An infection is spreading through the Autobot and Decepticon ranks, filling even the mightiest bots with terrors and fear!
Join Springer and Astrotrain to investigate this new thread in the next Quintessa chapter to earn a NEW Avatar, Spark, and Crystal Shards!
Visions from Beyond
Autobots and Decepticons have become infected by a new threat from Quintessa: a strange affliction which paralyzes brave bots with fear.
An expedition has been sent back to Quintessa to discover the origins of the affliction but what they find may be worse than the affliction they're suffering…

Under Investigation
Here are some of the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Attack core show an increase of healing dps stats in Healer profiles.
- 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. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.

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?
Posted by primalxconvoy on October 26th, 2017 @ 6:40pm CDT
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.

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.
Posted by Black Bumblebee on November 4th, 2017 @ 5:20pm CDT
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.
Posted by Burn on November 4th, 2017 @ 5:25pm CDT
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.

Several Transformers related websites have different info regarding these updates and the exclusive we have been given is Victorion's ultimate move.
Skill description:
- Noble Sacrifice: Deal heavy damage and disable enemies over a large area while losing 20% of your max Health. If this ability kills you, disable the enemy base for 10 seconds.
- Cooldown: 30 seconds
- Damage (Level 1): 880 in an area
You can see this move in the video below
You can learn about Menasor's ultimate move by visiting TFW2005 and you can find the game by going here. Here are the other sites who participated in sharing elements of this update, let us know what you learn from there in the comments!

Both debuted this weekend. Only the 2* versions are available at the moment, 3* and 4* versions in the morning after the event.

It'd be a bit odd for at least Victorion not to be six bot, considering Rust Dust is both in-game, and really clearly slapped on her chest like the toy. Plus the Autobots don't have a six-team yet, right? So it'd just even out the combiners.

Superion is a six bot combiner for game purposes, Powerglide forms his gun. So far all combiners have been roughly equal to each other in composition and abilities, but evidently Menasor is going to be five parts while Victorion is six. Apparently the reasoning is that the Rust Renegades have all been in the game since launch while Motormaster is a fairly new character who will have been harder to get at 3 or 4 stars.

I guess that makes sense. I was kinda hoping for Offroad to be put in somehow.

I was betting on one of Offroad, Brake-Beck, or Dead End taking the chest car slot somehow. Apparently not. Therefore I'm not sure why they even added him, since the game was released after Combiner Wars was mostly over.

There were some good alliances out there, and I fully understood the expectations, but trying to squeeze as much playing time in during weekend events just became untenable.
Freedom from it has been wonderful.

Also, Burn is super right. It had become a chore to spend all my time on this thing, especially on my already busy weekends. Worse yet? Some people have a very large, expendable income so even if I used all my power cells perfectly and worked the cooldowns perfectly, I wouldn't even make a dent in some of the higher performers. It kind of felt like ramming my forehead into a wall for seventy two hours and getting nothing but useless two star novelties for it.

#Sideways# wrote:I mean, wasn't everything in this game already G1-esque? Like, since it was based off the toy designs of a G1-based toyline, and all, it's kind of redundant to have this event in the first place.
I stopped playing some months ago cos out of the two transformers mobile games on my phone i only really wanted to have one of them and Forged to Fight has the movie bots I so much prefer over G1(esque) so making it even more G1 isn't gonna pull me back to it. Plus i far prefer a much closer view of robots smashing up each other so FtF is more my thing in other ways.

Exactly this. And Alliances were getting more and more competitive so you either spent big (and then only ended up with a 3*) or go away. Loyalty meant nothing to those with Trust Funds.
Posted by galvatron00 on July 13th, 2018 @ 8:18am CDT
I forgot how much funds people threw in to this game. I couldn't keep up at all with Seibertron's team that I was on with Cobotron and carytheone. They left before I did, but ultimately I just said "So long, and thanks for all the fish."
It was fun at the beginning building a base and stuff, but unlike Sim City or The Simpsons: Tapped Out you can't just go on forever without throwing in a bunch of money.
