TSR Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 yeh, the award shotgun isnt much different, exept its more powerful, which being a shotgun it would kill anyone with one hit if you hit them properly anyway. The beam rifle can go through enemys (thus causing 1 hit kills) but has a much shorter range, which is quite a let down as it is meant to be a SNIPER rifle
deamonomic Posted December 17, 2005 Author Posted December 17, 2005 i did mean Ki-Adi-Mundi..... so if he can use the force as a sort of shield as you made it seem that all jedi can do why is he now dead?
Fate's Decision Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 (sugg: you don't have to quote all of the previous post. We all know what you're talking about. If it's a long post, it could be appropriate to only quote the part of it that you want to reply to. And quoting a quote of somebody who's quoting you...man if I ever see one of those again...) A jedi is pretty much like spiderman. And the engineer shotgun has few shots and is very widespread.
deamonomic Posted December 18, 2005 Author Posted December 18, 2005 im talking about close range! like 1 foot away. and not only is the jedi blocking it its bouncing back at me!!
hk47 Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 this is about jedi not spiderman(but your right)
MachineCult Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Spiderman pwnz. Pointless post, delete.
Zai Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 i did mean Ki-Adi-Mundi..... so if he can use the force as a sort of shield as you made it seem that all jedi can do why is he now dead? Because Jedi are not infallible. I would suspect that it was a combination of his trust in the loyalty of the clones, the fact that he was in the middle of a battle and was unfocused/concentrating on his enemy and perhaps even Darth Sidious was using the force to assist in masking the clones intentions to kill the Jedi. Of course, I am not the all knowing sage of star wars.
PoiuyWired Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 Well, actually there are things Jedis can't block with his sabers technically... 1) a Flashlight. Yes, its basically a wide beam of light, yet it works on Jedis. 2) EMP attacks... these things can go thru walls w/o damaging it, and will probably shot out the 'sabers. Though the EMP gun in BF2 is nerfed and can't pass thru walls or anything.
deamonomic Posted December 20, 2005 Author Posted December 20, 2005 now that makes sense. but how can a jedi block a shot gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean cmon! its a chot gun.yo can just hold a sword in one positon and hope to possible stop a shot gun. moving maby... if your quick enough. but if your just holding it in on position then ur dead
ET Warrior Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Pointless post, delete. Despite the fact that his post was, infact, pointless, your post was just as much spam as his was. If you have qualms like that you can use the nifty report post link or just PM a moderator to take care of it in the future. ahthankyou.
JediMaster Fleg Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Jedi can block projectiles using not only their light sabers but by using the force. Eg, Vader blocks Han Solo's blaster shot with merely his hand on Bespin in ESB. vader has blaster resistent gloves & armor.
JediMaster Fleg Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 when ki-adi-mundu was attacked by his troops the cis was also attacking from behind
deamonomic Posted December 20, 2005 Author Posted December 20, 2005 but all the shots that killed him came from the front. if jedi are as good as hes making them out to be then only the shots from behind should have killed him.
Fate's Decision Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 Theories: A) The shotgun beams are attracted to the lightsaber B) The Jedi is blocking so fast you are unable to notice! QOO! C) There really isn't a jedi there, just millions of magnets on a monitor that resemble one. And more that resemble shotgun shots. Then, they shift. This is my best guess for this weirdness.
MachineCult Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 deamonomic, yes one or two would get through, but they don't in this game.
JohnLocke Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 The best way I can think to describe it, is to think of the Force/Jedi blocking like the droideka's shield. But it's less powerful than that because the droideka can block everything, including mines, rockets, etc. It's just there until it's power/time expire. So in that sense, it doesn't surprise me that the Jedi can block shotguns. It's more like a shield than just simply blocking them with their sabres.
Redtech Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Well, if we had the MODDING TOOLS we could find that one out perfectly. It's probably an invisible force as mentioned before, that's triggered by a "lighsabre block" animation.
Fate's Decision Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 I still stand with my magnets, but how would modding tools help?
zerted Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Modding tools would let you 'see' all the invisible textures in the game. They are used for many things like preventing people from walking through, preventing weapon fire from passing through, preventing vehicles from going by and other things. However, I don't think a map modding tool would let us see the results of a player pressing block. I think RedTech is saying, when you press the block button, an invisible texture is created infront of the Jedi which blocks/reflects all incoming fire. The tools would let us see this texture. Because the Jedi block ingame, I don't think the tools would display this texture (as it is not during a game).
Fate's Decision Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Oy, bot we ye goinnuh ge moddn tuos eh?
Redtech Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Nope, I'm not Scottish. To answer ye question, "dunno".
