LordSerion Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 I would like the Force Storm the reborned Palpatine used against the Rebel fleet at Pinnacle Base. And the Spear of Midnight Black, too.
PoiuyWired Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Hmmm... I think little by little we are letting our Munchkin Side of The Force Creeps Out.
Maphisto86 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Zapping people with Force Lightning is pretty sweet but I really don't have too much of a preference. Im glad they have the ones we are going to see and I REALLY like the idea that you can combine the powers to do all sorts of stuff. I am however holding out hope that, while you can use Force Grip, in the game that it also allows you to chokehold your enemies ala Darth Vader. I mean that's evil! Hmmm... I think little by little we are letting our Munchkin Side of The Force Creeps Out. Im geussing it's a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unaturally cutesy. *shudders* The Horror....
Alexander the Great Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Force crush. Instead of just lifting them up, actually crush their bones into their organs. The lightning looks great, how it actually shapes over the objects it's destroying. Is Force repulsion that thing where he jumps into the air and then spreads out his body sending a giant shockwave?
MacTavish Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Force crush. Instead of just lifting them up, actually crush their bones into their organs. That would probably make the game rated M.
Alexander the Great Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Nah, it was in KotOR 2. It's not like it shows their guts exploding everywhere, it justs constricts their entire body with great force. Basically Force grip except more powerful and with the whole body.
PoiuyWired Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 That would probably make the game rated M. You just need to show the body of your target wiggling unnaturally defying healthy joint movements, then maybe a bit of bloow from the mouth, then drop dead on the floor like a puppet/ragdoll. BTW, Force Crush is basically WinRAR with the force, without the ability to unrar. It kinda compresses your target. Not sue how far you can compress it, but pressing a humanoid into the size of a slightly bigger basketball would look spiffy. You may even be able to slam dunk it into your next taget for extra Cool Points.
Weave Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I'm going with Repulse... Sending legions of stormtroopers flying around like little screaming rag-dolls? I don't think it can get any more fun than that.
Jedi-Jack Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 what about push? did you see the way in the trailer they were pushing them like nothing. i cant wait.
TKA-001 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 I want to see some of my favorite powers from KOTOR, like Force wave and storm. (In one of the clips it looked like wave is in the game.) The lightening still looks kind of weak as compared to the other games in my opinion. Not in JA, it looked way better in JO, for sure... The lightning kinda reminds me of what it looked like when I was using it with Kyle in JO to whoop some booty, so I like I wouldn't say the lightning looks weak. The game focuses around four main powers - Force push, grip, repulse and lightning. I think they all looked pretty badass in the previs. I mean the amount of lightning isn't a lot compared to the other games, which usually have literal storms coming from the player's hands. I would like to see it look a bit thicker. What? The lightning looks real to me in JK. How does the lightning look weak? Especially combined with other powers, like the described power combo where you can lift enemies off the ground, blast them with lightning, and smash them through the ground. Not to mention how much more realistic the lightning looks in this game compared to others, like Jedi Knight. Actually, I'm pretty sure they mucked up the lightning in every single game. I can't remember a single occasion where the lightning didn't look phony, or didn't behave/move wrong, or didn't make it obvious that the creators had never looked at the lightning in the movies to compare so they get it right. All they did was look at the power's name and think "Ok! It shoots lightning!" and make some wacked out effect, like the nonsense from JK2 and JKA where the lightning just instantly appears at its destination rather than traveling there, or absoloute failure in the sounds department in Empire at War, where they just used standard electricity sounds. Force crush. Instead of just lifting them up, actually crush their bones into their organs. That would probably make the game rated M. Yeah, God forbid we have actual violence of note in a Star Wars game rather than all this pansy cleché heroism bull****.
Boba Fett 1991 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Yeah, God forbid we have actual violence of note in a Star Wars game rather than all this pansy cleché heroism bull****. The last time star wars took a try at gore was Republic Commando, and that was pathetic.
TKA-001 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 I wasn't asking for gore, and RC was over the top, not pathetic.
SidiousHead Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Well, I like these powers here: Force Lightning, Force Push, and Force Storm. I dont know if they will make an appearance, but they might, so hey.
Jeff Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Force Lightning and Force Storm are basically the same thing. I think the powers the game focuses on are lightning, push/pull, repulse, and grip.
GeneralPloKoon Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 I just want to throw around a tie fighter.
Jeff Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Oh also I saw in a video somebody linked to in another thread one of the devs mention "Force Maelstrom" where he floats with that ball of energy around him and lets it rip. So there's probably more we haven't heard about.
Serpentine Cougar Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 How about Force Hamstring? [/sarcasm] I actually kind of liked Republic Commando. It wasn't that gorey anyway; it was only rated Teen, wasn't it?
Boba Fett 1991 Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 It sounds as if they're taking words that refer to a form of chaos taking place and turning them into force powers.
TKA-001 Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I remember seeing that in the trailer. I immediately thought "Star Wars meets The Matrix". I've always been annoyed by seeing [Dark] Jedi/Sith levitating, but I'm pretty sure it only looked like he was because the trailer showed it in slow-mo.
Adenn Kyramud Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 I'm actually surprised that no one has thought of this. Say, by chance, that stealth was necissary. Wouldn't it be much more silent so simply....oh I dunno... Use the force to sever the victims spinal chord? I'm just saying. It may not be as satisfying as crushing or shocking them to death, but it would be easier and more quiet. Speaking of easy, one Jedi, using said technique, could theoretically wipe out an entire army. Same concept for droids, just a little more technical [Edit] Now that i think about it, Force Grip could be used to do this
Rev7 Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 I am looking forward to all of the new force powers and abilities.
