During the Transformers Fall of Cybertron presentation at Hasbro's Media Day presentation we were treated with never seen before in game footage of Bruticus in action. The Transformers facebook page has shared a screenshot of Decepticon war machine in action for the public. Check him out below.

We’ve seen huge excitement for the just announced Fall of Cybertron toys in this fall's Transformers Generations toy line. In response, Activision just sent us this Fall of Cybertron in-game screenshot. We can’t wait to play as Bruticus!

That's an in-game screen shot?
It looks more like a drawing in coloured pencil.

He looks, puffier than he was in the trailer. :oops:

Them's some short stubby legs he's got going there.

Any reason why his left thigh is almost the same color as Brawl and his right thigh is grey?

Small complaint. That level should be epic.

Scratch that. LEGENDARY.

Probably a low-res screenshot. The game is still in development after all.

I'm both excited to play as Bruticus, and sad that he's taking the spotlight from Grimlock.

It certainly looks like a lovely day out for a walk. Fresh air, blue skies, giant rampaging death machines...

lol. why would people think he will look the way he does in the trailer? thats a cinematic trailer. welcome to the reality of the way this game looks.

Now if the toy looked the slightest bit like that, I might consider buying it.

C'mon, Hasbro! The highups at Bandai America are starting to evolve sentience! You guys gotta get it together!

Can't wait for this game. Do we know who the bots in the foreground and background are? Is that an Autobot symbol on the front bot's shoulder?

They're probably just nameless generic enemies.

Still... looks better than the figure.

I am so excited for this game. I can't wait to play Bruticus. Or Grimlock or Jazz. I need more info though. Early gameeplay?

Gaming website Kotaku has updated their Starscream's Brigade focus on FOC Bruticus article with some new screen shots from the game. Screen shots of Onslaught, Vortex, Swindle, and Bruticus mirrored below:

swindle is looking badass right there

Starscream's in a crown? Anyone else thinking he might overthrow megs in the game??

News Credits: 17 · by **cannonfodder4000** » Tue Feb 14, 2012 2:19 am

I might be wrong and correct me if I am, but, excluding comic-original designs and redesigns and stuff, is Vortex here the first Transformer with a Gundam-style skirt?

Everyone else looks pretty similar to how they looked in the trailer, with the exception of Bruticus who's proportions are kinda changed up and puffy, Dreamwave style, just thought it was weird. :-?

if only the toys looked as good

by **Vicalliose** » Tue Feb 14, 2012 3:28 am

Ugh, well the graphics really don't look as great in the daylight, not that graphics are what make a game... Wait, daylight?

News Credits: 1 · by **Sodan-1** » Tue Feb 14, 2012 7:56 am

They all look pretty awesome here. Makes it even more painful that the figures are somewhat lacking. Even Vortex looks pretty badass in the game.

News Credits: 767 · by **Dead Metal** » Tue Feb 14, 2012 10:05 am

Much better than the last one.

I think that honor may belong to Tigerhawk.

Or, if we stay in WfC/FoC, Brawl has some serious skirt things goin' on. Unfortunately, due to current rigging constraints, it's really hard to get them to look/work properly in game though. So it's not as noticeable in game, and more so when you're just staring at a picture of the character. But, it's arguable whether they're even supposed to be interpreted to function that way, since Brawl's toy has them rigged like the game, not like the hip flaps some other TFs have (not a complaint, just an observation).

On the images - I love seeing Swindle out there. He looks great. Onslaught is the only one who doesn't look "fantastic" here to me - he's waaaay too bright (neon, even, hahaha).

And it's cool to see a "full daylight" level in game too, before Cybertron assumedly will lose its atmosphere. IIRC, WfC only had, at most, "twilight" outdoor scenes where the sun would be closer to the horizon, like at the Stellar Galleries (my fav level, in game).
That or just the Sea of Rust or wherever this is is just super reflective and bright (like going out in the snow), which is totally possible.

Either way, I like it.

edit: oh, also worth noting is that during the big month-long campaign GI did back in October or whatever, and in the mag: IIRC, Starscream has a little non-faction escapade going on. As in, like, what he's doing now in TF:Prime.
