COLLECTED INFORMATION ABOUT THE NEW UPDATE:
Android = v1.8.9.0
iOS = ______
———————————————-
– Someone had to, so I paid the US$12 for the new bot. You also get 400 gems which normally cost $US9, and 4 accessories, 3 of which are Halloween themed and one is black sunglasses.
– Nemesis Prime uses “pig” materials, even though it is “Red” (a bird) in the bot.
Level 2 = 1000, 5 min
Level 3 = 5000, 30 min
Level 4 = 10000 + 1PI, 1 hr
Level 5 = 25000 + 2PI, 3 hr
Level 6 = 50000 + 3PI, 6 hr
Level 7 = 75000 + 4PI + 1BP, 9 hr
– Nemesis Prime weapon at low levels, shoots one energy sphere, which upon hitting the target, does some damage but also throws it up in the air, so when it lands it takes another hit from gravity. He can also transform into a vehicle even at level 1. His vehicle is the big truck like the other Optimus/Red bots.
– Nemesis Prime is in a new squad “ICONIC TRANSFORMERS” with one other yet to be ID new bot. Tapping “?”, it states like before that completing the squad boosts income.
– New buttons on the home screen,
(1) Opens the Lab, but so does (as before) tapping the metal dome.
(2) Shopping cart for purchases. The little “+” button next to gem count still works too.
(3) The third new button advertises the Halloween competition, for smashing pumpkins etc. Opening it you see timer counting down to the start:
** 8pm US eastern time, Oct 21 **
– Inside the Lab, there is a button to see all the Energonicons. I ran recipe, #35 = 2BP+1DG and it still works the same. Gems still 40% of what some of us remember they used to be. Collecting your output still dumps you out of the lab, unfortunately. The glitch where 3BI and 3PI both still give you the Energonicon (even if you got it previously) is still there.
– Thank You rewards: I am getting HUGE numbers of “thank yous” now, as if something has been fixed. As others have posted, so far only 25 coins each, no gems.
– Leaderboard is taking a long time to load. When it finally did, I still have only 32 people on it, and some people I know should be there are still missing, and others, that I could tell quit playing so we are no longer connected on FB, they are still there.
– Playing a node, you are now shown the potential reward (materials or a gem) along with the bot of course, and given the chance to spend 1 gem to change the BOT before you play. The reward didn’t change the 2 times I tried this, wasting 2 gems on “research”.
– **GLITCH** (?) — When selecting a team mate bot, while connected to FB, I am presented with the usual 3 choices. Tapping on the middle or right bot, does nothing. Tapping the left bot works. Paying 100 coins to refresh the choices, does not fix the glitch. Restarting the game, also does not work.
– JENGA is now Halloween themed. There’s a full moon and the walking mortar tower has some glowing green accents. ETC. There are a couple of the pumpkins at the end of the shooter run (phase 2). Maybe they will count towards the contest, for those that might want to spam Jenga to grab the lead.
– No new achievements, still 86 total.
– Silo is still “small”.
– Misson times & rewards look about the same as before.
– Level 441, you become a STUNTICON. Reminds me of a rock climbing route in the SE-USA, called “Cunning Stunt”.
