If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

The challenge fight with him and Starscream is crazy. They are tough enough on their own - together you need eyes in the back of your head. They are both good at dodging or breaking combos.

My thing with Blitzwing is he takes NO stun what so ever. You can stagger him but he's amazingly resilient. I just maxed out some S-Rank Devastator Drills With 2x Attack Lv5. And 2x Crit Lv5. And its 5th slot is Item Pull. When I transfer it over to an SS version, it'll be replaced with Focus Lv.5 and I'm wondering if should stick Finish + on it.

Man I have no idea how the rare drop stuff works, I have Drop Rarity up +50% and +80% up, 130% increased change, and I have a 130% weapon drop rate, I should not be getting so many commons.



Welp, here it is, until I find a rifle with 6 slots that's SS rank.

I think finally (On Prime no less) this game has finally clicked. Helped that I finally learned how to Reversal, since I'd brought all the moves but done the stupid thing of not paying attention to them. I don't think Parry is really necessary in this game, it's... helped? In that occasionally I'll accidentally parry something. Also it took until my Magnus fight with Megatron to end the battle with a Red Hot One Hundred clash. I had NO IDEA what was happening because outside of the final battle with Megatron I'd never had a QTE event.

Nowadays my combat style is a Dodge Reversal Assault Rifle to the noggin. Rush combo anyone with shields every now and then Drill Punch or launch into a string of combos. Mind you, I'm still getting hit, but I was happy as hell with ending the Devastator/Menasor duel fight on Magnus with a SS rank. My Rankings are not consistent, sometimes I'll get Cs, others SS. I tend to average A/S unless there's a lot of hectic crap on screen. I SSed all of the Team up Constructicon battle.

I now have SS Rank Devastator Drills, And I'm building equipment for everyone. Bumblebee plays fun.

I really don't like the top down missions. I have trouble picking targets and seeing incoming attacks, especially when seekers are floating over my head.

The missions where all the Autobots are involved though, yeah that's my poo poo.

The sequel needs to be the classic team up where you can play as both Autobots and Decepticons. Of course first you would have to explain this to the Decepticons by kicking their rear end in a massive battle royale.

Use Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2's narrative structure so you spend like 1/3 to 1/2 of the game beating each other up then the rest of the game teaming up.

Let me drive on the outside of Unicron in space ala a Death Star trench run then I dive into his mouth or eyeball and finish the level in there.

Also if we could get a Beast Wars sequel to this that'd be great...


EDIT: And now that I have a SS Rank Machine Gun, I can give some stat reports

M one with no add-ons does 1,471 damage for each round, with a maximum chamber of 300, with the 2 Attack Lv.5s that comes to 1,765, as well, 2 Headshot Lv.5 Means each Headshot bullet does 40% more damage.

Max Energy Up brings the magazine size to 450

Worth noting? the Rate of fire augment seems to make it fire less, At least according to the bar, it's unclear. Oh well I'll take it off, throw on another Max Energy for 600 shots total

My Freeze Assault Rifle on the other hand, does 7,271 per shot with no augments, and has 30 maximum shots. 60 with 2 Energy level 5s



Done! I SSed megatron right at the end, I'm happy as hell.

Well this is a prequel game to the 'Combiner Wars' so player combiners are definitely a thing. Speaking of which. IF Optimus Maximum is going to use his existing combiners, we'll be seeing Prowl, Ironhide, Sunstreaker and Mirage in the next game.

I'm down, except I have no real love in my heart for the latest Nick series and the Bay movies can go straight to hell, and I think that's where any new game would pull from. I don't know if whoever owns the rights to TMNT would let P* delve into the classic stuff. Then again, here's a great example of them doing just that, so what do I know.

As long as one of the unlockable skins was the 1985 black and white with red accents, I'd be so in.

You are not crazy, there is only auto-lock on, you will find it annoying to charge past an enemy to target a more annoying foe behind them, press the attack button only for your autobot to throw themselves at the enemy across the map because Auto-lock deemed them more of a threat.

Their aggressiveness is amped up meaning their attacks are also 50% faster. I think it's 75% on Prime difficulty.

No I mean physically faster, I swear the Heavies move much quicker than they did on the early difficulties. Also, a fun note, your equipped weapons continue their passive properties. So if you're exclusively Melee (like Grimlock) but you want the longest focus you can, so you can stack 6 FocusTime Lv.5 on your gun, and bam, that's passive now, until you unequip the gun. Which, if you build your Grimlock anything like me (3 Melee, 1 Gun) is impossible.

You have 4 slots, 1 melee, 1 ranged, 2 free. your actively equipped weapons give you any passive benefits, such as FocusTime+ or ItemPull even if you aren't actually going to use that weapon in a fight.

Not sure how different those characters would be in terms of playstyle, but i'm all for more skins like the DLC to make replays more interesting. I guess Mirage would be cool if he could turn invisible.

I'd rather have something crazy different like Blaster/Soundwave with their special move being a random tape buddy. Or some jets so we can fly around. Maybe they would have to limit character selection for certain levels but that's fine with me. They already have the animations and movesets for almost the whole range of G1 characters, with some tweaking. There are plenty of suckers like me out there willing to shell out the money.

Well Ironhide would probably have activated Super Armor, which would be dumb in a Platinum game since ranking. Prowl... well it depends on if you want to take his Ninja stuff from animated for the sake of uniqueness, Of course, and this is again, spoilers for the comics and kind of sort of a spoiler for a potential sequel Prowl is apart of Devastator in the comic, after Scrapper was murdered he was modified to be the new Head of Devastator. So he was a part of Devastator and Optimus Maximus, until he was replaced in Devastator by Scoop So that would be interesting to see how that'll work.

Anyway, if you use his Ninja stuff from Animated as inspiration then holograms/clones?

And for Sunstreaker... I have nothing.His only other unique features have been having a Headmaster and having an insecticon for a pet... Oh my god he should totally have Bob as his INSECT SHAPED ROBOT BUDDY!

Just based on Sideswipe alone you could have: Red Alert, Sunstreaker, Windcharger, Mirage, Jazz, Bluestreak, Prowl, Skids, Smokescreen, Tracks and Hot Rod without too much effort. Maybe from Sideswipe or Wheeljack you could get Brawn, Gears, Huffer, Hound, Ironhide, Ratchet, Trailerbreaker and Hoist.

Ultra Magnus from Optimus is an easy one. You could get Blaster and his tapes from Soundwave. And then Bruticus, Superion and Defensor wouldn't be a huge step from Menasor, as long as you don't have to animate all the separate transformers.

No, I'm horrible. Just the currently equipped Melee and Range weapon. Which means you can STILL stack it 12 times... + T.E.C.H.

EDIT: Also, minor glitch encountered. Merely swapping to an Item Pull weapon isn't enough to make it start pulling items, a checkpoint reset or going into base is also needed. Also Item Pull makes "collect the dots" challenges easy.
