True. Should have had him driving in like in the '86 movie. That would have been a cool homage.

Hehe He's got a point; I thought Prime's legs were only half the normal length! XD (He should stick to the slow, epic walk we saw in the reveal trailer! )

Still; this trailer was an epic to build on the epic of the epic previous trailer! Can't wait! ^^

(No, nobody can have too much 'epic'! XD)

To be honest, I think they shouldn't have made this trailer as I think it is a waste of time and money. Where as it could've been used to making the game better. Like better cut scenes or go towards multiplayer.

Maybe it's just the way the two are built, but it looks like Metroplex is LARGER than Trypticon.

Looks good, though.

Precisely. Matt Tieger has gone on record saying that Metroplex dwarfs both Trypticon and Omega Supreme.

One part i didn't like was when Swoop gets a back hand from Bruticus and hits so hard it sends him off screen. Devastator smashed him up pretty good in the Movie as well. Poor Swoop

I get the feeling that scene is a nod towards the '84 movie. Other than the addition of Jazz and the fact Grimlock barely seems phased after Bruticus' right cross. After all, not only did Devastator manage to take out Swoop (who has always been depicted as the more "fragile" of the Dinobots), but it was Slag who knocked ol' Dev on his ass, just like he does to Bruticus here.

Nice touch High Moon studies

It's the same Metroplex trailer that was previously, but they reveal the game's cover art at the end of the clip. The cover features Optimus Prime, Grimlock, Bumbleebee, and Metroplex looming the background.

Can I get some type of credit for taking these screenshots? I uploaded them to TFW2005 with the same account name (MV95)

In the scene right before Shockwave flies in Megatron is bashing one last autobot before he and Optimus go at it. That last autobot seems to look an awful lot like Jetfire I think.

I'm going to make the assumption that it was because I noticed that also.

I didnt really read all of the posts sorry if you or someone else already posted that.

OMG Grimlock and Bruticus fighting! If only that was actual gameplay! And Metroplex... one word: GIGANTIC. But enough about campaign, I want multiplayer info! Please, High Moon, make a multiplayer gameplay trailer!

I've been saying this since day one. Multiplayer was great in WFC and FoC will be better. I'm stoked.

The onslaught of Transformers: Fall of Cybertron continues to pour out of E3. We now have additional footage of Metroplex in action by way of G4TV including more of his transformation sequence. Check out he embedded video below.



But wait there's more....PlayStation.Blog hosted a Q&A session with High Moon Studio's Matt Teiger. Click here to have a look, we hit the highlights below.

• More "Big Bots", fans have responded well to Brutics and Metroplex, not all have been discussed
  
• Unlockable G1 Optimus Prime for both single and multiplayer, completely new model, the only truly classic unlockable model that can be confirmed at this time
  
• The story was developed in association with Hasbro and is canon, no association with the films
  
• No immediate plans for release on the Vita
  
• Gameplay is longer than Transformers: WFC
  
• Ultra Magnus in the game? "I can say that Hasbro has confirmed an Ultra Magnus toy. That could be a hint about his role in game."
  
• Online trophies - yes
  
• No current plans for a collectors' edition, though there have been many requests
  
• The song in the new trailer - Cities in Dust by The Everlove

plex in the house! he looks great toy please.

Oh my goodness. I loved thatgameplay. Now it's only a matter of time before they show us how multiplayer is.

Still Waiting for the "Big E3 News" that they posted about on their Facebook Fan page a few weeks Back. Hoping it wasn't just revealing the Look of Metroplex (whom we knew was gonna be in the game months ago)

With how this is going, I wouldn't be surprised if they threw the Minicons in. I know they weren't G1, but the Dinobots weren't made 'till after they got to Earth.

That's what Soundwave's minions are. They're both Minicons and Deployers.

The game looks great and Teiger is the perfect spokesperson and promoter.

toy now!!! need metroplex toy!!! and that matt guy is looking pretty busy.

Doubledealer93 wrote:toy now!!! need metroplex toy!!! and that matt guy is looking pretty busy.

Make him a Maximus class Cyberverse figure. Then make some Cyberverse FOC toys (of the bigger characters than Soundwave's minions) for him to interact with.

no thanks. i'd much rather have a leader sized (or bigger) version... but we all know that'll never happen.

anyways. the best news i've seen so far is that the gameplay is longer than WFC. that's AWESOME.

What a knob! If you're going to interview someone then learn their name first. He seemed a little patronising too.

The fella playing the game earned an achievement. Could the game be all done and dusted? Metroplex is looking really good now though.

TimothyR wrote:...the best news i've seen so far is that the gameplay is longer than WFC.

Is that true?! Hell, I thought WFC dragged on as it was, just running/driving/flying through pressing the odd attack button here and there.

Which is why I say make him a Maximus figure so he can be correctly scaled, as anything lower than a Supreme would do serious injustice to him.

i personally would rather have him done right (leader class or larger) or not done at all. if it were for cyberverse.. i'd have to place jazz, bumblebee, prime, shockwave, megatron, soundwave, and whoever else is coming out in the deluxe scale. plus, hasbro owes us something good and big. the last two large figures they've released were dreadful (3 if you count ultimate bumblebee) there was rotf devastator and "ultimate" prime.

you thought it dragged on? interesting. i thought it was good. i dislike games that i can sit down and beat in one night. did you play it on the easy setting? if so, that may contribute to only attacking "here and there".

i hope the controls are similar. i actually enjoyed the way you transform. . i also liked the way they worked it into rotf. for me it's not really a matter of liking it or not, it's just a matter of getting used to it.

i'm really interested to see how this "teletran" type weapons thing is going to work out.

i'm starting to come around to the fact that each level is meant for a specific character. i really like choosing my own character, but i noticed that i usually pick the scout type characters like breakdown and sideswipe.. but i think the way they have it set up will be good for story telling.

and lastly, i'm excited about playing one campaign that involves both factions. it REALLY sucked in the dotm game (that was probably one of the worst games i've ever played) .. but here, since it's longer, and the subject matter it should be fun, i like going back and forth, it definitely looks like it's going to help the story out. i guess we'll all see soon enough.

Want some more Transformers: Fall of Cybertron footage? Of course you do! IGN has posted yet another gameplay demo from E3 2012. Commentary by game director Matt Tieger, check it out below.

So we see Metroplex shoulderblocking a giant tower halfway down, then finishing it off with a titanic pimpslap

And we see Starscream sneaking up on a guy, kicking him in the ball-bearings from from behind, and shoving a facehugger bomb on his head.

I love this game.

Seriously, I can't decide what game I want to preorder first; this or Halo 4. I could order the Limited Edition of Halo 4 for about $100 (comes with camo-pattern for your Spartan IV and your Assault Rifle, an exclusive in-game emblem, and lots more) or get this for $60 for the awesome G1 Bonus Pack. Tough choices, tough choices...

That Starscream looked amazing. I liked that second sneak attack too. Question though. Why does it seem that Starscream is attacking Dcons? We'll find out when we get the game. I'm stoked

That footage looks SWEET! If only I could afford any of the games and systems....

•The story was developed in association with Hasbro and is cannon, no association with the films

Shouldn't that read, "and is canon"? A "cannon" is a weapon (eg. a Howitzer), where "canon" is an original source (eg. a novel). I really hate to nitpick.

Wolf-Spider

Oh the many choices in Starscream's level,Time to raise some hell!!!

Anyone else notice how many weapons there are in the Teletran-Store?? I cannot WAIT to try out each new weapon.

Until today,I almost totally forgot that Jazz and Cliffjumper are playable characters. I've just been so focused on Grimlock & the Dinobots,Optimus,Metroplex,and Bruticus

Sneaking looks very cool, hopefully you can also sneak attack in Multiplayer.

Starscream's abilities are completely swapped, now he has Dash and Cloak. How are they going to do that? They are both time-loading abilities in WFC, not micro energon cubes.

The new Optimus looks great, I love it when there are fellow bots running around the battlefield.

Seriously hope they make a big fat expensive collector's edition for me to buy.

Courtesy of GameTrailers.com we have even more Transformers: Fall of Cybertron footage. The first clip focuses on Vortex, while the second gives us a look at everyone's favorite space T-Rex, Grimlock. The clips are embedded below.

This game looks way more action packed than the first game, which was loaded with action.

Plus Slag saying "Excuse me" after knocking the door down in top of Kickback.

I do have to admit, the Original Movie reference was Awesome. I loved the first Game, gonna go nuts over this one. Just waiting for them to release a DL Demo to keep us occupied.

Gotta love Slug's "Excuse me."

I like the way Onslaught, Blast Off, and Vortex were voiced. Slag going "excuse me" was a classic homage to the original 80's movie, when the Dinobots interrupted the trial on Quintessa. I seriously like the way this game is looking, but I'm still not sure whether I want to preorder this first or Halo 4...

Watching the Grimlock clip makes me realize that the Insecticon I was thinking was Chop shop in the game was really Sharpshot. Guess all that background noise at the convention drowned out the pronunciation of his name.

Actually its Kickback.

Grimlock and Shockwave call the guy by name in the game. Whoever they were talking to, it wasn't Kickback.

From looks of the character, Sharpshot is the new name for Shrapnel, just as "Hardshell" is for Bombshell.

I know this. All I'm saying that the Insecticon both Shocky and Grimmy were talking to wasn't referred to in-game as Kickback, so must have been Sharpshot, in spite of us seeing Kickback in the same room in this gameplay. Maybe both Kickback nd sharpshot are seen in this level together in different part of this room, or something.

definatly when i saw door drop ontop of that insecticon i was thinking of that scene i be dissapointed if they ddiint have slag walk in to say excuse me right after that event looking forward to see if there is any more movie easter eggs in this gaem

Awesome. I wish the game would be released now.

I was looking at the part of Grimlock's gameplay where Slag (he's Slag to me, even if his official name is "Slug") breaks in. Hard to tell who that Insecticon is, but the head makes me think ILL-Star may be right. The shape of the head is pretty close to Kickback's, even if his face isn't. Just have to play the game to find out.

The Insecticon Slug knocks the door over is Kickback.



The Insecticon I said Shockwave and Grimlock spoke to was probably a different guy in another area of the level.

Maybe all three named-Insecticons serve as bosses in each arena that Grimlock needs to free another Dinobot from. Sharpshot may be Snarl's captor, Slug could be Kickback's, and Harshell could be Sludge's (Swoop seemed to get free on his own, unless we're missing something).

Sabrblade wrote:The Insecticon I said Shockwave and Grimlock spoke to was probably a different guy in another area of the level.

Probably. As you said, it was hard to hear over the Insecticons' screeching, the background music, and Grimlock's Hulk speech.

Sabrblade wrote:(Swoop seemed to get free on his own, unless we're missing something).

Maybe it's to compensate for the fact that Swoop is the one Dinobot (other than maybe Sludge) who gets beat up in some fashion. Or Shockwave is the one holding him.
