They got these like many many times in the movie: 1. They always leave Optimus to fight the decepticons alone and Optimus seem to like that. In ROTF, Optimus instead of taking Sam to the safe place with bee and the rest of the team, he brought sam with him to track down Megatron where he has to go one a 3 against 1 fight with the decepticons which result to his death. Also, in the final battle against the Fallen and Megatron, they let Optimus do the job all by himself too, Prime was lucky that he was able to subdue Megatron and face The Fallen alone. In DOTM, they didn't even show up when Op was handicapped by Sentinel and let Megatron do the job for them, they only show up when everything is over. In AOE, None of them even show up when Optimus go up against Galvatron, maybe they got in trouble with Stinger but i don't thing it would take 4 of them to do so, they were no where to be found even when Op got shot and captured by Lockdown. Also, i'm suprise that Galvatron retreated safety to the KSI while he must go through Drift, Bee, Hound and Crosshair to do so. Optimus really gonna die if he just continue to be the lone ranger like this, he cannot do everything alone. I also think it's a great mistake that he go searching for the creators alone. 2.They always left the humans to defend themself again the decepticons alone In TF2, Bee left Sam on the desert after Sam give him the mission to be the decoy which cleary didn't work. Sam has to face Starscream, ravage, the protoform, Long Haul, Scrapper all by himself, and i don't know what took bee so long to realize that the decoy plan didn't work to rescue Sam, but well he did show up on time. In TF3, I know Bee got seperated from Sam when the cons attack and Op lost his trailer. And he did managed to show up in the exact percise time to rescue Sam and Lennox. But why did he left them after that? He finally found the humans team and he just gonna left them on their own? And drive up ahead just to be captured? in AOE, All of the Autobot, none of them bother to go with Cade and Shane on their search for Tessa, forcing them to find their own weapons and fight the Lockdown's drones all by theirself, they were so lucky to be alive as Bee showed up on time to save them. In the final battle, Op was pinned to the pillar so it technically make him useless and Cade was forced to fight Lockdown alone while bee is their too. Idk what did Lockdown do to Bee that he completely disappear after Lockdown throw him to the ground leaving the humans to fight Lockdown all by theirself until Op is freed
one of my favorite lines from optimus was him yelling at the others to leave "this is my fight!" yet there he was impaled on a sword unable to do anything.
Hahaha dunno why but reading the parts that say the Autobots leave the humans to defend themselves made me laugh a lot!!
The greatest mistake the Autobots made was trying to help & care about the worthless, pathetic, lying, backstabbing, evil humans.
yeah, and even when Ratchet and Optimus got hunted, they still didn't kill any humans which result to Ratchet's death and Optimus almost got killed
to be fair, Lockdown got off easy compared to Prime's numerous other victims so maybe stabbing & bisecting someone from behind is considered honorable for bay-prime.
Optimus killed some Cemetery Wind guys at the Yeager farm, did he not? And Ratchet started firing on them when Lockdown shot him with the missile, mistaking it to be the humans'.
Optimus can say what he wants but he killed at least 8 humans at the farm and ratchet got at least 1 before being taken out.
I just want to say, they're not Super heroes. They're soldiers. They cant be around all the time to save the day.
I think he was just scared them off, he mostly shot to the ground. And i don't think ratchet's bullet hit any body at all
When they said "You need to get to saftey- use this" and pointed at a beat up car, my first thought was "But you have a Bugatti/helicopter standing right there..."
