Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game soon.
- Cybertron Starscream stun and damage buff
- Bombshell and Perceptor confuse ability could stack with other confuse ability (forcing defences into unexpected behaviour). This will no longer be the case this Thursday.
- Silverbolt and Thundercracker special ability damage over time ticks at a faster cadence than before bringing the damage closer to the amount in the description text.
- After the end of their ability, Slash and Rippersnapper will no longer retarget outpost bots across the map.
- The grenade reach of Hook/Ratchet/Shockwave/Wheeljack now matches the range of their special abilities. This means the bots won’t need to move for the grenade to reach the outer rim of the range circle.
- These fixes/updates will go live with a content release this Thursday
- This fix is already live

After the current storyline a few new characters from a past beloved Transformers series will be making their debut. Any Beast Wars fans will be thrilled to hear that both Rhinox and Tarantulus will be joining the ranks of the Earth Wars soon. Read below for all the details and maybe I'll see you on the battlefield.
Which bots are coming to the Earth Wars next?

Find out which bots are coming to the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
Recruitment Drive
Gather your Alliance members and take part in this weekend's event to win guaranteed prizes:
- Up to 10 Superion or Devastator 3-Star Crystals
- Up to 2,500 4-Star Shards
- Up to 5,000 Premium Shards
- Up to 6,000,000 Energon and Alloy
- Up to 50,000 Spark
- Up to 60 Mk3 Battle Boosters
Event type: Alliance Totaliser
Start Date: 12/07/19 10:00 UTC
End Date: 15/07/19 10:00 UTC
Prestige Allowed: 10
Bonus Experience: Triple XP!
How to Participate?
Totaliser Prizes
*Each contains one of the following combiner bots for your main faction:
Powerglide & Scrapper
Silverbolt & Hook
Alpha Bravo & Bonecrusher
Air Raid & Long Haul
Skydive & Mixmaster
Firefly & Scavenger
If you own all the mentioned bots you will receive instead 1,000 Combiner Spark
New Bots in Progress
At the end of the current saga, two new bots will join the Earth Wars! Let us share the creation process of Rhinox and Tarantulas with you.
Similarly to the Beast Wars characters appearing in Transformers: Earth Wars before him, Rhinox retains his animal form with accentuated robot details. In order to fit him in our lore and ease his transformation, we have decided (with Hasbro’s benediction) to turn it in grey and simplify the texture of its organic fake skin.
With only a few alterations, Tarantulas design in Transformers: Earth Wars remains really close from Beast Wars 10th Anniversary Tarantulas toy.
Under Investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:

Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- The fix for Slash/Rippersnapper chasing around outpost bots has introduced an issue with their ability. They will not keep hitting the targeted building after the first time and if there are buildings next to it they will switch to them.
- We are currently working on a fix
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following fix went live earlier this week
- Prime League victory not counted in leaderboard
- We have reverted them back to being optional, this will fix the results for upcoming Prime League Wars. Meanwhile, ALL Prime League victories are being tracked and will count towards the results of the Special Event (including the wins not reflected in the Leaderboard)

New Bots: Rhinox and Tarantulas
Rhinox & Tarantulas are joining the ranks this weekend!
Let us share their ability as we’ve tweaked them since last week to make them more balanced.
Life Stealing Charge:
Rush into combat imprisoning buildings on your path for 7 seconds. The vines deal damage per second, slows down defences by 70% and heals your nearby allies by a percentage of the defence’s damage value per second.
Life Stealing Charge:
Rush into combat imprisoning buildings on your path for 7 seconds. The web deals damage per second, slows down defences by 70% and heals your nearby allies by a percentage of the defence’s damage value per second.
Check out Skywarp Greer’s latest video to see Tarantulas in action!
As usual, their challenge battle will be available via in-game newsfeed prior to the weekend event.
Collections: Update
Two new teams have been added to the collections the Protectobots and Terrorcons.
The Protectobots are a team of emergency, rescue and law enforcement bots dedicated to the protection of humans and their homes.
The Terrorcons are savage beings, sometimes little more than feral creatures. True to their name, they tend to inspire terror in their enemies.
Check out the collections after the content release this Thursday!
Prime League: Update
With the launch of Prime League, one of the top feedback we had was for some kind of reward for participating alliances due to the league’s difficulty. So we have enabled the following rewards for the Alliance that loses the war.
The competition for most wins has finished on Wednesday 24/07/19 10:00 UTC and the result will be announced in the newsfeed and newsletter!
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game this Thursday with a content release.

Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes/updates are coming to the game this Thursday with a content release.
- Skylynx/Blitzwing regular damage were of the same type warrior’s and the HQ were resistant to it.
- Silverbolt/Thundercracker The damage over time effect from the special ability could be stacked multiple times on a single target.
- This is no longer the case.
- This should not be the case since Skylynx/Blitzwing is not a warrior and this has now been fixed. This means that their melee attack will also deal less damage to walls.
- This is now fixed.
Quintus Prime Core, the Sharkticon would sometimes push it into buildings and wall when summoned from the bot in a confined space.
- In order to mitigate this issue, the Sharkticon are now summoned further away from the bot.

New Power Core: Golden Lagoon
This week, we are introducing a new Power Core that can not only dish it out, but they can definitely take it!
Golden Lagoon is filled with Electrum from the legendary Golden Lagoon, adding a temporary gold coating to your bot that reflects incoming damage.
This will be our second time limited core after the introduction of our XP Cores. Golden Lagoon core lasts 24 hours once activated, however it can be switched between other bots during this time period. It only comes in the Gold version and it only has 1 level so it cannot be levelled up.
A challenge battle will be available prior to this weekend’s event to give you an opportunity to test out some bots coated in the legendary golden armament!
To check out the Golden Lagoon Core in action, check out last week’s stream around 00:50 and Skywarp Greer’s latest video!

Have you ever watched a defensive replay and watched one of your highest level bots provide little to no help in defending your very meticulously crafted base?
Check out this video from player and Youtuber Engineer Hoist for advice on which bots will not pull their weight when it comes to defending one of your base outposts!

Have you ever wanted to put your Combiner on defense? Then it's great news for you!
As we’ve announced during the stream last week, we will be releasing a brand new building: Combiner Outpost in few weeks time, and you will be able to assign your Combiner to defend your base when under attack. It will also allow you to pick one of their abilities to use.
Check out the stream (00:42) as Ioannis and Fabien talk about Combiner Outpost.
And Skywarp Greer's latest video.
Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks!
Bug Fixes / Updates
The following bug fixes are coming to the game.
- Buildings on Prime League sometimes were getting healed for massive amounts
- Ore-13 collection popup doesn’t trigger when you tap on the Ore-13 Harvester building directly and not the Ore-13 icon over it.
- We will push a fix for this in the next game update, for the moment still be careful when you collect the Ore-13 from the harvester.
- We have already pushed a fix concerning Smokescreen/Drag Strip snipe indicator. Please send a report in if you see any other cases of this issue happening.
Bruticus’ Frantic Rage animation will be fixed in the next game update
Currently, Defensor and Abominus bots do not animate in the Combiner Lab when they are not combined (they appear ‘frozen’). They will animate when not combined as expected in the next game update.
Defensor and Abominus transformation sounds in the combiner lab will be fixed in the next game update

There will be no stream this Thursday.

New Bots in Progress
You may already have guessed from Simon Furman’s in-game story but the next two bots to join Transformers: Earth Wars are the long requested Punch & Counterpunch.
Our design for the game was inspired by the Transformers: Generations Power of the Primes "Special Edition" Deluxe Class toy. You can get a sneak peek below:
Punch & Counterpunch are known to be the two sides of the same coin, two personalities in the same iron shell. This double characterisation really shows in the way their head is modeled so we asked our 3D artists to pay special attention to this:
Will this split personality be reflected in their gameplay? You will find out in next week’s newsletter when we will reveal their special ability.
In the meantime, there will be a full showroom reveal in this Thursday Twitch stream.
Lights. Camera. Cast your vote!
We’re putting YOU in the director’s chair! A brand new Transformers: Earth Wars trailer is in the works and we want you to direct part of the action!
The Autobots are going up against a new Decepticon foe of EPIC proportions.
Autobot fans: choose the Autobot you think has the grit to vanquish the mystery Decepticon rival.
Decepticon fans: choose the Autobot you most want to see crushed by your new secret weapon.
Which side will end up victorious?

Tool boxes full of shards galore in this weekend's event! Be sure to check the update for the latest on Combiner base defenses, upcoming chip upgrades, and profiles on fan favorite Punch/Counterpunch! Look us up in the alliances and join team Seibertron in the fight against these Decepticon hordes. With your help we can win the Earth Wars! Share your wins and woes in the forum and as always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!
Coming Soon: Combiner Beacon and Gmetal!
Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!
Combiner Beacon and Gmetal are coming soon to the game!
The Operative
Take part in this weekend's event to win:
- Up to 30 Tool Boxes*
- Up to 3,000 Prime Core Shards
- Up to 30,000 Spark
*Each contains a random Kremzeek Battle Booster, 4-Star, 3-Star or Premium Shards.
Event type: Individual Totaliser
Start Date: 13/09/19 10:00 UTC
End Date: 16/09/19 10:00 UTC
Prestige Allowed: 30
Bonus Experience: Triple XP
How to Participate?
Totaliser Prizes
* Each Tool Box contains one of the following rewards:
Coming Soon: Gmetal
Get ready for a brand new Power Core tier to bring your bots and defenses to the next level!
Gmetal is a new rarity of power cores entirely, more powerful than bronze, silver and even gold! Power Cores of this tier can be obtained by two means:
Gmetal level Cores are currently available for all the cores we have at the moment except time-limited Cores (XP Core & Golden Lagoon Core) with a maximum level of 20.
Gmetal Cores will go live with a content push this Thursday.
New Building: Combiner Beacon
Protect your base with a new defensive building - the Combiner Beacon! Assign a Combiner to defend your base and choose the defensive ability you wish to be used on defense.
The Combiner Beacon is only available at one level and will be unlocked once you reach HQ level 16 in the defense section of the shop.
Steps to use a Combiner on defense:[*]Assign one ability you've unlocked in the Combiner Lab.
[*]Tap the Combiner Beacon building and assign the Combiner you'd like to use on defense.
[*]Charge the Combiner Beacon for 24 hours with 10 Ore-13 (note: you cannot reassign a Combiner while the Combiner Beacon is charged)[*]You can double the duration of the charge by spending more Ore-13
Notes:
Combiner Beacon will be available after a content push this Thursday!
New Bots: Punch & Counterpunch
Two new bots are joining the Earth Wars at the end of the current saga!
Punch walks a tightrope - balancing his own somewhat paranoid persona with that of his hair-trigger alter-ego, Counterpunch.
Though outwardly he seems calm and in control, Punch is a tightly wound ball of insecurities, doubts and fears - certain that any moment he'll be exposed as a double-agent. Punch minutely measures his words, judging when to speak (if at all) and how much to say.
Nevertheless, there's a stoic and grim determination about him to see the job through, no matter what the personal cost to Punch's immortal Spark.
So complete is Punch's masquerade, his alter-ego Counterpunch is as much a Decepticon as the most committed and zealous of Megatron's acolytes. A talented actor with chameleon-like instincts, Counterpunch is every inch the merciless and violent character he purports to be.
The deception is sometimes so complete, he actually deceives himself - believing that Counterpunch is the real him and Punch the faction-flipped creation.
It allows Punch/Counterpunch to indulge his darker instincts with impunity, and though - thus far - he has remained loyal to the Autobots, many have cause to wonder whose cause he truly serves.
Covert Operation: You get undercover for 10 seconds and throw EMP grenades at defences dealing damage over time and disabling them for some seconds.

Get ready for a brand new Power Core tier to bring your bots and defenses to the next level!
Gmetal is a new rarity of power cores entirely, more powerful than bronze, silver and even gold! Power Cores of this tier can be obtained by two means:
- Both Bot Gmetal Chip and Building Gmetal Chip will be available to buy in the shop using Prime Core shards
- There is also a small chance to obtain a random Gmetal Power Core from a duplicate 4-Star bot
Gmetal level Cores are currently available for all the cores we have at the moment except time-limited Cores (XP Core & Golden Lagoon Core) with a maximum level of 20.
Gmetal Cores will go live with a content push this Thursday.

[*]Charge the Combiner Beacon for 24 hours with 10 Ore-13 (note: you cannot reassign a Combiner while the Combiner Beacon is charged)[*]You can double the duration of the charge by spending more Ore-13
Notes:
- The Combiner will automatically appear amongst your other outpost bots and it will not affect the timing of the battle.
- The Combiner stats while on defense will be affected by the Combiner Beacon same as normal Outpost bots are weaker in the outpost. The Combiner will have 30% of his total health but 100% of its damage.
- Ore-13 Harvesting will be boosted from 1.25 per hour to 1.60 per hour.
Combiner Beacon will be available after a content push this Thursday!
New Bots: Punch & Counterpunch

Covert Operation: You get undercover for 10 seconds and throw EMP grenades at defences dealing damage over time and disabling them for some seconds.
Under Investigation
Here is the issue reported that we've been investigating:
- Superion/Devastator are displayed as a grey dot in battle.
- We identified this issue since the latest update. It's a visual issue and it's not likely to affect the gameplay. In most cases, this issue should only happen in the very first battle after the update and they should be visible from 2nd battle. This may get fixed if you visit the combiner lab.
Bug Fixes / Improvements
The following bug fixes/improvements are coming to the game soon.
- 5-Star Silverbolt/Thundercracker: The damage over time effect from the special ability could be stacked multiple times on a single target.
- This is no longer the case.
- G1 Power Cores Graphic issue
- We fixed the background color for the following G1 cores: Hot Spot, Ironhide, Ratchet and Wheeljack’s G1 Core Icon.
- Nexus Prime Core Improvement
- We have increased the % of additional damage your Combiner deals, when you deploy the equipped bot before your Combiner.
- When the bot equipped is in battle, Combiners on defense now receive additional damage.
- The % of protection against raid damage remains the same.

The following bug fixes/improvements went live on 16/09/2019 with a content push.
- Upgrading issue for Gmetal cores
- Some Gmetal cores were unable to fuse at some level.
- To fix this issue, we temporarily changed all the combiner abilities of the Decepticon combiners so that they much the Autobot ones but this issue will not have a functionality change, it will only be a change in the ability’s name, icon and some vfx. If you are Decepticon players and have assigned a Combiner ability on defense already, you might have to reassign in some cases
- We reduced the distance that your attacking bots will chase a defensive combiner so that they will only chase the combiner when he comes near them.

The G.I. Joe franchise is making its debut in Transformers: Earth Wars. Players will get the chance to unlock Joe team vehicle versions of Autobots Hound and Jetfire, and Cobra versions of Decepticons Soundwave and Skywarp. A pair of the new characters are scheduled to be released the week of October 21st.

Unfortunately I ended up in an Alliance where the only way to meet their expectations was to drop money now and then.
And then it reached a point where I was still not doing enough and that's when I left the game.
Money aside, it just became too time consuming.

I’ll admit it I plopped maybe $10 at the beginning it was fun to do I don’t regret it. At my age with all I’ve got going on it’s like the only game I can play regularly. It’s like my electronic Transformers collection on the go 
I’m late to everything so I’ve only been playing a year. It’s not too stale yet and fun to try to save up for 3 stars. I hope this is a cool change for people to keep current players interested and bring back people who got burnt out on it.
My first few teams were full of people who never ever played now I’m just sitting on team Seibertron keeping the alliance posted of fun events and freebies.

I mean what is anyone going to do about this?
If someone wants to bankrupt themselves over a single game their gonna end up doing that one way or another.
Companies will always exist and attempt to get the biggest amount of money possible with the littlest effort and passion possible, as it is every year you need to make more money then the year before or be a failure, you can't make as much money as you were before.
Earth War's and Forged to Fight might end up shutting down some day when they stop being profitable, but afterwards the next game will pop up like it's happened to the previous mobile games.

If it was for a video game who's servers might not actually be eventually shut down and if it was a better game like some of the console TF games then I would argue otherwise.
But since it is for a mobile game that eventually will have it's severs shut down then yeah it kinda is a waste of money.

That's true, but even some of those are digital downloads. It's a bit of a stretch, but remember that really cool Silent Hill demo on (PS4?) that got taken down? Something about Hideo Kojima leaving the project/Konami, so they pulled it. There was a time when PS4s with that demo on it were selling for silly money.
Another example is the amazing (full voice acting by the original cartoons' cast and music remade by the original theme tune musician, etc) remaster of "Duck Tales" by (Konami?). They lost the licence to sell it and it's getting pulled from all digital shops.

I'm surprised that neither Seibertron, not TFW2005 have covered this. I've submitted the original video to both sites, too. This is pretty big news in the world of (mobile) videogames.

The issue with newsing this story is that transformers is only a set dressing. This would and has happened with other games. If this was a games website then yeah, this would be news.

If you're a fan of Transformers: Earth Wars, then you'll likely know that G.I. Joe is being incorporated into the game!
And thanks to our friends at Space Ape games, we have a new video, posted to Seibertron's YouTube channel, that shows off the first efforts of that collaboration, Soundwave as a H.I.S.S. tank and Hound as a G.I. Joe V.A.M.P. complete with transformations back and forth, as well as the totally radical 80s soundtrack. Check it out below, and while you're at it, peruse Seibertron's YouTube channel and see what other awesome Transformers content there is!
"The G.I. Joe franchise is making its debut in Transformers: Earth Wars. Players will get the chance to unlock Joe team vehicle versions of Autobots Hound and Jetfire, and Cobra versions of Decepticons Soundwave and Skywarp. A pair of the new characters ate scheduled to be released the week of October 21st."
And thanks to our friends at Space Ape games, we have a new video, posted to Seibertron's YouTube channel, that shows off the first efforts of that collaboration, Soundwave as a H.I.S.S. tank and Hound as a G.I. Joe V.A.M.P. complete with transformations back and forth, as well as the totally radical 80s soundtrack. Check it out below, and while you're at it, peruse Seibertron's YouTube channel and see what other awesome Transformers content there is!

Rather then see this in a game, I'd like to see this done with the toys. I thought it was pretty awesome in I believe it was Energon, where they had Snow Cat based on the GI Joe Vehicle. At least I think he was called Snow Cat. I don't remember now.
But I think it would be awesome if they did use the Joe Vehicles for transformer alt modes.

You're right about Snow Cat.
Here's the thing though: I'm not so sure we AREN'T getting these toys. Remember, Earth Wars was were we first saw the Dinobot combiner Volcanicus well before the toy even came out in Combiner Wars. Now we get the reveal of Earthrise and next thing you know we are seeing GIJoe Transformers in Earth Wars. Plus, it is the 35th Anniversary...we could have a few surprises coming from Hasbro.

Don't count your chickens before they're hatched as Volcanius may have appeared first the twins they created specially for this game remain unique to it with no toys on the horizon.
