Zuckuss13 Posted August 19, 2001 Share Posted August 19, 2001 Hey, Does anybody know what age Kyle is, cause if this ones is set 10 years later i think he'll be getting on a bit, He looked quite old in JK, i know theres be old Jedi' before ( or sith ), Mabey its just his beard, also i hope you can get other costumes as you go through the game, like stormtrooper kyle, Thanks Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 If Kyle was around 20 in Dark Forces (around the time of the film A New Hope), and Jedi Outcast is set approximately 14 years post-ANH, then Kyle should be in his mid-30's. I too would like to see some changes of clothing for Kyle's character to suit the different environments. It is certainly something the central characters in the movies did during the course of each film, so it would be a nice touch, both for 3rd-person view and for in-engine cut scenes. I think it would also be good to have another level where you can don a disguise, a la MotS. It would certainly vary the gameplay.

acdcfanbill Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 uhh, do sith look a certian way? the three sith lords we have seen look totally different, vader, emperor, and maul... only two were human, and all they didnt look similar to each other in anyway. besides, GL hasnt said what the 'sith' are, or what they look like...

access_flux Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 the one thing that linked the sith together were that they all dressed in black, but a kyle that changed costume would be cool, and what would be even cooler would be a commandoes like thing were if you were in stormtrooper armour (and a helmet) all the other stormies would think that you are one of then until they see you do something... unimperial? but yer costumes changes would be great.

Moses Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Would dressing like a Sith do much good? I mean, maybe if you were going up against a few stormies you could sneak past, but that doesn't really seem worth it. A sith would know who you are through the Force, and (at least in all the screenshots, and I know we've talked about this before) the DJ in this game is a dude with a ponytail who doesn't have the same clothes as say, Darth Maul. If Darth Maul walked into this base the stormies would probably shoot him too, so I don't quite know what good clothing of that nature would do. Maybe a stormie suit or something. That was done in ANH, but I don't think it would be too cheap to pull it off in the game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, with the new Jedi Confuse and Jedi Knock force powers, there is more scope for players who want to sneak around a bit more. Anyway, what does it matter about Kyle's age? Qui-Gon was doing okay in his 60s, and old Obi-Wan was no slouch. I mean, there's plenty of scope to continue this Jedi Knight series of games, isn't there? How about Jedi Knight 20 - the epic saga of Geriatric Kyle, with his Force-powered walking-cane lightsabre? You could even introduce some new force powers like Force Sneer, Force Fart and Force Pee to strike terror into the ranks of your enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilhuf Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Qui-Gon was in his 60s? Wow he looked like he was only in his 50s at oldest in (The Attack of) The Phantom Menace. Do not underestimate the power of Geritol. Kyle going gray at age 38? He'd better get in touch with the Hairclub for Men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kurgan Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 My theory is that either: 1) Kyle is trying to appeal to the older Star Wars fans (those who were twenty-something's in '77). 2) Kyle got gray because of his ordeal in the valley (recall he has the grays in MotS too). Strain and such will do that to a person... Kurgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardz Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 I think he's gone gray because he is so stressed out - Mara Jade or Jan how can he choose? Man, it would make me go gray wardz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap[RR] Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Uhh, his hairs grey cause, he's uhh old? Also the older a jedi is the wiser and stronger, maybe a bit lower stamina, but the force is what helps them move faster than normal old guys, force and the life of a jedi.( you know eating good foods, staying in shape, not to mention the enhancements of the force ) So i say the older the stronger. Btw qui-gon was in his late 50's early 60's, the only reason why he looked so young was cause he was played by a way younger actor ( and all jedi seem to look young in there old age 40 - 60 ) hell how old was obiwan in ANH 80?(quick estimate), looked like normal 60 year olds.

Ice Man1587246496 Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 I'd really like to see full sets of clothing. For instance in jungle maps he should be have camouflaged clothing. In urban areas he should greyish-blackish clothing, Tatooine-->sandy color, Star Destroyer --> Stormie uniform! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nykel007 Posted August 24, 2001 Share Posted August 24, 2001 It be cool to have jedi robes. You know when he runs, it will flow in the wind,when he moves it will shift and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashRendar11587246510 Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 Well, in Half-Life, Gordon had a pretty bushy beard, and he's only 27. So, maybe Kyle isn't that old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 beards dont mean much, because i know a kid who grew a full beard at 17... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted September 3, 2001 Share Posted September 3, 2001 In real life, actor Jason Court was about 31 when he played Kyle Katarn in JK and JK2 happens 9 years after that, so Kyle might be in his early 40s...
