@uberkirbeeh7954 4 года назад

Sugar withdrawal or any withdrawal can do that to any mind and body. So it does not help that dark energon tastes sweet. I guess Unicron made dark energon taste sweet in purpose to lure Primus's children to consume it and become addicted and later on get easily possessed. Just like what happen to Megs.

@starscreamfan288 4 года назад

Über Kirbeeh that’s an interesting theory! I wonder if sweet tastes on Cybertron have a stigma, because bots would compare it to what dark Energon tastes like, that’s of course, if other things on Cybertron taste sweet or if it’s only dark energon

@uberkirbeeh7954 4 года назад

lilie heaney Personally, I like to think that they didn’t have different flavored energons, because dark energon flavor was completely new to them. If they did have different flavors, they could have in theory be able to process Primus’s energon that tasted like Dark Energon and prevent becoming too addicted to it. Then the only reason to become addicted to it would be the power they gain from it.

@destructomaniac2540 4 года назад

Think Megatron's "breathing" is due to the surgery from tank to flyer. He would've had differnet proportions to his body and weight to it so the shift could be the subconcious need to have the original look but unable to achieve it. Like phantom limbs of sorts.

@michaeldunlap1032 2 года назад

... um... you DO realize that fall of cybertron already explained why he is a jet, right? It's not because of surgery at all, it's because he was simply rebuilt with a new body. And yes, I believe FOC megs is actually a jet in-universe like in TFP (otherwise, his take would NOT have resemblance to the TFP show jet at all) but was changed to a tank during gameplay instead due to them wanting to make megatron's body taller In multiplayer, since the jet class is only SLIGHTLY taller than the car class and seeing megatron smaller than optimus would be ridiculous. So really, (in MY opinion anyway.) the ONLY reason he is a tank in-game instead of a jet is because of wanting his body to be tall in multiplayer, sorta like how female transformers aren't in multiplayer at all. Otherwise, he's canonically a jet in FOC, since why does his tank design look like his TFP jet design if it's not canonically a jet?

@odinlindeberg4624 3 года назад

It's also known that severe trauma can have significantly delayed pain reactions. For example I've seen soldiers describe being hit by a 7.62 bullet as feeling like getting punched until the adrenaline wears off and they realise that they're in much deeper shit than they thought.

For me the real question is, we saw that the tea card pretty much filled up the entire abdomen space of bumblebee, right? First off, I want to know how he still able to move properly and how there’s still space for that T cog in his body when he transforms. Now, the biggest issue: if the DeKock that was shown in the show could just barely fit in his torso technically speaking and he shouldn’t really be able to move much because of how stiffer it would fit inside of him, how about starscream? It seems implied that his is the same size, yet he has a much smaller waist

@juanimolina6048 4 года назад

They don't freeze on space because there's no atmosphere to transmit the heat away from them. On the artic there's an atmosphere that steals them from heat. This means that on space they'd suffer the opposite issue and they'd over heat

@starblocktheflyer7854 4 года назад

That is not quite true. There is a method of heat transfer that does not depend on contact between the heat source and object being heated (the heat source in this case being the Autobots, and the object being heated, if only minimally, being the Earth). That method is radiation. It is an electromagnetic wave (light), and it is how heat from the sun reaches the Earth through the vacuum of space, and how night vision goggles can pick up heat sources in the dark when there is no radiation (or, light) from the sun.

@zenebean 2 месяца назад

@starblocktheflyer7854 the problem is that radiation is a much slower method of cooling, which is why the international space station needs those giant radiators. An active bot would take a long time to cool

Since Dark Energon apparently tastes sweet yet is still poisonous to any normal bot, does that mean that Megatron effectively got superpowers from shoving a shard of what might as well be antifreeze into his chest?

@nyckae8587 2 года назад

If you watch the show, the Dark Substance grants a Symbiotic relationship ability that grants megatron control of Specific Terrorcons as well as sense them and link with Unicron. I would say it slightly enhances his abilities....not too much but it does give properties like accelerated healing since it brought him back from the brink of death. Twice.

@summanus4437 4 года назад

I mean, with the amount Megatron's been battered and thrown around there's definitely got to be some framework damage somewhere. The idea of a big figure like him having a version of restless leg syndrome is kinda endearing in a way. It'd also make a lot of sense that he's always ready for action, given his history. "Breathing" may also be due to a need of air for their internal energon processing, or possibly as a means of expelling waste produce from said process. In regards to Predaking. Many amphibians, such as frogs and alligators, can "power down" their bodies to conserve energy. Wood Frogs do it in winter, while Gators and Bullfrogs do it to escape dry seasons. You'll notice he only comes back online when the sun rises, so it's quite likely his body entered a state of suspended animation until various senses/sensors picked up a rise in temperature that would allow him to defrost properly without immediately freezing again.

@otakumangastudios3617 2 года назад

I kind of figured all that especially the eye stuff for Megatron had to do with his obviously very disturbed mental health state. When people have such poor mental health, their eyes do that kind of stuff.

In the scene where Soundwave is playing the Unicron heartbeat in the episode One Shall Rise part 1, you can faintly see his eyes behind the visor, so he definitely has them. And when he speaks in the episode Minus One, he seems to be moving his head like the other bots do when moving their mouths, something he does not do when simply playing back a recording, so him having a mouth is certainly not out of the realm of possibility. I'd love to see the character model for him and see how much the animators actually put back there.

21:02 This was actually a subject of debate when I was in Year 10 Science. Being unable to feel pain is something that actually occurs in humans as a result of mutation. Most people would think it a gift but pain has a very important role in human survival. Pain tells you when your body is being damaged. You avoid painful things because they would damage your ability to acquire resources, escape predators or find shelter. The people who have mutations in their DNA and don't feel pain as a result often don't live to the age of 20 or very much past that point. They inflict so much damage to their body that they prematurely die. If you broke your leg in a world football championship, you'd want to keep playing, right? But the pain you feel stops you from doing that. If you didn't feel pain, you would damage that leg so badly by splintering and tearing your muscles that you would never be able to walk again. What if you put your hand on a lit stove? You would just stand there until the flames consumed a significant portion of your body. Pain is necessary, unfortunately.

@Rubywing4 4 года назад

Totally. You also have to take into consideration that he was probably alone for THREE WHOLE YEARS before getting in contact with those bounty hunters to track down the Weaponizer Mini-Cons. He had a ship but no army under his command, despite the ship's rather large size, comparable to the Nemesis. Pretty much all the Decepticons either died, went to prison, switched sides or went rogue, while Starscream was left alone, finally leader of the Decepticons, but with no one to command! Starscream's a social creature, even if he's bad with social cues. He wants to be friends but doesn't know how to. Shockwave can handle solitude, but Starscream can't. After all, he returned to Megatron in what seems like desperation, not just because of his physical situation, but also because of his solitude. Starscream doesn't like solitude or isolation. Just look at him working in Trypticon Station, whether it be the video games or the books. Desperate to get back into action, so he agrees to join Megatron (though is notably forced to join but doesn't decline like Jetfire did). No wonder he gets depressed and gets so hurt by Bumblebee's words when he mocks him. No one cares to think about what Starscream's been through all these years ;-;

There nothing there to absorb heat, so the only way things can cool off is to radiate it away as infrared.

Interesting idea that their voice boxes are more like speakers than vocal chords, but speakers still need air to transmit sound. Sound after all is just the movement of air particles at certain frequencies, so I"m not actually sure how cybertronians can emit sound in space. Maybe it's not actually sound but some kind of radio frequency they're mentally talking through?

the in-universe explanation as to why the sapient robots of my scifi TRPG setting breathe: Supplementary part of their cooling system. They rely mostly on a liquid coolant, however a bit of air intake is used to assist in moving heat around the body and expelling it (usually via breathing out). In fact they don't normally intake air via breathing in (but they can as a part of their system's function) but instead bring it in through literally any and every seam and gap in their armor plates. They just expel it through their mouths.

Little known fact: In ancient times on Cybertron, certain crimes were punished by removal of body parts and replace with inferior replacements. Shockwave was one of those. His original head and one hand was removed and replaced with his single-eyed current version and his blaster-barrel 'hand'. An Autobot to suffer a similar fate was the original version of Whirl, of the Wreckers (not the RBA version), who also had his head replaced with a similar to Shokwave's, and a rotor-blade for a hand.

Explanation for the pain receptor thing: It would be great if they turned their pain receptors off themselves but they cant, it has to be surgically turned off. The reason why is because they need pain receptors to detect problems so the cybertronian themselves can locate the problem. Like how humans can be born without the pain genetic.

Did they not think they climbed into the either dead or comatose body of a kaiju sized cybertronean? I know they had other warships like the Harbinger or Airachnid's ship but Nemesis was assumed dead in battle so either Nemesis didn't die instantly and limbed away from his final battle only to go offline later or the decepticons chose specifically to climb inside of Tryripticon because it was convenient or something?

Cybertronians are made of living metal. Meaning that thy do have cells and it would make sense that when a cybertronian dies, these cells would start to break down and decompose. This explains why cybertronians reserected by dark energon are basically falling apart. As for skin pigment I have 2 theories. The first is that their original protoform color may be Grey and that as they decompose, their metal slowly reverts to their original design, starting with color. Another theory is that dead cybertronians turning Grey may be similar to when a dead human goes pale.

I believe Dreadwing once said that "the Forge of Solus Prime possesses the ability to create anything from raw material." The Forge can seemingly infuse anything with mechanisms ranging in complexity, only limited by the skill and expertise of the the Prime wielding it. Optimus in his ethereal stage of joining with the Allspark may have sent a surge to his spark as it transcends between dimensions to make it's way to the Allspark in space, this - while taking into account that Optimus' spark is that of The 13th Original Prime - combined with the combined wisdom of the Primes from the Matrix - which would also be very active as it was preparing to be passed down - is likely what gave him the upgrade as a subconscious measure of survival triggered by the option to do this becoming available when Smokscreen placed the saber in his hand.

For the breathing thing, i think it is similar to an actual vehicle. They take in air through some sort of filter, which can cool their systems down. This might be the reason why some pant when they are running for long periods of time. Such as RID grimlock panting after running for long periods of time or starscream gasping. I think this is their systems heating up or signals going through them, which behave similar to adrenaline within humans, causing them to need to breathe so their systems can cool off. In my opinion, this would be cool because it makes them seem less like just living metal and make them seem more like actual organic life.

And the takes off with a look off fear and shame in his eyes.
