I like the stumbling idea, that could be used in parries as well, instead of the knockback, just a thought. On another note, how customizable is the saber lock animations, cause someone had an idea about using the directional keys to pushthe blade...  [Read More]

well i just got finished play MB2 for the first time, and i got some ideas. How about you use that defensive offensive mode they implemented. You hold down block and you go to walking speed, defense goes up, etc etc. Also you could use the stamina...  [Read More]

You shouldnt be judging dodge if its a free escape that you dont have to worry about applying, unless its skillfully used it should just be a "thank god, i thought i was screwed" sort of thing. And by slowed down i mean the bar, the dodge...  [Read More]
