  1. Well, JK2 is set just before the Vong invasion. So even if there were a JK3, it would either have to be set in the past or after the Yuuzhan Vong war in a changed galaxy. Maybe not a full on war with the Vong but some Vong enemies would be a challenge. Traitor & Destiny's Way Spoilers (spoiler tags aren't working) * * * * * * * * * * * * Technically they CAN be felt through the Force. Using a radio comparison, you can pick up different things on different wavelengths. The Vong are just on a different wavelength. The Dark Side thing is still something I'm getting used to. Unreasoning anger now leads to the Dark Side, but if the anger is reasonable and a natural emotion (i.e. Luke being angry at Vergere for inflicting pain on Jacen) it's positive. [/spoilers] * * * * * * * * * End Spoilers Simple. Remember the original trilogy? The whole Rebel Alliance (now the New Republic) and Imperial War? The Empire had all the weapons. They would have anihilated the Vong. Completely. The NR was still getting on it's feet, it's just been over 20 years since they defeated the Empire, and they've been in power even less. There were a lot of rebellions, Imperial and otherwise, which had their attention.
  2. Pah, you have it easy here. Try moderating an official Star Wars site with over 4,000,000 members.

  4. Actually I prefer it the way it is. It gives the impression that they are clumsy saber fighters, which they are, and besides Bounty Hunters use blasters.

  6. Good advice. Thanks. I only included that text to describe the splash. It's not on the one I'll have on my site.
  7. Things are looking up. The AotCTC FMV shots look great and a few new models and maps (Mos Eisley Beta to be precise) have re-newed my interest. Good job!
  8. Very few people liked the NJO one. Damn, I was going for a colorful, tripped out style. http://www.csn.ul.ie/~chrislad/banner/residentevil.jpg Before you say it's grainy etc, it's supposed to be. It is Resident Evil.

  10. And the constant threads bitching about 1.03, 1.04, DFA, Red Stance, Backstab, Cheating, Bugs in the game and so on and so forth wouldn't have had the same effect regardless of this thread? No one is disputing the game itself. Obviously if you are posting here, you are still playing it. This thread is looking at the future (or lack thereof, for some people) of the game. He's from NYC as it plainly says under his avatar.
  11. Han was a member of the Imperial Acadamy. He rescued Chewie from an Imperial officer, who ordered Han to kill him. Chewie then gave Han a life debt. Yadda, yadda, yadda. Now regarding EU. You are incorrect, whoever stated that most people think it's poodoo. The EU is generally well liked. It's sanctioned and approved by Lucas and Lucasbooks/Lucasarts and Lucasfilm. That's a lotta Lucas. While it is true that some of the early EU has since been discarded (The main brunt of it being Owen Lars as Obi Wan's brother and Boba Fett's history), there is still a lot of it that fits into the Star Wars timeline. However there is one general rule. In terms of canon (ie what take more importance in the event of a conflict), the movies prevail. If the EU says something, and the movie contradicts it, the movie is correct. No matter what. If you look at it this way. Palpatine was never mentioned in the original Star Wars, nor was the Sith, yet both appeared in the EU novel, albeit indirectly, Splinter of the Minds Eye. Does this mean Palpatine is EU? From a certain point of view, yes. All that matters in context of the timeline continuity is the movies. Anything else that interferes with that is secondary. The NJO for example is all good as it takes place 20 years after RotJ so there's not much conflict. The EU has no bearing of any further movies though.
  12. Yes, I'm aware of this. I've already edited my bots to make them very fast, very accurate but they are still somewhat predictable. I was actually going to release the bot files for a tougher challenge to those not fortunate enough to be able to play online. On a related note, I can do some reviews for mods/files/etc if needed.
