agreed. at least their making the lightsaber more than a simple weapon. of course, i'm quite curious to see how large the upcrystals.2da is going to be. not to mention any kind of new .2da file for the focus lens, power cell, etc. sounds like those could be quite massive.

yes Dooku's sytle is in the mix he uses Form II. As you can see in X Fighter's ost. I prefer Form 3 and 4. Four just sounds awesome to see in a game, plus if i were a jedi it seems like it would be more fun to fly around the doin flips and such ... Not that lightsaber combat should treated like a game or anything....:D

Just saw this at the OE boards.....

Some time will pass in K2 before you can get your lightsaber. This is done intentionally, to make you feel like you earned it - and once you have it, it is one of the best weapons in the game.

 

We felt that by working at finding the pieces to make one, it would end up being a much more personal quest when it was finally in your possession. So if you find yourself struggling for it, keep it mind that it will make when you get it feel all the sweeter.

 

What we wanted to avoid was the excess of lightsabers that showed up in Episode 2 and in K1, which we were worried would diminsh the blade's uniqueness as well. So we opted for making them rarer and cooler, and we hope the overall effect will come out well.

 

Anyway, more rambling - all done.

Finding pieces, much better than the wave you're hand & poof a saber trick.

That is kinda what I figured the PC's personal saber quest would be. I believe that is what the Emitter / Lens / Power Cell is going to be the components for the saber, this would also allow the existance of some components having innate bonuses. I can see the workbench getting a heck of a workout in TSL. :D

Because they're so common! Laws of the market my friend.

 

See, Lightsaber Inc. sold 3,566 units allowing them to lower the price of their lightsabers so it will allow them to be more affordable to the common user. In the end, more customers=more profits.

 

However, Mandalorian Corp could only sell 5 Mandalorian Assault rifles. Their profit marging is really low which keeps the prices high. Their popularity among the general populace also isn't great. Prefering to use lighsabers, they turned their attention away from excellent blasters causing prices to explode.

 

However, Obsidian Entertainment has declared that blasters will be more useful. If they are succesful, prices for blasters will go down and the lightsaber's value will decline. People will go back to an easier to wield weapon and leave the lightsaber for a good old blaster.

 

That is unless the Vibroblade makers get involved.
