universe… G1 / IDW or Bayverse is what I'm picturing. If a writer can make it work with another universe that would be fine too, though it's hard for me to picture it with TF:A

This sounds interesting. I might try it. Who are your favorite characters other than the ones you listed.

Is it mandatory that one should be in the hive mind--is it looked down upon if one is not?

Is it constant or can it be turned off?

favorite ten autobots, in orde: prowl, red alert, jazz, springer, optimus prime, ratchet, first aid, ironhide, silverbolt, skyfire

I was thinking, on peaceful Cybertron it was strongly encouraged after graduating from an Academy to choose a group, kind of like a divergent like society. Once they upgrade to adult its a requirement. There might be some, with extremely good faking skills that could go by without, or some that their function is to watch over the other hive minds from an outside point of view, one that could disconnect and test a new comer or something.

When I think of a hive mind, I think of a group that has thoughts the exact same: we need Energon, we need to repaint, we need a check-up.

if you can make that work in a story, that could be interesting.
