But every time I do well (or even if I don't which happens just as often), the host seems to be one of the guys on the other team and never has a problem quitting. I'm with everyone else on here and wish they'd add host migration.

I heard a rumor they were working on a patch that would at least prevent you from losing all your XP when a host drops, but I e-mailed the address on High Moon's website (turned out to be dead) and contacted Activision via their support boards. My only response from Activision was that they had no info on this and to check transformersgame.com for updates (site hasn't been updated since release as far as I can tell).

I can tell you today I made a lvl during a match and the host quit before the end. I checked and had not lost the lvl. I notice the Saving to HD before a disconnect message lately.

Yep. Your experience saves if the match ends, or if you get disconnected. It won't save Challenge Bonuses, though, and it won't save anything if you quit.

The entire night tonight I got put in on sided games. Mostly 5 or 6 vs 2 or 3. If I was on the side with 2 or 3 we barely got 25 points, and if I was on the side with 5 or 6 we destroyed the other team with a 300 point lead. Why is it making such one sided teams when there are enough people to make semi even teams? Really annoying.

Nearly got my scout to 25. Well 19 is pretty close.

made 25 with my leader class last night around 7:00.

they were lv 5 when i logged in thurs.

lowest score all day was like 6000.

my top score was 12100 in a game of conquest. dont think i can top that.

really wish they still gave you an xp count per game after 25... makes me feel like i shouldnt be playing once i hit max.

would love to see some DLC of higher level cap.

ive been playing conquest all weakend, and have been levaling up like CRAZY. 300 points for capturing a power node.

How does that work? An increase in experience can't actually hurt you. It's not like player suddenly become more powerful when they realize they can level up twice as fast.

I will be there...there being the double experience weekend, which isn't really a place but a time but I will be there anyway. Maybe this will make up for neglecting the Scout class.

What I mean is that I got the most horrible soul sucking groups known to mankind. I was brutally slaughtered by the other team no matter what I did. In PS, my team NEVER got their butts in the node. They always played distance and we lost pathetically every time.I'm not a very strong PVPer so this kind of thing kinda gets discouraging after a while. If I could have found a decent group it would have been okay, but I didn't. Although I'm sure I lvled up a few people with all the kills they got on me.

Just dont give up try to find a class that works well for you and if you have a crap group quit and rejoin if that doesnt work be a scout cloak and then melee ppl if u combine cloak and pistol you can go 15-0 no problem, just have to do hit and run technique and know where the overshields and health is. happy gaming

Scout with Mark and Cloak, and the Scattergun. Stupid deadly once you get the hang of it, and equip the right skills. But my personal favorites are Leader with Warcry, Moleculon Bomb and the Ion Blaster, and Scientist with Disguise, Shockwave (The skill, not the character) and the EMP Shotgun.

And I know there's people saying "But those skill sets (Particularly the one for Scientist) don't work." And if they're right (And I know from personal experience they aren't) then that means I'm so damn good that those skill sets work for me.

I jumped 5 levels this weekend with my Scientist. Got that class from 18 to 23. I think I'm halfway through 23 too. I got most, if not all, of the skills I want for Scientist unlocked anyway. I just want to max it and then move onto maxing Leader.

Same here Loki. I got my Scientist up to Level 24. I didn't even get to play that much this weekend. Unfortunately I will have to gind it out for final Level 25 now ( I think it's 27 thousand XP or so and if I average my usual 2-4k XP that is about 7-14 games online depending on XP gained )

Funny thing is I have 0 level for Leader and Soldier. My scout is level 5 before I dedicated to Scientist. I tend to work one class and not switch.

Sigh..................

Friday night, didn't have too much time to play.

Saturday night, the system lag was terrible. Almost all actions were performed 2 seconds after I pressed the button. Same thing if I left and came back in.

Sunday night, finally a better night.

Haven't played other classes other than Scientist for a while. Tried to level up scout last night and just found out and felt how fragile scientist was. Or maybe I just don't play scientist well.

that combination on the leader got me my greatest game ever yesterday. by the end of the game, I had racked up a 12 kill streak in 3 minutes. one of my teammates who was hanging around at the time, think he was a soilder, said "dude, that is F*CKIN bananas."

thats right, im F'N bananas.

I'm a bit more balanced. Leader is 18 or 19, Scout is 15ish, and Soldier is 14. Funny enough Scout was my first main. Then I learned how to play Leader and Scientist. A good scientist is his/her team's MVP generally.

Can anyone please tell me why Skywarp and other characters are not in the online multiplayer deathmatch selectable characters? Ive been searching all over the internet and cant find anything.

Everyone you can play as in campaign is available for create-a-character. Skywarp just happens to be physically identical to Starscream and Thundercracker ("Yeah, well at least I'm not ugly!" "Ugly? We look the same!") so those three are covered by the Seeker Chassis.

How do I unlock the seeker chassis?

artofgarduno wrote:How do I unlock the seeker chassis?

You don't, it's available for the Scientist class right away. Go into "create-a-character" in the multiplayer menu, pick one of your scientist class bots, and select "Decepticon Chassis" you can then pick the body and color.

Named characters aren't available in regular multiplayer, they can only be used in Campaign and Escalation. In Multiplayer, you can only use the create-a-character bots.

artofgarduno wrote:How do I unlock the seeker chassis?

The only chassis that can be unlocked are Arcee as a scout for the Autobots, and Slipstream as a Scientist for the Decepticons. Both are reward bonuses for beating a half of campaign's storyline. IE Arcee is unlocked via beating the Autobot Campaign, and Slipstream is unlocked via beating the Decepticon campaign. Slipstream is a Femseeker/Femme Seeker/Female Seeker.

The default chassis are all playable characters from Campaign. There are now five DLC characters for Escalation and Multiplayer. Two Autobots (Jazz and Scattorshot) and three Decepticons (Shockwave, Demolisher, and Onslaught). There's going to be a second set of DLC character packs. Decepticons will be getting a third scout, a third leader, and the Autobots will be getting another tank for sure. Outside of that no one knows what other classes with get DLC characters for Map and Character Pack #2.

Thanks for the info, I already beat the game and have the extra chassis and I purchased the downloadable content too. whens the chassis pack #2 coming out?

No idea other than "not soon enough."
