Could be wrong here, or maybe you got a lucky glitch, but I think you might be seeing the Sideswipe chasis in multiplayer.

I've been using Jazz in multiplayer too, since I purchased WfC from Best Buy. As long as you have the character unlocked, you can use their character model in any multiplayer mode.

I have a PS3 and both Shockwave and Demolisher. Jazz would be cool I guess seeming how I already have three scout bodies to color and stuff. But this better come out for PS3. I need more than just one con leader and bot tank.

Well, the big stripe down the middle of the car, and the break dance like transformation makes me think it's jazz like.

360 has already had a patch.

PS3 doesn't. Kind of looking bad so far...

It doesnt shock me but i'm glad they finally did it. I'm just hoping for more classic characters as DLC in the future like Prowl, Wheeljack, Mirage, & Hound. Hell even later G1 characters like Hotrod, Kup, UM, and Springer since Arcee was included. Maybe even a female pack with ElitaOne, Chromia, Firestar & Moonracer. And of course a "dinobot" pack.

I doubt they would introduce major characters like the Dinobots as DLC, as awesome as that would be. And they said they don't think they could do the Dinobots justice.

That's Sideswipe. He puts his hand to the ground and does a little spin in the air when he transforms from car to 'bot. I wasn't sure who the body belonged to at first, but yeah, it's Sideswipe.

This is what Jazz looks like.

Activision needs to make a color DLC pack or patch for multiplayer. The only part of the game I was truly disappointed in was the limited color choices. I don't see why colors are exclusive to factions. Other than that I'm stoked for Map and Character Packs for DLC. The more the better since some of the classes are lacking. I'll be very happy if Onslaught's a leader.

My dream list of Character skins would be Ultra Magnus (Leader), Dead End (scout), Mirage (Scout obviously), Motormaster (Leader), Pre-tape Ratbat (Scientist) , Razorclaw (Leader), Blaster (Leader), Skydive (Scientist), Leozack (Scientist), Hot Rod (Scout), Rodimus Prime (Leader), Wheeljack (Scout), Hardhead (Soldier).

The Autobots need more Tank skins, but Hell if I can think of any other than Warpath, Hardhead, and that Micromaster tank.

I agree with you on that. Hell, just adding white to the Autobots options would be enough for me. My main Autobot Scout is Arcee and she just doesn't look right without white as her secondary color. Also, naked Ultra Magnus. (I could have sworn one of the early trailers for Multiplayer showed Optimus prime with a white paint job)

On the other hand, color is a way of distinguishing friend and foe. A blue and red bot with red neon lighting is clearly an Autobot, for example. The Scientist's Disguise ability actually takes advantage of this, changing you to the opposing team's colors.

Although the body type and name tag is an even better way of telling friend from foe.

This is apparent since both Swoop and Grimlock are on the DS version. I hope they do utilize the characters from the DS version and make themn downloadable for the PS3 and Xbox, just like Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 did. Come on Grimlock and Ultra Magnus....COME ON!!!!!!!

To be honest it'll be nice to have even numbers of chassis and more colours to pick from. At a guess and from the concept art of the DS version the next bunch of DLC could be characters like Ultra Magnus, Rodimus, Motormaster, Ramjet.

Ideally I'd like Swindle's frame as a Decepticon Scout, Motormaster as another Leader.

I just wish there was another chassis for a Decepticon Scout Female and Autobot Scientist Female..

kind of odd being Arcee one game and then Breakdown the other.

I demand Blaster! Also Huffer. That is all.

That was.. quick. Not complaining, but the game hasn't been out that long. I've heard people cry foul when similar packs for other games were released months after the game (some conspiracy about developers purposely holding off multiple (near) finished parts of the game to sell later, which is of course not anything new; ironically that game has only had, like, one other expansion pack).

Glad we have less of those crazies here!

The reason for that is because, as far as I'm concerned, we want High Moon to make as much money with this project as they can. That way we get more sequels, DLC, toys, etc. Games like Halo, COD, and Battlefield all come from studios that have more than enough popularity and money to produce a sequel with little or no effort. Hence why most people cry foul when they release DLC this quickly. I just hope to see a date for this round of DLC soon.

They're not crazy, they're right. IGN's reported on it - they're convinced that acting in this dishonest manner is going to end up in a lawsuit, as it involves selling something to people who have technically already bought it.

War for Cybertron's commited this. The download for Jazz was only like, 22 kb. He's already present on the disc.

This is where I have to disagree with you. They aren't right. They belive it is something they own, and you may have bought the disc, but its what they give you that you have bought. If you owned everything thats on the disc with games, you would have things like Hot Coffee that show up and cause more trouble, because you owned that too, because it was on the disc. Also, I have to agree with others on this that High Moon deserves a little bit more money on this, since its not going to be the biggest game of the year, no matter what we want to believe. I know people, my own roommate included, who refuse to buy or play this game, just because it is tranformers, no matter how good the game may be. So, if we can contribute a few extra bucks for a little more variety and playtime, maybe so we don't get bored with some of the maps we have and whatnot, then I say more power to them.

Who cares? As long I get more characters and such. It's only going to be $7.50 to $10 so it's not like it's going to break your wallet. And if it does break your wallet, stop being poor. Earn more money.

I dunno if any of you noticed or not but they have uploaded the DLC pictures onto the tfwiki in the list if you scroll down you can look at the new charactors.

I just hope they release the DLC soon. I've already bought my $10 in MS points, and am kinda sick of the bots already that you can use for the multiplayer. Hopefully there will be a patch in there as well for some more color choices.

Yeah? And is the data for Scattershot, Onslaught and the new maps on there as well?

Fun fact about DLC: They often don't think about it until after the release. Maybe they intended to release it as some kind of sinister cash grab...or maybe they realized what was happening with people trying to trade or even BUY pre-order codes at ridiculous prices, and decided just to let everyone use them, and threw in some unreleased characters and maps as well.

Ideally, the options that Armored Core provides for customising your chars will be patched in. But thats a bit much.

I don't think ie ver played that. I'd just be happy with some extra colors. (And for once to be on a team that actually wins once in a while)

On everything I've read about this, none of these said 360 exclusive. I have high hopes for this to come out for PS3.

Why should it? ROTF DLC was mutual for both, i don't see why WFC would be different. PS3 has their own credit system, so you'll just have to pay for it much like us 360 users.
