sidious does say that his master used his ability to create life to sustain him eternally. that was of course until sidious killed him. the reason sidious is so old is because he has started to master this techinique as well. Theoretically you could have plaqueis in the KOTOR series, but it would be a major stretch.

Thank you, Obsidian. The wait has made this moment so much more satisfying. Enough talk now back to playing!!! OMG THE PATCH!!

I know that it has been sometime that this topic has been picked at, but I am presently a junior attending the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy. We have been pushed by our counselors to make a list of the 8 or so colleges that we would like to attend. By the time I graduate from IMSA I plan to have take AP Computer Science and the Calculus AP. I have also taken AP Chemistry and I will be taking Calc. based Physics. I also have a strong desire to continue studying German. Can anyone recommend a college that would allow me to get into the game industry, but still allow me to study German?

I have one question. Is there going to be a lot of "advertisement" in this mod. The largest problem that I have with Mods is that the Moders like to plaster their names all over the game. I want this Mod to be as uninvasive as possible. If the Moders want to covertly sneak their names into street signs on Nar Shadda or something that is fine as long as it doesn't not detract from the authenticty of the game.

Well, Lego Star Wars is out already, Rage of the Wookies will be out soon, Revenge of the Sith will be released May 5th, and Battlefront 2 and Empire at War are in the works. If I remember correctly, Lucasarts has three boths at E3, one for Rage of the Wookies, one for Empire at War, and one for an as of yet unreleased title (probably battlefront 2). Oh, I am getting my info from IGN at http://ps2.ign.com/articles/602/602877p1.html. I can't remember where it was that I read that Lucasarts has three boths, but if this is the case then KOTOR 3 is not happening at this E3.

I personally thought that this thread was funny, and not at all meant to bash OE or LA. I contributed thinking that this was a place to catch a few laughs and not blame OE or LA for the fact that the patch is a little late. TSL is an awesome game and i can't wait to get the patch to play through the game another couple times. As I said I just thought this was a way to vent a little gas, and have a laugh while I was at it.

if what the new guy leading lucasarts said is true about lucasarts switching to more internally developed games i am afraid. This is also coming at a time where a lot of george lucas's companies are moving to a warehouse in san fransico(?). So i wouldn't trust lucasarts with anything at the present moment. Go Obsidian!

how about the day that i am going to get laid. The seventh of never!

i didn't care to read all fifteen pages of this post, so excuse me if this has been stated before, but on Telos in the Jedi Academy, I have a glitch where when Kreia and Atton are talking you can't see Atton. The camera focuses on an empty prison cell.

I think KoTOR's look has become a little monotonous because when you talk to people all you do is stand around. There isn't a lot of "life" in the characters you talk to. Take a look at Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines and you will see what I mean when I say KoTOR has become monotonous. I would love to see a new engine as long as it does change the overall feel.

Hurray now I can stop checking lucasarts.com and obsidianent.com for any clue as to when the patch can be expected. All this "soon" business has driven me crazy. At least now I know that it is a bit further way.

I will admit that my choices were pretty terrible, but from what I had read on other post it sounded as if a lot of people didn't really care for it. I do agree that with more time and money it could have been better by leaps and bounds, but I stand with my opinion that The Sith Lords was better than the original. It has everything that made the first one great + Kreia. Say what you want, but Kreia is the character that really makes the game.

I was just wondering what you guys thought of Obsidians Entertainments's first hit? (at least I thought it was absolutey awesome) I would like to thank Obsidian Entertainment for an incredible game that deserves every award it was given and then some. I would love to see Obsidian develop KOTOR in the future, and eagerly await the new and improved KOTOR 3 whenever and by whom ever it will be made. (Come on you know that they are going to do another one, the question is when).

Actually I found out that all you have to do is "gain a lot of attention from the bounty hunters on the planet" and you will be approached by Visquis. I think that just means do as many side quests as possible, and then Visquis will "come" to you.

Have you broken into Vogga the Hutt's security room? After that I got a message that returned me to my ship to recieve a message from the Head of the Exchange (Visquis?). Mira talks to me after that saying that I have not done a good job staying low. Maybe you need to do a lot to the side quests to get your attention level up? Hope this helps

My sysyem is Windows XP Professional Celeron 2. Ghz 760 Mb ram Nvidia GeForce Fx 5200 Creative Audigy 2 zs I have found that the actions the active character makes do not have sound or at least the sound seams very distant. Also on Nar Shaada in the poison gas bar, the characters jump across the room in the same way that they did on Taris before KOTOR 1 was first patched. Is it part of the game to be able to discuss the sight Visas gave you with Kreia as many times as you want and continue to gain influence over Kreia?

I never ment to imply that they would end KOTOR, actually I meant quite the opposite, but I highly doubt that we will hear anything about KOTOR 3 for a while.

I can't believe that Lucasarts would end the KOTOR line, but I also think that KOTOR is a long way from being announced. The team at Obsidian said that their time frame for KOTOR 2 did not allow them to make major changes to the KOTOR game engine. Because the game engine was not almost completely rewriten, things like frame rate and graphics were not improved upon from the original KOTOR. This was the largest complaint of both Gamespot and Ign, so I don't think they are going to rush through the development of KOTOR 3. I would predict that we won't see KOTOR 3 until late 2006 at the earliest.

If you check out the official KOTOR 2 site they have updated it a lot. One point of interest is under game info there is a section on system requirements. It says "PC system requirements coming soon... Could this be a sign that the PC version is coming much sooner then February? Why would they have put that up so early if they weren't pushing up the release date...?

I have a fool's hope that Lucasarts will surprise us and get the PC version out by Christmas. I doubt it, but if they aren't going to improve the PC version then for what are they waiting?

I know that load times won't be a problem, but i was talking about things like the final bosses being rather easy compared to the final battle with Malak. I can't remember everything ign didn't like about it, but there were a couple other things that I think could be addressed before the PC version comes out.

Will the development team attempt to improve the PC version of TSL based on feedback from players and sources like ign or gamepot? This would seem like an awesome opportunity to address some of the issues ign was talking about.

I personally like the idea of having expansions, but I don't think that they would fit into the series that well. Unlike games like Diablo 2 (the only other RPG I have played), the story is not linear for everyone. Different people experience different parts of the story and attempting to add an extra quest would be overly generic. My biggest fear for KOTOR 3 is that it will be impossible to follow up KOTOR 1 and 2. I would also like to see KOTOR 3 have an "ends all," somewhat like Return of the Jedi. This would draw an excellent parallel to the original source. You begin with an introduction that has an ending that wraps up the story (just in case it should flop), then you move on to the darker story, and it should end with a large finale utilizing all the characters that have been important to the first two. Of course, if the third game is a hit, you can progress to either a prequel trilogy or a semi-related sequel trilogy. I would love to see what people could do outside of this Sith vs. Republic box that we are in now.

Lucasarts was looking into KOTOR 3, but do to some layoffs in the company the idea has been post-poned. Some of the Lucasarts employees working on early production of KOTOR 3 were laid off in July. Dishearting, but they need to at least finish a trilogy.
