Not long after the latest Transformers: Universe update, Jagex have published a press released confirming the arrival of two canonical characters into their game as signature bots: Autobot Wheeljack and Decepticon Knock Out! The two are tweaked designs of the Transformers: Prime incarnations, and can be seen in the mirrored images below. Check out the press release too.

9th September 2014: Jagex has confirmed today that both Wheeljack and Knock Out, known to fans worldwide as characters from the Transformers TV series, will appear as playable warriors within TRANSFORMERS UNIVERSE.

Premature news of their inclusion reached media overnight. While Jagex is willing to confirm their plans to include these, and many other, signature bots, further details of their weapons, equipment, and special attacks will not be forthcoming at this time.

Mark Gerhard, Jagex CEO, said of the unscheduled reveal, “It’s regrettable that such recognisable faces from Transformers lore should prematurely appear in the public domain without the rightful fanfare they deserve. On a positive note we’re delighted that they’re already resonating strongly with both our existing players and the wider Transformers fan-base. It’s immensely encouraging to see this level of interest, especially as we look at our existing road map and the plans we have for the inclusion of many other signature favourites within the game later this year.”

Further details about both Wheeljack and Knock Out will be scheduled for release soon, as will additional information about Chromia and Flamewar – other lore-based warriors who were mentioned in the latest community update of 5 th September: https://www.transformersuniverse.com/en ... rse-050914

Anyone brave enough to experience killer team combat in TRANFORMERS UNIVERSE can play now by downloading the Windows or Mac thin client at http://www.transformersuniverse.com.

how awesome would it be to have a generations knockout?

So... If this takes place after the show... Why is Knock-Out a Decepticon again? Didn't he change sides?

For that matter, Optimus and Megatron are supposed to be involved. If this is after the Prime cartoon, shouldn't Megatron be a pacifist and Prime be dead? And shouldn't the Predacons factor in somehow?

The hell have you guys been?

It's not part of Prime anymore its now part of the Genarations continuity (not to be confused with the toyline)

I have spoken to one of the Jagex staff on the TFU fourms so i do know this for a fact.

If it was part of Prime the only way it would make sense is if this was a prequel to Prime and after the game events the only Bots and Cons still alive would be the cast of Prime, the upcoming Rid and whoever shows up again in the future.

I already explained (to you, in fact) why TFU wouldn't work as a prequel to Prime.

Also, while I'm relieved it's been taken out of the Aligned continuity, you should support your claim as not everyone here follows the TFU forums. If you could link us to this statement or conversation, that would help.

Never saw the quote

thread is also deleted due to some people leaking warriors (including myself as i found the trick that got us the images of Swagger, Cameo, Outsider, Contagion and Firebreaker early i also have pics of Bombast, Pitstop and Rollcage.)

But you can make a thread on there and ask yourself the staff there are on a lot and are very nice which is why i prefer those forums then Tfw2005 and also this site (which is second on my fave forums list)

Okay played it a few times.
Thoughts:

Core gameplay is good, shooting/walking/transforming/driving.
The base area is great, with Optimus' hologram talking to the troops, really got the feel
that I was part of the Transformers war

Models look great, good animation.
Can't wait to unlock that Arcee like character.

Missions are to easy and small, if there are like 10 players in the map you have to race
to get in a few hits at all.
You practically don't level unless you play for like a fulltime week (40 hours).
And you don't earn enough points to buy anything.

There are some missions that take up to 10 minutes to complete and the enemies can tear you apart if you're not with the group. Most of them are just supposed to be "minigames," however.

Jagex sent us a promotional email to inform everyone of the upcoming Twitch event, which will take place tomorrow, Monday September 22nd at 1:00 PM EST.

You can see all of the pertinent info and links in the quote below:

We'll be previewing two brand new warriors for the first time on Monday 22nd September at 6pm BST / 7pm CEST / 10am PST.

Autobot Outsider - Outsider beams in and out of battle in the blink of an eye! This warrior utilizes unique teleport abilities to dodge bullets with his tactical ingenuity. Don't let his 60's style fool you, this Autobot isn't as peaceful as he looks.

Decepticon Pandemic - Pandemic has a fighting style that is infectious! Taking pleasure in poisoning anyone not blessed with his own sharp style, this snake like Decepticon sinks his fangs into his enemies.

Jagex has fully revealed the two newest additions to the Transformers Universe MMO game. Up first is Outsider who is an Autobot and has a very retro alt mode and then we got the infectiously named Pandemic on the Decepticon side.

The first warrior on the scene is Autobot Outsider. Beaming in and out of battle in the blink of an eye, Outsider utilizes unique teleport abilities to dodge bullets with his tactical ingenuity. Don’t let his 60’s style fool you, this Autobot isn’t as peaceful as he looks.

The second warrior to slither in is Decepticon Pandemic. This warrior has a fighting style that is infectious! Taking pleasure in poisoning anyone not blessed with his own sharp style, this snake like Decepticon sinks his fangs into his enemies.

They have also uploaded a very lengthy gameplay video featuring both Outsider and Pandemic. The video has been embedded for you.

There really need to be more wide release van Transformers. I used Towline to make Reflector once (news van = spy), and I really wish he'd been more substantial.

Need a little more help decided who you want to side with in Transformers: Universe? Jagex has released two videos with Optimus Prime in an Autobot Introduction video explaining the urgency in stopping the Decepticons and Megatron in a Decepticon Introduction video laying out his plans for the Autobot's destruction. You can join the war at Transformers: Universe.

Pretty neat. These videos really, really make Transformers Universe seem like a prelude to TF: Prime (even though that's not entirely the case, I believe).

Not when there's plenty of official media that points to the contrary.

Official canon states that they did not go straight to Earth when they went into that portal. Their first stop after exiting the portal was Velocitron. Then Junkion. Then Solus Prime's tomb. Then back to Junkion. Then Aquatron. Then who knows where else they went before reaching Earth.

Even the following official FOC timelines state they went on a journey, and that they "eventually", not "immediately", reach Earth:

Something a little different from Transformers: Universe, the MOBA game by Jagex - an interview with the ears behind the music! Check out below some extracts from this interview with James Hannigan, who also scored the videogames for Lord Of The Rings, Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and Command And Conquer among others, on Examiner.com.

Let’s first talk about your recent work on the new “Transformers Universe” game. What inspired you to get involved with the project? What has impressed you most about working on this game?

JH: I enjoyed Transformers as a child and I’m just one of those people who finds it difficult not to get excited by large, warring robots. I particularly like how they’re partially organic as well and have such distinctive personalities. Basically, I’m a sucker for the mythic theme of ‘good vs. evil’; not to mention being a sci-fi and fantasy buff in general.

[...]

Did you also take some inspiration from the music that composers such as Steve Jablonsky and Brian Tyler wrote for the films and animated television series that would help make your score fit in the Transformers Universe musically?

JH: Not specifically, although I love the work of those composers. I was merely trying to, on one level, create music that fit into the wider world of Transformers (which is already very varied across film and television over decades now) but with a new dimension as well. Some of the music of Transformers Universe is pretty harsh, grinding and mechanical, yet at other times it can be quite minimal and ethereal. The team at Jagex have also been working on music, and their output is also varied, a reflection perhaps of the fact that the Transformers themselves have wildly different personalities.

[...]

What were the recording sessions like?

JH: Very nice and we recorded the Philharmonia at Abbey Road Studios in London for some of the music. It is always a humbling and breathtaking experience to have your music performed by a full orchestra and the level of musicianship among players in London is truly outstanding.

Will a soundtrack album be released?

JH: Very possibly, but I have no details.

Overall I don't like them. I'm not a fan of the super lean designs. Prime looks way too top heavy. Megs, on the other hand, looks good. Don't care for the head but the body looks great. Better than prime megs

It's like Prime, Animated, and Bayverse all came together and made a baby... A surprisingly good looking baby. I'm actually digging their take on Bumblebee, looks are better than his Prime counterpart even if it's just a few cosmetic changes.

LOL thats what i thought at first seeing him

Although i feel he should have more guns on him or just a tripled barreled minigun and maybe add a bullet cigar.

Yeah i like Hound except for the fat part but i can forgive that because he is a bad ass character.

Edit: Also reminds me of Master Chief especially with the orange visor thing above his eyes.
