What you need to keep in mind about his portrayal as a ruthless killing machine without any shred of honor of his template was that Megatron DELIBERATELY designed him to be 'Dinobot...but ruthless and loyal'. Basically, he's Dinobot without those pesky 'flaws' which made the Predacons lose arguably one of their best season 1 warrior right at the start of the war.
He's the monster Megatron created and in all ways he is exactly what Megs wanted him to be: all the power and combat prowess of Dinobot turned to eleven with the indestructibility of Rampage but none of that honor or disobedience. Had the episode 'Dark Glass' been produced I think he'd have been tackled more tragically, what with that episode being about Rattrap giving Dinobot 2 the memories of the original. However, until Rampage died and made his spark 'whole', Dinobot 2 really was a dull killing machine because that's exactly what he was made to be. However as soon as he (somehow) regain memories of the original, he quickly and immediately betray Megatron, showing that maybe all it took is perhaps his spark being his own now and maybe some memories of who he was, or at least who he is a copy of.
