    Default FoC Metroplex game image

    Topping off the giants of the first game (Trypticon & Omega Supreme), the titans in the second game are Bruticus & Metroplex... and this time, you'll be able to play both in FoC (apparently).

    An upcoming gaming convention is supposed to be the big reveal of Metroplex in the game, but one of the gaming magazines has come out with our first look in robot mode... and he's very Gen1 looking.

    We keep thinking that this game can't get any better, and each week they give us something bigger to salivate over.

    How could anyone assume that a combiner is even close to the same league as Metroplex? Doesn't seem right to me.

    I wonder if Metroplex is gonna be the game's final boss, like how Trypticon was the last boss in WFC.

    Want TOY!!!

    Most of what I've read seems to suggest he isn't playable, and that you "control" him via commands from Optimus ?

    Either way, looking forward to it !

    I've heard that it is "playable", but yes, not in the same way as other characters... possibly using it like a pilot in a fighterjet or tank.
    It may be a new dimension to the game, to keep it interesting, and not just a "soldier" wandering around shooting things.
    Even though they can transform into vehicles as the big gimmick of TFs games, I think it was something lacking in WFC (and Transformers games in general) in that they don't tend to drive/fly/command vehicles.
    The game designers need to ignore worrying about criticism that it would "waste" the conversion gimmick of Transformers, and incorporate more interaction with vehicles... as they are soldiers who just happen to transform, but shouldn't have to rely on that as their only "weapon".

    My thoughts too. It may be that the game does not imply Bruticus is the same size as Metroplex, just that both happen to be the "large" characters you can control.

    I'd think Metroplex should be able to kick Bruticus like a football.
