Pwnzor326 Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Who here is actually gonna play someone besides a Jedi or Sith?
jrrtoken Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I might, if the other classes aren't relatively dull. This also includes quests associated with your class, including "Kill XXX amount of gizka.", which is essentially level-grinding.
EnderWiggin Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I intend to, if just to be different from everyone else. _EW_
Alkonium Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I'll probably make at least one non-Jedi alt, though my main will be a Jedi.
Paddythegreat Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I intend to, if just to be different from everyone else. _EW_ I played swg from beta up until the CU so i hate ****ing jedi, i will not play one no matter how good they are, ill find a way to beat them always.
SW01 Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 If I can play as a Sith Officer, I will. But, I will likely also have a Force-user alt - to wreak vengeance upon whatever band of Jedi players wipes me out...
Pwnzor326 Posted January 28, 2009 Author Posted January 28, 2009 Theres gotta be some heavy balancing I don't even know who they would do it.
SW01 Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Theres gotta be some heavy balancing I don't even know who they would do it. I was discussing this fairly recently with a few friends - one of them had the notion that they might have Jedi/Sith advance slower than other characters, as in gain less exp per action, or require more exp to level. Another balance may be to allow non-force user classes to advance skills, feats or attributes faster - to either beef up attack abilities, or skill modifiers (though a little less useful in battle), or things like wisdom, defence and strength to counteract the inherent advantages of playing as Jedi/Sith.
Steve-O Kreesh Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 If TOR let's me play as a Mando, then I will certainly play as a non-force user. Manies have all the coolest and biggest weapons to destroy things.
adamqd Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I'll play Jedi and Sith, if multiple character slots are available I shall have a pick up and go class like a commando for armor/guns/1 button kill reasons.
Ztalker Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I wa discussing this fairly recently with a few friends - one of them had the notion that they might have Jedi/Sith advance slower than other characters, as in gain less exp per action, or require more exp to level. Another balance may be to allow non-force user classes to advance skills, feats or attributes faster - to either beef up attack abilities, or skill modifiers (though a little less useful in battle), or things like wisdom, defence and strength to counteract the inherent advantages of playing as Jedi/Sith. I think skill modifiers are the aim. We know Atton received training to kill Jedi as efficiently as possible. And I think Mandlorians have some tactics against Jedi/Sith as well after the Mando Wars. I expect Talents to give some cool anti-Jedi skills. It would rock, because, like in real life, a blaster bolt is deadly. Watch the Geonosis scene and you know what I mean.
Jeff Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I'm sure I will eventually try all the classes and expect the non-force classes to be a lot of fun (Taris was one of my favorite planets in KotOR) but I do plan on rolling a Jedi first.
Ztalker Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Same as Moeller, I forgot to add. I'll be rolling a 'good' Sith first. I couldn't play a Sith in the kotor games (it feels...strange) so this is my chance to dish out some lightning on 'Vaderlover1995' and 'IAMDAEMPEROR1997.'
GeneralPloKoon Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Being a Jedi/Sith is the last thing I will do if I ever get the game. I tried so hard to NOT be a Jedi in KOTOR....it failed...
Darkkender Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 I'll take your non-force using sharp witted smuggler archtype outside of my main which will be a lightside favoring neutral force user. You may call me Jedi only in name but in truth Jolee Bindo always had the right of it. If you have ever played the PnP rpg you will find that the non-force users easily had there balances vs the force-users much like DnD Fighters vs Wizards.
Feagildin Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 I would love to see a non-force sensitive class that can dig in and duke it out with Jedi/Sith! I don't know if it'll happen though. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'll end up playing a Sith. Red saber plus Dun Möch, my friends!
Jeff Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 I would love to see a non-force sensitive class that can dig in and duke it out with Jedi/Sith! I don't know if it'll happen though. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'll end up playing a Sith. Red saber plus Dun Möch, my friends! Well I'm sure they will find some way to balance all the classes as that is an essential part of any MMO. I think a smuggler or bounty hunter will be able to hold their own against Jedi and Sith.
Nedak Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 If they would announce another profession besides Jedi I might. Everytime new Jedi content comes out I fall in-love with the idea of being Jedi more and more.
Pwnzor326 Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 I wa discussing this fairly recently with a few friends - one of them had the notion that they might have Jedi/Sith advance slower than other characters, as in gain less exp per action, or require more exp to level. Yea but I'm sure that would get huge backlash just the thought of having to grind more even if your a Jedi makes me cringe.
Darklink41 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 It depends on how they do the paying structure. If you have to pay to have multiple characters, I may choose a Jedi first. If you can have more than 1, I'm going to choose a droid first. Not sure what droid classes there may be, but a healer droid might be fun. If not thta, then a soldier droid.
Darth Eclipse Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 I would play as non-Jedi. It's awsome using blasters and special gear and such.
Feagildin Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 So I've been thinking a lot more about this lately, and after playing through Jedi Outcast and Academy again, I think I would definitely love to roll a scoundrel character, someone who gets by on wit, luck, charm, and a good blaster at their side! Maybe even a held together with duct tape junker of a smuggling freighter?
Tommycat Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I don't intend on playing a jedi at all. I might though, as all they have been talking about has been Jedi Jedi Jedi Jedi not jedi Jedi Jedi Jedi.
Jae Onasi Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Of course I have to play at least on Jedi, it's one one of the reasons I love Star Wars, after all. However, I'll probably end up playing one of every class/profession that they have, just to try them all out and have a nice variety of toons to play with in different party settings.
Aybara Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I hope that they can make the other classes more interesting. I would rather not play as a Lawful or Chaotic zealot.
