if you run out of the stuff the upper left hand corner hud displays that stuff is good :p anyways I agree with the force dodge being a problem, it takes too much control away from the player. I suggest keeping the force dodge into back rolls only,...  [Read More]

I think Raven has already notice that when they were making JA; the dual sabers actually looks much more realistic in terms of wind up and saber animation speed. I guess they didn't bother improving on the single saber........  [Read More]

Few nights ago I went to watch a kendo competition, and when I booted up the JA yestarday and watching the saber movements, something was bothering me that I cant figure out.... Then it hit me today when I was playing OJP enhanced with the .5 saberA...  [Read More]

Current force usage makes the gameplay 'best jumper wins' in lightsaber combat. It causes a view far from the movies. Every bodies jumping in the air and running everywhere. Just like olympic games, many athletics with sabers hmmm instead of solvin...  [Read More]

Single saber all the way!! like Kurgan said, the stances in single saber should all be used. I dislike dual and staff sabers for the fact that while their moves look flashy, their twirling moves all take too long to complete (especially dual sabers);...  [Read More]

errrr.... I've had dat padlock idea awhile ago... but now i aint so sure about it... the locking idea do sound good, but it really doesn't do much in terms of improving the game play; all it does is remove more control from the player and let the tar...  [Read More]

ok i agree with the objection to combos, most 3rd person game involving combos will usually lead to a boring hack'n slash affair. but i think the line of thinking that we r having now is to make saber combat more moves oriented. fighting game engines...  [Read More]

being a hardcore console game addict, I like the idea that griever has, it would be a good idea if there is a movelist of sort in JA, outlining each moves adv/disadv, but currently each individual saber attack in JA, apart from the sideswipes which c...  [Read More]

for the pull up animation, why not just use the end of the straight wall run animation, where you do a forward flip and land on the top of the wall?? it looks kinda awkward even for the wall run but hey its there so why not? and as the ledge grab a...  [Read More]

I'am not so sure if this is considered a bug, but during the saber switch on animation, in which you twirl the saber while it "lights up", if you do an attack during or slightly after the animation is played, the saber attack has no wind up...  [Read More]
