SilverSun Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Got my hands on the new GI and they have an article on Sith Lords. I don't have a scanner but I'll try and put all the important/new info up here. They have a concept art pic of the Zabrak,looks decent. Another interesting point is a bit on the HK droid at the start. Seems to go against the XBN a little bit. There's a screen shot of a droid that looks like 47 but is dark gray. Here's the little bit of info. He hates all life with a burning passion but he's silver (actually he looks dark gray to me) and he doesn't say "meatbag". The protocol droid you'll encounter on Peragus,HK-50,is most likely not the fan favorite HK-47 from KOTOR. Additionally,it seems that the role of HK-50 plays in the story is done after Peragus,and that wuss T3-M4 isn't going on any killing sprees anytime soon. So,does Sith Lords have a shortage of sadistic homoicidal droids? Absolutely not. Though he wouldn't clarify with any details, Gallo,responded with a single definitive word when asked if HK-50 was the last of HK series we'll encounter. "No." Other interesting points. ...It does not appear that the facial models from the first game will be returning, but there will be a crop of original choices for this adventure. "There are over 30 different heads to choose from and all of them are new." ...Some of the coolest skills can only be gained in another manner(then picking them from a level up)-they are taught. Throughout the game you will encounter certain characters who,depending on your alignment,can pass on their knowledeg of exclusive and powerful techniques. Force crush,is an example. I found that one really interesting. Does that mean no taking a Padawan? Not only will what you look like change as you lean dark or light but the look of the party members you sway will as well. Another interesting note,when talking about Sion and the other Sith Lords it says this. ..though they may not be allied directly with Sion,they are uniformly bent on wiping you out. Does that mean you could join one Sith and fight the others as well as whatever Jedi are left/republic? They a bunch of new screens but nothing really major in them. A new female PC head choice,a few small bits of conversation between a few of the characters. But they all looked smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sickboycp Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Thanx SilverSun. Of course, this muddies the waters somewhat. I guess we'll find out the truth in early December/mid February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Nuke Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Hk-50? Interesting concept, a dumb one, but interesting. So T3-M4 and HK-50 not 47 are together and are the EH last remaining crew members. Yet what happened to HK-47? Did Revan have 2 HK's, or is HK-50 an upgrade of HK-47? Ya know if I didn't know that when I made my arguement on that fact of killing HK-47 being bad Idea, this article had already been created, I would say that they went back and made Hk-47..Hk-50 so they wouldn't kill off HK-47. Unfortunatly I can't take credit for that, but atleast I can always know I changed that damn Valley for the PC version, well I was responsible for it. KOTOR 2 must be completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 In the original KotOR is was established that Revan had built 50 Hunter Killer robots during his reign as Dark Lord. In one of the articles it was stated that HK-50 would not be the only HK droid to appear meaning that maybe HK-47 does come out or another HK. I got the impression that HK-50 is a villain from the description in the article, maybe HK-47 comes out for LS?? Who knows at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sickboycp Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 It seems to suggest from this article that HK-50 has his assassination protocol on....and he is targeting you. Obviously he can't play a part in the storyline if you destroy him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearless_Jedi Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Finally a good idea implemented into this game, I like the idea of being taught special skills than just selecting them at level up, I am going to look forward to searching for the secret skills no doubt Battle Meditation and the new lightsaber stances will be aquired this way.

Nican Rucol Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 I don't believe he is targeting you. He wouldn't be programmed to talk to you. Just kill you. And it seems that if Sion and the Sith aren't exactly allied, you may be able to join either two dark side Sith alliances. Sounds neat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a scanner but I'll try and put all the important/new info up here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> First off great work and thanks for the info. Second is GI the full name of the mag or just a short form? and where did you buy it (i.e. country)? I would like to buy it thats why I am asking.

Muad'Dib Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Yup, I think it was during the conversation when HK-47 regains his memory, or shortly thereafter. HK-47 tells Revan that he was one of 50 assassination droids Revan created during his reign as Dark Lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
