I think that there should be as much customization as possible, especially now considering there aren't as many races and genders to choose from as we had all hoped. There should just be lots of server variables that control stuff like limiting colo...  [Read More]

Are you anti-choice people listening to yourselves? With full access to HSL or RGB sliders the number of possible different character customizations would be practically infinite. Obviously some people will want to stick with the same boring colours...  [Read More]

Grip and Telekinesis should be made separate. Grip causes damage only (no movement). Grip should be a Darkside only power. Telekinesis lets you move stuff about, but to make it simple, the object should stay the same distance from you as when you st...  [Read More]

I think we could have both at the same time. How about in a training room, Kyle tells you about blocking which is manual at this time. And you have to practise with one of those sphere drone laser thingies like all the kids were doing with Yoda in A...  [Read More]

I'd agree with any feature that let us see as first glance (and filter out/in) whether an MP game is intended for actual fighting or as an interesting online talky thing. Maybe a "custom" gametype where you can change the game type to anyth...  [Read More]

I (perhaps naively) trust that the way they've implemented Drain will not render Lightning redundant. If Drain was actually going to be so powerful, then why would they even bother including Lightning (which I'm sure they will keep). If Mr.Joshua is...  [Read More]

I'd like more LucasArts "gold man" action. Maybe this time he could be assaulted by a competing companies logo guy and respond by cleaving him/her in half. :P I agree with anyone who wanted physics demonstrated. Just a few seconds of a Sto...  [Read More]

I thought the Kyle and Jan storyline was ridiculous in Jedi Outcast. Love this and love that. It stinks of sexist role playing. She even gets to be rescued by her male hero. I hope she's woken up to her senses at this point in time and dumped Kyle fo...  [Read More]

I like the idea of being able to use all Force powers available. Maybe there should be a server flag that is disabled by default, but when enabled allows all players to choose from all force powers. It could be called something like "Gray Force&...  [Read More]

I'd like to be a human male in black (or if possible a brown cloak like Obi Wan with something black underneath). If possible I'd like green and yellow scythe-sabers. I would have liked being a male Twi'Lek (spelling?) but that doesn't look like it...  [Read More]

My personal policy is "no cheats until after the game is finished". Then I use them to muck about, and try out different stuff. Eg: starting off with the saber and different combos of Force powers in JO....  [Read More]

I didn't end up playing much multiplayer with Jedi Outcast, instead using cheats in the singleplayer to make my own scenarios. What disappointed me was that I had to load up the MP game to play with other Force powers. There weren't even cheats in...  [Read More]

Maybe Force Sight could actually let you visualise the Force flowing through and around living things, so the screen looks like a mix between thermal vision and DareDevil's cool sonar sort of thing. In multiplayer you would be able to discern the st...  [Read More]

They could make it so that they can specify wind vectors for different parts of the map. The wind tunnel thingies in JO could look cool. Except if done improperly, then when falling, your cloak might puff out like a parachute ;)...  [Read More]

Yeah, I thought things like skeletal animation could make a lot of that possible. It was probably too much extra work. Still, it would be really cool if, during saber fights, your cloak became more and more tattered. It wouldn't even have to be acc...  [Read More]

I would like scalable models for everything, so the game automatically gets better looking as technology gets better and better. Maybe have a target FPS rate in the options screen. I agree with everyone who wanted more races. The four or so non-huma...  [Read More]
