keypoints from the podcast for Transformers: War For Cybertron @ tfw2005.com wrote:* The game is a 3rd person shooter, with gameplay like Gears of War.
* Cover can be destroyed, fully destructable environments.
* The backgrounds and backdrops will not be static. (Things will happen in the NPC world, such as energon being transported, machinery working, maybe even cameos).
* Story missions and Co-op are confirmed--a team of at least three other characters is confirmed. There will also be both multiplayer and single player modes.
* Three vehicle classes: Tanks, Jets and another unmentioned class. Depending on the classes and your abilities, the levels will be multi-tiered and have different paths. For jets, this means multiple vertical levels to explore.
* All characters have two different time-based skills (e.g. Shield, invisibility, teleport, etc.).
* Storyline is one story broken into two interlocking parts, Decepticon Campaign (first half) and the Autobot Campaign(last half). It is an origin story.
* Second level is set to explain Starscream and Megatron's relationship. (The first level was previously confirmed as being the tale of the first meeting of Megatron and Starscream).
* Many of the G1 actors are coming back to reprise their original roles. A formal announcement will be made at a later date in 2010; however, Peter Cullen is confirmed as Optimus Prime.
* Hasbro has said this game is canon.
