    I rarely buy apps on either device so it doesn't matter to me. This game is offered free on Android and they rely on in app purchases, doesn't seem to be an issue with them.

    I seem to remember having this on my iPod, or did I imagine that? But trust me, you're not missing much at all. It's lame.

    I haven't played this game since it first came out. For some reason, it stopped loading for me after the first few updates. Every time I've tried launching it since then it just hangs "Loading". I gave up on it for a while then tried it again months later. Still no go. It's a shame because I rather liked it and the artwork was fantastic. If anyone else has had luck running it on a Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, then I'd be curious to know what I'm doing wrong.

    I force stopped the app and cleared the cache, just in case - but I'm seeing the same thing - no event.

    I'm assuming that they just haven't started it yet for some reason?

    The 'Episode' will not be live till 8pm EST, 7pm CST, 6pm MST or 5pm PST.
    Although they have 'hinted' that they will try to launch early if they can.
    Take it with a grain, or handful, of salt.

    If your having trouble with the game.

    1. Uninstall it completely.
    2. Grab a file manager that can see hidden files, i.e. files with a '.' before their name. Such as ES File Explorer, you have to go into options and enable the 'See hidden files' option.
    3. Navigate to your SD Card.
    4. Delete the .ngmoco folder that's there.
    5. If you don't see the .ngmoco folder or any other folder with a . before it then see step 2.
    6. Reinstall the game.

    You 'should' be good to go at this point. Good luck to everyone!

    It's funny, this game lead me to check out a bunch of moba games and sadly this is the worst of the bunch I've tried from an overall gameplay and support perspective.

    Both Marvel: War of Heroes and Blood Brothers are much better in terms of complexity of gameplay and keeping a constant stream of events going with new cards and rewards.

    This seems so much like a poor cousin to those games - the only thing really keeping me involved with it is my love of transformers in general.

    Ugh. In other words, if you want to seriously complete, check every half hour on the off chance it goes live. I noticed the note this morning in the game that they went live for a "test" yesterday for a short period of time and are keeping those rankings. In a game like this where you are measured on a fixed time period and there is a leaderboard for rewards, giving some people a head start seems a bit poor form.

    The reason why developers started off optimizing for iOS....simply put it's easier.

    The amount of devices in Apple eco-system is far more less than every device that has Android on it. HTC, Samsung, Even a 3rd rate company like PANDIGITAL has got a watered down version of Android.

    Hell, how many devices does Samsung have in their current line up??

    It's way to tedious to developed and optimize for android based on all the different hardware/software limitations. That's why typically you will never update an android device conventionally...you most likely end up getting a new device if you want the new FW or just grab a custom Rom. It's that almost limitless functionality is what wins Android users over.

    Although, with Apple you can keep a device through at least 3 major FW updates and still have most apps optimized on your iPod, iPad, iPhone and Mac. Thus, iOS has way better games in terms of quality/performance

    Even though, Android quality/performance has gone up quite a bit with quad core processing..I'm seeing a lot more games with great FPS rates and rendering in games like Dead Trigger, Apps like Project M

    However, as a user of both OS s'.....I can say it is nice to finally see iOS on this end of the stick, but in retrospect, how many times have Apple users had to wait for an app versus Andriod....which is probably why it's so irritating for them...cause they are not used to it.

    Trust me, but as stated above...android is pimped out to every device with a touch screen...just go pick up a cheap 200 dollar tablet or find a used one for less and have the best of both worlds. Because anything you can do on an iOS device you can do on an Android device..but that's not a two way street.
    Apple would never allow many of the apps that Android devices can run. Simply based on the app submission/approval criteria.

    Case and Point...Depending on the app..I may buy it for iOS over andriod because I know it works with all iOS devices...where as I may only buy a certain app for Android...because Aplple won't allow you to use it, or even install it for that matter (and no, Jailbreaking does not solve everything lol)

    Long live AndriOSd!! lol


    Now back to the Event..I'm currently ranked 29th and going for 1st by tonight :)
