I don't really pay attention myself, and I try to write my bios so that they don't fall into the "no weaknesses" category. I don't believe in the "no weakness" ploy some writers, even for the official sources, employ; even Unicron had a weakness.

I've seen Cruellock have a few fights where he just wailed on the enemy brutally. And when he strafes I always imagine he's napalming the place with his dragon breath.

The 2 guys that I chose to be 1st and 2nd in command of my team are 2nd and 1st highest in the rankings. Unfortunately, the 3rd in command lets the leadership down by being near the bottom of the pile. I may have to fire him.

I wish my bots lived up to their bios. At least Grimcharge is a consistant hardass. Too bad my team can't seem to hit anything. Almost every mission log I read, its like they get As for effort, because they try really hard...but they just suck. Even with badass weapons. If only accuracy was a stat.

Well, my team's bio says, that they are patrolling in middle-Europe, and I used to get into a lot of missions with Michael9R's Slovakia defenders.
(And after a few weeks I got into RDD, he joined AWC... what is this if not the sign of an arch enemy?)

If mine lived up to their bios they'd be dead, anyway the setups came first, and then the characters based on those setups, so if he's written to be really good at X it's becuase the setup is heavy on X.

It doesnt help that their dad is easier to kill than a chronically depressed Prime clone.

I blame that on the prozac.
When you are teamed up with a French cassette, how much worse can it get?

He got his ass handed to him by Roller. I bet that was a sad day for the Children of Blitzkrieg.

To stay on subject I've had missions where Nightbird went berserk and killed, crippled and heavily damaged the opposition while not taking a single bit of damage herself. Occult tends to die alot and come back for more. I can't think of any others right now.

Don't be. Your new and it happens. Asking questions is the only way to learn.

Alas, it would seem so, until brain plug-ins like in The Matrix are invented. *sigh*

Sadly, no. The only plug-ins in my house are the Glade kind. Still nice, but not nearly as informative.
