Actually Fartbubble is quite decent once you know how to play her- the trick is to bank her bubbles off of other objects rather than shoot targets directly.

Back working here too

Yes, crashing here too (iPad iOS v12.4.6). I’m not connected to Facebook (I don’t even have an account) but that’s not to say it’s not the Facebook APIs embedded in the app that are causing the problem.

I wonder if it will be like a weekly thing- alternating between eggs and coins starting each Monday…

Working fine here on an iPad Air 2

Okay, so with 2 overpowered bots in the Spark Run I’m completing them in 4-5 segments (not counting the junk segment)

@exientgreg just make the Astrotrain appear at the end of the current segment- where it would usually appear on normal games and the old Spark Run

Just hit 200 Tokens, and the next milestone is 200,000 points. For 250 tokens. On a low value/low appearance target day.

@exientgreg Thanks Greg- just a couple of points:

• Only subtract the coins once the run is over. This way if the game crashes during the run, the player does not lose those coins. Likewise the number of plays (I think it’s currently 2 per day).
• I think the cost per play needs to be reduced by about a factor of 10. Or have some form of…

@ abv You hit the nail on the head there- it isn’t worth wasting gems on crates of pigs and coins.

@grimlockdown I have wondered in the past if R/E are deliberately sabotaging the game to try and shed players. I’m sure that once the licensing fees for using the Transformers IP are higher than the amount of money the game is pulling in, they’ll be pretty quick to pull the plug.

This “update” definitely feels like it’s designed to reward those of us that are in the “God Tier”, i.e. those of us who have been around longest and have accumulated large hoards of resources. I currently have 32 million gold which means I can easily play the Spark Run for about 4-5 months at the top level. Which means I will be able to promote…[Read more]

Did a second run today- 16 segments, 17 with the junk segment.

I noticed since this event began, that’s there been one player per day with the promoted bots, the rest are using the usual. I wonder if R/E are salting the leaderboards so that those who paid for bots get an easy ride for tokens by only competing (and having an competitive edge) against those who did not pay.

The extended run (I’m hitting 10 segments, 11 after the junk segment you have to do once the Astrotrain is called) is a bit like the Watching Paint Dry endurance test. It’ll probably be better once I get the promoted squad in play.

The Astrotrain call needs to be fixed- it should appear at the end of the current segment rather than require you…[Read more]

I was just thinking- maybe it’s a sly nod to “2 Girls, 1 Kup”…

Nope “Krup” definitely fits…

I accidentally promoted Krup which means I’ve been using it for this event. Highlights include:

• Wasting gems to upgrade the damage on pistol and rifle, only to find that Krups weapon does not do any damage, it just moves things around the screen.
• Apropos the above point- it’s impossible to destroy Boss Pig or his missiles- the best you can do…

Well I managed to hit 10,000 tokens with about 2 hours left of the event. I spent 120 gems all together, which is a massive saving of 1880 gems against what I was being offered the bot for in the shop.

I think that the reference to “rioting” is very telling…
