Nevets Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I was looking at the heroes annouced so far, and was very surprised to find no yoda, or even a luke skywalker. This leaves the empire with Palpy, Vader, and Mara Jade. All either jedi or force users. The rebels have Obi-wan, way past his prime. Even tho I am pro imp, this games seems to be leaning heavily towards imperial. Superweapons, more jedi, and assumingly more planets at start. Guess we will need to wait and see how this turns out.

Havok9120 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 They also have Katarn...who is Force Sensitive even if hes not a Jedi at star. And just wait till release...petro needs some secrests lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just wait till release...petro needs some secrests lol Problem with Katarn is that during the time period he wouldn't be able to use the force, he wont know for years that he is force sensitive, where as Mara has been exposed to the force at this point. It doesn't sound like Petro will allow you to train characters either, looks like what you see it what you get. I hope there is a mod tho that will allow you to train Kyle and Leia as jedi since they are both force sensitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havok9120 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Yea, thatd be good. One thing you need to remember is that Katarn had no teacher. Now Kenobi is back in action. And we can change the lore, thats the point. And Yoda may still be 'round somwhere, Dago is in afterall, and we found that pic with a statue of som1 from his race with a lightsaber...

lordstorm88 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 from my experience in dark forces II:jedi knight, kyle had a teacher... who gets beheaded in the opening video. lol Yoda was hiding during that period, and did nothing other than train luke pretty much. now I'm pretty sure that if han solo is in, luke is going to be in too. and maybe, just maybe, he'll be trained by yoda on dagobah even if the technology is up to star wars episode 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Admiral Thrawn 889 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 well we'll have to wait and see but it would be great if Yoda was in if we can change the history that means that we could send Luke. Han, Kyle and Chewie to Dagobah to convince him to come out of EXile and aid the Rebellion. http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n292/Admiral_Antilles/Thrawncopy.jpghttp://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3269/pffuserbar2globalmodnx9.jpg I Support the Resistance!

Darth Vader Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I wonder if there will be yoda, maybe in future, after all is the only one that can contrast palpatine - I have you now! - Obi-wan never told you what happened to your father... - If you only knew the power of the Dark Side... - Evacuate?In Our Moment of Triumph?*BOOM*"Visit Spriters Resource at their new home!"

Phantom_pff Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Echuu may be in, he joined the Rebellion for a short time near the beginning of the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Admiral Thrawn 889 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 yeah he may be but Echuu was really just created for use in that game and it cant be that soon in to the Rebellion cause Leia was at least 18-9 and the rebellion started when the senators all met up but were trying to work within the system for 15 years? that make anysense to anyone else. did they think that Palpy would die of old age before he got to powerful? http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n292/Admiral_Antilles/Thrawncopy.jpghttp://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3269/pffuserbar2globalmodnx9.jpg I Support the Resistance!

Mcas1937 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 The game does start at the begining of the Rebel Alliance, which was founded two years prior to the Battle of yavin, by forming the three largest Anti-empire groups into one. -Many that live deserve death. And some die that deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then be not too eager to deal out death in the name of justice, fearing for your own safety. Even the wise cannot see all ends. J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord Of the Rings-Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom.General George Patton Jr-Cool game being made a high school student, I recommend checking it out. http://www.spacedoutgame.com/Matt CastleMCAS1937@yahoo.comhttp://kevan.org/brain.cgi?Matt%20Castle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foshjedi2004 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Thanks to the Corellian Treaty organised by Corellian Senator Garm Bel-Iblis who surprise surprise IS NOT IN THE GAME.

Delphi-PG Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Nope, not unbalanced. Obi-Wan is far more powerful than you think. Also, heroes are meant to be used in combos with other units. You can use them individually, but don't expect to wipeentire armies with one guy. Mara and Katarn are not considered Jedi in our game.

Nevets Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hmm mara should be able to control the force somewhat since she was raised by the emperor at birth. Yoda should be in, because dagobah is in, I mean what is the point of dagobah without yoda, his hut is even shown in one of the screenshots. Plus even tho he wasn't in a new hope, obi wan might decide to go get his help early. awww no jedi training? so even if luke is in, he wont be a jedi than either.I wonder if anyone will be able to mod this in, to make obi wan, yoda, paply and vader able to train luke, leia, kyle and mara into jedi.

I hardly think it was the training of jedi ruined GB, if anything it was one of its few strong points. and just wait till the clone wars expansions, jedi everywhere But I think the training of some slect jedi in this game wouldn't hurt. Maybe reduce their hp a bit to the point that they single handly can't fight a battle (like delphi said) but they enchance your army by leading it.

Zer_Teron Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 You realize that Luke is 15-16 in this time period, and is stuck on Tatooine http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn2008 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hmmm... You would think that Luke would be in this game... I dont see why not. It's odd that didnt add him to the hero list. I mean the second trilogy focuses on him redemming his father. I'm suprised they didnt go ahead and add Yoda. But I guess its because he went into "exile". Of course in episode iii Yoda tells Obi Wan that they will have to remain in hiding until the time is right. So if Obi comes out of hiding, why cant Yoda? It will be intereasting to see how this turns out. http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3269/pffuserbar2globalmodnx9.jpg> Petroglyph Forums Moderator> LucasForums Moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't that many of them! That's my point, it's unrealistic. If you have hundreds of Jedi that all enhance your army, the game would be dumb!
