Lorewin Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 Hello, I´d just like to say that PC Gamer Sweden has reviewed it now also, they get most material from pcgamer UK. It got an Overall Score of 90%. Probably the same beta as UK, but different opinions. Its not a bad score, I just thought It´d be higher .
Walker of Sky Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 ........O well, I guess u can't please everyone when u make a game, no one's perfect.
digl Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 welcome to the forum Lorewin and thanks for the info Can you tell us what they didnt like of the game? (why 90% and not 100% )
Eternity Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 90% is good enough for me. Most games get in the 70's.
OnlyOneCanoli Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 Thanks for the heads up. Do you know of any new info included in the review, or anything noteworthy?
StormHammer Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 Welcome to the forums, Lorewin, Walker of Sky and Raze. Hope you're enjoying your stay. Here... *hands each a chocolate Jedi Medallion* There you go. Thanks for the heads-up, Lorewin. Mind you, if they're still basing their scores off a pre-beta version...then the score is pretty pointless, IMHO.
Raze Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 hah, ph001! you already gave me a medaillon so I now got one for free! muahahaha
darthfergie Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 What!!! 90% I say we get a couple of Sith together and go teach them how to review games. Lets go guys...
Woad Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Yeesh guys. Come on, 90% for a beta version of a game is pretty dang good. We couldn't really have anticipated perfect 100s now could we?
TUS_Tomcat Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 why not?!?!? It's starwars, you got a lightsaber, and you get to slice stormtroopers up!!! 100% baby :elephant: :elephant: :elephant: :elephant:
Lorewin Posted March 3, 2002 Author Posted March 3, 2002 Well, the only complaints they had on the game was that It had some annoying puzzle solving in the worst console fashion, and that the AI was to good almost as if they had xray vision n could see through walls. The voice actings where good they say. and the MP was extremely well made with lots of different gametype options, one for instance where u gotta catch some animal that makes u immune to force powers. Saber was really cool to they say and u can press a "lock" button that makes your saber lock with another enememys saber. All n all they say its very very good, despite the AI n puzzel flaws wich I really dont care about. I will play it MP 99.64% of the time anyway and that part was VERY good they said. Ok, dont have more typing energy. oh and thanks for the chocolate Jedi Medallion... (?) I find that Stormhammer creature to be a little .. odd .
digl Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 thanks so MP is great, I will also play 99% of the time MP, so I dont care much about the SP puzzles If you think StormHammer and his Jedi Medallions are odd, wait till Jediknight_114 or Agen_Terminator start giving gifts...
Eternity Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 I find that Stormhammer creature to be a little .. odd . Thank you for making my day.
Walker of Sky Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 I'm happy they found the MP part of the game to be very good. I would think that the MP was the most important part the developers felt they needed to work on, and since some reviews felt that it was good, I think the developers accomplished their mission.
Woad Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 That x-ray vision A.I kinda sounds like MOH:AA Alot of people complained about it, but it only served to make things that much more fun and realistic for me.
StormHammer Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Originally posted by Lorewin oh and thanks for the chocolate Jedi Medallion... (?) You're welcome. I find that Stormhammer creature to be a little .. odd . You have no idea. And a big welcome to you too, ShortThug. Here... *hands over a chocolate Jedi Medallion*. | | v
Proto Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 I can bet those "annoying puzzle solving" is not really different from this in Jedi Knight or even Dark Forces and generally older, more ambitious games. I guess people just got used to "run and gun" type games and every puzzle gets annoing. Well, that's what i'll love JO for. Too good AI doesn't bother me either as it gets a tradition in latest FPS (RtCW, MoH:AA). For me those cons are pros as they just prolong the gameplay and make it more challenging. So if they cut down the score because of this down to 90%, then for me it's 110%
ZePhyR Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Guys, we have to accept the fact that this game may not be perfect, and afterall, 90% is nothing to complain about. It's still Editor's Choice as far as PC Gamer's Ranking goes, isn't it?
Lorewin Posted March 4, 2002 Author Posted March 4, 2002 yep, it got the Game of the month award. They werent annoed with the fact that there are puzzles, just that there are stupid puzzles. ALso there was a cool MP option where one guy is a Jedi Master and everyone else has blasters and have to kill him to be master themselfs, but I´ts probably old news . I really dont care if its totaly crap Singe play. Shure I´ll play through single once. BUt with a good MP the game could last for years.
RoyalGuard Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 90% is good enough, any game is going to have flaws especially at the beta stage. Glad to hear that kill the fool with the Ysalmari made it to JKO, and a Master Tag sounds cool. I anticipate a complete lack of real social life after the release (which can't come soon enough!)
digl Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Its not exactly KFY, Its CTFY Instead of flag there is a branch with a ysalamiri check the zone JO site help section for info on the mp modes
Darth Simpson Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 90% is not pretty good, 90% is an exceptional game. It seems like most of you are complaining about JKII getting 90%, which is pretty dumb. Again, 90% is excellent / great / incredible etc.
