    When Lockdown shot him and he begins to attack the humans, did he managed to kill any of them?

    We see shots of humans getting knocked back by his shots. Whether they were killed or simply stunned is up to the viewer.

    Probably he did. At least I hope. I also think Prime must have killed someone during his barn rampage. Who knows.

    Oh, and also when Prime jumped on those SUVs. Of course they died.

    You know what is funny, is optimus obviously kills humans BEFORE he gives his how he has to kill attinger by breaking a vow even though he broke the vow before that.

    Well, the thing with that is, he had to kill the humans at the barn, or else they would Kill Cade, and Tessa. So he had absolutely no choice. However, he did have a choice to kill the one in charge of Ratchet and Leadfoot's death (At the time he said "They are going to die", he did) and then he was going to kill them by his own choice.

    Prime actually didn't kill anyone at the barn, as weird as it is. His bullets blow the CIA guys back, but you can clearly see them drop and roll over the car, rather than fall like dead meat.

    I know it makes no sense for guns to be able to do that, especially since everything around the army dudes explodes, but ok. The way he throws himself in front of those cars which then explode is really much more ambiguous..

    Not sure if Ratchet kills anyone either. Can't remember anyone falling own, so I assumed he was a really poor shot.

    Yeah, but when he fell upon those SUV's, he probably kill the drivers. No way they could survive that.

    We do see some of the soldiers getting knocked back by his blasts, though their fate is ambiguous. As for his aim, to be fair, it's probably hard to line up a good shot when you're getting shot up from a multitude of angles.

    I saw at least one fly through a windshield. He's probably a skidmark but you never know?

    They never showed a human get shot and killed except Attinger. While none of them were slane by TFs, I'm sure some were seriously injured/killed in some of the chases.

    Then again, if they weren't chasing them, they wouldn't get hurt.

    Ratchet's actually a decent shot if Dark of the Moon is anything to go by, where he takes out some Cons that are really far away. It's ambiguous if he managed to kill any humans in AOE though.

    Ratchet may have killed some humans before AOE, but judging from his personality and small characterizations he had, they were to help him evade.

    Too bad he's gone, his design l will miss.
