Transformers: War For Cybertron

[CF Mitch]

Oh don't worry, I go there all the time (also to Wookiepedia for LSW III, though they have nothing on that yet, and SW: TFU II).

But they have quite some news on TF:WfC now, guess I haven't been there for a while.

Thanks again

Yeah no worries, sounds like they done right with this like BAA.

I'm just hoping you'll be able to attach a name your custom multiplayer Transformers. I already have quite the stable of fan-characters of mine that I wanna inflict upon the rest of the world :skull:

[DarthSion]

Wow certainly pumping stuff out, yet another clip this time talking about the story, like how Optimus and Bee meet, and how Starscream joins the decepticons.

Certainly seems like the game all us Gen X have been waiting for.

[DarthSion]

Yep me again, this time a bit more info on the game play.

Thanks for the links Darthsion, I wasn't even aware this game was coming out. The trailer looks awesome. If they did a whole movie like that, I'd be passing out from bliss, especially a story based on Cybertron (seriously, do we have to throw humans into the mix every bloomin' time??).

[DarthSion]

Your welcome, yeah it certainly looks great, definitely one for those of us who grew up on G1, looks like they really have done a great job of this, I hope it does well because you would have to imagine they would do a second game.

Not always, beast wars didn't have humans, well the early primates, and beast machines didn't have that either, but yeah always seem to have humans, and yes its too damn bad they didn't give movie rights to talented writers and producer/director.

I am kind of disappointed, I was hoping it would show how it started how megatron split from optimus but none the less it should be an interesting story as the whole war on cybertron is relatively unexplored.

E3 trailer and it looks awesome, not sure about megatrons voice.

Video review is up on ign, looks awesome, and it looks like the pulled some strings, this game is officially canon.

I'm sure we all would love a movie that looks similar to that of war for Cybertron, but the cost would have been horrendous.

Anyways, i read a while back that the game makers were able to make this based on feed back from the first couple games. So the last games downfalls, are going to be this games success so to speak.

[DarthSion]

This game rocks, if your a g1 fan you wont be disappointed, the transformation from robot to vehicle is really quick and doesnt slow you down at all.

I love how your not stuck with a certain weapon type, and the best part, you can rip apart a gun torrent and use it as a weapon while you move, GOD DAMN AWESOME.

I am disappointed in the lack of 360 controller support for the pc version, while you can play with it, you cant configure it, but thankfully its rather quick to pick up.

The first decepticon mission you can use megatron, barricade or brawl, the second you get starscream, thundercracker, and skywarp.

its really quick, but then i have a decent dual core, smooth playing, i love the mace megatron gets, and using those type of weapons.

This is finely the game all us g1 fans have been waiting 20 odd years for, for now all i can say is it rocks, but if we could swear i would say another word.

Not a big fan of megatrons voice, but really dig soundwaves voice, and its interesting to see how starscream joins the decepticons.

Defiantly worth getting.

Wow man, this game really is awesome!

I'm at Chapter VIII already, heading into The Core with the Autobots.

I loved playing as the Decepticons too, their arrogance and the way Megatron treats the other Decepticons is hilarious

Can't wait too see how the story ends (besides the obvious ), though it probably won't take that long anymore

Regards,

The most epic part of the Campaign had to be the Omega Supreme Decepticon levels. Driving around the city with Omega Supreme popping up suddenly trying to kill you.

I'm currently rocking the multiplayer as a Leader. If anyone wants to play my PSN is AsianBatman7. I don't have a mic, but from my experience the mics don't work very well in this game anyway. Still a great game

[DarthSion]

If your going to give out your psn or for that matter any id info, at least say what server you use, EU or US or JP.

If anyone wants to play me I'm royalknight1336 on XboxLive

Still doing campaign,can't wait to fight trypticon! I'm currently on the level where you are in his alternate mode.

My bad, I'm US.

Does anyone have any good tips for Escalation? I've tried a lot of different things but always seem to go down around level 7 or 8.

EDIT: VBBN, you don't want to fight Trypticon. Compared to the awesome Omega Supreme battle, Trypticon is annoying at best with an unsatisfying ending.

Here is hoping no one was dumb enough to pay the $100s for the pre-order exclusive skins, on the 27.7.10 there will be a DLC out, 4 new multiplayer maps, as well as Scattershot and Onslaught, as well as Shockwave, Jazz, and Demolishor.

Says its for PS3 and 360, no word on pc.

Pity though, the game was great but they should never have had MP in the game, the normal game was too short, im hoping they will learn their lesson in war for cybertron 2.
