troop5 Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Dont know if anyone knows, or if its been answered before. Can you customize AI bots such as force powers? I know they will have a difficulty setting, but a force power setting would be a nice addition and maybe choosing if you wanted them to be Non-Jedi. (it would rock to throw some bounty hunter bots such as fett and Id88 into a deathmatch)
Bowen Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Hmm....good idea....I never thought about customizing Force powers for the bots, but I would certainly think that one or more people thought about that at either Raven, Activision or Lucasarts. I'm looking forward to playing with the bots as much as the SP game! I'm of course looking forward to online play but sometimes it fun to play with just bots and you have a guarantee of no lag!!
digl Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Probably someone thaught of it as Bowen says They always mention that the game has lots of options and is very customizable
SaberPro Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Say the game is very customizable... Will we about to customize our own Jedi character in MP? Like in Sims? Choosing the character's head, torso, arm...etc That'd be cool A.I. is definitely customizable
TUS_Tomcat Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 I hope you can also customise their weapons. If not, I'll play Jedi Master mode with stormtrooper bots. I just need to make sure I get the saber, adn then the fun begins. Me with saber and force powers vs. 4 (or more) easy stormies with only regular guns. Now if there were some way to restrict them to stormtrooper blasters only it'd be even better
Toa Tahu Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 I hope that we could customise everything. Then I'll play Holocron and make (damn) sure I get the Force Protection,and then addbot,and then the fun begins!,just as TUS_Tomcat said. Playing @ home=Anti-lag!!
TUS_Tomcat Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Yeah bots sound like one of my fav things in the game! Lotsa possibilities hopefully. Cant wait for some big saber fights (like 5 jedi vs 5 sith, me being one of them) Or, if you can really customise weapons and force powers, how about 3 jedi or sith (one of em is you) vs 8+ stormie bots with no force and just their blasters... And they respawn of course I really really HOPE that this kind of bot configuring is possible, otherwise, i hope someone enables it with mod, or Raven reads this and puts it in a patch or expansion pack
RedHerring Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 I really like the idea of the Stormtroopers vs. me (the Jedi). After a hard day of school, I like to mess up some stormtroopers and have extremely little chance of dieing.
troop5 Posted March 17, 2002 Author Posted March 17, 2002 Yeah that would rock, i would re-create the junkyard fight against ig88 like in shadows of the empire. But id throw in some other bounty hunters too. Even if you cant customize them from the retail, im sure there will be a patch or a mod to do so.
Rogue_Ace Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 I hope that it will be similar to that of Unreal Tounament. That will make it sweet because i the fact that you can use the MP maps with out having to get online (my connection sucks)
Zek Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 I imagine you will be able to customize the bots, at least force powers. I heard from the previews that there will be multiple bot "personalities" which cause them to behave in certain ways(probably like only use saber, only use guns, be very aggressive, etc). As for recreating scenes, remember that all the bots will be just like players; they'll most likely all have sabers, can pick up guns, can use the force, etc. If you feel like running around beating on helpless stormtroopers and such, singleplayer will be much better suited for it.
Sithcloak Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 I'm more looking forward to bots for the chance to practice before i jump into some multi-player games, so i don't come in as a newbie. Sithcloak
JaG|Kaiser Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 no idea, but with bots, you can probably set their difficulty.
Jedimaster74 Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I am pretty sure that you will be able to customize bots to your liking just like you could in Quake III since this game is using the Quake III Engine which powered Quake III.
UniKorn Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Every Q3 based game that released its sdk had the bot ai files included. You need these files if you create extra modes and you want the bots to be able to fulfill the goals of your mode. Can't imagine that they won't be available.
