We'll start off with the standard 2,500 energon.

EDIT: A very nice person did battlestars Megatron for me can we put him into the game, if not can i atleast have it?

We'll see what happens

DtreetViper2 wrote:WHAT THE UNICRON MINIONS Great just what my team don't need to go up against those guys. Putting that as nicely as I could. As if X-Prime was not bad enough for them. I mean I lost good soilders to him. I think missions that involved them would be good. As long as it was worth more to fight them, that they are random in missions, Or they are what we fight in the arenas.


Of course that would be a great ideal to bring HMW2 in. For the Autobots teams have Unicron involved in the reset, and for the Cons teams have Primus. Give us more. Give us a reason to fight the other team

a great OS is there anyway anyway at all to make upgrades cost less? Thats from Darkchild. She not happy to be going back to level 0

I might remake their bios, they are a bit lame.

Thats good, but i ment like ones that serve Unicron it's annother fraction you choose it when you choose your aligence

Good thats enough energon to buy an X-ray laser.

Also the "we'll see what happens" answer is good enough for me! what do you people think about the Hearlds of Unicron idea


I must say that my views on this have changed compleatly from hating it, to standing it, to liking it, to cant wait for it, plus i could just get first place after all eveyone will lose everything and that starts the game again

Two questions; Are there any changes to the level up system planned, or is it going to be the same 1-11 levels? I know the levels will be decided by upgrades still, just wondering if there will be more levels. The current system is a bit unfair, especially for the lower levels.

Second question, if we're getting bot images, and there's going to be triple changers and minicons and stuff like that, are there going to be any other customizable features? Stuff that can keep there from being 10,000 clones.

The levels 0-11 were based on available tactics, now that there are three tactics at least per altmode, rising through the lower level should be quicker, and you'll be able to reach higher levels.

Balanced weapons, potentially thousands of bot/altmode combinations, excluding colour choices of course, then there's the minicons you'd earn from taking territories, and eventually multichangers, pretenders and other things should start providing the diverse universe that the TFs are known for.

Well i'm curious at how fast level progress will be. It took ages just to get to LV2 :p

I dont mean to keap harping about my super megatron alt mode, but what are the chances of it geting into the rotor? Also could we add more weapons for all levels? I still think it would be great for you to be able to choose the heralds of unicron fratcion, it would just seal the deal for me and this reset.

and DIE quicker. excess upgrading of tactics will kill you in this version, with an additional tactic you can now accelerate you immolation

Jam TOMORROW! you sound like AS!

Of course I like the ideal of having Unicrons minions to shot at. More enemys the better.

The problem I see with Triplechangers is this 2 different sets of tactics for the 2 Alt-modes. So basically the Triplechanger will have 6 tactics total. Cool if your team is entirally of Triplechangers. Sixchangers would have more tactics. Besides those to groups are rare sixchangers rarer.

Will we see any Transmetal/fuzers Alt-modes.

How about Shuttles for the teams?

At this time, there will be no option for the players to choose a blatant third faction. (Maximals/Predacons don't count as they're just subfactions really)

Naturally we'll have to find a way to deal with such a blatant advantage when we start looking at the option more seriously

There already are plenty of them in the DB, so yes there will be.

How about Shuttles for the teams?

Right now, no. However if the war expands to other planets...

mabye sometime in the future?

EDIT: I can actualy see it if the unicron fraction was relesed and i joined, Cybertron is engaged in a real heavy metal war, autobot and decepticons have joied forces to battle my team of unicron heralds, Giga Addatron (an upgraded vesion of Mega Addatron who has the battlestars megatron form, upgraded by unicron) is standing on a platform which is rising he looks down below and sees the devastation his eyes glow red as he says "welcome to hell" the an autobot in blaster mode is hovering above a platform, he fires two shots the transforms painfuly to bot mode only to collapes, his eyes slowly fade to gray, then a cutting laser slices down the door of a civillian house revealing Genreal Megashock and an army of Expendable drones, advance on a family huddled togather. the last hope of anyone was an exodus organised by Megatron and Prime, but an attack by Giga Addatron had destroyed the ship and killed the fraction leaders also taking the matrix to unicron who my team serves willingly. soon a massive cloud of Dead End minicon's suround cybertron and put up a containment field around the war torn plannet. and Unicron hovers threatingly close to cybertron, wile my team stands on his suface.


okay so mabye not that bad but it would still be cool to have the unicron minnions as a fraction choice

O.K. I like them but what about their tactics and class

One thought on Triplechangers is have the option of which Alt-mode you use in the battle. Have it take more upgrades to level up. (Now everyone don't jump me case on that one) Just trying to keep the war fair. Besides I have 4 Triplechangers and 1 sixchanger, and yes Street's is actually a sixchanger. How else do my X-Cons spy on the Cons? big

Can we get an Optimus Minor Alt-mode.

I always prefered that multichangers had thier tactic costs affected the same way as stat costs, effectively making them uber expensive, and the wider array of tactics they have the more expensive it becomes to fully utilise them.

Hears a tactic, "power draw" they draw power from unicron and there attack does more dammage like this

NOTE: the following situation is baced solely on my knowlage and any referece to transformers or users other than my own are pure conicedence.

Giga Addatron [draw's power from Unicron] and attacks Idiotic with a x ray laser.

Idiotic:50% heath remaining Note this took part at the start of the battle and assuming that Giga Addatron had 10 in the power draw tactic[/b]

Let's not get off track please, this thread is for answering questions about the upcoming v2; not for discussing new ideas.

Since I have already stated that the unicron faction will not be playable at the release, so there's no need to discuss it in this thread. If you wish to make a new thread to further expand on the idea, that's great; but please lets keep this strictly Q&A.

Same thing goes for altmode/botmode requests. each has their own thread, so please go there.

Thanks

okay sorry back on topic i would like to ask about an idea i had, would it be possible to put more than 1 bot in a misssion, i would like to have my robots fight alongside eachother, if not could we have arena battles where you put a certian number of robots in as a group thingy and the annother group of the opposite fraction with the ame ammount of bots as you fights your group what i mean is like this


GALVASON(Me): Hmmmmmmmmm I think i'll put Giga Addatron and genreal Megashock in thia arena at once

(ticks a new box that has somting like "fight as a team" witten above it)

Soon Idiotic and Dumbohead are put in to the arena as a group/team they are selected to fight my team of Giga Addatron and genreal Megashock


How does that sound?

This may have been asked before but I must have missed it.
I was checking out the XP calculator and noticed
tactics for Quintessons.
Will be able to pick Quintessons as a character?
Or are these guys just gonna pop out of nowhere like a swarm of
Insecticons and place a destructive judgment on a certain faction or player?

I was talking about the Transmetals and Fuzers. Since Transmetals have 3 modes, Bot/Beast/Vehicle. Will they have their own tactics and special abilities.

Some Tactics I was thinking of are: bite, smash, thrash, multi-heal, and double hit.

How will the Minicons work? Will they also get some exp? Will they have their own stats? Will we see Minicons as weapons for the bigger Bots?

Is Unicron going to show up in the future?

Will we see differant types of missions? and will the logs ever change? Like have it say Bot picks up Con and throws him/her into a wall.

Bite is in.

minicons are very rudimentary; they are one shot ability boosters. sucks i know, i'd like them to be namable and have their own XP too, aswell as being tradable

no.

noyhing is planned

Will the ranks finally be added in time for v2?

I assume you mean as your faction, in which case, no.

...

Just a question about the Pit: will you be able to use that to challenge your friends? Let's say I want to have one of my characters fight against my friend TheTouch's characters. Could a battle that specific be arranged?

I know that Omega Sentinel was veryinterested in them, but I am uncertain as to how far development has gotten on that front.

I believe that is the case, however I am uncertain on the details.

Sure this has been asked but when is the actual reset going to happen? I know that it has been said that the "upgrades" and changes are going to happen over time, I'm just curious as to where the reset falls into all this.

Since the Battle for Cybertron consists of territories, how many will there be? Will some of them be canon cities and lands from the series and will there be special texts declaring the winners? For example if there was one that involved Crystal City and the outcome with the Constructicons and Omega Supreme.
Also, something I've been wondering as of late is will the Quints be able to conquer and hold territories as well? If the combined forces of the bots and cons lose a certain amount of those special missions, could it actually be possible that we could be conquered?
