Territo Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 I have no problem with saber throwing, I never put points into unless I have left overs when the rank is Jedi Master. If anyone hits me with it (not often) I just use heal right away. I suppose for dark side this could be more annoying but then there is drain to get that right back :slsaber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteChedda Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Originally posted by Sithdrone In the last 72 hours, I did a test. I dueled 100 people. 98 of them constantly threw their sabers. Raven, I had the best time of my life dueling last week. This week, it seems as though everybody has figured out the easiest cop out in dueling. What the hell is saber throwing allowed for anyway? Did Luke throw throw his saber at Darth Vader every 2 seconds????? Its so out of place, it makes absolutely no sense. Dueling is a virtual joke. You sir, need to visit a doctor about getting high blood pressure medication NOW nefore its too late, oh and cut caffine out of your diet too. That said, I am getting about sick of people using a MOVIE to define how THEY think a game should be. As to throwing sabers, watch the movies again there is most certainly a SCENE where a saber is THROWN. Even if it is not AT a person it is thrown to hit something, now think real hard on that one for a second. Someone yesterday posted about the bar and that no "just" people were in it like they were in the movie, I'd like to remind him that this is a GANGSTER hideout in the game, and if you recall the Hut's" hideout in Episode 3, everyone was against luke or being saved by him. Now quit trying to make this Episode 2, that comes out May 15th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for listening. this is a blatant lie ... post facts, not bs ... i would probably consider reading your post if you bothered to tell the truth in the 1st two sentances ...

Swamp Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Originally posted by Sithdrone oh wait you use "ROFLMAO"...how typically typical. Where did you learn that expression, hanging out in irc all day with your gay friends? Might be a little hard finding that clue with your testacle in place of your brain. kind of hard for people to take your complaints seriously when all you do is bash others that disagree with you, granted they weren't the nicest people either. But for me, anyone who simply yells at somene who disagrees with them doesn't deserve to be heard in any rational manner.. / steps back "let the flame commence" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamp Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Originally posted by Sithdrone but most teens are new to online gaming and sink very low when it comes to winning and impresssing their friends. I've seen it in every online game, never fails. Wether they play with all the hacks they could find or find the cheapest exploit to win, many games have gone down the drain. As an admin, every cheater I've talked with turned out to be 15-18. Sad, but true. ...now this is probably the only thing i will agree with from you on this topic ... I being 17, have all too well seen what my younger and even some older peers have done, it is quite dissapointing ... maybe along with the content rating, they should have a maturity standard on the box...when you go to buy it, the guy at the counter sais "I'm sorry, you cannot purchase this game, it requires a maturity level of blundering idiot or higher" ....of course that is impossible, but one can dream...

Voldos Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 1. You're a coward and obviously depend on saber throwing since you lack any true melee skill. You're an idiot to just stand there and get hit by it insted of jumping out the way... 2. You dont have the slightest clue what good sportsmanship is. If you do you would accept that you are not the god of the game and nobody has to follow the way you play 3. You're a teenager, new to online gaming and think you know everything. and of course you know everything! im only 14 and ive been playing mmporpgs for a few years now and just because someone uses a different tactic than you doesnt mean there a dumb kid that doesnt no **** 4. You have no love for the Star Wars Universe and Jedi dueling, you just want to win, no matter how cheap in doing it. you idiot! the hole point in a duel is to win, thats why you fight each other and dont stand there saying "ok you kill me then i'll kill you then we have 1 kill each and its fair! :D" and also...vader threw his lightsabre at luke in rotj wen he was standing above him on that platform thingy... 5. You have no honor, because its easy to be honorless behind a computer, in the comfort of your own home. ......ummmm......its a move in the game........its not a cheat or anything its an actual move.......does that mean you are honerless for swipeing at people with a lightsabre?.....o dear... to put it shortly i think u dun have the slightest clue wat ure going on about!

Broode Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Have a cry. So they threw their sabers. And you think you can stop them. Try going to a quake message board and telling people to stop using the rocket launcher. You'll probably get similar results. Perhaps when you said "I dueled 100 people. 98 of them constantly threw their sabers", you really meant "I dueled 100 people. 98 of them threw their sabers once or twice, or as a side tactic along with melee. 1 or 2 people used saber throw exclusively". For someone who is accusing 98% of people of being immature, you sure arn't showing much maturity of your own. All you have done is flame them and call them immature teenagers. Grow up. In the words of Tyler Durden: Look at yourself! You're ****in pathetic! Stop trying to control everything and just let go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voldos Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 im aloud to xpress an opinion on wat i think and geez sorry if i sounded so mean but i honestly think that complaining about one of the moves that you can use because its used to often is a load of bull if you dont like it then deal with it you cant have everything you want and you cant have everyone folowing the way you play the game thats like saying "raven why did you bother putting lightsabres in the game because everyone is useing em" jus my opinion dont bite my hed off for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zek Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 I don't normally like feeding the trolls, but I have two points to make: 1.) 98% is an utterly ridiculous number. I see saber throw *****s as maybe 10% of the people I duel, at most. 2.) I honestly don't understand what you're talking about if you think it's an overpowered tactic; your only argument is that it's annoying, basically. I agree, it's annoying; then I kill them easily and get to duel someone else. I can't remember the last time I lost to someone who only threw their saber. It should also be noted that saber throw costs a couple bars of force power, and you don't regenerate while it's in mid-throw: someone who uses it constantly will be out of force very quickly, at which point they're pretty much screwed.

Jedi_Overlord Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 I find this whole line of reasoning to be a bit warped. All these people who yell cheat, and unfair when they lose, it's ridiculous. I admit, I sometimes find it annoying when I get tossed off a cliff, but that's the game. There are counters, and there are hundreds of ways to play. If you don't like it, avoid those people who do it consistantly. With thousands, nearly millions of people on every day, you can afford to be picky.

MankaCat Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 sure a lot of cheaters and llamas are teenagers, but I'm sure there are just as many who AREN'T big morons. All the time as an admin, you find most lame-type individuals are in their teens, but do you also question all the people who don't act like dolts? The truth is, most of the people playing games (a little less so with PC games) these days are teenagers, and they can't all be idiots Edit: P.S. Idolt is an awesome new insult it's sweeping the nation sheesh Swamp, get with the times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
