High Moon Studios: Activision’s “really getting behind” the new Transformers game

Posted By | On 18th, Jul. 2012

Activision is supporting the new Transformers game a lot, High Moon Studios, the developers behind the game have said. Transformers: War for Cybertron has received some great previews so far and looks to be much better than its predecessor.

“Frankly, multiplayer was pretty darn good in War for Cybertron. There were two problems with multiplayer,” Director Matt Tieger told Ausgamers.

“One, the community wasn’t big enough. I think with multiplayer games, there’s a certain tipping-point, where you just get this self-sustaining group. We didn’t achieve that, but I think we will on this game. Mostly because it’s a higher quality game, and Activision’s really getting behind this one.:

Gamers would enjoy customizing their Transformers in the menu and it’s something that’s a major improvement over the previous game.

“We barely delivered on expectations, I feel like for War for Cybertron, on what character customisation could we do. So we knew we had to turn that to 11, and we did. It is awesome. Players who like customisation – whether they’re Transformers fans or not – will spend ten hours in the menus just building Transformers; it’s awesome.”

Thanks, VG247.
