head on over to gamefaqs, or the bioware kotor forums. there is a guide in there on recommended stats and some useful info for the jedi classes.

well i believe that LA has to review the story given to them by obsidian, so it is in some part LA's fault for not picking up on the little detail as well. shouldn't take away from the game though, star wars is filled with some continuity errors.

does anyone know the progression of the feats? do guardians get one at every level like the soldier did? or is it the same from kotor?

after seeing some of the harsh reviews do you wish LA gave obsidian more time to work on the game? do you wish bioware worked on the sequel instead of obsidian?

sound should've gotten a 10 but oh well. looks like imma have to be the judge of how good this game is myself, seems i can't trust these reviewers. looks like no GOTY nominations for this one, damn overated halo 2...

I think the Force is nothing more than GL's version of 'chi' or 'ki'. It's a life force\energy that feeds into all beings and yadda yadda yadda. also, in fiction it always allows the user to do very cool things, i.e. street fighter, dragonball series, sw universe all use essentially the same type of energy but in diff ways.

probably so, most of the enemies where you'll get the most exp from - sith and other challenging, human characters - are probably gonna give you the most exp, as they did in the first game, and it is very unlikely that they'll respawn as most of it is story driven, so once you kill them their gone. i don't know how much exp you'll get fighting some of the various creatures in the game but i can bet it won't be enough to get to level 99. they're not that many and they don't respawn fast enough to get you to that level. (if it's anything like the first game) inadvertantly i think there is a level cap. if that guy in the screenshot is lvl 24 17 hrs into the game, he will probably be ~lvl 50 by the end of the game, probably where obsidian wants you to be. 25 for jedi class and 25 for prestige. judging by the screenshots though there are a lot of enemies to fight in the game, i saw in one preview vid where your char took on like 15 opponents at one time (where as in kotor 1 the most you took on at a time was probably 4 or 5) and gave you a ridiculous amount of xp. also since ur the last jedi you are gonna get an in a lot of fights with a lot of sith i suppose. but hey im probably wrong about all this. we'll see the truth behind this level cap tomorrow. :D i was wondering about those myself. some damn good drawings.

yea, i've read that in a couple of places. that guy in the damn screenshot was level 24 without a prestige class, so we're gonna have some uber jedi b4 the game is over with. there has to be a whole lot of enemies for someone to reach that high of a level, that early in the game. sorry to be so off-topic but magna did u draw the sig urself? that is a damn good pic.

Really? Where's the proof? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> For all you gamers that have a thing against reading the game mechanics... Play the game again and read up on it <{POST_SNAPBACK}> im playing the game right now and haven't seen anything like that so far. is it in the "messages" screen or the manual?

but it will probably still be difficult to max out everything since the jedi classes don't gain a feat at every level. and if the experience gain is distributed the same way as the first game, you might not even get to a high enough level to have everything. but after seeing all these videos with a numerous amount of enemies, and a specific lightsaber form to deal with situations like this, it might be a lot easier to gain experience than i think. and if a lot of the enemies respawn (very unlikely) it might be possible to have an unstoppable character by the time you leave the second planet.

Dark Side Male jedi counsular\sith lord str: 12 dex: 16 con: 12 int: 8 wis: 14 cha: 14 +5 attribute points into wis? (no level cap so how many atr points are possible) picking up blaster deflection (max), flurry (max), dueling (max), and i heard somewhere implant is a startin feat for all classes or something like that, either way since there's no level cap i should be able to get it. decided to try something different from what i've been doing in kotor. might catch hell on the first two planets.

he was going to another planet again when Darth Sion saw him and shot his ship, hmm doesn't that sound familiar?

well the Xbox is billed as "the most powerful console on earth" so there's no reason why everything shouldn't look like a Ninja Gaiden or Splinter Cell. But in your defense ppl do bash on graphics too much. i found KotOR to be one of the best lookin games on the system. my draw dropped when i looked at some of the beautiful scenery on dantooine (probably not gonna be able to say the same in the 2nd game). and even though a lot of ppl gripe on the lack of lightsaber reflection (never even noticed it) did that really take away anything else from the game? i dont even think the engine allowed\could handle something like that... im pretty sure obsidian did the best job they did in the time allotted. if they developed an entirely different engine we probably wouldn't be gettin this game til the 3rd movie comes out, and there'd be pissed off fans too b\c what was wrong with the first one? none of us gamers were complaining about graphics when we were banging out countless hours of Super Metroid or Chrono Trigger (man i need to play that again) on SNES :D face it, we're "graphics spoiled".

God you poor little noob. Read my siggy damit! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> well seeing as i thought i had something, the search function was not important at that time. i'll shall head ur advice next time and use it. ur siggy is kinda hard to read as well.

aww dammit, i thought i had something...DAMN!

this is a scan from the xbox mag review (sorry to whoever posted this but i dont remember the link)... now as for the pic, scroll down, take a look at the guy in the back, to the left of the black dude, with the green saber pointing directly at his head, with the blue lines on his head. is it just me, or does that look EXACTLY like malak when u were having that vision of him and revan opening up the star map on dantooine OMFG and next to the pc icon that is damn bastila!!! but maybe it is just a flashback...

this review says that the story is undeniably better than the first...

the loadings time were a little bit faster after i put the first on my hdd but it was negligible. i really didn't find the load times to be that long anyway. the framerate wasn't a problem to me in the first game either.

I don't remember Halo 2 having a totally different engine, hell i dont remember halo 2 being that much diff from the first one except new weapons, multiplayer options, etc. which is exactly what obsidian did with kotor 2. so basically these guys took off for presentation and graphics. seemed pretty biased to me, but im just a little upset cuz it didnt score higher than the first. ill wait to pass judgement myself. good job obsidian.

a lightside palpatine is on the way! :D thats what that guy posted. aww crap, imma be unstoppable

im sorry for the too-damn-big-pisses-everyone-off sig. but back on the topic this echani stuff sounds damn cool

Its ok I totally got censored anyway <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Another wonderful day of head bashing. In my next life, I want to be a Sith Lord too... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you should've said something...i was lookin for an apprentice. i had to go with some guy named Ulic :D

oh well i have a new sig I'm a ****ing tool Love, Exar_Kun what can i say? kumquatq3 gave me a better one. btw what is a tool? is that UK slang for **** or some other part of the male genitalia?

Because sometimes the stubborn and thickheaded won't learn any other way? " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i can agree with that.

why do we have to resort to name calling?
