Neonix Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 Please let there be no kell dragons, i swear to god i hate those things, not that there difficult to beat or something, there just annoying, in the meaning of annoying like Jar Jar in ep. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJP3E Posted March 2, 2002 Author Share Posted March 2, 2002 Whats wrong with Kells in JK you dont have to fight them.... The first one is totallay optional the other two you just out move and are free of them.... I loved the rancor in MOTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainRAVE Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 We have no idea what critters there will be, if any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPMaximilian Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 I liked the Kell Dragon in Dark Forces. It added a lot of challenge, but we won't be able to have levels like Jabba's Palace, because no fists. BUT, maybe there is a totally unarmed state, like in MOHAA when you holster your weapon, so you could run around with no weapons, then find a stun baton or something. And I liked Jar Jar in Ep 1.

BJP3E Posted March 2, 2002 Author Share Posted March 2, 2002 we know of these swamp troopers right???? well this must mean we will be in a swamp type environment maybe at some point which may have other life????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Truthful Liar Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 *shrugs* I dunno, it'd be nice to see some cute little critters to mash... or some big a$$ aliens that frighten the $H!T out of you. (how about little rats or roaches like in HalfLife?) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neonix Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 I must say though, that certain critters can be in it, an Ewok for example, love to crush one of those, but that would mean im following the dark side. go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digl Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 I dont know then but as you say we may find some surprises at the swamp (Is Yoda's Swamp in the game?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent_Thunder Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 I really hope Kell Dragons make a return... They were another unique thing that was in Dark Forces, and Jedi Knight, that I hope doesn't get passed over.... Also, I'd much rather see Kell Dragons then Rancors any day... I hope there isn't another rancor battle... There really needs to be some kind of creatures in the SP game to make it interesting. Dark Forces made it seem fairly believeable with the ammount of creatures in it. But that was only because there weren't any out doors areas. While Jedi Knight, even though it had several out doors areas was severly lacking in it's critters department... No need to explain why. MotS didn much, much better in that regard. There's ysalmari, dart flowers, dianogas, swamp wampas, ambient sounds... such as birds, malocs (even though they were in JK). It made the levels seem alot mroe alive... However, I do not believe JO will have many critters in it... maybe even less then JK. This is mainly due to the fact of what the UK gamer review said, whcih was something like: "there aren't really many skins in the game, and even the ones that do appear, appear to scarcely. There's a rediculas ammount of Rodians, GRans, Stormtroopers, reborns and imperial officers, but not much of anything else, which is a crieing shame really." Ok, those aren't the exact words, but that's about as much as I could remember. But my point is, since the reviewers are noticing this it'll probably be fairly true. However, maybe Raven wasn't done making all of the skins when UK gamer previewed it, so it still may be proved untrue, but I'll just wait and see untill the game comes out...

Lord_FinnSon Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 I don't remember wookies been mentioned in any preview so far; of course I haven't had a chance to read those older PC Gamer US issues or see their "exclusive" screenshots. In the comics there appears to be some wookie bounty hunters and criminals here and there though, so they would make awesome addition to non-imperial enemies. What comes to creatures, we have already seen this concept: Probably one of the swamp creatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon says Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 Vorknskrs (how do you spell it!!!) might be in the game, and anyone remember dianogas? Used to scare the crap outa me in DF when they'd surface on lvl 2. I'd like to see more non-mission specific ppl running around, like NPCs and critters. It will give the game a more 'realistic' feel, at least as realistic as you can get in Star Wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainRAVE Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 The wookie appeared in the official trailer when it gets vaporised by the disruptor type gun with the zoom scope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 Sorry, CaptainRAVE, but you better watch that trailer once again. Its a Gran who "gets vaporised by the disruptor type gun with the zoom scope", not a Wookie. I though first that you have read it from somewhere...

It will give the game a more 'realistic' feel, at least as realistic as you can get in Star Wars I totally agree with you there. I just played through Unreal again...and having things like Nali rabbits and cows, flies and birds buzzing around and schools of fish really lends more atmosphere to the game. They are not simply nasty enemies out for your blood. It's a similar thing with Rune (which I'm playing at the moment), where the underwater levels and caverns have fish, jellyfish...and BIG fish, along with giant flying insects that don't really bother you... They are there simply to add atmosphere to the levels, to bring them alive, and they work surprisingly well. I don't see a problem with bringing back a Rancor either...if it is as tough, and lumbering, as the Titans in Unreal...with a big enough space with few hiding places to run around in... I don't think the Rancor was done very well in MotS, so a high-poly beast with a truly earth-shaking gait would be something to behold! I'm not so worried about seeing dianoga, vornskrs, mailocs, water cycs, etc., because we've seen them all before. I'd like to see some new stuff in there...some fast, sleek predators underwater, and some beasts that aren't just enemies to defeat on land. Of course...it's a bit late wishing for these things now. We'll just have to wait and see what the game actually contains... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digl Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 I'm not sure what is that FinnSon refers to the one in the end, that is clearly a Gran (Ree-yees) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 The one at time index 0:40?? I would say that is rodian. Why? Looks like he has white jumpsuit(at least jacket) and his face(even though his hands and blurry video quality are making it hard to see clearly) is green.

digl Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 I also thaught It could be a Rodian, but Im not sure, Its not clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Flyswatter Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 It was a wookie. I heard a Chewbacca like moan. It was in the trailer that needed DivX player to run. I couldn't see ANYTHING in it, because it used stupid RealPlayer, and not Quicktime, and RealPlayer videos SUCK, but I did hear gun shots then a Wookie cry.

Syko Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 You want something sleek and fast and underwater? Bring in that Half-Life fish. But if they put something like that in the game I swear I will have a heart attack and come after them with the game box and beat them over the head with it (all of this WHILE I'm having the heart attack, mind you). That fish scared the hell out of me. -Syko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky_Baccy Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 I'm with FinnSon on this - it's most likely a Rodian, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
