Beast Wars Dinobot Available in Transformers: Forged to Fight

Not too fond of the goofy beast head, but otherwise I'm liking this redesign!

All those duplicate bots really gave me a head start when I entered my Galvatron chips for crystals and getting to the next rank. Dinobot is now in my sights, and so is Grimlock on the reward calendar. If I could get Ramjet and Drift, then that means I would have every Transformer that's currently available.

Considering you asked, I still have the app, but don’t really play the game. Apparently Earth Wars is more of my thing. Don’t ask me why (I won’t know the answer!).

Do you get to fight Combiners or even Trypticon ect in this game?

We've received news directly from Kabam and Hasbro about the latest addition to the mobile game Transformers: Forged to Fight, a character that was already present in the game in another iteration, but now joining as a more 'classic' looking version of himself: Decepticon leader, Megatron.

Sporting the Combiner Wars Leader class toy mould, with tank alt-mode, Megatron is apparently classified as a Tactician class and is still part of the Decepticon Faction (though the game doesn't follow them too strictly). Take a look below at the model, and the new information about the playable character!

[quote] Faction: Decepticon

Class: Tactician


Once a renowned gladiator in pre-Civil-War Cybertron, Megatron used his charisma and brutality to fuel the Decepticon uprising. Megatron’s ultimate goal is to rule over all living beings, only his sworn enemies, Optimus Prime and the Autobots stand between him and his goal of supreme authority.[/quote]

I may be wrong, and it’s awesome the game won this, but I’m not exactly sure there is any competitive-ness in forged to fight other than ”pvp”, in which it’s still the exact same thing as the offline options.

can we get a bigger picture of the shot you used for the heading of the article? it looks cool.

Here you go.

Funny that, I just got 4-star G1 Megs and the release of the character just got started! Also one of the first 4-star characters that I ever own! Hope I can get 4 star versions of other characters (basically my F2F dream team is MV1 Optimus, Dinobot, Prowl, Soundwave, ROTF Megatron, and Bludgeon).

Add Bumblebee to your ultimate squad December 21st at 10AM PST!
About Bumblebee:

Faction: Autobot

Class: Scout

Small, eager, and brave, Bumblebee acts as messenger and spy. Due to his small size, he dares to go where others can’t. He idolizes the bigger Autobots, especially Optimus Prime and Prowl while having a special bond with all his human allies.

Health: 1417
Attack: 151

100% Chance to Break the opponent’s Shielding, completely Nullifying all Shields and inflicting Shock, dealing 50~90% Energy Damage over 5 seconds.

Signature Ability – Bee Brave

Bumblebee isn’t the strongest or toughest bot, but while staying close to his enemy, he channels his unparalleled courage.

Bumblebee generates 2~4.0 of Remaining Max Power every second and gains a 10% Melee Bonus while the enemy is within close range.

Special Attacks:

Special 1 – Gold Boot

Bumblebee delivers a spinning windmill kick.

100% chance to increase Critical Damage by 60% for the duration of this Special Attack.

Bumblebee overcharges his pistol to fry his enemy’s systems before knocking them off their feet.

Strong Match-ups:

Rhinox – Bumblebee will tear through Rhinox’s shielding, leaving him prime for Bee’s critical hits.
Soundwave – Bee can Shield Break with both Ranged and Melee his, ensuring even the mighty Soundwave can’t Reflect Ranged attacks for long.

Weak Match-ups:

Bonecrusher – The master of Bleeds will punish Bumblebee with every crit.
Dinobot – Bumblebee is rewarded for dashing at opponent’s and staying near them, but dashing into and hitting Dinobot’s block would be a painful mistake.

Recommended Modules for Bumblebee:

Nightbird’s Mark – With both his two major abilities boosted, Bumblebee will become exponentially more powerful.
EMI Module – Bee will gain the ability to Evade Ranged Attacks, forcing you to stay within Melee Range and in turn allowing him to generate power with his Signature Ability.

He reminds me of his Alternity design.

Classics and Alternity mixed into one is good, now I need to get myself Ramjet along with Bee so I can have every bot in the game!

Should I start playing this again? I never deleted the app.

No

Definitely go for it. I will warn you though that if you really need Energon and completing missions isn't enough, then you'd have to pay for it (it's optional though).

After an initial tip from fellow Seibertronian Carnivius_Prime, we now have full confirmation that the Kabam Studios mobile game Transformers: Forged to Fight will be adding - as of the morning of 4th January 2018 - Maximal leader Optimus Primal to the roster of playable characters!

The full bot intel report can be found below, or here for the official news post on the game's site, along with an image of the character in both gorilla and robot mode. Take a look, and let us know what you think of this take on the classic design.

[quote]BOT INTEL REPORT – OPTIMUS PRIMAL

About Optimus Primal:

Faction: Maximal

3-Star:

Health: 4768
Attack: 376
Max Rating: 1304

4-Star:

Health: 12392
Attack: 975
Max Rating: 3538

Basic Abilities: Crit Armor, Melee Bonus, Bleed

Passive:

Armor Buffs provide 100% Critical Resistance.
Every 6 seconds if Optimus Primal has no Armor Buffs he will generate an Armor Buff, reducing damage from attacks by 2~4%. This ability stops if Optimus Primal is Armor Broken.

When Attacked:

20% chance to gain an Armor Buff, reducing damage from attacks by 2~4% with a maximum of 10 stacks of Armor. This ability requires at least one active Armor Buff and stops if Optimus Primal is Armor Broken.

Blocked Melee Attacks:

Blocked Melee Hits have a 30% chance to grant a Melee Buff, increasing Melee Damage by 10~18% for 6 seconds.

Heavy Attacks:

Converts all Armor Buffs to Melee Buffs, increasing Melee Damage by 10~18% for 6 seconds.

Signature Ability – Isn’t That Just Prime

Optimus Primal hopes for the best, but always prepares for the worst. Damaging Debuffs have shorter durations and recover health when they expire.

Damaging Debuffs expire 8% faster for each Armor Buff on Optimus Primal. Optimus Primal gains 1~5% of his max Health each time a Bleed on him expires.

Special Attacks:

Special 1 – Law of the Jungle

Optimus Primal launches into the air to bring justice to his foes.

If Optimus Primal has received any Bleeds this fight he will inflict Bleed on the opponent that deals 30~38% of Attack over 4 seconds. The strength of the Bleed increases by 20% for each Bleed inflicted on Optimus Prime this fight.

Special 2 – Beast Warrior

The quickest way to peace, is to end the battle quickly.

50% chance each sword hit to inflict Bleed, Dealing 40~60% of Attack as damage over 5 seconds.

Special 3 – Gorilla Warfare

When it comes to dealing with Predacons, sometimes brutal is best.

Optimus Primal’s rage grants him the maximum amount of Armor Buffs.
100% chance to inflict Attack Down, reducing the opponent’s Attack Rating by -20% for 32 seconds.

Synergy Bonuses:

Allies – Mutual – Dinobot, Rhinox

+2~8% Armor Rating

Enemies – Mutual – Waspinator

+2~8% Attack

Beast Purification – Mutual – All Beast Wars Characters

Heavy Attacks of Beast Wars characters grant 4~20% Attack Rating for 5 seconds and Purify Damaging Debuffs as long as there are 2 or more Beast Wars bots on Primal’s team.

Strong Match-ups:

Bonecrusher – Bonecrusher will lose the ability to land Critical Hits and the Bleeds he inflicts will soon become an advantage for Optimus Primal’s first Special Attack.
Ironhide – Ironhide’s greatest strength is his ability to deal out incredible Critical Hits. Optimus Primal will render the Demolition king unable to tear anything apart.

Weak Match-ups:

Starscream – Starscream will tear through Optimus Primal’s Armor and inflict Critical Hits while the Ape’s Armor is Broken.
Megatron – Megatron’s Fused Armor Break will block Optimus Primal’s Crit Armor from activating.

Recommended Modules for Optimus Primal:

Security Module – Increasing Optimus Primal’s Armor will make him more survivable and give him more opportunity to use his high attack rating against the opponent.
E.M.I. Module – Optimus Primal’s biggest disadvantage is his reliance on Melee Attacks. This module will help ensure he can thwart ranged opponents like that pesky Starscream.

Saw this report with the Primal chips, and man am I so excited, especially with how disappointing Bumblebee's limited availability was. Can't wait to get [strike]the boss monkey[/strike] big bot!
