Jazz: "Cliff', did you catch all that?" Cliffjumper: "What, you mean the screaming? The horror? Followed by more screaming?" Jazz: "Uh, yeah, that be it."
These are really well done, but the timing of some of these logs has me confused. The first audio log sounds like Grimlock talking about smashing Deceptions with his tail, even though he doesn't have a tail yet. Sideswipe's first log talks about using the Ark to reach the space portal which hasn't been opened yet. Of course, I may be totally wrong! :)
The tail is just a figure of speech and the space portal might have been there from the start or they are talking about portal in the far off distance from the planet.
If you ask me, the first log is either Slug or an random unnamed autobot, about the portal i think the tower Shockwave found in the sea of rust had it open from the beginning.
@@fwhagads No, Prime had no ideal about the Space Bridge at the beginning of the game. So Sideswipe had to have made that log around the time Metroplex sacraficed himself.
@@shcdemolisher It wasnt retconned we never saw him recover, we were told to continue to cybertrons core while ratchet *tried* to "patch him up" the log just tells us that "after a valiant struggle omega suprme fell into stasis" meaning he never really recovered from what the decepticons did to him.
Well is only says stasis. The way I understand it stasis for Transformers is kinda like sleeping, except in Omega’a case here it would probably be closer to a Robo-coma.
DMW9365 I mean, we found his head in Iacons ruins. I’d say he’s pretty thoroughly dead since Transformers can’t be resurrected by just uploading them into another body. The mind is in the head, but the soul is in the spark. Without that, they’re just robots.
James.T .Adams Supposedly that’s just a statue. If you read the novels for the aligned continuity, which WFC and FOC are a part of, you can see that Omega is okay after the corruption is purged from his system. He even served as a sort of mobile base used by the wreckers for a period of time.
The cybertron games takes place when the Dinosaurs are on earth millions of years ago. That is different from G1’s way how the dinobots were constructed. As from fall of cybertron shockwave did some modifications & remodeling to grimlock’s team.

I believe that byproduct was Synthetic Energon, which is basically steroids in the Transformers universe. And oh boy, did Transformers Prime prove that! That's probably a Transformers Prime reference, too.
@@gxv-179 Funny enough, he also voiced that Narrator and Barricade in War for Cybertron, and the Vehicons in the Transformers Prime video game. Also Heatwave from Rescue Bots. Starting to think he has a huge thing for Transformers. Wait, he voiced Orochimaru?
I recognize Starscream, Sideswipe, Optimus, Megatron, Shockwave, Ironhide, and possibly Cliffjumper. But can anyone identify the voices of each Autobot and Decepticon that made these audio logs?
@@seanmurphy7845 the "Aligned Continuity" is Hasbro trying to fit three mismatched Transformers series together. It is obvious that the writers of Transformers Prime and the writers of Rescue Bots and the writers of the Cybertron games did not take any notes from what came before them. I honestly don't know why Hasbro tried to make them all part of the same continuity.
It’s referring to the acid lake at the beginning of Cliffjumpers mission, as the audio log is on a dead Autobot body beside the lake. The Autobots sent that trooper to scout to see if it was dark energon. It wasn’t, it was the result of the refinement of the giant energon lake we see in Jazz’s mission, which is actually the space bridge tower, as said by Shockwave in one of his audio logs in the same mission. It’s not talking about the Dark Energon in WFC.
Ironhide: Prime Bumblebee: No..... Arcee no! Ultra Magnus: Optimus no, we won't go! Elita: we can't! We as a species have simply nowhere else in this Universe to go, these war-torn lands are our home. Grimlock: Yes. Listen to her Optimus. We, as warriors all have an obligation to stay right here, and fight to the bitter end! Kup: Besides like your Elita said Optimus, where would we go?
@@NotWhomst well it’s the bay side during ROTDS that messed up the timeline. Not the cybertron side during ROTDS. The game has a confusing story & both are involved about the dark spark. I tell ya the cybertron side of dark spark has more fall of cybertron with war for cybertron put in & is more enjoyable with the discovery of the insecticons for fall of cybertron.
Some of these don't work. In WFC before he was a Prime his name was just Optimus, NOT Orion Pax. Sideswipe had to have made that log about the space bridge AFTER the Ark left Cybertron because none of the Autobots knew of the space bridge when the game first started. Optimus JUST STARTED FIGHTING MEGATRON IN THE LAST HALF OF WFC, NOT FOR EONS OR MILLIONS OF YEARS!👎
Shockwave could've opened it around the time of the game, while the autobots were working on the Ark during the events of the game. I mean, the portal was open in the high orbit of the planet, not to mention the energy readings would be investigated by Grimlock's team, although the Autobots probably didn't know where it came from initially. Shockwave found the original Space Bridge tower in the Sea of Rust sometime before FOC. He also made a replica in Kaon after studying the original.
"His name was just optimus, NOT orion pax." Dude, did you even READ the war for cybertron prequel comic? It confirms that he was always orion pax. And yes, the war for cybertron prequel comic is canon, otherwise, why even bother including it as a pre-order for the game? I'm pretty sure orion changed his name to optimus during the first game, it's not that hard to assume he didn't.
War For Cybertron was made around the time the Prime cartoon came out so its backstory dwelled on its own separate story. However, the Aligned continuity was created when they had similarities between the cartoon and the game and made it canon they took place in the same universe. The result of which was Fall Of Cybertron changing its backstory to match Prime's continuity hence why some things don't completely align well.
@@Tigressa101 except there was a prequel for the War for cybertron that had the exact same backstory of orion pax and megatronus, so how can fall of cybertron change a backstory that was ALREADY established in the 1st game's prequel comic? Also, the prequel comic was specifically a pre-order for the 1st game, so it is 100% canon before you say "a comic doesn't count." Am I seriously the only one who actually acknowledges The prequel comic?
@@michaeldunlap1032 I forgot about that. They didn't put in much of that comic's backstory into War For Cybertron so I guess they tried to do something different with WFC then reverted back with the comic's origin with FOC when Prime stayed the course with original backstory.
For the sixth Audio log - how come the Ark was built so poorly? It has weak armor and weapons. Why would the Autobots do that? They can build giant cities and massive robots, but they make the Ark so weak? They should make the Ark stronger. Give it more armor and guns.
Because they had to leave quickly as the planet came in the Decepticons' possession, plus the Insecticons were causing trouble. They probably couldn't find enough materials by the time the portal opened, so they either launched now or die under Megatron's tyranny. As for weapons, they couldn't find any more energy since it takes a lot just to launch and the Autobots to shoot their weapons. The portal is pretty much their last hope.
A better equipped vessel requires more time to make and more energon to produce, leaving you with less energon to launch it when it is time to go to space, which it will take much more due to the added weight and logistical requirements of the now bigger and better ship. If they had been able to predict Shockwaves space bridge, or the creation of Nemesis, the Arc might have been designed differently. It is important to realize as well that the margins were so INCREDIBLY TIGHT that after Megatron's attack in the first two missions of the game, which they had to fight off because the ship wasn't ready to launch yet.. there was literally not enough Energon left in their stores to get the Arc into space. Metroplex' sacrifice at the end of the game would never have been enough if it weren't for the space bridge, it was a pure gamble that it was going to be enough anyway.
@@Elderahn I know that the ark is being heavily damage by the nemesis's guns and tow cables, but did the ark guns do any damage to the nemesis? I mean the guns of the ark guns are similar to the ones on the transport.
@@bionic-tale4313 We'll probably never know if Nemesis and Ark was even vaguely on par with eachother. Megatron wanted to board them and beat down Prime himself, so it's not as if they designed the ship to go all out stand-off desstruction style.
@@Elderahn I know, but the Autobot transport guns give the Decepticon gunships and dropships a run for their money. I'm not really saying the the ark guns(which are similar to those on the transport) will do much damage to the Nemesis due to its design being a battleship/destroyer hybrid ship and not to mention being an alternate form of a giant cybertronian. The only destructible parts we've seen get damaged or destroyed are the tow cables and the sentry guns. Despite the Ark's defenses' short comings, these anti-aircraft guns can keep the Decepticon ships and fighters at bay long enough for the Autobots to hold out until they reach the portal, although the decepticons were also pulled in as the result of pursuing the Autobots' vessel.
