1) Bumblebee is mute

2) Megatron looks too chubby...
3) They are only putting 6 characters from each faction on the website. My guess is that they'll be:
Autobots: Optimus, Bumblebee, Jazz, Ironhide, Grimlock, Cliffjumper.
Decepticons: Megatron, Shockwave, Soundwave, Starscream, Bruticus, Kickback.

- I like that it has all of the game trailers archived and in YouTube form.
- Optimus Prime's bio make reference to his Exodus origins.
- Bumblebee's bio mentions that he lost his ability to speak to Megatron. I am both glad and bugged by this, since it causes all sorts of confusion even though it's accurate to TF: Prime.
- There are four more Autobot bios to be revealed.
- Ooooooooh, Megatron's new body looks niiiice. He's gradually coming to better resemble his TF: Prime design.
- His new tank mode even has forward-spread wings not too dissimilar to how his jet wings are spread in Prime.
- Also, he's also got an Exodus-based bio. Tis a shame that WFC itself wasn't as clear on its characters' backstory info.
- Well, well, well, look at what we have here. Shockwave has two actual hands. Eat that, G1 Shocky.

- Eh, why is "Space Bridge" spelled as one word ("Spacebridge")? Typo?

- Four more Decepticon bios coming soon as well.
- Tis a nice image gallery they got there (though, most images are from articles we've seen before). Five more pics to be revealed in due time.
- That's a nice timeline of events the site has there. it's a nice summary of the pre-war, civil war, post-war, and journey events. I chuckle at how they tease at the possibility of the Ark and Nemesis having gone either straight to Earth or to different parts of the galaxy when anyone who's read the books knows which is obviously the true destination (hint: it ain't Earth).

- Iacon, Kaon, Sea of Rust, and Insecticon Hives: four important locations in the game.
Read the novels. Exodus covers the loss of his voice.Wigglez wrote:They better explain about Bumblebees voice. They say his voice got wrecked because by Megatron. In the prequel of the movie, Megatron also did this to that Bumblebee as well. TF: Prime is getting too much llike how the movies were.
Plus, they didn't directly take that from the movies. They took it from the Binder, which itself took it from the movies. There was a middleman in between.

At botcon, for my youtube updates, when I was conversing with folks about FoC, someone mentioned Bumblebee is level one for foc (like dotm?), which i had not heard/seen. And since I KNOW Optimus is level two, that would makes sense - start off with bee, he gets wrecked, optimus helps him out, we switch to optimus.
Good theory. Also very plausible considering how you'll apparently have a smooth transition to switching to other characters. Also, there is a multiplayer section in Game>Features. It says up to 16 players! So that's 8 per team in team based modes. That leads me to assume maps will more than likely be bigger too.

Cliffjumper may not be the largest Autobot around, but he doesn't let that get in the way of picking fights with Decepticons. Fearless and brash, Cliffjumjper's favorite weapons happen to be his fists.
The air commander of the Seekers, Starscream is as ambitious as they come. During the early days of the war, Starscream sold the services of the Seekers to Megatron in order to one day usurp his Decepticon master and take command of Cybertron for himself.

Besides the cuddly part you described Starscream perfectly.

Prior to the war, Jazz was a long time friend to Optimus Prime and now serves as one of his top lieutenants. Jazz is one of the fastest, most nimble Autobots and is also known for keeping his cool no matter how bad the situation might seem.
Soundwave is known for being unquestionably loyal to Megatron. Commanding a an armada of Mini-Con Deployers, Soundave can infiltrate and and acquire enemy intel. Soundwave is often not trusted by other Decepticons out of fear he may also spy on them and report back to Megatron.

Imagine a whole game taking place on Animatron.

Great place to fight the Star Seekers in a three-way battle.orangeitis wrote:I'm hoping we get games where the TFs battle it out and explore several other planets before getting to Earth.
