See just how much you will get ripped off.
"Premium crystals" what a laugh.

We received some fun news from Hasbro directly, as they attended SXSW this past weekend, and together with Mashable House, helped launch (yes, again) the upcoming Transformers: Earth Wars mobile device game. The event featured a new social media platform account on Snapchat, as well as a live set from the upcoming Roll Out album, with Mount Holly, and a Bumblebee suit like the ones seen at Universal Studios! Check out more info and images below!

If you haven’t already seen on social media, it was a MASSIVE week for the Transformers at SXSWi. The brand partnered with the Mashable House to spread the word about the Spring launch of TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS, a new real-time strategy combat game which fans can pre-register for now (at the hyperlink) to receive a free character when the game launches. The week also marked the official launch of OptimusPrime’s Snapchat (handle: optimusprime)!

As part of the action, Hasbro’s Transformers brought along a 10-ft tall, fully functional Bumblebee transformer that visitors had a blast taking photos with. Bumblebee was also in attendance for the TRANFORMERS PARTY on Saturday, March 12, where attendees drank custom cocktails like The Marg-a-tron and Bumblee-tini and rocked out to an exclusive live performance by Mount Holly, who performed their new title track Roll Out from the upcoming Transformers-inspired studio album Roll Out.

I have to say, the campaigns are fairly difficult once you get into the second and third maps. I try several times with various approaches and usually win by luck more than anything. Maybe I just suck at strategy. My team is megatron, Bludgeon, and the two star Starscream and Thundercracker. I usually let Megs lead with a seeker close behind, but the mortars do too much damage to him that is hard to compensate for, even if I charge into and destroy the nearest cannon fairly quickly.

Use your flyers to target the mortars and beam lasers first. Those need to be taken out as quickly as possible. Especially flyers that have acid rounds (those are super swesome). If weapons are close enough, you can target 2-3 with the flyers. Use a warrior like bludgeon to block for your weaker bots.

If you can, start attacking rivals to grind up levels. You may have to upgrade your scanner. Also look into your research station to upgrade your bots. You can carry a larger team into battle when you upgrade your ship.

The first part is pretty tough to get a foot hold in. Grind grind grind, also save your coins for another builder bot.

I can quickly see the problem with this game, where they intend to trap impatient players. Energon is so much harder to collect than alloy and you use more of it. I have two Alloy refineries and two Energon mines and while my alloy is maxed, my energon is barely half full. All my team needs research (except Megatron, who I went ahead and spent energon on research for) and odds are by the time I can get them all researched and ready to level up again, Megs will be level 20 or something. Or I'll have stronger bots available, if my time in Legends and Battle Tactics is any indication.

Isn't that always the nature of these types of games, to get you to pull out your wallet? I'm always waiting around for resources and I tend to be short energon the most.

One of the first things I do is max my resource generators and storage. I also go fight to get more resources. I find that when I lose a battle I lose more energon than alloy.

So when I'm upgrading bots that only require energon (and spark of course) I spend my alloy on upgrading walls (that only need alloy). Once I get my bots upgraded I focus on my weapons before upgrading my HQ.

I only upgrade my HQ if I've run out of other stuff to do or I want to upgrade my scanner, research station or ship. I haven't been able to definitely put a finger on this, but I'm suspect that the higher lvl your HQ is the higher the lvl of people get to attack you (it may just take all you defenses into account though).

The higher your points the higher attacks you attract.

I have bot power around 2,900 and points around the same mark. I was attacking two spots above my recommended level and quite often winning. Slowly my points built up and once they went over 3,000 I now attract a lot tougher opponents, which, seeing as I spent so much time punching above my weight, my base doesn't match my points so I get thumped a lot.

I'm in the same boat. I'm regularly beating zones that I'm under powered for.

I con confirm that someone told me that my base was in zone 9 while I was fighting in zone 7.

And by points you mean medals or rank?

Medals.

Speaking of which, what happens when your base is attacked? Do you have to rebuild? I apparently haven't been victim to any attacks yet, or at least I haven't been notified of it.

BTW I'm in the Seibertron league, GentlemnPyro is my screenname there.

That Bot wrote:Speaking of which, what happens when your base is attacked? Do you have to rebuild? I apparently haven't been victim to any attacks yet, or at least I haven't been notified of it.

It's rebuilt automatically, you do lose resources & medals though. No idea how that's calculated though.

Do you know you've been attacked or do you just have to keep tabs on your resources?

That Bot wrote:Do you know you've been attacked or do you just have to keep tabs on your resources?

When I log in it will replay it for me. You should also be able to access the "historical" battles through the menu.

That Bot wrote:BTW I'm in the Seibertron league, GentlemnPyro is my screenname there.

Well howdy; I'm sure you can guess my alliance UN

CarryTheCon, clever.
Hopefully you guys can forgive me for not participating in the wars right now, I scouted the opponent and they're way out of my league still. Even tried a few battles and lost horribly. No point wasting my resources.

Speaking of resources, I'm doing better on them. I started taking on level 2 opponents despite my team being very under the recommended level (at the time, although I've almost bridged the gap now) and that's vastly helped my supply. Energon output is as high as I can get it at my HQ level, and I'm going around upgrading everything else before I level my HQ up. It keeps me from becoming a glass cannon, hopefully. I still haven't been attacked.

Don't sweat it, they're out of my league as well. The good news is that in the alliance wars the only resource you waste on loses are fuel cells and time.

My progress was super slow as well until I was able to jump to zone 2. I'm currently fighting in zone 4 (which ever one recommends 1500 power) and my squad only has just over 1000 combined power. I'm slowly creeping towards topping my medals out again (1600). All that is really required to play the game is time, patience and perseverance. You'll get there, just keep hammering away at it.

Don't forget to upgrade your ship (and your bots for that matter) when you can, so you can carry more bots into battle (makes a huge difference).

Heh, I've had my ship upgraded to four bots for about a week. I can't carry more until I upgrade my HQ to level 6, which as I said, I'm not doing until everything else is maxed out, which at this point is just my scanner and a few walls. I've made a lot of progress on your tip to have my seekers take out the mortars and battle tier 2 opponents instead of tier 1. All my main team members are level 15-16 except my just-acquired Breakdown, who's a rapidly climbing level 5. (I might just make him man the base, but I need to compare his stats to a two star seeker when he's similarly leveled to make that choice) I have walls split between levels 2 and 3, and every piece of weaponry and base fodder I can purchase at my level (including the second builder bot). It's a pretty good base for my level, I think. Now if I could just get attacked to test that theory...

The folks over at Transformers: Earth Wars are having fun with their various marketing platforms and images, and this time bring us a rendition of Megatron sitting on an Energon Throne, with some proper ominous vibes and a dig at a popular TV series also featuring a throne... Check it out below!

Who ever is stationed at the outpost can also fight. You may want to put your highest damage dealer or highest defense bot their.

I've found that the defensive deployers give the AI the biggest fits. My guys will run around in circles wasting time chasing the cassette bots. You may want to consider one of thoses if/when you have one.


Haha @ the energon throne; it's a cool pic. The TF:EW crew are fun!

Megatron looks sad.

pretty cool

We have another update from the Transformers: Earth Wars crew, as Space Ape community manager Deborah meets with developer Adam to talk about a massive overhaul in the Decepticon storyline for the game - to find out what that may be, on this most auspicious of days, check out the embedded video below! Hint: Starscream and Grimlock are both involved.

Silly, Megatron. Food is for eating, not for sitting on.

I may have found the breaking point of my "max everything before upgrading my HQ" strategy: level 4 walls are crazy expensive and I'll have nowhere to invest my Energon in while I try to grind enough alloy to upgrade all my walls to level 4, except upgrading abilities or levels. And that's going to cost more spark than I have available after a while. This is how they get you to spend money, artificially limiting your resources. And we keep falling for it.

Level 4 walls are expensive!


Level 6 cost 160K or so, there's something for you to look forward to.

I have no idea what people really see in these type of games...they are really slow going and boring...

Burn wrote::lol:

Ah, those were the days... Lvl 9 walls cost 560k

Patience is the name of this game. Only the impatient pull out their wallet

I'm in the 3 day upgrade portion of the game. I've got about a week and a half upgrade strategy going on now that includes upgrading my ship and scanner to be able to jump to zone 9 to be able to grind up to 1M alloy to buy a missle launcher a little bit faster.

But of course I need to be able to store that much alloy first. Currently my max alloy storage is at 860k. In the mean time my guys will be approaching lvl 40 so I'll need to consider upgrading my research station and who even knows how much spark and energon it's going take to breach the lvl 40 cap.

Excess resources will be dumped into wall and weapon upgrades. having 4 builder bots is a gift from primus



@ That Bot, sometimes you just got to let one of your resources be maxed and throw away resources won. The good news is that your harvestors can temporarily hold a small amount of resources that can be claimed once your storage has room.



So knowing what it's like to upgrade at higher lvls, is anyone still interested in playing

Burn wrote::lol:

I think I'll take notes from some of the bases I've raided and only have select walls at high level, oy vey. Stacking walls seems like a cheaper alternative, but there's a cap on walls. Ugh.

Needing to upgrade my research station to level bots up every 10 levels is a low blow. And it seems there's a level cap for bots, my one star Bludgeon didn't seem able to upgrade past level 20. I'll find out for sure when I can upgrade my research station, but that comes secondary to upgrading my ship to carry five bots, which is an expensive endeavor. Meanwhile my two-star Megatron and Starscream are ready to upgrade and unable to do so, so I've switched out Screamer with Thundercracker, who I abandoned when I got Breakdown. Also I unlocked the two star Bludgeon so at least I still have three bots who can stand to gain experience from attacking.

Allow me to put your mind at ease. Straight from support themselves.

1 Star – Max level 20
2 Stars – Max level 40
3 Stars – Max level 50
4 Stars – Max level 60

Meanwhile my two-star Megatron and Starscream are ready to upgrade and unable to do so,

Contact support immediately. I have this very same problem with 1 star Starscream and Skywarp. They're stuck at level 10. Cary knows the fun I've had trying to get this sorted as they kept asking for screencaps but wouldn't tell me WHAT they wanted a screencap of. So I took screencaps of everything, sent them to them and am still waiting for a response (it has been the weekend admittedly)

Unless of course your problem is just because you need to upgrade your research lab in which case I'll just be over here in the corner.

Yeah, they're level 20 and I only have a level 1 research station. The only bug I've encountered is that Bludgeon's sword sometimes disappears in his victory animations, and that I often can't see a replay of my defensive battles. That may not even be a bug, I don't know.

Higher res!

So this is interesting. I wake up today and instead of 15 fuel cells, I have about 50. I go into battle, and when I come out, my bots suddenly need to recover between fights instead of being ready to go for another battle immediately.

It's been like that on the Aus/NZ release (beta) for weeks. I told them it was stupid, they told me that it's staying
(Though they did just conduct a survey on it)

I downloaded the beta APK from online since it's not available in the US in any official capacity yet. I don't know if this affects when I get updates shipped out.

You'll have to manually update it that's all.

Yeah, I did that once already when the game notified me of an update. I meant more in-app updates, which this seemed to be since it was a few days between when I updated the app and this.

It's still cool, man. (the second one is the one I was referring to)

This game has done nothing but screw the current players over under the guise of a full game, taking in game purchases, only to change the game so much that those purchases are so restricted they are basically worthless.
When players complain, then they get told its a test version.
These scumbags break both Google and apples policies, and codes of conduct and don't break a sweat.
So many players have dropped out and the game hasn't even started yet.
Every change they make is just another way to make it pay to play.
Don't give them the satisfaction.

Try pulling it directly from their facebook page. I had to open the pic, then expand it, right click and save as.

The res of the one I pulled own is 2048x1152. Apparently mirroring the image reduced the resolution.
