If you actually read the posts, you'd knew it already is.
If you want to know if when it's available for an iWhatever.. 95% of the mobile world doesn't care, really.

I personally don't consider iConsumers smart buyers to begin with. Since their marketshare is dropping rapidly you now see plenty of devs ignoring the platform because of its Stalinist control methods and money greedy marketplace operators. Mobage simply makes more money on the Android platform's in-game purchases and combined with overwhelmingly better sales numbers the SANE choice is quickly made.
Yes, I do plan to gangnam style all over the iQuit grave.

People that buy every Apple product when it comes out every time are not smart buyers. How about those who have an iPhone (3, 4, whatever) and that's it? Are we bad investors because we wanted one of their phones?
I'm sure we're getting off topic here, anyway. Nightwalker, the game is out in Europe, but I have not been able to find it on iOS yet. It probably is...I don't know. I don't care either.

protip: don't waste any time upgrading L1 and L2 cards.
Posted by _Anshin_ on December 15th, 2012 @ 5:47am CST
For example, I upgraded the leader off of 1 bone crusher, then a trans-bone crusher, then an upgraded bone crusher, then an upgraded trans-bone crusher and recorded all of the upgrade points.

If anyone wants to add me name is Liquidrage64. I'm shooting 30 allies now so I can get 3 random cards a day minimum. Half way there
A few thoughts on the game.
The prices for the "bought" cards are ridiculous. I threw $10 at it just to see what I would get, and also to support the people that made it. Stupid. One card for 300 gold (or about $3 worth) is utterly insane. If it were a Booster Pack where I got 10 cards I'd probably send $50 on this puppy tonight. LOL sue me, it's my personality and I really like the game a lot. But for 1 card, that's insane. I took my 3 cards, have 100ish gold leftover I might never spend now, and moved on. I'm sure they'd make more money giving more "bang" for your buck with the Booster Packs, but I guess that's not their business plan.
Second, as someone mentioned, don't level your Rarity 1 cards, or probably even Rarity 2 cards unless you think you'll just play for a few hours. You'll end up with level 7 or 8 Rarity 1/2 very quickly, and those leveled cards aren't as good as throwing the cards individually to level up.
Bounce back and forth between both factions as your get your Autobot weapons from Decepticons missions and vice versa.
If you pick someone for good battle points that you just beat, look for them in the list again. There's a good chance they're there, and since you just beat them 95% chance you'll beat them again. There's only a little bit of randomness in the battles. I've never lost a "rematch".
Anyways, some of that might be known/obvious/wrong. But there's not a lot of info out there about the game and just throwing my 2 cents in as to what I've figured out.
***
Also question for everyone playing, at least picking Autobots as your main so you got the "head start" there.
I got the Sword of OP pretty much right away. Level 4 Elite weapons card. Everyone that picked Autobots got that I assume and I just didn't get "super lucky", correct?

I found that Battles up to ~60 BP are "Safe" for me"

I haven't seen any L4 weapon cards yet!
I did get my L4 Megatron fairly early in the game and as he's doing 12.000 damage per shot (he's L61 out of 65 now) you basically win every battle that doesn't include L4 opponents.

Stop the Insecticon invasion of Earth inside TRANSFORMERS: Legends! It's up you and your team to hunt for the Insecticons and defeat them before they destroy life as we know it. Harvest of the Insecticons is a limited time special event inside TRANSFORMERS: Legends. Play it now!

I don't see anything on their website about the insecticons. Saw the add last night on Facebook, clicked the link and still no luck.
Question:
When playing a mission and you either win a rare card or a weapon do they show up in the mission list? I've gotten doubles and triples of lv3 weapons and they never shop up as "acquired"

You need to restart the app (not suspend and resume) it should show up then. or what I did, play 1 extra mission after a restart and then it will update the mission spoils.

and lol@iPhone users (you're the beast wars kids of the phone world.)
edit:
It basically replaces the boss encounters in the normal missions (the ones where you get weapons.)
The rewards are huge (2K per battle, recharge energon/battle cubes etc.) and the points you score decide your reward at the end of the event.
I think the ultimate reward is an L4 kickback.. I just sent out my cons against him and Megs one-shot him.

That comment served no purpose.
I'm sorry, but I'm honestly getting sick of this. It's one thing to prefer one phone over another, and it's another to mock it. Respect our choice like we respect yours.
This isn't the iOS vs. Android thread.
Posted by liquidrage64 on December 21st, 2012 @ 3:05pm CST
Regardless, the rewards let you refill everything like crazy, which is the most important thing to me. You can basically scan and battle non-stop at the current races bosses show up and give rewards.
The cards you can "buy" or "get" have a special 3x or 5x on them but I think that will only last during the event. The cards are uber powerful right now though.

Every boss you defeat you get about 4 silver medals and 2 battle recharge cubes. after 3 battles I have about 30 cubes to spend on attack bonuses etc. remember, I one-shot kickback :p

Burn wrote:So our energon doesn't get restored when we move up levels now?
At least you get the energon containers after taking down a kickback.
edit: wow, finally the spacebridge works again! it gives you 10 cards per opening (provided you have more than 10 silver medals.)
So far everything is crap L1/L2 except for 1 BB vehicle mode
Just checked, a decked out megs (l3 weapon) does 58K damage versus an L5 kickback.

You also "cheer" them which gives you points to open another space bridge option.
