    Autobots are losing for good reason. Most of them are kids who want to play the good guys so play Autobots so we have a bunch of kids in the game. They run around and never stay together whereas the Decepticon (literal) elite players are focused.

    I'd play the Decepticons too if not for the fact I prefer the Autobot warriors more.

    I could just probably play decepticon with the 4 warriors i have (3 starters and shellshock) and use the relics I get only to buy the rest of the autobot warriors.

    I still don't know why I don't do that. Maybe it's because I don't like having one side more experienced (more high-leveled) than the other.

    For those seeking to organise themselves better, I do have a TeamSpeak server at austs1.gameservers.com:9360. It's meant for the population of the Cybertron-Sydney server, but it shouldn't be too laggy for anyone in the US to use. No password required for now.

    It has a 50 user limit, rarely gets more than 10 on at any time, and has been paid up for the next six months. You should see me on there (and ingame) as Deus_Maximus.

    There's 4 channels for each faction, so it should be enough. Let me know if you need more channels.

    Anybody else notice how ridiculously overpowered Macro is?

    Shellshock is one of the most useless warriors in the game. His axe is just a waste of space and none of his abilities are really unique.

    Yeah, and it's not going to help that they're going to add several named characters to the Autobots.

    I was reading the founders' packs info, when I noticed the combo season pass info:
    Looks like we'll be getting 2 warriors each month.
    ...did you guys already know this?

    It's a hard job they said
    because re-sizing the buildings is too mainstream

    I thought the concept arts of the bots were the only thing they made so far, but they even made the whole model with textures. That was stunning me in the first moment
    If you take a look at valve, it takes them 5 months to get a model done D:

    but it's worth the weight (HL3joke.avi)


    Also, wheeljack and knock out were confirmed as playable bots on TU's Facebook.

    So, listening to their podcast, and I think Outsider will have a Scottish accent, as someone will but I can't see Chromia, Pandemic, or Flamewar with it.

    I started playing this game a few days ago, and it is awesome! I had rather low expectations for it, but it's just so fun! I love all the new characters, environments, and weapons. Hopefully I get enough time to play it often!

    Noneatme, where was that Map located? I've been trying to find it, but haven't done anything like this since I was in Primary school packing and unpacking my own Quake mods.

    Is it in a binary or is it a texture?

    Just went to the London EGX and there was a TF: Universe station with a lot of ppl playing the game.
    Last I saw it was a few years ago when it was going to be released on tablets and you were going to be able to customise your characters. They removed that so that the characters look more smooth as they would have faced a lot of tech problems.
    It looks better than I expected. It reminds me of the battleground game in World of Warcraft.

    The staff there said that developers are really keen to eventually introduce animal/beast war bots style characters and especially the dinobots. I guess that will depend on how well the game is received.

    Overall, Looks promising.

    Yup!

    I recommend everyone just try it, if you love the Transformers franchise. You have nothing to lose because it's free.

    It's a lot of fun... and very MMO style PVP, with 3rd Person Shooter aspects, but without fine aiming, as you can choose to lock on to targets.

    :)
