No, he was on the Ark but got woken up early to go fight Shockwave in the Savage Land!

He's had eons and eons and millenia upon millenia to undergo enough changes to his character to become the character he is in the Prime cartoon. Don't forget, there's SO MUCH time that occurs between the two eras.Dr. Heavy B wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Aside from the Dark Energon variations and difffering body designs, like what?Dr. Heavy B wrote:Metal.

The dark energon and the body issues are rather strange. Breakdown being the most obvious
Too late. It's already official.YoungPrime wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Just after Exiles is released do we hear of this. Now that's perfect timing.
This game better have as similar (if not more similar) a story to Exiles as Exodus and WFC had.
Looks like Optimus (and maybe Bumblebee) gets a new body.
And is that supposed to be Grimlock? Looks like he got a new body too (compared his old body). I wonder if he'll keep this same exact look for when/if he shows up in Transformers: Prime (since we were told that the Dinbots were coming in season 2).
Though, if this game includes Cybertron-based battels, hopefully they're only at the beginning of the game and then shift to the other colony worlds, since the 'Bots and 'Cons left Cybertron at the end of the previous story.
Exodus was a contradicting, poorly edited mess. TF:Prime is disappointing as well.
So keep WFC2 as far away as possible from both please!
Aside from differing body designs and Dark Energon variances, how so?kup1986 wrote:This is an awesome announcement...However..
I am afraid of what Hasbro may push on this. I hated the whole stupid and nonsensical marketing forced idea that WFC was in the TF: Prime continuity. The game did not reflect any of that at all and in many way it contradicted it.
They had planned to two to be together from the start, since the first thing they ever did was jot down the entire continuity within the 354-page "Binder of Revelation".kup1986 wrote:It was clear that the idea of 'tying up' WFC with TF Prime was something that Hasbro did well after the game was produced so it was too late to retroactively push that concept into the game...Unfortunately that's not the case here as that idea now predates the sequel.

The idea of WFC having been originally a G1 game is a myth.kup1986 wrote:If this game becomes 'TF Prime' it will kill much of my enjoyment of it and chances are I may not get it as if you remove the 'G1' from the first game, it looses a lot of appeal as the graphics and gameplay were ok but nothing that really stood out.
He was NOT created after they landed on Earth. 1) Grimlock was the leader of the Lightning Strike Coalition on Cybertron during the pre-Earth war, and 2) THIS IS NOT G1.Bouncy X wrote:*adjusts nerd glasses and speaks funny*

GRIMLOCK fought his way through the gladiatorial pits underneath Kaon to become one of the greatest warriors on CYBERTRON. Having joined the AUTOBOTS early on during the Great War, GRIMLOCK made it clear he never trusted OPTIMUS PRIME to properly lead the AUTOBOTS. Due to his shock and awe approach to combat, GRIMLOCK is not regarded as a great military leader. However, he has fought and survived through enough battles to earn top ranking position among the AUTOBOTS. Having struck out on his own, GRIMLOCK eventually found himself leader of the DINOBOTS, a special operations strike force unit that can power through most barricades and DECEPTICON strongholds. During a battle with the DECEPTICON SCORPONOK, GRIMLOCK’s vocal processors were damaged, leading to his awkward and distinct way of speaking. If GRIMLOCK has a weakness, it is his larger than Prime ego and his lack of patience.

GRIMLOCK rose to lead a group known for their shock and awe style of military tactics, these soldiers were known as the Lightning Strike Coalition Force. Captured by SHOCKWAVE they were eventually reformatted into the team known as the DINOBOTS. During a fierce battle, GRIMLOCK’s vocal processors were damage leading to his awkward and distinct way of speaking.
Simple. It's not G1.SKYWARPED_128 wrote:As for Grimlock's pre-earth existence, I'll keep an open mind and see how the game explains it.

THANK YOU
WHY DO PEOPLE CONSISTENTLY FORGET ABOUT THIS
THAT IS ALL.
also I fail to see the contradictions. there's millions of years between WFC and prime, different alt modes and personality =/= CONTRADICTIONSSSSSSSS. Things change, especially with the long timeline and, well, the war. I don't see how making this be in the aligned/prime continuity will ruin this forever, when it was meant to be in this in the first place. If anything, it'd be to suddenly make this OUT of this continuity.
Yep. Maybe (hopefully) this will deal with the Ark launch and will shift the conflict over to the other colony worlds.goldwreck wrote:weren't they leaving Cybertron on the ARK at the end of WFC? Either way, i hope the game is longer than the past two High Moon ventures.

You kiddin'? It's widely regarded as the greatest Transformers video game of them all, trumping all of the ones to come before it (when the Armada PS2 game was previously regarded as the best).Megatronsdemise666 wrote:im kinda surprised that wfc got a sequel

I still have more fun playing the Armada game. How awesome would have been to have that for PS3.

uhm saying wfc the greatest transformers game isnt saying alot
its still over shadowed by COD and battlefield games and wfc is really small compared to them

COD is easily the most overrated game series nowadays. And Battlefield isn't much different either. (I'm not just saying this to defend the WFC game, because there are many games out there that are better than those two games.) My point is first person shooters are the most overrated game genre nowadays. No wonder parents complain that their kids play em. (though to be fair its the parents fault for letting then play them.)

but they clearly said when the first game came out it was official cannon to the original tv show's universe. which would make sense because its the one time frame most people know, whether they are a fan or not.
but either way, whenever prequel or sequel stuff is made to an existing mythology there's always inconsistencies and/or contradictions so i'm sure they'll have their own story to explain it.
They did not. They NEVER said that. You must have been misinformed.Bouncy X wrote:regarding Grimlock, someone said this is not G1?

This game defies SO much of the G1 cartoon that it CANNOT fit with it at all.gavinfuzzy wrote:WFC seems like pre-G1 when they were on Cybertron. If you read exodus its kinda like the combined cybetronian flashbacks over each episode from G1
Like the episode where the airalbots went back in time to meet Orion Pax
