Transformers: Fall of Cybertron (AKA WFC2)

I’m dino-hard now. :eek:

I will be destroying yall when this shit it out:tup: Haven’t played WFC since last year but there were literally less than 100 players on at any given time I kept seeign the same 3 people in every game:sad:

WFC is one of if not the most balanced, deep yet accessible, and fun MP shooters I’ve ever played, I’ll take it over all the military shooters combined with the exception of Gears3. I’m sure there were game breaking glitches like every other online game but I never saw anyone abuse them and random people actually worked as a team sometimes (probably because we kept seeing the same GT’s lol). It’s such a chaotic type of game play what with all the abilities, transforming, and weird level design it’s sad the unique gems like these don’t get ignored by everyone who then go on to complain about too many sequels and not enough new IP around:bluu:

This game better have an online community. The only complaint I have for he MP was the soldier spinning ability was way too good. Also remember how people freaked when it was announced scientist is the only class that could fly?! …look how that turned out he dies in like 2-3 shots and was the hardest class to play as.

I definitely agree, however I am guilty of not getting in on the MP side of things. I was an Escalation whore

HAIL HIM GRIMLOCK!!!

OAN: I wish Tieger will stop calling him a “Space T-Rex”. I think T-Rex is good enough . . . .

Was there ever an SRK clan for WFC? Because I played MP for a good lil bit of time. It did seem pretty balanced. I heard DotM tried to be a better WFC and failed hard.

Is there a official release date for FoC?

Not sure if there was a clan or not.

8/28 Cyberton Falls!

Why do I only now know of this?! Vid was impressive, really hope they can add more depth to Grimlock’s gameplay.

More depth? This isn’t Bayonetta it’s TPS, depth comes from strategy in MP not how many flashy moves you can string together at once.

I wouldn’t expect more than that. His melee attack will be a 3 hit combo, his shoot is grab (release to launch), one of the bumpers for shield, and GDLK Button for his transformation. I agree, it looks a little limited, but Grimlock will be one stage of many, where the developers are catering to shooters. Then you have the “T-Rex” form. To do more, they’d almost create another game (which I wouldn’t mind a Grimlock solo spinoff :cool:).

OAN: Talk about mass shifting, Grimlock gets huge in his Beast Mode. Since they confirmed he is not selectable for MP, you think he may be a kill streak perk?

Fffffffuuuuuuuuuuu-

Its probably all for the best, being the only character who can’t transform at a whim he woulda been a pain to balance methinks. But Im really interested in seeing how they handle the MP for this game, the first ones customization left me feeling a little whelmed, but I hear this time around you’ll be able to actually customize your transformer, like changing the individual parts and shit. That would be awesome if they could pull it off, I mean what kid hasn’t always dreamt of making their own autobot or decepticon?

Plus I hope the actual MP is better this time around, the original was fun, but extra generic. It felt like COD with transforming characters, I guess it makes sense since activision had a hand in the game but still, other than the transformations personally the game didn’t really do enough to warrant playing it for an extended period of time, hopefully they rectify that with the sequel.

WFC borowed elements of Halo, Crisis, and COD but that doesn’t make it a copy of them if anything it takes what made those games MP the least bit enjoyable and elevates them by mixing them with it’s own brand of game play.

Not liking WFC is one thing but to say it’s anything like COD means at least one of the following sentences are fact:

  1. You’re blind
  2. You’re a blind faggot

If anything it plays like UT with it’s frantic pace and whackyness. Although if WFC did play like COD you would be right about it being extra generic.

Not necessarily agreeing with the blind faggot part LOL, but I am with you on this. WFC is one of the most unique shooters I have played, along with it being fairly balanced. I hope for Escalation they do something about the health thing per character. Prime should easily have 5 or 6 bars IMO

Are you guys still playing it? I might get it back because it was definitely fun and seemed pretty “balanced”. But last I heard there were hackers online so the dedicateds get together and set up player matches.

I play every once in a while. I am on PSN BTW. There were a couple of games that diverted my interest after I hit Prime mode. My leader was my thing.

I really am looking forward to the customizations. The color palette for creating your character was terrible. I hope they make it literally as you see fit. People who have seen it say that it rivals some of the Halo games. The parts used also transfer over into vehicle mode

Yea the customization was eh. Especially how you could do the two-tone colors that never seemed to turn out right.

I might get it back later today and play online for a bit. I used the larger class, with the whirlwind ability. Forget the name. Kinda get that shit mixed up with WH 40k Space Marine classes.

Also, I never finished one of the sides of the campaign. I think it was Autobots one.

The soldier’s whirlwind ability was probably the best in the game, it was basically a OHKO and had a pretty wide hitbox. Scout’s cloak was sick too, because being able to be completely invisible none of that kinda visible crap and sneakup on someone with an ATUO SHOTTY was a free easy kill too.

I rocked scientist because it’s so fun to throw out sentry and hide, waiting for someone to get close enough to shoot it and then hit them with shockwave which knocks them away from you but still in range to get shot by sentry, 2 or 3 well placed shots and they’re dead, this setup helped my rape XBL competition. That being said I still felt like it was by far the hardest class to play, glass cannons usually are, by the time you transform and fly away you’re probably going to get killed:sad:

Still I can’t really complain about scientist having like 1/3 the life of everyone else as long as he has sentry.

How High Moon saved the Dinobots. I warn you, there are some plot details regarding the origin and shockwave in this interview.

Great read.

Didnt realize Hasblow was trying to scrap Dinobots for good…:eek:

Matt Tieger:pray:

I was actually impressed at the read as well. Gaming journalism at its finest. I still don’t think the team works that well in the live action universe, but in all others, it can be a little more stretched. I hope toys for the group are made to combat the COMBATICONS!
