illdog Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Yea, it does look fantastic huh? I worry about how long it will stay fun though. Ive also played up to the second Devastator fight and it's very samey. My only other gripe so far was when I was chasing Megatron as a vehicle, I could really have used a fixed camera point instead of having to do the camera as well as steer, dodge and attack. Took a bit of the fun away. Fuck me there are some stats as well, weapons and equipment and synthesis and investing in tech, it always takes a while for this shit to sink in to my stupid brain. But so far it's pretty god damn fun. Onwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 I just finished this for the first time, only on Scout (Easy) but I have to say I fucking loved it. I have no idea how a non fanboi woud feel about this game but the combat is fun relying on Bayonetta like last minute dodges that activate slow mo (witch time) for you to proper pummel. You can finish combo's off with the vehicle attack then link that straight in to another combo. If you master the fighting system you could probably do the whole game without getting hit.

illdog Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 Stupid phone, posted before I finished. I'm going on a second play through with Grimlock on Warrior (medium). You get to keep all the weapons you picked up along the way therefore instantly boosting your new characters strengh which is great. Got my head round synthesizing too, its pretty simple really, just combining shit together to add to the strength of your chosen weapon. Weapons have slots as well that can add effects to the weapon like adding to the attack or upping your dash attack strength, those old chestnuts. Fucking Grimlock. He's like a character you get at the end of a game so you can go back through the levels like a God. He's a different kettle of fish from the other four. Just wanted to say yea, this games rocks.

illdog Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 I dunno, about 4 to 5 hours? I've been reading stuff about going back through on the harder difficulty levels, how it ups the cap on your stats each time so you get stronger and stronger. A guy was saying he's beating the bosses on Commander in 5-10 seconds now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 I just beat it with Grimlock on Warrior difficulty. It was a definite step up but still extremely doable. Though I can see Megatron being an extreme pain in the ass on Commander difficulty as he was a bit of a cheap cock on Warrior. Next up, Prime on Commander.

hinn888 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I love the style of this game and the fact it's made by Platinum is always a plus but is it worth the price tag? Cheapest i've seen it is £30 and i'm still skeptical at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I was sort of expecting Nag to go "OMFGWTFBQQ! Just fucking get it because it's TRANSFORMERSSSSSS!" so the objective reply stunned me. Well done, Nag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 I finished this on Commander with Prime today. I found it tough, the battle with Devastator and Menasor was a ball ache for sure but persistence as always is key. Did a little grinding on the Challenges for weapons and managed to get some great Hammer drops, synthesized them together and made an A grade Freeze Hammer that is almost twice as strong as my previous weapon. Also lucked out with the drops and got an S rank Grimlock Sword, gonna save that little bad boy for a harder run. Now that Magnus difficulty is unlocked I'm gonna grind the Challenges for some S rank gear and go for some of those boss achievements. Loving this game right now.

illdog Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Still plugging away on this, I've gotten all of the beat the level bosses without damage achievements and I'm now hunting down the collectibles... After that it's just SS ranking the levels which to be honest is the one I'm looking forward to least. Thats impressive mate, did you spend some time grinding good weapon drops in the Challenges on Magnus difficulty? Ive been nipping back here and there, still love this game. Fuck SS on all levels on Commando, just absolutely fuck that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I played a bit of this yesterday to cheer myself up. I like this game, it's good. It is a bit better than Korra but then it has had more money thrown at it so it can be the spectacle brawler you'd expect though it's still quite far away from Revengance and Boyonetta. But like I said, it's still a lot of fun. It's hard not not have fun with this combat system. But I think I could do without the loot system. There is a lot to sort through and I just don't feel like it makes a lot of difference. I've barely been bothering with it and I've not had anymore trouble with the game as I do any other of this type. I don't really have any attachment to these characters so I've been using Sideswipe since he has a dash, a missile launcher on his shoulder and turns into a cool, red car. I think I am near the end. I just had a fight with Starscream in that space where anime people go when they move fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyKurosaki Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Well,done the first level of this. Its excellent. It does feel a little like theres a lot going on,customisation wise (weapon creating, modifying etc). But,initial impressions are very good indeed.

AndyKurosaki Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Finished this with Optimus Prime. I've wayyyyy too many other games to play to go through with other characters. But I really enjoyed this. A bit short maybe. But excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
