Olsen Twins? In a few years... maybe.

You got that right. The role was like tailored for him or something. And what about the Twin Suns man? What gives? "

(w00t) Somebody has actually been paying attention! I'm flabbergasted.

Yet another comment I wouldn't expect from the CEO. Not the kind of "our product is undoubtedly the best thing to happen since the invention of sliced bread" corporate gibberish that is so common nowadays. It might not mean much but you, sir, have my complete respect.

Anytime. So? Dealing with "ifs" isn't going to change what the game is. So far, I haven't seen any of your posts that actually hint that you might have liked any aspect of the game. Obviously the game could have been much better if... But as you can see, the former statement can be applied to almost any game you can think of. It's cool and all that you are fond of what the game could have been, but it seems you don't really like what the game is. Yep. I'm condescending, pompous, and from time to time, trollish. So what? It's not like anyone is pointing a gun at your head to reply or even read my posts. My attitude is my own and it's not your place to tell me how to behave. I'm not even going to describe yours, because this could quickly degenerate into a flame war and I'm not in the mood for one, right now. And as for the "correct" way to play the game, well, there really isn't such a thing. But this is a role-playing game, not a social relationship simulator. If instead of roleplaying you do something else and the game isn't so good, don't complain. It's as if you cheat and then you complain because it spoiled your fun. Metagaming and cheating aren't really all that different. I try to play the game as the devs intented it was played first, and then fool around, metagame, and cheat. So, you want to make this personal? Sorry pal, but I didn't flame you on that thread. Getting all defensive on me now isn't going to work. If you can't deal with other people's comments, you're going to be in for a tough ride around here. So grow up and deal with it. You obviously haven't been to many other boards. I can tell not only from that comment but from the way you react to comments. You see, every board has its share of trolls. Add that to the fact that these are the forums of a games developer, and you have to take into account all the AOL kiddies that can't even spell the name of the town they live in right. But at any rate, that's what we've got here, whether you like it or not. If you like it and want to stay, be my guest. But if you don't, the white cross against a red background in the top right corner of your browser might be what you've been looking for.

I am not presuming, you said yourself that the influence system required thought due to some "hidden" nature. If you were roleplaying, you wouldn't need to "think" about the influence system. It's that simple. And I am not justifying the influence system. I have said so many times before, the system is broken, but not as much as you claim. This is false. In my first playthrough I played a neutral character for most of the game, and I had no problems gaining influence with Kreia. And by neutral I don't mean "sometimes a Saint, sometimes a psycho". Besides, the info bits you get from Kreia that are actually relevant to the story have low influence requirements. It's all the stuff about Revan that requires you to be close to her. Besides, it looks like you have conveniently ignored my point about high and low influences having actually the same effect. There is no such paradox. Both alignments can piece the story together unless they make an effort to avoid talking with NPCs. I'm beginning to wonder what is it you seek here. You disapprove of the story, and you disapprove of the system that rules the PC-NPC relations. Those two points alone are probably the most important aspects of the game. It sounds to me like you don't like the game as a whole. Nothing wrong with that, of course; everyone is entitled to their opinion. However, I think you should move on and stop dwelling in experiences you haven't enjoyed. Perhaps you haven't realized yet, but you can't change other people's tastes through posting.

That is true. Unfortunately, that alone renders the influence system worthless. I mean, what's the point of redeeming Atton when he's still happy to gun down every man and his dog? That is not true. It's only that way if you are willing to sacrifice your roleplaying in order to gain influence, which is a rather lame thing to do in a role-playing game. I have the impression that instead of role-playing you have been doing something else. You don't need to think about the system. Just play and the system will do the rest. If you are playing an evil character, you should be evil towards everyone, including your beloved NPCs. There is a point in the influence system in which if you have lost enough influence with somebody, the influence checks will begin to succeed. I believe this is a way of implying you have broken that particular NPC's will. Granted, it's not the best way to do it, but at least it allows for development of those NPCs whose alignment is opposed to the PC's. This however can lead to paradoxes such as NPCs becoming dark Jedi who are close to attaining LS mastery, but that's a completely different story.

Uh, I'd be *really* frightened if some of those "volunteers" were actually appointed as moderators. It'd be like giving a loaded assault rifle to a crazed baboon.

You can use Miles Sound System to open those files.

The place to go for TSL mods is Holowan Labs. That's where l33t modders help each other and give birth to some of the best mods so far. If you come up with a good idea, they might even make the mod for you. Neat sig, by the way.

Only if I get to trade gizka with those who have the opposite version.

And may I ask why the hell are you bumping this useless thread that, incidentally, you have posted elsewhere too? Don't bother answering. It's a rethorical question.

It happened to me with K1. In 2 however, I find myself looking at it quite often. Even more now that the character window doesn't display which effects the character is under.

You get the same XP shooting them with the turret. Just look at the feedback window.

That is quite an imagination you've got. For starters you don't know what the true motivations of Mandalore are. As some people have stated before, Mandalore isn't very fond of the idea of the Sith winning any battle. They had enough with one Sith already. Even if Nihilus was killed, it didn't mean that his forces wouldn't win the battle. You don't know if Nihilus was a surviving Jedi of the battle of MV. Nobody really knows what Nihilus is. He was spawned from the Mandalorian Wars, that's all we know. And obviously, the current crew of the Ravager is not the original crew. The original crew was killed in the battle and that's why the ship was adrift in the debris field until Nihilus salvaged the vessel. There goes your "revenge" argument.

Oh my! Now you have truly hurt my feelings. Perhaps you should quit watching the Flintstones and get back to reality. I don't need to add my own words, and I haven't. Your posts are inane enough without me adding to the fire. The sooner you accept this sad fact, the better. And that's why you are an idiot. LA didn't rush the game. They simply forced OE to release the game when it was supposed to. Did they give OE a short development time? Sure. But that's what OE agreed to. And since it was OE and not LA who actually made the game, the blame for the game's problems is at least shared equally between the two. I know that four lines of pure logic are a risk to your higher brain functions, as I know you will come back with some more corny insults taken directly from some Hanna-Barbera cartoon, but I'll take the risk. Perhaps it will allow you to actually GET A CLUE.

Sion. OE sure taught BIO how to flesh out a Sith Lord. Credible, sound, and in the end, tragic. Damn shame you only bump into him from time to time.

You are just making stuff up for the sake of it. It was clearly stated that Revan wasn't at Malachor V. He had been delayed by some mandalorian scouts or something in the edge of the system. I'm not sure if it's Kreia who tells you this, or you can gather as much from the MV loading screens. That explains why it was the exile who gave the command to activate the MSG, a decision which wouldn't have been his to make if he hadn't been the supreme commander at that battle.

Something about the yellow pages.

Heh. 3rd post and the thread is derailed already. That's a new record.

An HK unit is unable to bring harm to another HK unit. It goes against its self-preservation programming or some such. HK tells you this.

Irrelevant. The amount of trolling, bashing, and general whoring could be drastically reduced if the mods actually banned people and deleted thrash threads and posts. It seems to work over at BIO. The current situation is the result of very deficient moderation, nothing else. I'm not bashing the current mods here, because they probably do what they are allowed to, but there are too few of them and they can't be here 24/7. There are a few members that I actually think could be good mods, if given proper powers and freedom of action. It's not like the forums can't be salvaged. Honestly, I don't care much whether the boards stay open or not. If they are shut down, I'll find myself with a lot of free time which I will probably put to better use. If they aren't, I will just stick around. Either way, I win. But still, your reasons just don't cut it.

I don't agree. While English may be a more "elastic" language than others, the basic grammar and lexicon are really easy to pick up. German grammar is much more complicate in that respect. The same goes for oriental languages. In fact I think one of the factors that make English the n

That's irrelevant. Once your influence with him reaches critical levels (10 according to the script) it's as if you had "broken" him, and the influence checks begin to succeed. That way you can make him a Force user. I don't think you make them Jedi in any way. On topic. I like the Handmaiden better. But then again, I don't play Force-spammer builds, so I don't have much use for Disciple's meditation.
