Now to just figure out how we power up rewards members get te demo tomorrow......

[Mindmaster]

How convenient, it's right on my birthday! How did High Moon know it was my birthday?

[Homerjay14522]

Just saw on IGN that someone called their local store and it looks like if you pre-ordered online, a code for the Demo will be emailed to you tomorrow. If you Pre-ordered in store, you need to goto that store and they will print out the code for you. I'm gonna call my store in a little bit to check for myself.

Im a power up reward member, I preordered at gamestop, HOW DO I DEMO????

[Homerjay14522]

Just called my store and verified, All We need to do is go into the Store, provide them with our information, and they will print a code for the demo for us. Easy Peasy.

I'm glad the PS3 gets something this time. I'm still upset about not getting the WFC multiplayer demo.

[NatsumeRyu]

Thanks for checking on that Homerjay14522, now at least I know I'll probably have to run up to a friends house tomorrow to get that code for him. So excited!

[MasterSoundBlaster]

So let me get this straight...If i want to Demo,I got to go to Gamestop,prove that I preordered the game,they will then print off a code for the Demo,and I can get a taste of Fall of Cybertron?

[Homerjay14522]

Im also now hearing that the code will be found on your powerup rewards digital locker. So i suggest everyone check that before taking a trip to gamestop.

[Megatron Wolf]

thank god its a true demo and not just half a level or multiplayer only, pretty much this demo will decide if i pre-order or not.

[starscream2222]

So does anyone know if there will be special body parts, weapons etc. for getting this like Gears 3. Or is this just a demo with no added bonuses? Because Id really hate knowing that there will always be one body part that I'll never be able to get.

[Sodan-1]

Unusual for Activision to release a demo of anything..

[Homerjay14522]

Anyone check their Digital Locker this morning yet? Anyone have their codes? I did see that there is an email in the power up rewards site about the Demo, but not how it can be found.

[Homerjay14522]

Just got my code. It will be in your personal email associated with your Power Up Rewards account. Make sure to check spam folders, that's were mine went.

[Heavy B]

Found the code in my email. Downloading now.

[Homerjay14522]

This game is AWESOME. The last Heads rock. First sign game is going to be good.....download took 45 mins on a 10mbps connection

So, who else loved Vortex's level? I freaking love it! There are few things more satisfying than jamming it until you're right up in somebody's face, switching to robot mode, and killing then in the most amusing way at hand (see: melee or overkill explosives)

Played the demo last night and out of the two, the vortex level was more enjoyable. The levels were not a full playthrough, more like a teaser level. I like the ability to level up your character/weapons at teletran 1 stations and you actually get points/credits from fallen enemies/crates that can be used at the teletran stations and it appears that the credits are also used to unlock some of the numerous character customization parts for multiplayer. In war for cybertron, the shards collected from dead bodies would recharce your abilites, in fall of cybertron, your abilities recharge automatically. It was also cool to play around with the gun arm switch tecnique to take better advantage of shooting behind cover. This game is going to be an epic win and I can't wait for the 21rst.

The hell's a digital locker!? I'm seeing people playing the demo and I don't know how they got it!

Edit: Nevermind, I got it! I got the code!!! I'm downloading it now. It'll probably take all damn day, but oh well. I'm hoping it will be worth it!

[WANTED WES]

Finally got to play it last night. Bumblebee mission is a ok. I did noticed the AI improvement as I tried to flank a decepticon and he kept finding cover and avoiding my shots. Haven't played Vortex mission yet but looking forward to it based on comments here. Multiplayer is still a blast like the old WFC days. I noticed significant lag last night but might be just the one server I happened to be put into through Quick Match. I've had this game reserved at Gamestop since May so can't wait!

Any game play tips for demo so far?

[coybrafett]

Its nice that the campaign saves your progress as far as leveling up, but for the life of me I can't find the 5th audio log in vortex's level.

I have too much fun zipping around the first section to look for the first three, lol. I haven't found the fifth one either.

Greetings fellow Cybertronians,

The full, legendary Transformers: Fall of Cybertron saga begins on August 21st when the game hits retail stores ... but before that, we want to let you know about our downloadable demo available now on Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PlayStation Network.

This feature-packed demo gives fans the opportunity to sample both single AND multi-player modes in Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. Gamers can experience the explosive first mission as Bumblebee desperately battles to save the Autobot starship under heavy attack from Megatron and the Decepticons. Players will also get to take control of Vortex in a non-linear assault mission, changing from chopper-to-jet-to-robot however they please while engaging in blistering firefights on the ground and in the air. As if that wasn't enough, the Transformers: Fall of Cybertron demo also allows fans to get a taste of the game's robust Transformers character customizer, and take their newly created bots straight into Team Deathmatch and Conquest online multiplayer modes.

In order to provide the best experience for gamers at launch, High Moon Studios will be carefully monitoring the multiplayer action for player feedback and balancing data. Fans are invited and strongly encouraged to direct their comments to the team's Twitter account: @FallofCybertron, https://twitter.com/FallofCybertron.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron will hit retail stores here in the U.S. on August 21st. For more information and updates, fans can visit www.facebook.com/TransformersGame and www.TransformersGame.com.
