Irrelevant drivel!

 

They say they can make the Quake 3 engine do all kinds of fancy stuff, but I'm not convinced. Surely there are better engines out there?

No it's not, it's the long deviations.

 

Actually it is:

 

...just make sure you're adding something to discussion rather than posting one-liner comments...

My bad. Sorry.

My bad. Sorry.

Now you're doing it again! You're posting one-liners again!

 

(you'll notice how this post is slyly made up out of two sentences..., three if you take this one into account as well... )

Anyway. Back to the topic at hand. I think I've seen all the screen shots now. And given the Quake III engine, it does look p[retty impressive. Though I wonder what specs you're going to need to run it at all decently.

Probably the same requirements as Quake III, Elite Force, Mohaa, JK II, ... basically it should run on most computers, since that engine is very adaptable.

 

Fighting with double sabers or two sabers is really fun. A week ago an old buddy visited and we fought a few hours with all the possible combinations. (1 saber against 2, double against two sabers, ... against two double sabers, ...). Using the Yoda model distracted him the most, cause he always had to duck to get me

That model is a definate killer, especially if you also use force-speed

Ha, I tied the spawn command to a key and spawned about 40 Reborn to fight at the same time when I was first trying out level building in JK2

 

The weird thing was, I actually survived most times

Meaning?

 

-Well each time I pressed that key a Reborn was 'spawned' at this position, that started going after me. So it was just me and 40 bots .... oh, yeah and the force

By the way, how many single player enhancements are there... I've found a few models, but I've been unable to find a doublebladed saber thus far...

I don't think there are any, not in terms of dual sabers etc etc.

So far the screens i have seen look great.

The screens certainly look great.

yes especially the rancor screen.

I can hardly wait.

Its going to be fun when it ships!

But would someone tell me how a measly Jedi apprentice can wield dual lightsabers, when a Jedi master (read: jedi council) cannot?

Things were diffrent in the old republic.

Old Republic ? I thought this was about JK III, which is happening a bit before the NJO timeframe.

 

I read, that you could construct a dual-saber, or a second, after you advanced to another rank.

Igor said something about the Jedi council.

I dont think you can at first Igor. I think you have to move up in rank in the game to use them, though I may be wrong.

Yeah, but it's not by very much.

 

Well, now it's out, and you really should have completed it having tried out all the fp's by now, what do you guys think? Highly moddable i'm thinking.

Yup, maybe I'll publish the Chiss skin I modified.

 

I also tried to bring the Exar Kun saber handle into the game, but something didn't work yet

 

Well, after completing it on both sides, I can only say that I won't use the two sabers again, the double saber is all I need

Yeah, the kata (sp) for the double bladed saber is rather lethal.

I've completed it on both sides too. Did Kenobi say that the easy way is only leading to the dark side? Well I think, completing it as a dark jedi is much harder, than joining the light side. If you are choosing the dark side, you must battle everybody! That's not fair

 

The games engine is too old for the job. The characters faces were ugly, and Luke face on the briefing and debriefing screen is simply idio.. well, funny

The storyline was interesting, but that Tavion (or whatever is the name) is a very typical stereotype of the 21st century's entertainment "garden". A supermodel, superstrong, supermartialartist, superevil Femme fatale. An evil b*tch Not really scary or realistic at all. What do you think, hmm?

Ah it's not that bad when you look at it as an add-on for JKII which is what it really is.

Well, yes. That's what it is. Not more, not less..
