    Great news. Hoping they're playable in Escalation too.

    Now we just need fembots and it's all good.

    Cool, but...Playing as Grimlock in multiplayer will suuuck. People will just run circles around you and shoot you from a distance while you try to get enough kills to transform. :lol

    Yep, playable in escalation. Supposedly there isn't going to be a class advantage, they'll just operate as a skin. Which is still amazing.

    haha. I doubt the rage meter will apply to MP or escalation. If it does, you're 100% correct unless the shield and sword combo just does work and the rage meter comes alive after like 3 kills. Dash, sword and shield combo might be brutal if the sword hits like a sniper rifle did in WFC.

    Man, I'm going to go insane with MP customization.

    Maybe the rage thing is like a ten killstreak or something?

    Tell me that multiplayer offline split-screen escalation is in and then I'd be excited.

    High Moon if you can also include some femmes in the DLC that'll be great! :thumb

    For some reason I completely glanced over "Escalation" and only saw "Multiplayer" in the article. Derp

    Maybe there's a chance of the player cap being raised to 5 so all the Dinobots can be in a single game?

    Not sure if I'd want to be Grimlock in multiplayer... I mean, he's obvious sniper bait...

    So why did High Moon say they wouldn't be available for mp? If it's because of the dlc why not just say so in the first place? All they had to do is say dinobots are not in mp at launch but will be patched in latter. I wonder if this means fembots are also in but not untill dlc.

    Due to contractual agreements, they really cannot reveal things until they have received "the green light". This is more than likely one of those scenarios.

    Except it's probably just his parts that are available in Competitive MP. I think only in Escalation will we be able to use his Rage ability.
