As much as I want to see Coruscant, I don't want them doing it unless they can really pull it off. I'd also like to see Kashyyyk, that would be pretty cool, an entire mission taking place above the forest floor....  [Read More]

I got sick of JK2 when I got kicked off every FFA server I joined for... killing people. What's worse is that I was deliberately not taking cheap shots, I was giving people a chance, I let them take the first shot/slash... yet within 5 minutes of joi...  [Read More]

Yes, but consider that even with a weak attack with a lightsaber, if it hits your neck, you're gonna die. The effect of a lightsaber as often been equated to a warm knife through butter. Sure a more powerful strike is going to go further, but even a...  [Read More]

I'm worried about how they are adding even more special moves... Sword-Fighting isn't Pro-Wrestling, there is no reason why jumping upside down should cause unblockable fatal damage when a slash to the neck merely knocks off a few health points. The...  [Read More]

Well character generation is a fundamental to the classic CRPG as KotOR is slated to be. Additionally the screenshots of the saber combat look similar to the KotOR screenshots, inclusion of dual-lightsabers. The ability to choose "quests/mission...  [Read More]

As far as i'm concerned, they can do what they like with the multiplayer saber system provided it remains balance. But I don't want to see a repeat of Guns vs Sabers like in JK2. I played JK and JK2 for Full Force Guns, its what I like, and its what...  [Read More]

I generally take the view that a sequel (in gaming) should be an evolved and improved version of the original. To make a sequel for JK2 into a CBOM game wouldn't be evolution, it would be starting from scratch. I'm all for a Star Wars Team/Squad Obje...  [Read More]
