Yeah except this a direct copy from the gamespot preview i believe.

Or the gamespy preview, trust me it's literally copied.

How do i know? simple i have a very good memory...i dont know what the english word is right now....heh i forgot...ironic...but it's when your able to remember whole pages.

and i remember every word in that specific order from either 1 of those previews.

yes, i thought it seemed familiar, but i hadnt seen it before there, so i thought it may just be using similar wording and content. thought id post it anyway.

 

 

oh and matt

 

Sors salutis, et virtutis, michi nunc contraria.

Est afectus, et defectus, semper in angaria.

Hac in hora, sine mora, corde pulsum tangite.

Quod per sortem, sternit fortem, mecum omnes plangite.

 

translates roughly to-

 

The luck of health

and strength

is against me,

is attacked

and ruined

all the time, in your service.

 

In this hour

without delay

sweep the sounding strings.

And for that fortune

that overthrows the strong man,

weep with me, all of you

---

 

its in latin. carl orff. carmina burana. oh fortuna

It seems familiar to me as well. The "You didn't see that" comment in particular after the stormtrooper slicing.

 

I don't recall reading a statement that there were going to be secondary functions/fire for all weapons. This is good news and implies that even the bryar pistol has a secondary use (probably as a doorstop). ;)

 

While I don't think it is probable I do share Kurgan's concern on the matter.

Yeah, let me say that putting a zoom on a few weapons would still be nice, but it would be TOO EASY considering that's the default Q3 setting.

 

About a third of DF's weapons had secondary fire modes, in JK about half. Secondary fire has since become a staple in the Half Life and Unreal games.

 

It would be just something we'd expect in JK2. ; )

 

Btw, if you guys think the new preview isn't really "new" then I won't post it.
