Eiganjo Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Yeah, I pre-ordered it. I should have it in a couple of days. I'm so excited. I have never played it before, since my parents won't even let me buy an XBox with my own money. But i have heard a lot of it even before they made it for PC, so I can't wait.
Trex Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 One of the things that really bugged me about the xbox version (although i loved it) was the lack of physical character customization. You could only select from six different models and couldn't change the costumes. I know the ability to costume change was something bioware weren't able to finish in time for the release date, so does anyone know if either of these have been improved or included?
Ghost Down Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Hey, I just bought the game and it is awsome! Looks really nice and all. But I got a question. Do you have some usefull tips on how to use the White Demon style. So far I've been getting my butt kicked while using. It is pretty slow.. - Ghost Down
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 Try using the heavenly Wave style with it, and when you level up, make the style faster instead of powerfull, then you are ready for some @$$kicking.
Ztalker Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Hmm.. Saw it at the local gameshop, for +/- 40 Euro's, whereas normal games cost about 60. Nice price, i'd say. It even comes with metal casing Going to pick it up in 3 weeks, whe I get my next paycheck...
Ghost Down Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Well, I just finished the game. And I was rather disappointed by the good ending. But maybe that is cause I'm more of an evil guy. Hehe.. There where some interesting plot revelations though. I'm probably gonna start with a new character tomorrow or so. Curious about the evil ending... - Ghost Down
Pavlos Posted March 4, 2007 Author Posted March 4, 2007 I'm still waiting for my damned copy to arrive...
Ghost Down Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Where did you order it? Cause I did not have the new Rhino Demon Transformation style. Only people who order it at GameStop will receive the new style if I'm correct. Btw. RedHawke, It has an override folder - Ghost Down
Ctrl Alt Del Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Hehe, so the game is really that short, Ghost Down? Not even 4 days, and you finished the game. Still, I do hope it have an high replay factor (As Bioware games go).
Char Ell Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 I'm 12 hours into the game so far but I take my time and check out everything. I'm guessing the game will end up closer to 40 hours of total play time for me. Ghost Down said: Btw. RedHawke, It has an override folder Yeah, it sure does and it's already well used. I counted 3,181 files in my installation's override folder. It's apparent LTI Gray Matter dropped most if not all of the enhanced goodies for the PC version into the override. That's going to make modding a little more... interesting.
Jae Onasi Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 I just started my game, too, and have to look all over the place at everything, pick up scrolls, talk to people, etc., etc., etc. I still have to figure out how the combat stuff goes. I think I'll make a copy of that override folder before dropping mods in just in case something funky happens.
Emperor Devon Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 So many people getting Jade Empire. I really need to order my copy soon.
Ghost Down Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Yeah, I finished it in 12 hours. But then again. I found the fighting to be really easy. Btw. I found out a way on how to add the Rhino style to the game. (for those who did not preorder it) If you are interested PM me or else I'll post it here if an admin finds it okay.. - Ghost Down
Ghost Down Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Some of the moves where a bit repetitive. But nothing bad looking or so. There are also alot of styles that you probably never use. You'll mostly use your Martial style and Storm Dragon/Spirit Thief and the Jade Golem Transformation style - It can kill an strong opponent in 4/5 hits. - Ghost Down
PazaakPrincess Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 I found Spirit Theif the best against the wandering/flying/masked ghosts things, plus it's a great way to keep you're levels up whilst still inflicting some damage

You are wise far beyond your 29 years, Jae. Ghost Down said: Yeah, I finished it in 12 hours.Great Googulley-Moogulley man! Did you stop and talk to anyone or was your goal simply to complete the game as fast as you could? Prime said: How did you find the combat?Well, I can say that I've died a lot more in Jade Empire than I ever did in an entire playthrough of KotOR or TSL. Hopefully my cellar-dwelling twitch skills are improving though. After 12+ hours of gameplay I think I'm finally getting the jist of what styles to use against which opponents along with harmonic combos. There are just too many inputs for me to comfortably handle though. Press E to chi-enhance your attacks, F to enter focus mode, et al. In combat you're always facing your selected opponent unless you toggle free combat mode by pressing T so you can run about freely. I find that rather annoying. It's definitely a much different combat style than what I'm used to with the KotOR games but of course I knew that going in and decided to go for it anyway. No regrets, just a different experience than KotOR.
Ghost Down Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I talked to pretty much everyone. And did most of the sidequests.. - Ghost Down
Char Ell Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 ^^^ Hmmm... Maybe I'm just getting slow in my old age then.
Jae Onasi Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 I haven't totally figured out the combat thing, either--I may go back to the start spot and spar a couple more times to 'get it' better.
Vaelastraz Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Today I bought Jade Empire! Installed it first thing after I got home. Deleted all my Kotor safes to get enough space on my PC. And then I click on "start". *Insert complex dll name here* not found. I get the dll from another PC. I click on start again. *insert weird name here* not found in *insert weird name here* I took a look on the Dvd box and what do I have to discover? It's for XP only. No windows 2000, which is the OS i have. I'm really frustrated now - before I install XP (which I will certainly do to play Jade Empire) is there anyone here who knows how to run it with Windows 2000 Professional Edition?
Ghost Down Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Can't you get it to work using Computability mode? Or else make a post at the official forums: http://jade.bioware.com/forums/ - Ghost Down

oldflash Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 This is a great game. Most I like Kang the Mad and Wild Flower characters.
