bout to blow some bots up online if anyone cares to join.
one question, haven’t been able to watch any vids or play the beta, but is mobility still as good as WFC? Especially Transformation sliding and things like that.
Haha the mobility has been greatly reduced. Vehicles lost barrel rolls and similar tactics (iirc) and double jumps are out. Also the Transformation slide is pretty much gone, and I loved that 
Gay, might not pick the game up then. The mobility being so sweet is what drew me to it.
To be fair, everyone has a dash and a sprint now 
try the demo when you get the chance.
Dash and sprint don’t sound like replacement for what we lost
They’re…they’re workarounds. I’d actually recommend (brace yoself) checking the 360 boards for the game at GFAQS. There’s some really interesting debates on the subject.
Also they COULD still implement changes, they’ve been listening to ALOT of fan feedback.

You like, Sum Transflakes?
thank god they took out killstreaks. this game is definitely more team focused than WfC.
Awesome thanks man. I sent my bug report, suggestions (Dem coneheads, more color options), and questions I had regarding the game and lack of or conflicting information we’ve been getting.
These are already happening, so don’t worry :tup: One of the trailers showed colors that aren’t in the demo on the Color Select screen. There’s still a ton of people asking for em though, so I think High Moon will need to invent new colors to keep the fans happy :looney:
I didn’t see black, white, and silver so I’d like those options.
I regret not asking a few more stuff. There is a lot from the first title not in this one, dunno if that is good or bad in the long run.
Naw it’s a fair assessment. The part I mentioned is like 3 seconds of 1 video. It’s almost on that Easter Egg status.
The things that didn’t make the transition from War to Fall are a HUGE issue on multiple places around the web. I myself don’t have a big problem with the changes…but then I never played the game at a high level. I can totally see why people that were actually proficient at the game would take issue with things like Barrel Roll not being there.
Just realized you can’t even do a decent Thrust or Ramjet with the current color selections
It’s all about variety, more variety= more time spent with the game. From novices to pros this is important. It just feels more bare bones compared to the first. Two abilities instead of four, no alternate weapons options on Vehicles, no vehicle powers, and lack of killstreaks. I don’t really mind the changes right now, but I would enjoy an explanation.
My biggest problem is the title is a week away and I still don’t know how the Horde mode has changed, why certain changes happened in MP, or if the various claims from different sites are true or not. It’s a blackout on their end that’s rather frustrating.
Fuck, now that you mention it, that IS a little disconcerting…
Also, the reasoning for every change has been “balance” 
Don’t worry! I’m sure you can in the full game!
The shit that I heard they didn’t bring back from WfC mp is why I didn’t even bother playing demo and I won’t purchase. Campaign may be loads better, not doubting that, but I don’t want a stripped down MP. I thought that was why people didn’t like the movie games? So why play MP in this one? Just because it’s a Cybertron entry?
I’m good. Not a big enough TF fan to play this over better 3rd person shooters, or even WfC. Unless for campaign. But MP? Hell no.
I thought they stated those changes. Goes up to 15 Stages, configurable difficulties, heavily relies on teamwork. I saw the mode in action with those changes.
However for MP, the excuse is for balance. I agree, there is not much reasoning for it. The main one that I miss is the barrel roll for the Scientist. I have not played the infiltrator class, but doesn’t it have the Nitro feature (not as good as the flip thingy for sure). The Destroyer still has the “RAM”, you have to be at full speed and jump.
Really? Have to try new ram, seems sort of lame though. Infiltrator I haven’t found a boost for, only thing I know is if you go Invis and transform you stay invisible and your engine is quiet.
I haven’t seen anything regarding Horde, if you can find me the article/video you saw I’d love to take a gander at it.
