Jinn Tar-Nesh Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 .....I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!.... :D
Broode Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Ok, I just got the divx version from Bartalo's mirror... damn it rocks! Can't wait for this game... The only problems i have with it are at 1:44, when he kills that guy in slow motion... Kyle looks awesome, but the enemy is rocketed away at like 100kph,and keeps moving in 'jumps' across the ground, and his saber trails at that part kind of ruin the effect. The other thing was, at 1:29, kyle takes a swing then strafes in front of a wall, but no scorchmarks are left until the swing has finished. Also, listen closely at 1:52, you can hear a voice say: "Using Force " and then cuts to the next scene. Also+, check out 1:07, just before Kyle lightnings the guy, he glows like hes being lightninged. wtf? Really, the only thing that caused me to yell "cool!" out loud was at 1:37, when Kyle is dueling one of those resurrected jedi when he and his opponent bring their lightsabers togething in the best blocking move EVER! Well, not blocking really, but their sabers collide!
TUS_Tomcat Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 look at around 0:44 when he jumps down off that platform, a dark jedi is waiting below, and it looks like he is in a Darth Maul like cloak! or am i mistaken!?
elite_man2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 thx man i'm still downloading it can't wait till i see it
Darth Lunatic Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Excellent, i'm downloading now. Good speed too!
Darth Lunatic Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 HOLY TESTACLE TUESDAY!!! THAT WAS MAD! Great!! This game is gonna be mad fun!
Ushgarak Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 I've just read the review, and it must be said that it has me rather worried in places! They seem to think that the Force powers are largely uneccessary, and that most duels can be won by jumping behind your opponent and sabre throwing him. Sounds like a bit of a flaw in the system!
ps2maddenman Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Well if it is a known flaw maybe Raven is working on it? This is still beta. btw, I am not trying be a complainer, but the divx 14MB version is alot grainier and less quality than the 92MB version (.mov), but still if you have a slow connection it is the way to go and it was a very good idea, if you have a faster connection I still suggest d/ling the larger one as the vid is alot clearer.
FriendlyGhost Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Yeah Ushgarak I didn't like the way the review ended either Would be such a shame if it turns out these force powers and ESPECIALLY the lightsabre aren't in the end that useful or complicated...
TUS_Tomcat Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Is my mirror fast?? I would like to see the 92 meg one, but i dont have a place to DLoad it from ps2!!!
Wacky_Baccy Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Sadly I must concur with you, Ushgarak and FriendlyGhost (welcome, BTW ) - the review ended on a rather low note... I seriously hope that the Force powers aren't as negligible as the review seems to make out... perhaps if I play as stealthily as possible (the way I intend to, mostly) they might be of more use... I really hope so...
Darth Lunatic Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 I havent read the review. But what do they mean specifically about the force powers? Do they mean you can complete the game just as easily without using force powers (and the light saber)?

Do they mean you can complete the game just as easily without using force powers (and the light saber)? Essentially, yes (there are a few places where it's impossible to progrees without using them) Here's a quote - "[...]More worryingly, it's arguable how much you need to use the Powers at all in the single-player game. JK II can be completed (certainly at lower skill levels) using weapons alone, with only some brief sections where the Force is essential to solve basic puzzles (Force Pushing a crate onto a switch to activate a lift, for example)."
Agen Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 I was going to get the mag but now i'll jsut dwonlaod thwe 14meg divx version .... what's all this about force powers not being important force powers is what this game is almost built on (alongside guns) Oh yeh if you've noticed i have been gone for a while and things then it's because of RL things and my modem is being a pain in the ass and also that i have been playing MoH. oh yeh have a newbie spoon replica all the newbies.
CaptainRAVE Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 I just got the mag.......I havent got to the review yet, but that movie is amazing, shame about the quality though I especially liked the officer commands like "Get behind him".......I also liked the saber throw which got 1 bad guy going away from Kyle and one on the way back, I loved the green lightsaber , and finally I liked Kyles dodges
Ushgarak Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 The negligibility of the Force powers might just be down to opinion, of course. But that comment about beating all sabre opponents- including the bosses- by just getting behind them and using sabre throw worries me lots. It seems to render a lot of that lightsabre effort useless if it is true. I guess some of this could be tidied up before the final release, but then it would have been a waste of time letting PCG review it... It is also VERY odd to have a review that states that an extra month of developmment would have improved the game, when said review is released a month before the game is!
coolgaur Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 I guess that almost everybody has the movie now. I got it but i´ll have to say that this movie is not so very special but its cool anyway. :lsduel: :lsduel: :lsduel: :lsduel: :lsduel:
CaptainRAVE Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 It definatly should have been better quality
Ushgarak Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Actually, I am not sure what the reviewer meant when he said that you don't 'need' the Force powers. He says you can complete the games with weapons alone. I would have thought that was rather obvious. I mean, you don't 'need' the Force powers in the original, either, do you? Do the whole game with the pistol if you want, duels aside. The Force powers are an extra tool, like any other. Perhaps what he is really saying there is that the game is too easy. So let's be playing it on maximum difficulty, I think!
CaptainRAVE Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 This site really should get a copy. Theres system specs for the game and everything.........considerably lower than I expected though.

So let's be playing it on maximum difficulty, I think! absolutely wrong maybe you wont need to grip or fry troopers, because you can disrupt them out of the way, but you cant finish the game without using force powers. It was needed before (MotS), and now there will be more force power puzzles, It has been mentioned everywhere that that is one of the reasons why you cant choose your powers, because you will be assigned the powers you will need to use
TUS_Tomcat Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 YAY finally the big one found in KaZaA its remotely qued but at least now i can try find more sources at all times and it will continue on its own if it finds something, no more desperate searches... in due time i will have it
digl Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Originally posted by Broode Also+, check out 1:07, just before Kyle lightnings the guy, he glows like hes being lightninged. wtf? you are right weird Kyle also glows before frying the guy maybe he uses heal Originally posted by TUS_Tomcat look at around 0:44 when he jumps down off that platform, a dark jedi is waiting below, and it looks like he is in a Darth Maul like cloak! or am i mistaken!? I think Youv seen TPM too many times besides all Jedi use the same cloaks
CaptainRAVE Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Did anyone hear at the end of the trailer a weapon that sounded like the photon launcher of Elite Force?? A sly move by Raven Did you also notice the Rodian that calls for security and the modified AT-ST that is fireing missiles
