Coming Soon: Gmetal
Get ready for a brand new Power Core tier to bring your bots and defenses to the next level!
Gmetal is a new rarity of power cores entirely, more powerful than bronze, silver and even gold! Power Cores of this tier can be obtained by two means:
- Both Bot Gmetal Chip and Building Gmetal Chip will be available to buy in the shop using Prime Core shards
- There is also a small chance to obtain a random Gmetal Power Core from a duplicate 4-Star bot
Gmetal level Cores are currently available for all the cores we have at the moment except time-limited Cores (XP Core & Golden Lagoon Core) with a maximum level of 20.
Gmetal Cores will go live with a content push this Thursday.
New Building: Combiner Beacon
Protect your base with a new defensive building - the Combiner Beacon! Assign a Combiner to defend your base and choose the defensive ability you wish to be used on defense.
The Combiner Beacon is only available at one level and will be unlocked once you reach HQ level 16 in the defense section of the shop.
Steps to use a Combiner on defense:[*]Assign one ability you've unlocked in the Combiner Lab.
[*]Tap the Combiner Beacon building and assign the Combiner you'd like to use on defense.
[*]Charge the Combiner Beacon for 24 hours with 10 Ore-13 (note: you cannot reassign a Combiner while the Combiner Beacon is charged)[*]You can double the duration of the charge by spending more Ore-13
Notes:
- The Combiner will automatically appear amongst your other outpost bots and it will not affect the timing of the battle.
- The Combiner stats while on defense will be affected by the Combiner Beacon same as normal Outpost bots are weaker in the outpost. The Combiner will have 30% of his total health but 100% of its damage.
- Ore-13 Harvesting will be boosted from 1.25 per hour to 1.60 per hour.
Combiner Beacon will be available after a content push this Thursday!
New Bots: Punch & Counterpunch
Two new bots are joining the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
Punch walks a tightrope - balancing his own somewhat paranoid persona with that of his hair-trigger alter-ego, Counterpunch.
Though outwardly he seems calm and in control, Punch is a tightly wound ball of insecurities, doubts and fears - certain that any moment he'll be exposed as a double-agent. Punch minutely measures his words, judging when to speak (if at all) and how much to say.
Nevertheless, there's a stoic and grim determination about him to see the job through, no matter what the personal cost to Punch's immortal Spark.
So complete is Punch's masquerade, his alter-ego Counterpunch is as much a Decepticon as the most committed and zealous of Megatron's acolytes. A talented actor with chameleon-like instincts, Counterpunch is every inch the merciless and violent character he purports to be.
The deception is sometimes so complete, he actually deceives himself - believing that Counterpunch is the real him and Punch the faction-flipped creation.
It allows Punch/Counterpunch to indulge his darker instincts with impunity, and though - thus far - he has remained loyal to the Autobots, many have cause to wonder whose cause he truly serves.
Covert Operation: You get undercover for 10 seconds and throw EMP grenades at defences dealing damage over time and disabling them for some seconds.
Under Investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Superion/Devastator are displayed as a grey dot in battle.
- We identified this issue since the latest update. It's a visual issue and it's not likely to affect the gameplay. In most cases, this issue should only happen in the very first battle after the update and they should be visible from 2nd battle. This may get fixed if you visit the combiner lab.
Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements are coming to the game soon.
- 5-Star Silverbolt/Thundercracker: The damage over time effect from the special ability could be stacked multiple times on a single target.
- This is no longer the case.
- G1 Power Cores Graphic issue
- We fixed the background color for the following G1 cores: Hot Spot, Ironhide, Ratchet and Wheeljack’s G1 Core Icon.
- Nexus Prime Core Improvement
- We have increased the % of additional damage your Combiner deals, when you deploy the equipped bot before your Combiner.
- When the bot equipped is in battle, Combiners on defense now receive additional damage.
- The % of protection against raid damage remains the same.

Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements went live on 16/09/2019 with a content push.
- Upgrading issue for Gmetal cores
- Some Gmetal cores were unable to fuse at some level.
- To fix this issue, we temporarily changed all the combiner abilities of the Decepticon combiners so that they much the Autobot ones but this issue will not have a functionality change, it will only be a change in the ability’s name, icon and some vfx. If you are Decepticon players and have assigned a Combiner ability on defense already, you might have to reassign in some cases
- We reduced the distance that your attacking bots will chase a defensive combiner so that they will only chase the combiner when he comes near them.
Twitch
Two sides of the same coin, Punch & Counterpunch have joined the Earth Wars to act as Masters of Espionage and Sabotage.
Their allegiances may be unclear and their minds twisted, but their prowess in battle is unquestionable!

Our friends at Space Ape Games just sent us a message to let us know some extremely exciting news for fans of the Transformers and GI Joe franchise. The Joe characters are teaming up with our favorite Cybertronians in their battles in the Transformers Earth WarsTransformers Earth Wars mobile gaming app[/url]. Cobra teams up with the evil Decepticons to battle GI Joe and the heroic Autobots ... an alliance many Transformers and GI Joe fans alike love to see happen. Check out the information below from Space Ape games along with the launch trailer for GI Joe's debut in Transformers Earth Wars.
Knowing is Half the Battle.
Flesh and metal collide as a group of elite fighters armed with state-of-the-art technology merge with the world of Autobots and Decepticons.
The G.I. Joe franchise is making its debut in Transformers: Earth Wars. Players will get the chance to unlock Joe team vehicle versions of Autobots Hound and Jetfire, and Cobra versions of Decepticons Soundwave and Skywarp. A pair of the new characters are scheduled to be released the week of October 21st.
Accompanying the new Bots in the Showroom and in-game Dialogue, will be appearances by G.I. Joe characters Duke, Scarlett and Snake Eyes as well as Cobra Commander, Baroness and Storm Shadow from Cobra.
The new characters will not only make a stunning visual addition, but fans will also get to enjoy some of their favorite G.I. Joe tracks, as the new release is bolstered by the original G.I. Joe Soundtrack.
Now you know.
Here are some screen captures featuring some of the awesome scenes from the trailer.

Unfortunately I ended up in an Alliance where the only way to meet their expectations was to drop money now and then.
And then it reached a point where I was still not doing enough and that's when I left the game.
Money aside, it just became too time consuming.
Posted by Stargrave on October 17th, 2019 @ 8:08pm CDT
I’m late to everything so I’ve only been playing a year. It’s not too stale yet and fun to try to save up for 3 stars. I hope this is a cool change for people to keep current players interested and bring back people who got burnt out on it.
My first few teams were full of people who never ever played now I’m just sitting on team Seibertron keeping the alliance posted of fun events and freebies.

I mean what is anyone going to do about this?
If someone wants to bankrupt themselves over a single game their gonna end up doing that one way or another.
Companies will always exist and attempt to get the biggest amount of money possible with the littlest effort and passion possible, as it is every year you need to make more money then the year before or be a failure, you can't make as much money as you were before.
Earth War's and Forged to Fight might end up shutting down some day when they stop being profitable, but afterwards the next game will pop up like it's happened to the previous mobile games.

If it was for a video game who's servers might not actually be eventually shut down and if it was a better game like some of the console TF games then I would argue otherwise.
But since it is for a mobile game that eventually will have it's severs shut down then yeah it kinda is a waste of money.

That's true, but even some of those are digital downloads. It's a bit of a stretch, but remember that really cool Silent Hill demo on (PS4?) that got taken down? Something about Hideo Kojima leaving the project/Konami, so they pulled it. There was a time when PS4s with that demo on it were selling for silly money.
Another example is the amazing (full voice acting by the original cartoons' cast and music remade by the original theme tune musician, etc) remaster of "Duck Tales" by (Konami?). They lost the licence to sell it and it's getting pulled from all digital shops.

I'm surprised that neither Seibertron, not TFW2005 have covered this. I've submitted the original video to both sites, too. This is pretty big news in the world of (mobile) videogames.

And thanks to our friends at Space Ape games, we have a new video, posted to Seibertron's YouTube channel, that shows off the first efforts of that collaboration, Soundwave as a H.I.S.S. tank and Hound as a G.I. Joe V.A.M.P. complete with transformations back and forth, as well as the totally radical 80s soundtrack. Check it out below, and while you're at it, peruse Seibertron's YouTube channel and see what other awesome Transformers content there is!

But I think it would be awesome if they did use the Joe Vehicles for transformer alt modes.
You're right about Snow Cat.
Here's the thing though: I'm not so sure we AREN'T getting these toys. Remember, Earth Wars was were we first saw the Dinobot combiner Volcanicus well before the toy even came out in Combiner Wars. Now we get the reveal of Earthrise and next thing you know we are seeing GIJoe Transformers in Earth Wars. Plus, it is the 35th Anniversary...we could have a few surprises coming from Hasbro.

A Comment on Backflip Studios
In the past week, news spread about restructuring at Backflip Studios that has lead to a closure of parts of the studio. We want to use this space to give out a clear message that those changes at Backflip do not have any impact on Transformers: Earth Wars or on you, our players.
Space Ape has been running TF:EW, from its development to the day-to-day operation, together with Hasbro, for over 3 years and we will continue doing so. There are no plans other than to stay with you in this game we all love for years to come.
We are working with Hasbro on exciting new features and content for 2020 and are excited to share more as soon as we can.
Happy Halloween!
Here are the spooky contents you will see in the game this weekend.

Under Investigation
Here are the issues reported that we've been investigating:
- Inspiring Charge effect does not apply to bots, when Optimus Prime/Megatron has started their ability while those bots were deploying.
- Improvements to how the following bots behave if Inspiring Charge or Battle Orders abilities start while they are using their ability:
- Slash & Rippersnaper
- Punch & Counterpunch
- Snarl & Hun-gurrr
- Sentius Magnus & Sentius Malus
- Cheetor & Blackarachnia
- Laser Optimus & Armada Megatron
- Impactor
- Slash & Rippersnaper still chase outpost bots after finishing their ability.
- Punch & Counterpunch does not follow Inspiring Charge
Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements are coming to the game with a content push this Thursday.
- We have increased the area of effect for Hound V.A.M.P. and Soundwave H.I.S.S. Glass Gas and Targeting effect. This should also help to keep the number of targets affected in the area more consistent.
- Gold Cybertronian Charge Power Core can now inflict up to 21% more damage if uninterrupted. (Previously 15%)
- G-Metal Cybertronian Charge Power Core can now inflict up to 30% more damage if uninterrupted. (Previously 15%)
- Hot Rod’s Blessing of the Matrix and Nemesis Prime’s Power of Darkness cannot be cast on Quintus Prime Core’s Sharkticons anymore
- Counterpunch can now attack targets behind walls.

C.O.M.B.A.T. Bots
An exciting new addition will soon be coming to Transformers: Earth Wars. For the first time we will be introducing Battle Masters, Micro Masters and Mini-Cassettes bots as characters you can collect. These bots will act as part of the new C.O.M.B.A.T. system that will allow you to change the weapons of your existing bots or add battle companions to any bot.
These new weapons, based on Battle Masters and Micro Masters bots, will add powerful new attacks to your bots and allow players to totally change how some bot classes behave in battle.
The Mini-Cassette companion bots will be equippable to any character and provide them with a powerful companion with its own unique abilities.
The bonus part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. system is that it can coexist with Power Cores, and a bot can have both a C.O.M.B.A.T. bot equipped and a Power Core!
The following C.O.M.B.A.T. bots will be joining the game first with more to follow soon.
For more information about the C.O.M.B.A.T. system tune into our livestream this week.
Prime League Effects
The time has come to update the extra battle effects in Prime League and also in the new Prime Zone.
The new effects starting from today are the following:
- Defenses explode dealing 5x their dps upon death
- Defences heal for 15% of damage dealt
Alliance Event: Tug of War
A new Alliance Event: Tug of War is starting!
Starting Thursday 26th March 16:00 UTC until further notice, teaming up with your friends and winning Alliance War Leagues will reward:
- Triple Alloy
- Triple Energon
- Triple Spark
- And 1,000 Premium Crystal Shards per league
Gather your friends and prove your dominance in this special Alliance Wars event!

That happened to me but then I updated google play games and now it works fine.
