Transformers: Devastation |OT| Rising in Disguise

Better not be locked to 1080p on PC.

Getting mixed reports from the steam forums, I suspect what's going on is that it's locked to your current desktop resolution, might need to set your desktop to 4k to downsample this.

Will test when I get home from work.
 
I don't think W101 even let you pick Hard off the bat unless I'm insane? It's doing the Bayo 2 and Rising thing where Hard is the closest to a regular Platinum normal. It doesn't feel like a regular Platinum Hard where they swap enemy placements insanely or anything like that.

I just assumed that you could. I played the game on normal and thought "this would probably be a nightmare on hard for a first playthrough."

But if this is more like bayo 2 and Rising balancing then hard sounds like the way to go.
 
After beating the game go to Collections in the Main Menu
You'll find something interesting ;)

Anyways just beat the game and damn dat story at the end
Wow Nova Prime is cursed to turn evil even here?
Superion and Defensor showing up makes me wonder if they're there to function as bosses for the Decepticon campaign lol.

That final QTE was kinda funny but the final attack from Prime is just Banderas.gif

Bring on Devastation 2, Platinum!

as short as reports said?
 
This is a must-have for any Platinum fan and any character action fan. You don't even need to be into Transformers. Amazing so far.

How many hours would you estimate it takes to finish?

Took me what 5-6 hours on Normal? This is if you don't search for collectables which apparently I missed a lot of :P
They're mostly artwork and gallery stuff but I think they're worth getting cuz the art is really nice. Features some Cybertron series and G1 art.
 
If anyone wants a little light reading to tide them over until they get home to play, here are some links to PDFs of the official game manual:

PS4 / PS3

XB1 / X360

TFD doesn't do the best job at explaining its systems in-game, but this should help you get the gist of what each of the character stats represent and info on the various status effects in the game.

(Man, I miss printed manuals.)
 
So, how's the pc port quality? really considering getting it, seeing i love Platinum games.

Very good, I'm running solid 60fps at maximum settings on a GTX 960. Some reports say it can go up to 4k even.

I just played through Chapter 1 for about an hour and a half, GTX 970/i5 4690.

Good Port. Haven't had any issues. There aren't a ton of options but the game itself runs great, and the min. requirements make it seem like it'll run on almost everything, I'm way overkill for it.
 
Dying to play this game but I probably won't get around to it until like Nov/Dec unless I finish MCC sometime soon.

Platinum hasn't let me down yet, I even really enjoyed Korra and still boot it up from time to time.
 
So I'm trying to decide between getting it for Xbox One or PS4, there's no real reason to buy one over the other right? Because if not I'll just do XBox because its already plugged into my tv.
 
Glad to hear this isn't another Korra (A game I actually enjoyed, in spite of it's problems or never having watched much of the show)

Dodge offset is in, right?

Who's the one on the right? I remember him being one of my favourites.

Apparently this post was all that was needed to turn me around on my narrative concerns for this game.

Inject it right into my fucking veins, Platinum!

Ironhide.

Yes it is.

This game is so much fun. So far Bumble Bee with fists is my go to, but i haven't really gave anyone else a chance.
 
For some reason I thought this game was arena based. Does it have actual traversal in its levels? I don't care about it if it's just Transformers Musou.

edit: spoke too soon. I read "Third person action" and got all happy. Now I've read the OP and I see it is arena based. :( maaan. too bad.
 
So for the PC version in regards to resolutions I can confirm that 4K support is in.

What is odd is that it isn't polling directdraw for a list of available resolutions, instead they've hard coded in a bunch and included 4K, but didn't include anything between 1080p and 4K, so folks with 1440p monitors hoping to run in native resolution are SOL.

lol I'm a 1440p monitor owner and I was coming in here about to ask.

Looks like I'll flip DSR on.

I guess 21:9 support is out too then. :(
 
This is why Platinum is the best at what they do right now.

All the movement, the fluidity, that synchronized vehicle mode, the dodges. It's like playing a cutscene. And I'm on normal
 
I really hate how the transformation works in this. Extremely finicky.

Should've made it a double tap like in Bayonetta. Hold just doesn't work as well I feel.
 
This gaaaaame! It's pretty much everything I wanted. Great, fast combat. Awesome boss battles and plenty of them. A robust loot system along with character leveling. It's the total package.

Activision dropped the ball hard not marketing the shit out of this thing to action game fans. Platinum really did a wonderful job on it. I had to stop playing to go to work but I'll fire it back as soon as I get home.

I didn't see any, did see a couple of 4:3 resolutions though, lol.

EDIT: For what it's worth I'm getting locked 60 FPS at 4K. Specs: i7 4770K, 32 GB RAM, Geforce 980.

Couple of downsampled shots:

I was like this at first...

It works for combos, building up hits on some of the stronger Deceptions and as they take a swing back at you, Dodge...transform...attack, all while keeping the combo meter going...that works because its tied to a single button, Dodge/transform.

I keep my finger on that button as I am constantly dodging/transforming....its just something you'll get used to.
 
Grabbed it. Going to start on hard. Wish me luck. :P
Good luck, hopefully you don't get hit so hard your eyes pop out.

YO GUYS STOP PLAYING DEVASTATION FOR A SECOND IT'S AMIAMI TIME

MP-28 Rodimus
MP-29 Shockwave
Diaclone - Diabattles V2 First Release Limited Edition

MPs just went up! That Shockwave...mmm.

Okay, carry on. :)

unnnnh. I want. I already have the hasbro version of Hot Rod, but it really bothers me that his legs are red and not grey like they should be
(also, it was missing the little matrix that goes in his chest).
Hopefully they'll be around early next year for reasonable prices. It's too late in the year to be buying 'spensive toys for myself, gotta get good Christmas presents for others and not be greedy.
ack! he comes with a fishing pole!
