Good point, I never considered that. If you're using Dual or Saberstaff, what happens when you turn them off? My initial guess is that you simpy turn them both off (and hold them at your sides, just like with the single saber). The only time you'd...  [Read More]

You mean the hilt clipped to your belt? I doubt it, because unless it's revealed that you can use fists, your "default weapon" is still the saber just like JK2, thus you will either have it ignited, or in your hand unignited. However, due...  [Read More]

Yeah, hopefully a nice stream of custom Siege levels will be made, which should alleviate the sting of the lack of SP SDK. Hopefully it will be similar to the UT mod community and "Assault."...  [Read More]

Every engine has limitations. If that's what you're asking. The Q3TA engine is certainly more powerful than Sith engine. It may not have all of the same features (like the dynamic lightsaber light source) but some of those 'Missing features' seem to...  [Read More]

Who says the mod community is dead? The thing is, good mods take time. All the easy skins and saber mods have been done already. And remember that we had no official tools for JK/MotS and it took years for the editing community to get off on the ri...  [Read More]

Agreed with Dunpeel, Stormhammer, et al. Dunedain... I don't think the "backstab spamming" will be a valid complaint in JA, because not only is the move still there, but we also have FORWARD and SIDE stabs. Thus you can stab anybody prett...  [Read More]

I meant this part: Btw I thought you got the 3 saber stance after the saber was destroyed, not before it, dunno could be before but it makes more sence after (so you could choose between standard all, double *drools* or staff) Nobody ever said the...  [Read More]

I agree the JK2 SP ST Rifle sucked. The MP version was wonderful. The multiple firing modes of the ST Rifle in JK2 pretty closely aproximate what we saw in the films (accurate shots sometimes that were slow, fast inaccurate shots other times). Othe...  [Read More]

That's the thing, we have no idea if (I highly doubt) all of the kicks for the Saberstaff are identical in power to the "flip kicks" from JK2. Remember, in JK2, in addition to the 20 damage, kicks would knock the person either flat on thei...  [Read More]

Within a "few" million years, it seems a major asteroid impact is inevitable (we've been lucky so far). One of those could easily wipe us out, as it did the Dinosaurs (as we popularly theorize). If we can "branch out" with self s...  [Read More]
