werent you the one who was getting upset with reviewers for not giving it a perfect score even before you had even played the game? "

technically, it is. but so is tatooine, ryloth, sullust, dagobah, etc. the outer rim constitutes a vast amount of known planets, so it would be a better question to ask specifically what is in the unknown regions. unless, of course, revan went to the corporate sector or the ssi-ruuk cluster, which are both, according to the star wars map, both "beyond the outer rim" as well. "

i thought revan went to the unknown regions, which is completely different from the outer rim. i could be mistaken though. in either case, it would make more sense that he went to the unknown regions, since thats basically (duh) unknown in terms of existing star wars data apart from a few references in some of the later star wars novels, whereas the outer rim has been documented various times in the eu.

which in effect ruin those force powers, making them a waste to even pursue.

Bastilla Skywalker. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that literally made me spit my coffee on my keyboard. thanks a lot.

as long as they give him an official alignment that corresponds with my view of him, sure. but the chances are they wont, so i voted for no.

25-30 for me.

thats just it. the hutt jedi went against what continuity stated, that the hutt species can NOT be force sensitive. but then they allowed that. but then later they went back to their old stance that hutts cant be jedi. in other words, continuity changes for the sake of current stories. you make it sound like there have never been any flaws in the continuity. but the hutt jedi clearly broke established rules. but nevermind. ill leave you to your "flawless" continuity and your tantrum over a ship that makes a brief appearance and has no effect on the game whatsoever.

the only thing youve proven is you spend way too much of your time, and way too much of your energy complaining about A FREAKING SHIP/DROID THAT APPEARS IN ABOUT 1 MINUTE OF THE ENTIRE GAME. think about that for a minute. all this time arguing over what a basilisk should or shouldnt look like. how exactly does the design of a ship that you only get to actually ride ONCE in a cutscene affect the game to the point where you need to "prove" youre right? not to mention (and heres the part you keep ignoring other people bring up) star wars continuity is NOT flawless in itself. or do i keep having to bring up the freaking hutt jedi? if you can explain the hutt jedi and still say that continuity in the sw universe is flawless, then go right ahead. otherwise, ITS A FREAKING DESIGN DECISION.

and your point? it doesnt matter what dark horse prints. if lucasfilms or lucasbooks decides in the next couple of months they want to go with the video game design rather than dark horse, then thats what will happen, regardless if dark horse says so or not. edit: and btw, i dont really want to get into a debate with you, since so far in this thread youve completely ignored everything people have posted that shoot down your "omg continuity ruined! continuity ruined!" theory, and only respond with the same repetitive things over and over, citing irrelevant sources. so feel free to complain that attons pants are not continuity because some obscure comic book says that fashion wont occur for the next 100 years.

above the games, perhaps. above lucasarts and lucasfilms final decision? no. so unless you were speaking to george lucas himself, your comment is irrelevant.

if youre trying to compliment kotor2, please dont use napoleon dynamite as an analogy. i hated that movie.

i dont think thats necessarily the case. there is such a thing as "in between". for instance, it would make sense that any and all posts that contain what most people would define as "spamming, trolling, or flaming" would be deleted. i shouldnt have to give examples of these because they should be easy to spot based on their tone and what the content of the posts actually say. so right there, thats a good percentage of the "negative" posts eliminated without even having to worry about being moderation-nazis. after that, it comes down to banning a user after perhaps one warning, letting the user know what exactly they shouldnt be posting about, and if they persist, then an immediate ban. again, not moderation-nazi since the person got a warning and at the same time should clue in to what is and isnt acceptable thus giving them a chance to refrain from doing it again. imo, the only difficult part will be when it comes to how strict constructive cristisism moderations will be. i dont envy the mods or devs on this one, since this is more open for interpretation than the above two examples. but even if they stuck firm to the first two examples, youd see a cut down in useless and inflamatory posts instantly, and youd also see a huge cut down in trolls signing up for no other reason than to stir the pot.

for some reason, thats what came to mind when i saw him posting so frequently. sorta like one last farewell to the forumers.

its not a stretch to assume it could have been modified. just think of the millennium falcon. the original "stock light freighter" before modified didnt have dual gun turrets, didnt have those hidden storage compartments, and if i recall, could only sit 2 in the ****pit, rather than the modified 4 seater than han solo owns. perhaps thats just assumptions on my behalf, but there is precedent in the star wars universe for people modifying their spaceships to their own needs, and perhaps the mandalorians needed their shuttle to accomodate more than just one person and modified it accordingly.

sad? no. disappointed? yes. this forum kills time for me. i know there are other forums out there, but to be honest ive never liked the bioware forums (just something about them), the codex forums seem rather quiet, and the lucasarts forums are filled with the type of posters who im atleast a generation older than. ive come to enjoy debating (and arguing) with a lot of people on here, so i suppose as long as atleast a few of those people end up somewhere, ill head there too.

i should bookmark your forums now since knowing my luck these forums will just "disappear" one day without too much notice.

so let me see if ive got this right: something that lucasarts and lucasfilm gives the okay to that you dont agree with (the basilisk thing), and thats breaking with continuity and "not okay". something that lucasarts and lucasfilm gives the okay to that i dont agree with (beldorian the hutt, a jedi) which seems to break continuity and in your opinion thats fine. weird how that works. personally, i think a hutt jedi, a cloned emperor and a sith lord that is unbelievably powerful (exar kun) are more a blight on the star wars universe than the fact that kotor2 used a different design for a single war droid that, for all intents and purposes, played a part in about 1/100000 of the actual game and story. if youre going to be anal about continuity, thats your choice. but dont use existing eu material or lucasfilms track record as proof, since theyre the ones responsible for the atrocities ive stated, including beldorian the hutt jedi, which is DIRECTLY in contradiction to everything continuity says about hutts being able to be force sensitive.

ding! ding! ding! we have a winner.

i got the xbox version and i knew the risks going in (ie. not being able to fix or patch things). thems the risks when you buy the console version over the pc version. i understand why youre upset, but at the same time from a technical point of view, it would be next to impossible (i believe, but i guess i shouldnt comment since i dont know the inner workings of an xbox) to "patch" a console game without making it a new version and selling it for a discount. whereas a pc version can be patched quite easily (in relative terms) and distributed for download over the net.

try it. go to biowares forums and say that bioware writes "simplistic" stories and that they arent even in obsidians league when it comes to story telling (which is pretty much the type of posts youve made here). see how long you last there. then why does every single one of your posts include a comparison between the two? seems to me youre the one thats making the issue a "bioware vs. obsidian" one.

i edited my post because i didnt want to continue the argument, however..... you are being a troll because all youve done is attack obsidian and their credibility and ability to make games. you constantly compare them to bioware and say they arent even in biowares league. im not sure how thats NOT being a troll. are you telling me that if you went to biowares boards and, hypothetically, did the opposite and said that bioware sucked and that they werent even in obsidians league, that the moderators at bioware wouldnt ban you within 15 minutes?

edit: not even worth it

i think its safe to say that i speak for many of the so-called regulars and those newcomers who come here for serious discussion (with the occasional goofiness), that this is exactly what we have been wanting. i know ive personally pmed the mods about quite a few "troll-ish" posts and posters, but through no fault of their own, all they had the power to do was delete or close the thread and limit the persons posting priviledges, but could not actually ban the person.

can i hang out with you?
