Level 14 Energon GrimLock – Burns out Twice trying to take out a gold cube. Ditto on Energon buildings. SUM TING WONG~!~

[DawniJeann]

From what I have read, GoldSlam just poops/spits out coins once you activate it, where GoldBrick MULTIPLIES the amount of coins from destroying enemies, blocks, bricks, etc.

[DawniJeann]

Nice recon Coda~!~

[DawniJeann]

1. All Materials see-able in lab (no scrolling needed to make combos)
2. Option to stay in the lab & continue, instead of dumping out the area map
3. “Retry” & “Collect” button are too easy to confuse. Make “Collect” larger or put each button in separate locations. (Have buggered these up more than a few times & said “DOH~!~”, losing 25 – 35 gems)
4. Less “Doobers” for the Anti-Gravity characters. Sometimes, one can not see diddly that is attacking you if this is the (Megatrons) character you are playing with.
5. 2 of the E-I can be STILL be obtained AFTER receiving them. 3 x Pig Iron = 3-Force & 3 Birdium = FireBlast – PLEASE remove & replace with another reward, rather than an E-I we already have.

Have a few more I can’t think of for now…

Of course a fix for the iOS BOOT CRASH & Updating Progress issues would be lovely also <3

[DawniJeann]

1 SR + 1 BP + 1 AC is my fav = 35 Gems, 3 SR or 3 SR more often than not ;-)

(better odds on the ones that have only 2 chances of receiving coins, instead of 3 for getting something you want or need)

[DawniJeann]

No, it didn’t help at all @dawnlucas :-(

[DawniJeann]

It’s very easy to get 5 Mission keys with [1 Level 12 & 2 Level 11] on Medium missions or 3 [Level 10] on easy missions without watching the video. Very close on Hard missions & with Level 10, 11 or 12 characters, watching the video often gets you that 5th key. Work on getting at least 3 characters to those levels in the Mission: Light Bulb, Missile (bomb) & Magnifying Glass types.

Personally, although I have a weird Boot On Crash issue, I am very pleased with the last upgrade:

Not only double coins, but also double pigs now
SUPER EASY (if you read & learn the recipes) to turn excess Silo materials into coins, gems or needed materials. See “High Yield” recipes here: https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forums/topic/list-pics-of-all-energonicons/

The Lab is Super Lucrative. If you are poo-pooing it, you have not read the recipes. My only fear is that this will change in some way later. One can easily turn excess Silo materials into gems so you can use gained gems into upgraded characters (not the instant gem upgrade, but the “finish now” upgrade) This is how I upgrade ALL my TF now once I have the materials for that upgrade. I never could justify doing this until the LAB was added to the game in the last update, where one can easily gamble excess materials into enough gems (without spending real money) to do it.

Honestly, of you are STILL complaining about long upgrade time, materials needed to upgrade, missions being a waste of time (anything other than crash or loading/FB connect issues), you haven’t been paying attention to the shortcuts that many members already figured out for you & have provided for you here.

[DawniJeann]

I received same replay (more or less) as @vrinda-rajkumar from Joonas for my Boot Crash issue that started 3 days after last update.

[DawniJeann]

Oh no. It sounds like you have 2 bugs at same time. (WiFi Continual Crashing & also the Upgrade Finished loop) Be sure to submit a ticket to Rovio & hopefully they can look into it for you ;-)

https://support.rovio.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Be sure you have your “Privacy Settings” to allow the sharing of app data & usage:

Settings>>> Privacy>>> Diagnostics & Usage>>>

Then turn ON “Automatically Send” & also “Share with App Developers” – Hopefully this allows them to see some user crash reports so they can figure out what line of code of causing these issues.

[DawniJeann]

Did not work for me. Hope for new replay later tonight (1 am my time zone = 11 Finland)

@dawnlucas, My game won’t fully load with Wifi on, so I

1. Load the app with WiFi off
2. Minimize app
3. Open “settings” and turn WiFi on for a few seconds/minutes
4. Turn WiFi back off
5. Maximize ABT app (you should see a “welcome back” message from Game Center)

That brief period with the app minimized while WiFi is ON should be saving your game data to either FB, Game Center, Cloud??? (make note of your “Popped Pigs” total on Leaderboard. Have a FB friend confirm that number with you – You won’t see your Popped Pigs total on Leaderboard until you have gone through steps 1 – 5 above)

A couple times this sync’d enough data from FB that I was able to get some of the gems & coin thank you gifts from friends.

If the app times out & ends up reloading instead of maximizing, then repeat steps 1 through 5 again.

When you decide to take a break from the game for EggBots to work nodes, wait for missions to complete or whatever, minimize app, turn WiFi on. Just before you are ready to play again… Turn WiFi back off, then maximize ABT app & continue play.

[DawniJeann]

@dawnlucas, I just turn my WiFi off in “settings” (iOS), then the game loads fine. After playing for a while or waiting for EggBots to do their thing, I minimize the app, go back to “settings” and turn WiFi back on (so it syncs with Game Center while app is minimized). When an hour or 2 has passed, I turn WiFi back off, then open the minimized app & continue playing.

I did check with a few FB friends & my popped pigs total is current on their Leaderboards & correct, so it is indeed saving my progress.

[DawniJeann]

Yes… My game crashes constantly & is unplayable at this time. It only started 2 or 3 days after the last update. It crashes just after Game Center “Welcome Back…” during the time it is connecting with FaceBook to load my friends as buddies & the leaderboard.

For now, the only workaround is to play with WiFi turned off on my device.

[DawniJeann]

Work Around – Turn WiFi OFF on device, then you can play… When done playing, minimize app, then turn WiFi back ON, then maximize app again & progress is saved to Game Center or FB, so nothing is lost.

No video doublers (for piggies or coins) or thanking of friends, but you can play without constant crashing ;-)

List & Pics of All Energonicons

The shorter missions (4 & 7 hours) are easily rewarding with 6 – 12 or more materials

Edit: Of note, Birdium & Pig Iron are not in the listed in the 84 recipes as a reward, so you will need to obtain these via missions. (both seem to appear more in the 1, 4 & 7 hour missions with 1 wild card, while the 12 & 24 hour missions have the greater chance of obtaining 2 or 3 wild card items, like gems, piggies &/or coins)

Depending on what you are short of, use those recipes or those missions

[DawniJeann]

Double Piggies are back in the last iOS update :D (says DOUBLE REWARDS now, rather than Double Coins)

[DawniJeann]

Yessum, it’s nearly an entire GB O.o Honestly, I would rather have wimpier “doobers” (special effects) or maybe a lower resolution option to have a smoother running game that didn’t crash out on an event that had so much “shock & awe” graphic explosions (like when you use PhotoBlast EnergonIcon & in the desert or Pig City & encounter 3 or 4 walking mortar towers that are all blasted to micro-particles in 2 nanoseconds. Maybe even tune down the visual effects on MegaTrons so we can see what we are trying to aim at???

[DawniJeann]

@buriedtreasure A lot of photos were uploaded, which puts that thread on lock-down waiting for a mod to make sure it’s not porn or other spam type content. You can see/get same on FaceBook at until that thread’s content is approved:

I rather like the missions & if you wait to do the longer 12 & 24 hour ones until just before you go to sleep, they are usually ready when you wake up, get home from work, etc. They did shorten the upgrade times (by half) which is pretty nice considering prior to the missions, upgrades were taking 2 full days for a level 10(?). Now the 2 full days is at level 15. If not for the missions, the current level 15 upgrade would easily be a 4 full days of waiting.

The 1, 4 & 7 hour missions seem to yield the most materials & easy enough to shorten those for during the day playing by using piggies to 30, 120 or 210 minutes, while you wait for the EggBots to create new events to play.

There are some nice rewards also in the Dr. Piggy Lab & it’s similar to an “Excess Upgrade Materials Slot Machine”. Feed in 3 materials & you can get additional materials (ones you might be low on or need), coins (1000 – 15,000?), gems (5 – 50) or the new EnergonIcons that replace the default 3 Energon powers the characters previously had. (see Recipes List)

My only complaint is that I wished the Video Doubler still worked on the Piggies & now the materials, in addition to doubling the coins from node events. (many were complaining about having so many pigs & nothing to use them on, so maybe that is why they are no longer doubled) Their only use now is to reduce mission portal completion times.

[DawniJeann]

@jman, new characters (TF’s) seem to be released via the Mission Portals now – Last 2 Squads & last 2 updates. The only use now for piggies is for reducing the Mission Times.

[DawniJeann]

Of note, there are several EnergonIcons that now affect the coins you receive, for even higher coins from the Dome Events:

#9 – GoldBrick ♣ – Multiplies collected coins
#13 – GoldSlam ♣♣♣♣♣ – Forges coins from Energon

[DawniJeann]

Has anyone noticed how much storage this latest update now uses on your devices??? I can’t help but think this might have something to do with some crashing so much. I know many also have music & tons of photos on their devices. I pretty much use my iPad for gaming only & recently decided to remove some games I really don’t enjoy or want anymore. Might be worth having a lookie at your settings on your device to see how close you are to capacity???

iPad

App Size = 122 MB
Storage Used = 931 MB (this is 1/12th of my available storage)

Same Combos (recipes) will have 1 or 2 EnergonIcons. After receiving all EnergonIcons for same combo, you will receive either coins, gems or material (one of the materials used), i.e., using 3 Super Rareiums, you will get coins, gems or 5 Super Rareium. Spending 3 Badness Processors, same coins, gems or 5 Badness Processors.

The higher the level of materials spent, the higher the rewards in gems, coins & the amount of materials.

[DawniJeann]

Some seem totally useless, while others are pretty uber

#39 PhotoBlast 3 stars Badness Processor x 2 & Anger Chip x 1

Someone else in ABTDP (Angry Birds Transformers Daily Players group on FB) got same with 3 Super Rareium

Destroys multi walking mortar towers in a single shot – VERY useful in the harder desert nodes that were previously deemed Skywarp material for me

It seems we do not get duplicates, so if you already have EnergonIcons for a specific recipe (may be several for same combo of materials), then you get either coins, gems or materials.

[DawniJeann]

(In this order, if that matters?)

#31 – EnergyBlast – Badness Processor, DeceptiGear, Pig Iron
#34 – StoneCutter – 3 Badness Processors
#47 – PiggyBlast – 3 Super Rareium

FYI – AngerChip, AutoCog & Birdium = 2000 Coins, 3000 Coins, 15 Gems, 3 AngerChip or 2000 Coins (no EnergonIcon)

2nd Edit: You CAN get repeats of EnergonIcons you already have :-(

[DawniJeann]

I DID have this happened earlier today, right after unlocking Prowl, as you must play the newly unlocked character right away with no buddy assistance for the first time. Not sure if that may have been the same in your situation or not.
