I would like to get some feedback on if you guys think we will or should see Omega, Metroplex, Trypitcon & Bruticus as bosses in escalation. I think it would really add value and re-play to the mode in addition to other known transformers as bosses.
I believe metroplex and trypticon would be a little too big for escalation maybe even omega but I could see bruticus in the more 'open' levels.
I would really like to see them squeeze Omega in there, this could be the best escalation out of all the games, could you imagine Starscream or Soundwave leading 20 plus drones into combat, must see tv!!
I highly doubt it'll be anything other than buffed versions of normal enemies. So you could have Megatron appearing with x3 health/damage, for example. Or maybe stuff like the big drone guys from FOC. As for if we'll see the huge guys you listed in the boss waves? I doubt it. It would be cool, but I think some of them may just be too big to fit in the (reused) Escalation maps, none of which are super open... unless they shrunk them down, but that'd be kinda silly. Gears of War 3, the game from which I'm assuming this boss wave idea was... ahem... "inspired" by... actually did have a large enemy like that in its boss waves: the Brumak. But to be honest, it was so huge that it would always clip into the map environment, making it just do nothing but jitter around a whole lot while shooting at you. Occasionally it would switch spots, but overall it resulted in it kind of being an awkward boss fight.
you would think they would just make a map big enough since they aren't creating the whole game, it would be epic indeed.
Would love to see bosses in escalation, have the combaticons pair up after a few rounds and then a 4v1 with Bruticus at the very end. A cassette escalation could work too: Infiltrator/scout - Ravage Destroyer/leader - Rumble Titan/soldier - Frenzy Scientist - Lazerbeak That would allow for regular bots like Jazz or Ironhide seem like big bosses. And a Dinobot escalation would be awesome.
