is lucasarts incapable of making a good game now?  battlefront was crap, kotor2 was rushed, and now it seems republic commando is crap.  mercenaries looks decent, but with the lucasarts tag on it, im a little worried and will wait for more reviews before attempting that one.  :rolleyes:

 

Mercenaries is fun, but gets boring real quick. It's a rental at best. The fact that you truely can blow stuff up over and over is the most appealing aspect of the game. Nothing like calling in a carpet bomb air strike and watching an entire street go up in explosions. But, once you've seen it a few times, its lost the effect.

 

Republic Commando on the other hand is really cool. The visor, the squad based combat (much like Rainbow 6 - minus the super micro-managing), and the sound are all incredibly implemented. If you have a big TV and 5.1, crank up the sound, and go at it. It's a blast. Will the final game get stale? Who knows, but the demo is fun as hell.

the gamespot write up said it was "similar" to grand theft auto, in its open world and being able to drive/kill/do anything. is this comment accurate? if it is, it might actually be fun since im a fan of the gta series (although havent played the latest one yet).

i hope the final version is fun. ive read the novel :ph34r: and the story in the novel was....bleh, in terms of action for a video game. so i hope that the games story doesnt follow the novels story.

I think you're out of luck then. I haven't read the novel, but according to TFN it's supposed to be the "official" novel version of the game.

 

As for the game itself: I think it's gonna be one of those titles that will probably do better on PC than Xbox. They based on on the UT2004 engine, after all. I've tried the demo on Xbox and it was ok. It did feel sorta like Halo with the SW license added, but maybe it'll have a better, more fresh feel on PC.

Republic Commando demo has its share of nice gimmicks like the visor, but the level design is like the Library level in Halo and the A.I. is lacking. No point of using squad-based tactics when the enemy is dull.

It's very open, and you can take any vehicle you come across. Be it a jeep, a tank, a helicopter, or any other transport you see. Their comment is dead on.

I voted yes. I found nothing wrong with KOTOR 2 except for the few times I froze. And even though I froze, it was probaly because I played it 20 hours straight. I liked the influence system except for the fact that there was no way to measure how much influence you got. The quests were fairly challenging too. One thing I did NOT like was the planets. I didn't find too many of them that fun, and it felt like hard work instead of playing a game.

I feel it's like grand theft auto, but it doesn't feel as free. When driving you are normally just driving between two cliffs and if you go off a jump it feels like gravity is pushing you down. If your into war games where you call out your commands I guess you'd like it.

Ahhh, much easier to read now...

 

/sarcasm

Yeah, the whole gravity pushing you down is so silly.

heh I don't appreciate the sarcasm  <_< I mean it feels like your being pushed down hard, whereas in GTA it's very realistic driving.

 

 

Ahh, much easier to read again.

 

/sarcasm

Yeah, I mean, when I drive around town, doing my daily car jumps off roof tops, I love how gravity doesn't pull me quickly back down to earth. When experiencing this in GTA, it feels just like it does when I do it in real life. FLOATING AND FLYING IS FUN!

I think Kotor 2's storyline and character interaction could use some improvement, I mean the ending was not very fulfilling to me as it provided no closure.

Perhaps another month or two in development might have helped but I realize there was a deadline to keep, so never mind that part.

 

As far as bugs go, I guess I was one of the few lucky people who haven't experienced very many. I had one incident where the screen went black on me and froze up; I had to restart the game from scratch... <_<

Other than that I didn't find any bugs in the game, and I found it enjoyable enough to play more than once, so I would definitely buy Kotor 3.

I said gravity pushes down HARD. maybe if you could read properly you would understand. I mean it feels like your on Jupiter and when you go off a jump you hardly move. Perhaps improper physics will sound better to you.

/sarcasm

Yeah, because we all no how NOONE rides off jumps. Everyone on a bike just rides on the ground.

/end sarcasm

Did I ever say I did jumps off rooftops?

I r 2 stoopid 2 reed engrish. Me sawry 4 making u haf 2 reed mi stuf.

 

/sarcasm

Yeah, I mean, when I make my daily visits to jupiter, I love the connection between the deadly crushing gravitational pull of that giant gas ball, to the subtle pull experienced in Mercenaries. I'm just waiting for my next jump to cause me to become one with the ground due to the insane force in which the gravity is slamming me back to earth. I much prefer the floating/flying style present here on earth, as shown in GTA, where your cars go airborn at even moderate speeds.

/end sarcasm

 

Other than that I didn't find any bugs in the game, and I found it enjoyable enough to play more than once, so I would definitely buy Kotor 3.

 

Check out the force powers. A few of them don't work correctly. There, you've found more bugs now.

Huh? I don't even get that part... If your making fun of my grammar I should point out that I'm not even American, and your discriminating against people who make grammatical mistakes. You must need glasses if your having trouble reading.

ok wise guy do I need to draw a diagram for you? Let's say this car is going 50 miles an hour:

_-Car /

-------------------/

 

The car would go off the jump and have a bit of hangtime and then start to go down. In Mercenaries the car has hardly any hangtime at all and instead just falls down. I will not waste anymore time trying to explain something to someone who is clearly retarted.

 

/sarcasm

We all clearly know I typed "I went to Jupiter" in my post.... and we all know how the "genuis" Epiphany spotted it out and of course has proof that I wasn't exaggerating.

/end sarcasm

 

BTW, which force powers don't work? Does that power retivilize (sp?) not work?

No, I'm simply giving you the gratification of being right on your whole 'unable to read properly" claim. I thought I would give you a retarded response to make you feel better.

See what I mean? For the second time, you've claimed I was retarded, so my choice to give you the self satisfaction of being right about it was a good one. If you'd like, I can post in more gibberish, if ever you feel your self-esteem running low.

 

BTW: That's not a very good diagram... Maybe it's too complex for my retarded brain?

You're slowly beginning to understand.

Master speed doesn't give the defensive bonus, as well as the other defensive bonus force power (from what I've read, never used that one). I think there is another one, but I'm not 100% positive.

The mauarader/weapon master don't give proper damage reductions.
