Robot Modes In HMW

Postby god_convoy_2005 » Thu Aug 16, 2007 10:59 am

:o
They have started implementing robot modes in HMW. Right now they are only protoforms, but I say soon we will have actual robot modes.

He's talking about actual robot mode images, like these:

There's now a section underneath your character's Tech Specs called "Robot Mode". Nothing's selectable just yet, all that's there is "Protoform Robot Mode" for the time being.

This keeps getting more and more interesting...so, I gotta wonder:

a) Will this just be a 'gimmick' initially, where the robot mode is just for visual fun?
b) ...or will this give us DIFFERENT tactics and thus allowing for some very interesting and creative combo's of alt mode and robot mode.

Personally I wouldn't mind seeing bot images get tied to something down the line, though precisely what yet, I don't know.
