Nothing to shoot

[nemisispig]

Purchased Epic Optimus last night and have run couple of nodes with him with no problems, can’t get past the current node tho as there is nothing to shoot,not even the markers to create the energon bridge!

You’re not the only one. Someone on the Facebook group reported the same issue that there are no tagerts to shoot. And it seems to only be an issue with EOP (so far).

They ran into that problem while trying to run a Pig City node. @nemisispig is that also where you’re having the problem?

Yes,issue is with Pig City node and only with EOP,sure the other nodes before were desert or beach.

Same here

Video of this glitch. Level 1 Epic Optimus Prime
Video of Level 1 Epic Optimus

Second video a day later. Epic Optimus is Level 7
Level 7 Epic Optimus

In both cases I got app generated phonies so I had no problem watching them take a dive with my bot.

My score in both cases:
Pigs: 0
Coins: +2
Recharge: -1200 coins

Looks like a losing proposition.

Thanks for posting those, but just FYI the privacy has been set such that you can only view them if you’re logged into Facebook.

@optimuspig
Well there is no way to post them here and I have no other place to share/post them, so I am sorry that is the only way I could do it.

Got this too. Quit before Epic fell down the hole and then got around it by paying a gem to change character.

Same issue here at level 5 in pig city.

Hello all,

Thanks for reporting this issue. Just to let you know, we have identified the cause and expect to be able to fix it within the next few days.

Is EOP working in any other levels? I have only seen him fall down, while earning three coins a turn, any thoughts?

Got this too – Empty Level for Epic Optimus Prime

Epic Optimus Prime: level 7
Place: Golden Dome in Pig City node

Got this, used a gem to change character, it happened again with Soundblaster. Used another gem, and Jazz got something to shoot.

Received an update to 1.11.3.3 (android) and was able to play the node.

Thanks @gradientturtle7

The only “fix” to this problem so far seems to be:
1. Pay gems to switch your character. That character will play properly.
2. The next time Epic Fail Optimus Prime comes up he will play properly.

So we had to pay lots of gems just to get him (not to mention the 10 gems at the start of the competition which had to be refunded). Now we have to pay gems to switch characters just so EFOP doesn’t start in a Wiley Coyote cartoon.

I have only tested step 1, I will be testing step 2 tomorrow after EFOP hits level 12.

Rovio posted an in game message to say it works now. Tried a level and all is good.
