Yeah, that'd be great...however, I'm going to be happy just being able to USE two sabers and the lightstaff (my favourite). The other thing would just be a cool plus...I shouldn't have sounded like I thought it was so essential. But it WOULD be great...  [Read More]
Chaaaaaaaaaang!! Got a question for you and the guys and gals of Raven. Are you possibly toying with the thought of being able to deactivate and reactivate sabers? What I mean is, for example, with the lightstaff, will we be able to deactivate one en...  [Read More]
I'm guessing that no Jedi has picked up a blaster besides Kyle...since Luke did. ;) I mean, keeping a pistol with you...that's not a bad thing, just in case something happens and you're unable to use the Force, and your lightsaber is out of commissio...  [Read More]
I think that it would be fairly nifty if you could break out of a saberlock with a swift backhand/other punch, or a knee to your enemy's chest, or headbutt...or something. That would spice up the combat a bit. :) Kinda like what Qui-Gon Jinn did in E...  [Read More]
Emon: You're absolutely right. JK3 is a first person shooter. I actually have yet to see an RPG that has good game physics (unless you play White Wolf games table top like I do...you can create your OWN physics ;)). I hope JK3 doesn't turn out to be...  [Read More]
You see, I believe that it would be a beautiful sort of...tac-on to the engine for JK3. But that doesn't mean the game won't kick complete, utter butt just because it might not be in there. Hell...I don't NEED ragdoll physics in a game to like it. It...  [Read More]
Yeah, that would actually be pretty cool...if not a tad too realistic. HOWEVER...there could be a violence meter. You could tone the violence down...accept for the fact that Star Wars isn't a hack and slash universe filled with gore and guts. I want...  [Read More]
Originally posted by Emon Dark Cloak, my idea of the complex physics isn't what's wrong, it was the use of the term "ragdoll physics" since that's supposed to be for ragdoll models when the player is dead. Nooo no babe. I wasn't trying t...  [Read More]
Eh, I'd rather go ahead and agree with Emon about ragdoll physics. I don't think they'd be useless at all. He's probably right about those types of physics...ragdoll...creating sabre rebounds and whatnot on the fly. It WOULD make things more interest...  [Read More]
Oh, don't get me wrong. It's nifty. I KNOW how to use it. I used it to win the duels I won when I first played JK2 online. It was kinda like I was using Iaido. Or something...yeah. ;) But I'd just sidestep, swivel and backstab. Easy. The red stance,...  [Read More]
Originally posted by C'jais There's no point in even make a single saber an option Actually...while you have a good point there, I really don't make much use of red stance and backstabbing. They're not as fast and furious...two of the things that...  [Read More]
*hops* Why do you hope single saber has advantages? it's like...not supposed to. Wouldn't the idea behind have two sabers and a double bladed one be that those are MORE advantageous? I like single saber, too...but balance isn't everything....  [Read More]
Well hey, if the dualblade and dual sabers are going to be more powerful...perhaps it will force the single saber people to have to rely on skill rather than random blocking. You know, just moving the mouse around and autoblocking everything. I perso...  [Read More]
And sorry for the double post, truely...but what about dead limbs? Locational limb damage...such as, let's say a leg is blasted to bits. The stormtrooper or the player, for that matter, has to drag that dead limb behind them as a handicap. Might make...  [Read More]
So...how come ragdoll physics is a "maybe", Mike? I'm fairly sure I understand a little bit...like...I don't know if the Quake3 engine supports it, or how hard it would be to add that type of game physics. What about interacting with real w...  [Read More]
*HOPS!* Thank you VERY much, Wacky_Baccy. :) :) :) Incredible!!...  [Read More]
I wanna see those screenshots at full resolutiooooon!!! There was one link in here that claimed to have them, but only went to a blank index site...nothing there but the parent directory link. :( Anybody else have them? I want to analyize them in Pho...  [Read More]
One more question...and then bed. It's 5:11 AM...are the screens posted the only ones in the magazine? I'm...kinda remembering someone said they weren't. Or something....  [Read More]
Exactly. I doubt this is a hoax. Whether or not it is an expansion remains to be seen. My guess is that it's the actual game. Yes, the focus of the Dark Forces series has been on Kyle Katarn, but that doesn't mean that he has to take the spotlight th...  [Read More]
Dang. Now I'm arguing like a guy. See what you made me do?? j/k (no pun intended). ;) You're right, CreepingDeathNL... we'll see... *pause...blink* ... Shouldn't I...like...laugh evily now...or something? But...yes. Can anybody vouch for the authent...  [Read More]
It's impossible to say with complete confidence that this is a hoax without hearing anything official from Raven (unless I've missed something...haven't read the article...can't read German). What I mean is, big names associated with Raven declaring...  [Read More]
I can see that. I mean...it's a cool engine. It has the ability to be reworked completely (or at least to a point). About the dynamic lighting, though...um...yeah...I don't think it's gonna be happening, unless Raven bumps the thing up a few notches....  [Read More]
Aaaah, cool. I wish I could get that magazine here. I always pick up CGW and PC Gamer every month. Speaking of which, I wonder if they're going to have any bits about this in their magazines. It would be interesting, I think....  [Read More]
So why exactly do you male people *cackles* smell BS? Just like guys. Just...argue, argue, argue...instead of just waiting for an issue to take shape. I'm willing to make a guess that several people may already be making monetary bets on whether or n...  [Read More]

Okay...I saw the 12:01 showing of Attack of the Clones last night...I just have to say...that oh my GOD...YODA! Yoda is da MAN! Holy ******* ****! Hmm...although I wish he could have been a muppet...I still loved the way he was done...just...just...t...  [Read More]
