Crong Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 I heard a rumor that the Vong from the New Jedi Order serious would be in the game either in the single player (NEW MENECING THREAT, THAT FITS!) or as a multiplayer option. This would be cool but..I would like anybody who knows about this or knows its nothing more then a rumor and isnt true to answear the question THanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt-- Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 Welcome to the forums, Crong! I'm not really interested in the New Jedi Order...but nothing has been ruled out. You just might see the Vong! Just not here. You might catch some in the Valley of the Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon1 Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 I doubt it. The Vong come more than 20 years after SW4, JO is only 14 years after (I believe). They probably won't introduce any commonly-unknown characters from the expanded universe. MP skins will probably consist of SP characters and variations thereof, like in JK.

digl Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 from knotes #3 Skins and models of all types and allegiances were made available and selectable by the player We could see some EU models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millions o' Monkeys Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 welcome crong new jedi order hrmmmm...nope sorry not for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 That would be cool!!! But it says that durring NJO Kyle is a military advisor (in newest SWInsider) Plus it shows Dark Jedis...It might be a bonus mission or something, but probably not part of the main plot line. Imagine in MP...A vong with a lightsaber...or even a blaster *lol* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Simpson Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 Please no, I'm so sick of the Vong. Don't ask me why, but I just think they are an incredibly weak attempt to add something new to the EU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 what the EU needs is to write about totally original charcters... quit focusing on georges creations, i mean the galaxy is huge, there are millions of people to write about...

nykel007 Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 Very unlikely to me. Even if they were in the game they would have made very tough foes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.H.A.S. Posted December 23, 2001 Share Posted December 23, 2001 I hope there's Vong in multiplayer but it wouldn't fit in single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted December 23, 2001 Share Posted December 23, 2001 I also don't think that Vongs would be in SP(perhaps in JK3, who knows ), but I don't see any reason, why they couldn't be in MP. When developing multiplayer part of JK2, Raven should take much wider view to whole SW universe, its characters, main locations and perhaps important timelines, because you can't leave them out just because SP campaign happens in another time with another characters; there are a lot of characters and events(in both past and future timelines) that are important in a way, how they have affected or will later affect to our main characters. Through those other characters, locations and events, we understand better our main characters' motivations. Besides, who wouldn't want to relive through scenes like end duel between Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Maul from Episode I or duel between Luke and Vader from ESB/RotJ; each place and character has its own part in the play, which wouldn't be perfect without them.

Fruitloop Posted December 28, 2001 Share Posted December 28, 2001 I think Raven and LA should focus on the opponents we all know and love rather than ones that would be rather difficult to destroy (from what I've read). If the Vong were included, I'd also like to see the Dominion from DS9, the Shadows from Babylon 5, those aliens from Independence Day, and every other alien invader we've ever heard of. Especially the Shadows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediBendu Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 The Vong are about as tough as a Jedi one on one. They could be added in almsot exactly like a Jedi, with an Amphistaff instead of a lightsabre. An Amphistaff is a biological hand to hand weapons which can block lightsabres, and shear through most armour, and thus would have exactly the same abilities as a sabre in game, except it wouldn't leave burn marks. A mod would be failry easy to do to introduce the other Vongie weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowbieOne Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 I know it is fairly insignifigant to the fact that Yuuzhan Vong will be in JK2, but I took this excerpt from the N.R.I. Report off the new Outcast site: Director Dif Scaur was the head of New Republic Intelligence during the first year of the Yuuzhan Vong crisis The headquarters of the NRI lies deep within Coruscant, although they have safe houses throughout the galaxy on planets such as Wayland. Scaur believes that their is a traitor in the NRI or on the Security and Intelligence Council. Not concrete at all, but definatley a possibility. I actually wouldn't mind them as long as I could duel them with my Saber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 hey, if it ant mandolor armor, a personal shield, or another sabre, then you can slice it up!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loatsy Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 Acdcfanbill a lightsabre can cut through anything apart from another lightsabre blade if the force applied is great enough, though it would be interesting considering the Vong are immune from most force powers and that Amphistaff definatley carries an added bite.

A Big Fat CoW Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 uhm... im not sure if fruitloop was being sarcastic, but if not... are you insane? it'd be impossible to get all the rights for those.. maybe in a mod, but they just wouldnt fit in SW... but the shadows rule! heh on a more thread-related note: it WOULD be cool to have to fight some vong, though i dont think they will be in the initial release... hopefully someone will mod them later on, heh. im done now.

Fruitloop Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 Yeah, I was being sarcastic. Sorry if I was unclear. It would certainly be a legal nightmare to get the rights to all those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Big Fat CoW Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 heh i though(hoped) so. anyway, i should have noticed it earlier, but i was hanging around Nar all day (for thsoe who dont know: the zone room for JK1), and its COMPLETELY infested with idiotic newbies between the times of 7AM-3PM... heh... k ills hut up now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
