How to unlock the Decepticon Warlord achievement in Transformers: War for Cybertron - Definitive Guide

If you have beaten the game on an easier difficulty than Hard you can load up the last checkpoint of each level and beat it on Hard and it will count toward this achievement. This will save time and stress. Same for Autobots

Lets say you beat the game on easy. Go back to chapter select and set difficulty to Hard. Load the very last checkpoint and beat it. It counts as beating the entire level on hard.

These achievements are stackable.

Completing it on Hard also unlocks the Medium achievement and, presumably, the Easy achievement as well.

Just a bunch of self-righteous elitist nubs who condemn people for taking a shortcut when they spend all their free time blowing through this game four times to milk all of the achievements.

Needless to say, very fine solution.

Hey anyway to get an achievement is acceptable unless you're a noob and you hack your gamertag.

@ddak, I just wanted to say that there has been an update that needs to be downloaded. I just started the game on easy tonight, but I can try deleting the update and try out this solution to see if the update is the issue. Can anyone confirm this?

I ran through the game co-op with my friend after the update. I'm not really sure why it didn't count for him.

Thanks for quick post, I will give it a try myself with update first. If it doesnt work, I will disconnect from xboxlive and delete it to see if the update affects your solution. Can you still do the coop solution you wrote with the update if you don't have a friend who has the game or did the update screw that up too?

No problem guys. Shame I didn't have the money to buy the 2nd game this month so I could write guides for that one too.

I had the same problem as DDAK last year. I beat the campaign and then came back to the last checkpoint on hard mode and nothing popped. Now the game recognizes the highest difficulty I beat it on was hard so I think I voided the achievement...

As said in the other solution, you just have to beat the last checkpoint on EACH of the five Decepticon chapters. This makes it not too difficult, as you do not have to play the entire campaign and they're stackable with the normal and easy ones as well. Good luck!

Chapter I:

By far the easiest because you face a bunch of cannon fodder, with two guys carrying turrets at the end. I recommend Megatron for this one just because two shots of his fusion cannon take out all the easy guys. Use his energy drain to suck the life out of the turret guys.

Chapter II

You can be any of the jets, it doesn't matter because you have to be in jet form to beat this level. Energon cubs are in destructable crates on the base of the boss. You won't be able to hurt the boss til he recharges, when you see the energy ball emerge. Just dodge the rockets and the pink energy beams. Using the machine gun ammo first, then switching to rockets rather than wait for a reload, it only took two reveals of the energy ball to take the boss down.

Chapter III

I struggled a bit with this one. Since there are no energy cubes in here to restore your health, it will be very hard if you play as Soundwave because he has the repair ray. When I switched to Megatron, I got it in my first try. Just remember, boost away when the floor is orange, and with the clones spin their staffs, jump so you don't get shocked and slow down. Megatron's fusion cannon will take them down in two shots, his tank gun in one. Drive around a few times so the clones cluster around your buddies and take down multiple ones. Don't forget your ability to hover, it will increase the damage, and just put you out of range for the clone's attacks. When the energy ball emerges, just time your shots. Shoot at the spinning shield and by the time it gets there, it will hit the ball. Two times of this and you're done. Just remember, after Megatron mentions Zeta's boasting, the clones come AND pillars will randomly fall, so pay attention to the floor. Don't forget to use your energy drain on a clone if you need health during the battle as Soundwave will be preoccupied. Ammo, weapons, and grenades spawn where the clones die too.

Chapter IV:

While taking on Omega in jet form, you have bullet turrets to use in the front and center, and rocket turrets to use in the back up top. Omega seems to forget that you're at the back turrets, so stay up there attached to the rocket turret. His sweeping yellow ray doesn't go up there, but some orange rockets do. They don't cause too much damage though. When he puts his shield up and fires the huge rockets, stay put and just shoot any that come to you to blow them up. After Breakdown whines a bit, and Soundwaves say Omega's defenses are down, Omega will release a few jets. Use the turret to knock them out. After all jets, or all but one, are dead, Omega will return. Same thing as before, some orange rockets, yellow ray, shield and missles, and then jets. Just keep at it, it takes awhile. If you need health, there's respawning cubes on the map, and some energon gernades were behind the right turret that I was using.

Chapter V:

Select Soundwave to take advantage of his ram boost as a truck to escape Omega's fire on this level. Whiles Omega is rechaging, grab some ammo, and right by the single wall cover, there will be a turret to activate. Get it as soon as you can and remove it. There is one up top on the other side as well, do the same. Stay away from your comrades and Omega will focus all fire on them, leaving you free to unload on Omega's chest. Just watch the missles that he launches out of his back, they can go in any direction, he does not have to be facing you. Just transform, and zip away to the other side when you're getting attacked and use the turret again. Turrets and energon cubes respawn in this chapter as well which makes this process much easier.

You can also get the Devastator achievement too by having Omega destroy all the cover or walls that you hide behind in the level. Go for it if you're feeling confident, and don't want to play the level again, or just do that one on easy.

Great guide! If you have a similar one for the Autobot campaign, you should post it. It's great to have a summary of every boss in one place. Thanks!

Great guide buddy. You do mention in chapter III that there are no energon cubes. They appear on the outer wall after each round of clones when you have to shoot the energy ball, they are in a previously locked compartment that you have to break to get them out.
