Line 40:
** Also, much like most continuities before this, Megatron does treat Soundwave with a fair bit of respect. Compared to virtually everyone else he so much as speaks to, that is. Which means that he only takes his typical threatening tone ''once'' with him.
** Starscream has shades of this with his subordinates.

Line 202:
* [[Old Soldier]]: Ironhide's age and experience are commented upon during the game, especially on the mission he shared with Optimus and Warpath.
* [[Palette Swap]]: As expected, there are a few characters who essentially have the same appearance, but different colours (i.e. Starscream and the Seekers as usual). The game even gives you the option to do this yourself as part of multiplayer customization.

* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: One of the powers of the Scientist class, basically a [[Palette Swap]]. It's even more paper thin to other scientists, who can see the health gauges of all actual allies, but not disguised enemy Scientists, and even more so when someone tries this as Shockwave who has a very unique character model which involves a big purple glowing chest which when using this ability becomes a big red glowing chest. The lack of these obvious distinctions, however, makes it possible to fool an enemy who isn't a fellow Scientist long enough to club them with a melee attack, usually.
