christrek705 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I don’t know about all of you but I really want the red DFA back. I know they put it in, but its hard to do. The DFA was in jk2 was one of the signature moves along with blue and yellow. But blue and yellow DFA’s where not as popular. What I’m trying to say is DFA needs to stay, and don't even get me started about kick, that also needs to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Yes, because cheap, abusive, repetive moves that make gameplay extremely boring and cheesy are such a good thing to have in a video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kataarn Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I agree with both of them, seeing as how it's really simple to dodge them both now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I like the new DFA in JA better, because you can't spam it. If you don't like it, can't help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EekTheKat Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 It's not *that* hard to do. In fact it seems easier to do now after some practice adjusting to how it works in JKA vs JK2. Kinda fun going from a meditate sitting position straight into a DFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master William Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 This is not jk2, stop it, stop it, stop it... Just do it the same way you do the yellow DFA in JK2 and JA, you will see it is very easy once you master it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sokar Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 DFA is forward+jump+attack. It was the uber move in JO 1.02, but it's pretty much usless now. I've got one kill with it ever because my target was standing still. No idea what the damage value is anymore either, but before, it was damn near 100pts.

Darth_G33K Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I like how it is now. Spamming DFA and the two backstab/slashes got boring to play against. I like the fact that the katas and DFA type moves take a bit of force juice. I may be a minority though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sokar Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Revan, the fact that specials require force mana to execute is probably one of the best ideas yet for this game. In fact, it was an EXCELLENT idea. And for those who can't counter? They aren't trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g//anarki Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I find red DFA easier to do now. Getting rid of that mid-swing jump+forward was a good move by Raven since now red DFAs are harder to predict. Almost every time someone would start a red swing in JK2, you'd know that they were about to try a DFA so you'd get out of the way but now it's more of a suprise, but it's harder to land it. Making the specials consume force was also a very good move (although logically it doesn't make sense) because now, even NF players will have to learn how to manage their force pools (unless the server you're on has g_forceregentime set to 0 or something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemme w/Stick Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Why cant ppl just stop whining and accept the game the way it is? If you dont like the game as it is now, go back to playing JO. I'm sorry for seeming angry or mad, but I'm really tired of hearing ppl whine all the time . Deal with the game the way it is, or dont play it at all. Once again I must apoligize for seeming mad or angry. -Clemme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemme w/Stick Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Originally posted by Clemme w/Stick Once again I must apoligize for seeming mad or angry. I would like to quote myself on this one. You saw this? This means that it wasnt to offend anyone. But for future reference plz put "Attention Raven" in your thread titles. That way you should be able to stay clear of us non-whiners, and we can stay clear of the whiners . How does that sound? -Clemme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I dunno what's wrong with you ppl... I've plaied for 2 hours straight with the single saber and I've kicked a couple of butts with it. I used DFA as well as all other moves available to me. Ok so DFA is weaker now... big deal, you dont have a one hit kill move anymore. Is it useless though? Not by a long shot. Fer pete's sake just play the game and get over the fond memories you have of a cheesy one hit kill move. You'd expect people to learn all the new cool stff Raven included i nthis game...but no... you still want your JO expansion pack...so be it...your loss mates.

Flashblade Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 Oh I m going to make enemys here probably . Throw the red stance out of the window its so pathetic!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 It aint useless, i've got quite a few kills with it lately, 2 last night with alot of other LFers and 1 today Practice, man. This aint Jk2, adapt or die. Also, i'm sure there are plenty of other threads which only needed a simple bump to add to the issue, the only seriously useless move is Yellow finisher.. notice it's my opinion, I am not demanding a patch either. Also Red Stance is not useless, i use it equally with yellow and it's a very good stacne for dealing with dual saber users (so's light actually) It has a decent kata move and the dfa can catch people out and does around 50-75 damage. I think you should go get a base for your hate on red before you start preaching that it should be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aValanche Posted September 28, 2003 Share Posted September 28, 2003 I don't want anything to be changed yet. No kick, no nerfing, nothing (except technical stuff). I played a couple hours of tffa (FINALLY found a server) last night and I thought the saber was very well balanced. Okay, at least the double and dual were. The guys on top with the high scores just kept spamming the dual ATK+ALT ATK saber shield move but after seeing me and a couple others kill them by doing the roll-stab it became less effective as they started doing it. One thing that bugs me is that half the time when I would roll-stab those people it'd only take away their armor and not kill them! Oh well, I'd rather it stay exactly like this than risk them overpowering something trying to fix it - like the backstab in JO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
