KotoR 3: Ideas, Suggestions, Discussion, Part 22

[Yodaman]

Hello everyone out there, I just played again KotOR 2 and now I developed some ideas, what u could develop in the upcoming greatest thing of all times, KotOR III.

 

So, first I have some Ideas about new Features for battles.

 

Cinematic Cam : Who did not enjoyed this feature in Empire at War. Just give some orders and then, lean back and watch the battle. In KotOR it would look much greater, you know, seeing a battle between Jedi and his opponents or a group of Mandalorians killing some other people. It should be a possibility to give first orders to your characters and then press a button and watch them executing those. Maybe, you could take influence on the viewing angle by yourself or just let the computer rule. All texts or other stuff should be hidden.

 

View on yourself : Ok, Im german, so I am not pretty shure, if you understand what I meant. You know Fable? There was an option to look at yourself by simply pressing a button. I KotOR, we have this in the Characterwindow, where you can level up yourself. And I had an idea, taken from Jedi Knight, you could watch your character with his armours etc. and if you level your character up, you can watch in this window the animations of an action, before you already selectet it. Know what I mean? You level your character up, but you can see the image of your character still. You can take a preview of the animation of an action, before giving it to the character.

 

Improved Force System : It was nice, to select your Force Powers manually in KotOR 1 and 2. In part 3, i thought it would cool to have a Force system equal to the abilities system. I mean: You have with every level 10 or more (or less) points and can give it to your force powers. Instead of getting with every point a new force power, you can increase the powers. You first select Force Pull or Force Lightening and give points to this power. After 10 points (or more or less) you updated your power that far, that the power comes to its next step.

 

New/Changed Force Powers :

 

Force Open Door : Simply a great mod power, i have for KotOR 2. Want it in KotOR 3 also.

 

Force Telekinesis: The Jedi can throw an object against a enemy (Like Vader did on Bespin. Pretty cool!)

-> (next step after giving power points to this power) Force Hail : The Jedi throws objects from a small radius against his opponent.

--> Force Group Hail : The Jedi controls objects from a greater radius and throws it to every opponent in reach.

---> Force Hammer : The Jedi uses his immense powers to tear every object, even corpses or trees and parts of the walls at every enemy in reach.

 

Force Wound: The Dark Jedi creates inner bleedings in the body of an enemy. The enemy gets a loss of health.

-> Organ Frezzle: The Dark Jedi frazzles the organs of his opponent. The enemy takes much damage and becomes slowly.

--> Heart Crush: The Dark Jedi frazzles the Heart of his enemy. This deadly Force Power ends the life of the enemy or takes a great damage. If the enemy can rescue himself from death, he is unconscious for short time.

 

Force Grip: The Dark Jedi renders the opponent for short time immobile.

-> Force Choke: The Dark Jedi renders the opponent for short time immobile and takes in this time damage.

--> Force Strangle: The Dark Jedi takes the opponent in the air and strangles him to death. If the opponent can save his like, he is unconscious.

 

Force Wind: The Jedi creates a small wind, that upsets some enemies.

-> Force Twister: The Jedi creates a small twister, that lifts one enemy in the air and jolts him a little. Enemies near by getting upset.

-->Force Tornado: The Jedi creates a great tornado, that carries away both enemies and objects. The enemies in catched by this tornado are taking damage by bouncing against other things. If someone can escape this tornado, he feels so dizzily, that he shoots everywhere but not the player.

 

Force Defense :

 

Telekinesis Defense : The Jedi wards Force Push and thrown grenades.

-> Level 2 : The Jedi can award Force Push, Wind powers, Grenades and other objects.

--> Level 3 : The Jedi can reflect Pushes, Wind powers and grenades and objects.

 

Energy Defense : The Jedi can divert blastershots and Force Lightening with his Lightsaber.

-> Level 2 : The Jedi can reflect blastershots and Force Lightening with his lightsaber in the direction from where it came.

--> Level 3 : The Jedi can reflect blastershots and Force Lightening with his hands (like Yoda and Vader) and throw it back specifical against multiple enemies.

 

Well, i thought, the critical strike feat you have in KotOR 1&2 looks a little boring. So i thought of an really evil jabbing attack (dont know if its correct how i wrote it...) here is my idea:

 

Stab : The fighter jabs with his sword an enemy. He got the chance to take critical damage.

->Two Hand Stab : The fighter jabs with his sword an enemy. He got double chance to take critical damage and is much more precise.

-->Deadly Stab : The fighter first disarmes his enemy with a very cool technique, he punches him with one hand in the face and jabs at him.

--->Deathblow : The fighter grips his opponent at the neck and rams his sword or saber with all power in the torso.

 

I thought of give Jedi fighters more influence on other feats, like if I train Atton to Jedi (KotOR2) he should be a Jedi with blaster, know what I mean?

 

Force Pull combined with Stab: The Jedi pulls a enemy with the Force in this open sword.

 

Force Speed combined with Flurry : The Jedi uses his special speed and can make 50% more hits.

 

Force Jump combined with Power Attack : The Jedi jumps special high and takes resulting much more damage.

 

Force Sniper : The Jedi is more concentrated in blaster combat and has a very much higher chance to hit his enemy.

 

Force Indicate : The Jedi indicates targets from far distances.

 

Force Far Throw : The Jedi can throw grenades at enemies just when he see them.

 

Yeah, and finally, i thought, it would be great, to take really use of Force Sight. So i thought, when you spot an enemy with Force Sight through a wall or door, you can already make Force Choke or some powers at him. So you prepared your attack before walking through the door.

 

Thats it. I hope, you like my ideas. I know, the story is the most important thing in KotOR. but maybe those things can also take place...

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Those powers are nice and some, if not most, would fit well, but others are kinda overexaggerated. They're just too "uber", especially the tornado.

 

Combos are a great idea though. Who wouldn't love to force pull an enemy and stab him in mid-air?

[Enha_Dyone]

any news of K3? just read something on the net that says that the following of Knight of the old rep. is confirmed...

[dustin19]

theres been people saying stuff about kotor 3 like ign giving its prediction for it to be released in 08 but no one has confirmed a kotor 3 and LA hasnt said anything about k3 . . . heres an interview on starwarsknights.com and one of the questions is about k3 . . i dont think its a confirmation or no where around it but the reason i post the link is cuase i think the guy might no something ! ! ! what do yall think ? ? ?

chatbox interview

[Darth_Nihlus]

great ideas. i like the i dea of animation before choosing attack, like lotr return of the king, where you can watch the character do the move.....hey fellowship feats in kotor??? maybe....

 

i like the idea of having a few powers and then instead of having improved and master, you could add the point system thing you mentioned. Some of those force powers and other things sound awesome, but some seem to only work with a more hack and slash game.

 

good ideas as a whole. i wouldnt need a story if these are in there

[DAWUSS]

Don't forget a PC that will make people forget about Bastila in terms of appearance

[Omelette]

I don't know if Accept will like that idea. He's fond of Bastila.

[Sturm]

I prefered the idea of Star Maps over finding Jedi, because you didnt really know what the Star Maps were, or what they were leading to. With the Jedi its just like pfft, I dont need you and all the Jedi acted like dooches to you anyways.

[Xard]

No more lame McGuffins in my kotors please. Or if you must have them, conceal them well enough

[Yodaman]

Thanks for reading my later post. I really liked the idea of overpowered forces. And if you play Revan, its not too improbable, is it?

@Dawuss: Why forgetting Bastila? Liked her. I would really like to see her with new graphic engine, and Brianna... :excl10: :excl10: :excl10:

[Landiskan]

That interview almost made me weep in hope. Who knows!

[Darth Mortis]

What it means in simple English is that KOTOR 3 is being talked about-it could be nothing more that asking if some of the games engains for newer games could be modifyed for KOTOR. Baised on a number of things I've read I'd say its more likley that they have not started development yet, but are talking about setting a date and finding someone to make it.

ya i think they have decided to make k3 . . .there just talkin when ? and who ?

[Legend-X]

Well if they do feel the need to make another one... as long as it is just AS good as KOTORII than i am happy. I thought the storyline to the second KOTOR had alot more dark and sinister turns and the voice acting was way better. The first one, and just like with jade empire the Voice Acting was a bit hoaky.... i really hope if they do a third one they stick to just improving on alot of the third one. Better graphics... maybe a less glitchy battle system, more noodz.

[Sturm]

As good as KotOR2? Are you on crack?

If KotOR3 was to be as 'good' as KotOR2, they may as well not make it.

As people's ideas have suggested much more needs to be put in it, not what KotOR2 produced.

[LadyCrimson]

What are "noodz?"

[Guest Accept]

What are "noodz?"

After a quick search on Urbandictionary i found the word, and it was... creepy.

So what he wants is Knights of the Old Republic; The Porn Lords.

 

Can't see Lucasarts going with that idea somehow......

It'll be the KOTOR III "Restoration Project"

Nights in the Old Republic: The Porn Lords

 

just an addition

[Darth Mortis]

It seems that there will be an new Indiana Jones film out in 2008 with a computer game released around the same time as the film. And what, you may ask, does this have to do with K3? Well, I seem to recall that LA has stated that they are only going to do/release two games per year. If that is true then they are either going to do K3 for a 2008 release or we'll have to wait until 2009. This is based on the assumption that if K3 was going to be out this year they would have told us by now, of course K3 could be slated for a late 2007 release, or they might have bent the rules on the number of games they will release-they might not have included games already in development when they said 2 games-per-year.

actually i believe it was said that they would only release two star wars games a year . . . im not sure if im right so dont hold me up for that . . . if u r right then that would suck . a 09 release

[D. Kain]

I have an idea for a starting Character but first I need to know how many years are there betwen the I and III kotor's?
