which "Earth Wars" at least has.

Obviously, this isn't going to happen, but as a mobile gamer and TF fan, I can dream that such freemium dross could, one day, be collectively ignored by the fandom...

So once again, because YOU don't like it, we shouldn't report it.

This is the second such instance of you saying we shouldn't news something because you didn't agree with it. You are aware that you can just scroll on and actually are NOT forced to read such things yeah?

Burn,

I know that. I'm not honestly asking you to actually block it. It's in context; we were discussing that perhaps the company would want you to redact news, and by association, someone who doesn't like such software also chipped in and asked for you to purposely throw the baby out with the bathwater. That's all.

Under Investigation

Here are some of the issues reported that we've been investigating:
  • Troops not following Inspiring Charge in certain scenarios: There are rare occasions when bots will not follow Optimus Primes/Megatron's Inspiring Charge.
      This is currently under investigation.
  • Medics continuously healing each other: After deploying two healers, it is possible for them to start healing each other and not target other bots.
      This will be fixed in this week's content release.
    Issues related to the Shock Tower:
    In certain scenarios, bots outside the buildings range can be damaged by its attack.
    When hacked by a bot on offense, the Shock Tower will not always deal damage to all the surrounding buildings in its range.
    • Both of these issues will be fixed in the next client release.

These are just a few examples of the reports that we've received from you, and we continue to work hard to improve your experience with the game every day.

I love how the title makes it sound like Triple Changers are launching this week when it's more likely next week or the week after. Probably a leaderboard event.

EDIT: I didn't notice the special campaign. So that's nice.

Not that I suddenly dislike Spring or (especially) Sandstorm... But I am hoping for a Titan Master version of each. Maybe in a PotP Box set. Or the series after PotP. Whatever.

"Troops not following Inspiring Charge in certain scenarios: There are rare occasions when bots will not follow Optimus Primes/Megatron's Inspiring Charge"

Lol, this has been an issue since the beta, is not rare, and they're just now claiming to investigate the issue. Although it is kinda in character for individual Decepticons to have a 50/50 chance of actually following Megatron.

I really wish Hasbro would spend time/money on an expansion or sequel to Transformers: Devastation or redo/remaster the 2004 PS2 Transformers game, instead of wasting money on pay-to-win mobile games that keep getting canned after the devs anger the fanbase enough.

The pay to play method is a money maker. Very little R&D, very little $$$ to develop, and rather than having people pay for it once, they pay, and pay, and pay, and pay...

I don't like it, but if you look at the time & money that goes into a standard platform, and the fact that people just buy it once for $60 (or wait for it to go on sale in a year for $20), a cell phone game that causes addicted people to dump thousands into it is a safer investment.

Like you said, less R&D required. A lot of these games are just reskinned with the core program adapted from another similar type game.

I personally would love to see a Age of Empires/Command & Conquer style Transformers game, but I know it's not going to happen because that style of game would simply not generate a lot of money.

I don't know, there is a new Age of Empires coming out in the near future.

Just wanted to drop a note for any interested parties, Autobots We Rise is actively recruiting. We are a growing group with a minimum of 1000 points per person for Alliance Events.

We are a group of adults, generally, and war 1 to 2 times a week.

We have no minimum to join, but expect you to pull your weight and grow with the rest of the team.
