Hermie Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 you have a very cool character Rp! the movie totally rocks too, now I really feel like buying Galaxies, but since I have a 64k connection, and it a monthly fee, I dont think I will be buying it anythime soon.

Reborn Outcast Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Is the monthly fee still the same as before? That was the one reason I didn't buy the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemme w/Stick Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Nice video. Sadly I dont want to pay a monthly fee to play games. If it was free I would mostly have bought it. -Clemme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topshot Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I've got a copy of Galaxies, but it'll hardly run. I tried everything to get it to play, so then I just milked it and said,"This bites!" And it looked really promising too...... That Jedi movie looked kick-butt awesome!

IG-64 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Guy, guys, guys... I warn you now... you fall for that jedi movie crap? they cut it up and change the camera angles alot those animatons are just the swordsman and polearm special moves, witch are the same thing every time you do it... fools, just look at some of the screenshots, at-ats, krayt dragons, sand crawlers, temples, you see these things not in galaxies you just sit there and kill things or dance in the cantina do not fall for the BS they feed you in that game, its no even really complete and if you think you will have "fun" think again because it's a second job, pure work, and dont even think aout being jedi unless you wan't to die from too much work fair warning brothers, do not waste money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice character RP! no, SWG is not fun and, sadly, I can't say the same for you RP, for that is composite armor and I can't really see you, composite armor used to be cool, but in reality you just have to walk down the street to find out its not because everybody has composite armor, so, rp, post your character without the armor and i'll tell you what I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpTheHotrod Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 Not really....everyone has black armor Mine green, baha. and not everyone has it. I didnt pick the most populated. And the movie isn't really showing jedi fighting styles, but some of the force powers. Also shows how smooth the animation is. and you are totally wrong on how you have to "sit" there in cantinas and etc. I work for the Imperials and have a lot of fun taking out enemy rebels with my rifle from afar. and no one sees what my guy looks like, for roleplaying's sake. Here is what he looked like before I bought the armor suit though. http://www.geocities.com/rpthehotrod/logantold.txt Just playing the game normally DOES get boring...but I'm into PvP, and that is a lot of fun.

Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 ummmm....good move on going with the armor , you kinda look liek a swamp trooper I might get the game....if i got fired and had a whole lotta time on my hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelsioN Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I was definatley gonna get SWG when I first heard of it, but then came all the bad bits. The monthly fee, then it came out in the US about 5 months before UK (that pissed me off) , and now I hear its hardly complete! IG-64, you say its boring, but it is an RPG, and they require a lot of "non-action". I may rethink my desicion later, but for now, SWG isn't going to be bought by me.

IG-64 Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 they could've at least had the fighting non-automated and maybe a little smoother, i mean, it shows him (her) do one move, then waits about 2 seconds, then does another move... BORING the automation burns my soul, picture chef: put spice in pan, turn up heat, stir, see what it makes... what chef is: open window, pick food, drag spices to blocks, press ok... BORING belive me, I could go on for hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reborn Outcast Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Guys I suggest listening to IG-64... I played the beta, and unless some serious changes have been made, the game does not have many of the Star Warsy things that I liked. I found that the whole point is pretty much boosting yourself to become good. I suggest waiting for a few more months or at least until the expansion comes out so there will be vehicles and mounts. (Correct me someone if they've already patched those in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-64 Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 amen, sometimes I forget its even star wars. there are mounts now, all they do is give the poor players some mercy, and find a way to have more CH, witch they alredy have too many now, i'm still waiting for vehicles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpTheHotrod Posted November 23, 2003 Author Share Posted November 23, 2003 Aight...can we remove ig from this thread somehow, because he is REALLY starting to piss me off. This isn't called "WHY SWG SUCKS". If you don't like it....say your thing and then that's it. You act like making stuff is a REQUIREMENT to play. No...I dont do ANY of the "boring stuff" you keep talking about. I'm a PvP Imperial bounty hunter...and I'm having a LOT of fun, thank you very much. Why won't I be a chef? Because it's boring....so I do what is fun to ME. SWG sucked hard on release, but it has really gotten better. Player cities and mounts exist in the game now, as well. At the moment, there are 100 Jedi. That's even more fun, because as a bounty hunter, I can hunt them down. There is also storylines built-in. At the moment, there were some encoded discs being found, but no one could decrypt them. Many players found several "pieces" of these messages, and used real like mathmatics to try to decode it. Some of us failing, a few people sent the encrypted messages to NASA itself and they started working on it. Eventually the code was broken and spoke of a project deadeye, and the messages were from high officers themselves. Now that we know about Project Dead eye, we can actually do something about it. The scientist (Dr. Vacca I think?) worked fro the Imperials on the project, but his home planet Alderann (Sp?) was destroyed. He's having second thoughts on continuing the project for the Imperials. Those players who wish to assist their faction (rebel or imperial) can attempt to gain the cooperation of the doctor for their faction, and finish the project. Once the project is finished, the side the doctor is for gets some sort of bonus. I'm sorry.....were you in the back room dragging and dropping, and clicking assemble? I sure wasn't.

BongoBob Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Yeah IG, that's enough. Knock it off. If you don't like it, fine, don't play it. Say your thing, then leave this thread forever. Come on now. I havn't played it, but the majority of the reviews say don't get it. I wish there wasn't a monthly fee, or else I would get it, see, if I didn't like it, say it was defective, take it back, and get a refund Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord60 Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 SWG didn't get a good rating by PC gamer and I trust them so I didn't get it . Besides I don't want to pay 15 bucks a month for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Dravis Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Besides, you have KotOR if you don't want to pay monthly fee. And remember, that game is one of the top rated RPGs of all time. And I can tell you, it is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpTheHotrod Posted November 23, 2003 Author Share Posted November 23, 2003 Aight....here's my guy without the armor. He is supposed to have a band type thing across his chest with grenades in them, but it isn't showing up on that shot for some reason. http://www.geocities.com/rpthehotrod/logantnorm.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
