A big thanks to @mighty-red-1 for the awesome first look video above.
I’m hoping that someone will help me out on this one as the in-game description confuses me. Some of the accessories mention “+X% Transform Power”.
What is this “transform power” and how does a percentage buffs it? Does it mean damage dealt by my Transformers or something else? Help anyone?
@datguygamer I believe it means that the duration of driving as a vehicle is increased by X percent.
@mighty-red-1, Actually that’s not it. There are some bots with accessories that clearly state “+X% Vehicle Time”. Those are the ones which gives more vehicle mode time if worn. This “Transform Power” is something different, but I’m not sure as to what. Rovio should actually explain these better.
@datguygamer Oh, in that case, my guess is that the transformation process is slightly faster.
@mighty-red-1 Huh, you know what, that actually makes sense. But if it indeed turns out to be true, do we really need an accessory that makes your bots transform faster? Is there an actual benefit to it? What do you think?
@datguygamer I think it could make a difference when it comes to avoiding falling monoliths. We all have those moments when we transform a fraction of a second too late resulting in health loss or even defeat.
Fair enough, I suppose.
Now level 373, anyone know when new land will open?
Jenga mode has changed
Nice video @mighty-red-1, very informative, looking forward to the new transformer.
@wrw01 Thanks, I appreciate that. :)
i’m still waiting for bomb as drift to be in this game
Yes bomb bird is good
Same here!
I there has to be some way to unlock it, perhaps the missions, or perhaps exploding the New pias that is red, no, not that one, the other that does not appear ears,that has the least ripple and more curved, which appears from time to time at the end of the levels, or event that is coming up, but hopefully that has way to unlock it soon,I promised I would win Nemesis Prime for my cousin in the Halloween event, but ended up not playing a lot and not won the event, so I want to win this new Epic Optimus Primeinstead, if you have no way to unlock it in the game and only the telepod’ll be very upset because I live in Brazil in Manaus city and I think here does not sell the same in any store the telepods :(
Now launched an ad that Soundwave’s event starts at 23 hours , Week of Soundwave
I’m not buying accessories. I’ll just wait for the new character to be available.
Won’t let me play. Keeps saying its updating my progress and they need to restart my game but nothing happens.
Me too! Can’t play – ugh!
Same here. iPhone 6 Plus, latest iOS.
Fixed it. Fortunately I had previously logged into Facebook and all of my game data was stored there. Deleted the app and reinstalled. Logged back into FB, all of my game data came back, and the message has gone away.
Well, the problem didn’t completely go away. I have a transformer upgrading and three completed missions. Any time that I tap on any of the missions or the barracks, or play one round of the challenge, the message pops up and won’t go away until the app is deleted. Fingers crossed that the issue goes away when my transformer has finished upgrading in 14 hours.
Anyone know how to fix this crap? Until today, reinstalling helped me for some time, but today, there is no way to be able to play… :/ :/ :/
I have the same problem. Rovio told me they are working on it. In the meantime they told me to turn off cloud update in the game .and it worked for now.
“I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had issues with the game! We’re currently investigating this issue with the cloud save option, but luckily we have a solution to get you back into playing the game. By turning off the cloud load option, your game should be saved straight to your device and you should be able to play the game without any pop-up messages affecting your gameplay. Now you might wonder where you can find this cloud load option? That is pretty easy – once you open the game, please turn on the airplane mode, open up your game’s settings tab and you should see a glowing dot in the bottom of the tab, with a dimmer dot right next to it. Tapping the dimmer tab will change the page to the one where you can find the option to disable cloud loading. This should allow you to play the game without any issues :) Please note, that this solution disables you to synchronize your game with multiple devices, so I recommend you to play the game with one device only, while we sort this out and fix it in the future update.”
Anyone getting the “please wait, we just need to restart. . .” Message? I hate this. Haven’t been able to play for 1/2 day and missing out on tournament play.
Yes, I have the same problem.
I have spotted minor bug in this version. Astrotrain does not make any sound when it lands or takes off.
Good catch. This has actually been around for a little while now.
@birdleader
Reinstalling the game may fix Astrotrain sounds, but there is also more serious issue especially in iOS version. What happened to Game Center? It will no longer restore progress after reinstalling the game.
Just a warning to all iOS users, Facebook is now only option to save progress to the cloud, uninstalling the game will cause progress to be lost forever.
Latest update has syncing issues with Game Center, according to Rovio. I have to be patient until the next update is released.
Has anyone been able to play the new challenge?
Probably an old question but will there be anyway to unlock the characters such as Epic Prime and Rodimus after the event has ended? I’m hoping so.
Jason there are random events where Rovio brings back limited-time Transformers up for unlock if you collect enough tokens (and special accessories as well)
I probably have been seeing Epic Optimus and still haven’t bought him yet. Next event will have Nemesis Prime? ‘Cause i haven’t seen bomb as Drift in a while.
Currently on Level 300, when will new land open?
Now level 373, anyone know when new land will open?
When will new land open?
Anyone know when new land will open? I have clouds towards the back of the Island, which usually means land will open. Currently on Level 373.
