    Which faction to play? Your main faction. Don't spend time on the second faction added you've got time and fuel cells to waste.

    Autobots or Decepticons? From a story perspective whichever one appeals to you. From an unbalanced game perspective, Autobots.

    Game Imbalance? See below.

    1) Air Strikers - A vital skill. Autobots have 3 (Jetfire, Firefly, Stormclash). Decepticons have 2 (Starscream, Blast Off). If you consider stars it's actually a 9-to-6 bot disparity. Autobots with more air unit. . .sheesh.

    2) Number of players - There are about 4 times more playing autobots versus decepticons. Therefore, Decepticons get their bases raid more often. It's more cutthroat to fill alliances and get merc help.

    3) Combiners - Superion's components are common. Even with six bots it's the easiest to collect combiner and they all drop combiner spark as 1* and 2*'s. Devastator on the other has two hard to get components, Scavenger and Mixmaster. Harder to make and harder to get c-spark to level. Optimus Maximus both have one hard component in Optimus and Bruticus with me guessing that Optimus is slightly rarer.

    4) The fucking HQ - the autobot HQ perfectly hides defenses behind it. Autobot scum.

    5) Ultra Magnus - UM superior, Galvatron inferior.

    6) Soundwave - Blaster inferior, Soundwave inferior. Really? Soundwave = Blaster? Fuck you Spaceape.

    Agreed. I'd definitely be more interested in decepticons if I could buy the bundles and the other thing is they need to give access to the combiners as well eventually. Right now it's more of a novelty getting the 2* ones with the 2* crystal because I have all the autobots except Pipes.

    I just started getting in to this game. About how many of those 9.99 Megatron bundles do you think its going to take to get an actual 3 or 4 star Megatron? I bought one but didn't get anything good.

    No one knows the odds, but if I were a betting man, I would say that the odds of getting a 4* are probably no better than 1/120, which is .008% and probably no worse than 1/180 which is roughly .0056%, I've heard people say they got a 4* on the first crystal, I've heard of people literally spending $200 plus on bundles and get all dupes. That's the thing with this game. Spending doesn't guarantee you anything, so like I tell people when they buy bundles, buy them for characters you need, not want. And when buying them be prepared to buy more if you don't get something the first time, so if you want to just drop a hot $20, be prepared for all dupes. The way the odds are set up, you need multiple bundles with more chances to actually pull your bot, because if I'm right or close to what the actual pulls are, at best case you need 120 crystals, if there are 20 crystals per bundle, be prepared to buy six or more for the character you want. It's simple really.

    Buddy of mine just bought a bundle... two 4*s (including OP) and two 3*s. I told him he had the best haul I've ever heard of.

    Anyone that has a chance at any of the awards have an open spot? I just started getting into the game. Today I've put up 1,175 points so far. Plan on playing all weekend. The one I'm in now only 10 people are participating and I have the high score.

    Is there a way to have Decepticons and Autobots fight together? I find Starscream is stronger than my Autobot flyers. He can take out a mortar by himself, while the Autobots need 2 flyers to take it out

    we have about 20k(which is our normal over a day) and we do war wednesdays, the big problem at the moment is we have 15 people not adding to us on avarage each week, we do a clear out each week of them it use to be 20 but we have found 5 members over the last 3 weeks which has helped alot, i myself add about 6k in points to the whole thing over a weekend

    I would love to have Starscream with Air Raid or even Starscream and Jetfire on the same team.

    Starscream for a 2* is a beast 138 XP, he can take out a mortar by himself. I can't imagine what 3* Starscream would be like. Out of all my flyers, he's my favourite and my strongest
