[KOTOR 2 and Jade Empire]

Which is why I said this in reply to CrashT...

 

Maybe so, but when Microsoft acquired Bungie they made Halo an Xbox exclusive and were very non-committal about a PC version. We all knew it would arrive on PC eventually but to all intents and purposes it was an exclusive. Anyone who wanted the game bought an Xbox or did without. After the "certain period" you speak of people had lost all interest in PC Halo.

[Suggestions To The Devs.]

Secondly I would like to see a hell of a lot more Masks! The only one in the game I liked was the one that Bastila gives you after the temple mount (Vacum mask I think it's called).

I prefer the Sith mask. That one you get from Uthar's room. But I agree, there should be more masks. I wanted Revan's! a shame you get his robes but not the mask, they go together.

[Alien Races You Would Like To See In KOTOR2]

they should add zabrak and bothan as there are both species different items in the 1st game

Zabrak and Bothan would be nice. which reminds me - have we ever seen a Bothan? Even the official site has no picture.

Here is a pic of a Bothan spy in Imperial dress. You have to scroll all the way down to see him. http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swbattlefront/factions.html

hmm, so that's a Bothan. not what I expected. it'd be cool to include them tho. I still remember the "many bothans died" line from RotJ... always refered to but never seen.

 

anyway, thanks for the link.

[Please no fading to black... it was getting good!]

heh, who wants to see Bastila 'kiss' a guy with pale skin, yellow eyes, and veins popping outta his face? not a pretty sight.

[Will you be a real sith in this game?]

[Clothing option?]

At least the robes have hoods now - better still if they can be up or down.

 

As for armor over/under clothing, not sure about this. It would be nice, I agree. But then you'd have to remove robe bonuses... A Jedi is already powerful so imagine if they had robes and armor... they'd be untouchable.

[Another Kotor2 preview]

Another new planet is Telos, the one Carth in the original game hailed from. Expect to see cameos and back-story filler from Carth, T3-M4, HK-47 (of course) and a slew of others who survived the last story.

The return of Carth, eh? Well, I'm not too surprised. It makes sense to include him since we visit Telos. I hope he tells a story about his 'brave' exploits on the unknown world. That should be worth hearing.

 

There is a new auto fade out of the main interface when exploring the world and not in combat or another action, resulting in a virtually full-screen view of your surroundings.

I like the sound of that.

[The Lightsaber]

Odd that people are saying that lightsabres were underpowered in KOTRO when it was obvious that lightsbares were the most powerful weapon in KOTOR.

Were they really more powerful? Until you found some good crystals ordinary melee weapons were better. There's some good blades available early in Kotor.

[The Lightsaber]

Why not? In the movies do you see any blades inflecting more damage then a lightsaber? No!

 

The Lightsaber IS and in the game SHOULD be the most powerful melee weapon.

Well, then you'd get people complaining that the lightsaber is overpowered. Just like we're seeing here.

 

But I agree with you, the lightsaber should be the most powerful melee weapon.

[Avid kotor fan]

Good for you...

 

I don't have anything to contribute either.

 

"hi" back at ya.

[The Lightsaber]

Oh I see. There were more powerful weapons in KOTOR so lightsabers were overpowered.  :D  No. Those weapons were just even more overpowered.

actually, lightsabers were underpowered, but some melee weapons were far too strong. I expect sabers to remain as they are with maybe a few tweaks. They can easily add better crystals to customize your saber. Nothing too radical, we don't want to overpower them in Kotor2.

[Contradicting statements?]

hmm, very suspicious this blackout. I don't see the need for one unless it is important later. It's not amnesia but it serves the same purpose.

[Returning charaters]

hehe, only 1 vote for Carth!

 

And none for Zalbaar!

[The Lightsaber]

I didn't really notice the "underpowering" of the lighstaber what with how quickly everything died from it and slicing open every door and lockbox.

Give Canderous a Baragwin Assault Blade and you'll realize how underpowered sabers are In fact, I almost used those with my own character, a Jedi. hmm, something wrong there.

[The Lightsaber]

I'd like one hit kills but only if you are very high level. The same applies for enemies. It would be no fun to keep dying from a random hit. Lightsabers should be far more dangerous though, and have a clear advantage when facing 'swords'. Cortosis weave on every melee weapon was silly.

[Please Add Better Inventory Management]

Agreed but i would like to see a more realistic inventory management so the character cannot carry infinite items

it's a shared inventory, which is also unrealistic. If you were to make strength a factor would that mean the strongest character decides how much you carry, or the party as a whole? I think you'd have to remove shared items for that to work.

[Characters from KOTOR1]

The gender part is easily fixed. They ask you what gender Revan was, so simply to two voice overs Male and Female.

It's a lot of extra work just to include a single character. I think Revan will be a cameo anyway, or his fate is told to us. Avoids a lot of hassle.

[Characters from KOTOR1]

btw, anyone else finding the site slow right now? it took me ages to post that reply.

[Characters from KOTOR1]

why would he wear that if you take the LS ending tho?

 

ah the fun times with the multiple endings stuff keep on coming

yeah, I keep forgetting about the lightside ending. I suppose they could say he falls to the DS again and dons the robes and mask, but LS players might not like that explanation. I still think it makes sense to put Revan in the robes/mask, it avoids the problem of appearance, unless he/she speaks then you have gender to deal with.

[Characters from KOTOR1]

It will depend on what you say about KOTOR1. I bet you can kill Revan if your on the dark side. I just want to know how they are going to do Revan's face.

No need for a face if he wears the robe and mask.

[will i be able to kill indiscriminately?]

Fine, it's game over if you kill that guard. So let it be over. Why protect players from their own stupidity?

Good point.

 

It's also game over if you choose the wrong option during your trial, so making stupid decisions, and paying for them, is fine by me.

[Feats - Changes and additions]

If Count Dooku's dueling style is included I'll be very happy. 

Why ?!?

It's a finesse-based style than the hack n' slash you got in Kotor. Power attacks, flurries, critical strikes and all that stuff. No. Dooku fought as a duelist should not just hacking away with a saber until the other guy drops.

[Feats - Changes and additions]

If Count Dooku's dueling style is included I'll be very happy.

[Poverty for the poor LSers]

If you win the swoop race on tatooine and sell it at Yavin you get 154 per bond, rather than 60 if you sell it anywhere else. You will get RICH.

yeah, that makes a huge difference. The first time I played I didn't sell those bonds at Yavin so I couldn't go crazy and buy everything I wanted, but the second time I did and managed to equip the entire party with premium items. quite unbalancing actually, to receive a large amount of cash so quickly. It would be better if Yavin station had never existed, imo.

 

You get enough health packs, repair packs and MORE than enough grenades, mines, computer spikes and repair parts throughout the game, you dont need to buy any more.

That needs to change. the amount of medpacs you get during the game is ridiculous.
