Darth_Terros Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 http://www.starwars.com/databank/location/kamino/?id=eu (See the bottom paragraph.) Yeah dont worry seen from bf2 didnt think that was canon but seems it is lol
PoiuyWired Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 well, So technically there can be rogue clones out there still...
Justus Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 well, So technically there can be rogue clones out there still... In the Star Wars universe, anything is possible.
MachineCult Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 well, So technically there can be rogue clones out there still... lol, yeah all the original clones are probably dead.
ChAiNz.2da Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 In the Star Wars universe, anything is possible.yeah, Jar Jar "making the cut" and being in all 3 "pre" movies is proof of that...
PoiuyWired Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 I wish they make a canon EU of "Death of Jar Jar" Make it long, bloody and slow... I would totally buy that :3
St. Jimmy Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 I wish they make a canon EU of "Death of Jar Jar" Make it long, bloody and slow... I would totally buy that :3 Amen to that! ('can't belive I used to like that retarded thing)
Redtech Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Perverts. Oh yeah, O/T, The clones rock. I suppose it's because they actually act like soldiers and are a lot more "realistic" compared to our attitudes on war. For example, a Swat Team would own Tantive 4 better than Stormies. Why? Shotguns and flash/frag grenades. The way I see it, Episode 4+ was created when Buck Rogers was cool, but Episodes 1-3 were created when the War on Terror is a common source of entertainment, and it leaks into the way millitary units are designed, even into concept art and the way people "do" things.
TK-8252 Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 For example, a Swat Team would own Tantive 4 better than Stormies. Why? Shotguns and flash/frag grenades. The Stormtroopers were ordered to do the least amount of damage to the ship possible, considering that the DS plans could be anywhere. So that'd be a no to shotguns or grenades.
Redtech Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 Right, so when has shooting with BLASTERS meant minimal damage? There's some nasty property damage with burnmarks and a decent explosion when the door blows up, if I recall. Anyway, Flash grenades aren't destructive. In-out, BAM! They can't hear or see. And shotguns are efficient when the target is gawping at you with a stupid helmet on. Guess I should design a Star Wars "gore" mod then.
General Solo Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 The EP3 Clone Troopers were awesome and I must say that they are badass.
Redtech Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Do they HAVE shotguns? Well, in Star Wars EU, shotguns exist, mainly to fill the sterotype that every FPS must have a pistol, machine gun, heavy machine gun, sniper rifle and shotgun. *yawn* As for Swat Teams: http://www.specialoperations.com/Domestic/SWAT/swatweapons.html I will quote selectively.Shotguns are employed for numerous different uses in SWAT. Shotguns are very versatile weapons and for that reason are favored by entry teams. Buckshot rounds may be used for several different purposes. Shotgun uses include using special breaching rounds to breach door hinges and locks, using gas rounds to launch tear gas into structures, and even using flares in nighttime operations. The most common breaching technique is to use a pistol-gripped shotgun with special magnesium "TKO" round that will disentegrate on impact.
St. Jimmy Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Well, in Star Wars EU, shotguns exist, mainly to fill the sterotype that every FPS must have a pistol, machine gun, heavy machine gun, sniper rifle and shotgun. *yawn* What would be cool is if they fired laser shots rather than bullets
Redtech Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I do agree. I'm thinking more "chunky" shots, rather than stacco 'blips' of machine gun fire.
j-muny Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I like the clone troopers better. I think they are better developed than the storm troopers of the original series. They have way more variations in color, uniforms etc. and just the whole idea of a complete army of clones kind of fascinates me.
General Solo Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 1 thing that is funny in BF2 is that 1 stormtrooper was saying that darth vader bought all of us better armor and weapons. And when i played as a stormtrooper the weapons weren't as good as the clone troopers. (I know SWB2 isn't suppose to be mentioned in here but I just wanted to bring it up).
Redtech Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Yeah, interesting no? Actually could argue that technology advances slowly, but backwards??
Fealiks Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 The 501st Leigon troopers from EPIII are better than in the original trilogy, the look WAY cooler, and they absolutely own. The troopers on Kashyyk in EPIII look so cool! :D:D
Redtech Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 Yeah, fighting a war does mean fighting like solders (with cammo, decent aim etc) is REALLY useful.
darthzeta Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 ok. Stormtroopers are clones troopers. the weapons have upgraded with the armour so armour looks weak. but hey if the clones fought the stormies the stormies would have won. i have played game simulaters and stormies kick ass on land. the air well ties where meants to swarm you and take you out in numbers. clones where transports and had jedi on thier side. and well jangos dna did not get destroyed. their was boba fett the same genetic code. he also did not die on tatooine as lots of people believe. read the star wars dictionary. its explains a lot to you guys
Redtech Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 *Yawn* Well I've clocked up 20,000 hours in combat simulation and I can beat a Stormtrooper in Arm Wrestling, spot the sarcasm. The Clones were based on Jango, in film, they were played by millitary personal, hence their excellant and realistic combat skills. In the other films, the stormies were played by people off the street, for all intents and purposes, and they couldn't aim for crap.
darthzeta Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 ok. every time you see a stormie shoot thier was a jedi around right? yes old ben he could have fogged thier vesion sence they where weak minded and could be swayed in the ways of the force. when thier wasnt jedi around they had good shots and kicked ass.
Redtech Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Explain Episode 3 then. Heck, in Geonosis, many Jedi were owned by droids!
boinga1 Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 ok. every time you see a stormie shoot thier was a jedi around right? yes old ben he could have fogged thier vesion sence they where weak minded and could be swayed in the ways of the force. when thier wasnt jedi around they had good shots and kicked ass. That still can't explain the overall lack of quality shown by stormtroopers on Endor, Cloud City, or other parts of the Death Star. It's probable that, in the 18 years between Episode III and IV, the army was weakened to some extent, allowing typical flesh-and blood recruits and conscripts with less training than the old clones. If the first Death Star had not been destroyed, Palpatine probably could have stayed in control with merely that weapon. The fact that the army was not brought up to step between IV and VI, to me, seems to indicate that Palpatine basically underestimated the Rebellion and refused to see it as the threat it truly was.
