New Bots: Streetwise & Sinnertwin
Two Special class bots: Streetwise and Sinnertwin are joining the Earth Wars this weekend!


Nothing escapes Streetwise's notice, and even the most seemingly insignificant details get filed away in his hyperactive processor for further analysis. Put simply, Streetwise is an environmental sponge.
Put him anywhere in the galaxy and he'll know the place like the back of his hand in hours. Right down to the local dialects and slang expressions - which he often adopts.
With armaments such as double-barrelled air compressor cannon and sensor-blinding photon pistol, he packs a punch equally in both robot and car mode.


Inactivity weighs heavily on Sinnertwin, and if he's not ravaging or destroying something on a fairly regular basis he gets a little restless, and restlessness equates to going out and finding something to tear to shreds with his teeth, horns or claws.
Mayhem on any level brings him a singular pleasure, and Autobot cries and screams are music to his audio modules.
In his twin-headed dragon-like beast mode he has numerous weapons at his disposal, including a back-mounted flame cannon and internal flamethrowers that allow both heads to breathe fire.
Streetwise and Sinnertwin have the same ability.

Timesplit Grenade: Shoots a timesplit grenade. When caught in the explosion, every ally is 30% faster while enemies are 30% slower. Both effects last for seconds.
Their challenge battle will be available via newsfeed prior to the weekend event!

Pretty much this. I quit about this time last year for good cause it took almost your entire weekend to compete in an event to be in an alliance.
It lost the fun and became a chore, so I left.

It just got big, you had a smaller group of players ruling the game and there are some BS things that have happened. It's just the life of a game sadly.
It needs to be better on more casual players. Casual free to play players basically can't do too much with any speed

If you have the time, it's newsworthy. Forward the e-mail you got to me (my seibertorn e-mail) and I will send you the code to post on the site.

I’ve been playing for... less than a year I think? I haven’t burnt out yet but for anyone who’s cooled off on the game does this motivate you to give it another shot?
Sound off Seibertronians! Lemme hear your praise or feel free to spew some humorous vile venom about your experiences with the game.
And hey any tips, always appreciated

New Bots: Blades & Dirge
Two Aerial bots are joining the Earth Wars this weekend!


Despite his aerial proficiency and high-altitude targeting dexterity, Blades is a 'street-level' kind of 'bot, preferring to look his foe in the optic and get down and dirty like the streetfighter he is. He considers long-range attacks unsporting and cowardly, and would rather detach his rotor blades and slash through the enemy ground forces. But most times Blades concedes he was built for the skies, and his twin rocket launchers and dazzling photon bursts make him a highly effective aerial asset. Something his fellow Protectobots deeply appreciate.

Safe Zone: Drop a hack bomb dealing damage in an area. Confuse the targets for seconds (reducing their attack speed to 40% and making them attack your foes).


It's fair to say Dirge is a tank half-empty kind of 'con. His mournful, silent manner unnerves even his fellow Decepticons, and the sound of Dirge's engines has an uncanny effect on friend and foe alike. The chilling overture is merely the prelude to the petrifying fear they induce in whoever's in audio range, the unique combination of frequencies inducing acute, paralyzing fear and disorientation. However, if Dirge's concentration slips, he can fall prey to his own engine noise. But then he always has his air-to-air missile launchers and machine gun ports to fall back on.

Fear Inducing Signal: Drop a hack bomb dealing damage in an area. Confuse the targets for seconds (reducing their attack speed to 40% and making them attack your foes).
Check out Dirge in battlefields in Skywarp Greer's latest video!

DIRGE : First Look. New Bot: Transformers Earth Wars

Dawn Of TITANS
The Prime Core struggle has woken from their slumber the towering behemoths Metroplex and Trypticon. It will take the combined might of a whole Alliance to take them down before they ravage through Cybertron.
You can soon fight the Titans Metroplex and Trypticon in Raid battles and win cool new rewards...

More powerful than even the strongest combiner, these two Titans are coming to Earth Wars to fight against you in Raids!
Stay tuned for more details.

Under investigation

Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Slash & Rippersnapper change targets and prioritise enemy outpost bots even though they are far away
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: support@transformersearthwars.com. Alternatively, you can reach out to us in game via Menu > Community > Contact Support.
