NewBJedi Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 You keep reading about it: These newbies are ruining the game! Stop whining about newbies, you were once as well. Get the person's attention and have a small in-game chat. Offer to show the newbie what you know and get him interested in playing the game with skill. Offer to duel him and take a few minutes of your precious time to show the newbie how to swing a saber, kick people, use force push and pull correctly, etc. Once that 'newbie' learns how cool it is to play well, he'll be wanting to learn more and focus on developing skills instead of just randomly trying things out. Commentary: I believe it's our obligation as we become more 'seasoned players' to show the 'newbies' how to play better instead of just complaining about them all the time or calling them names. It's the only true way to make this a better community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBJedi Posted May 6, 2002 Author Share Posted May 6, 2002 Yah, it's great fun. I wish more people did it. I find at the end of the night I accomplished something more than just scoring a bunch of kills or refining some skills.

Vestril Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 If someone is curious and polite only a real jerk wouldn't help them, that or someone who's too busy playing the game at the time. What I don't like are people who demand to know things, and get in your face about it. I tend to ignore them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBJedi Posted May 6, 2002 Author Share Posted May 6, 2002 Make sure all files with the extension ".pk3" go into the directory: \Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\base Use Winzip to extract the .zip files. http://www.winzip.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abom|nation Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 There's always one... Back on topic now, yeah - a couple of people have approached me to ask for training or tips on a certain move, it is fun, and the satisfaction of watching your newly-trained jedi beating someone else with the moves you taught them is great!

DarthFreak Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 Yeah, I was once a trainee.. a jedi master called Jedi Knoedel taught me a cool trick (the one where you throw the saber and it circles around you forever). After many tries i got the move and showed my master... it was just plain cool, and we were talking Jedi-like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutek Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 I personally think it's great to show them how to do all this stuff in the game, then watch them go and actually use it. I get such a kick out of that, and it makes all the time you take to train them worth it. I always try and take time to answer a chatted question about "how do you do x?", the only times are when I'm busy being chain duelled or something (Do you ever get that? You really want to go and get healed because you're on 10hp, but three more people turn up just as you finish fighting and you'd feel like you slighted them by running away...)

Flakdampler Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 since we're on the subject of newbies...I'm one, and I've got a question, o masters. How do you "kick" someone, like i've been hearing about? I can wall walk, though, and that's pretty neat. I feel so proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abom|nation Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 You stupid n00b, go read teh manual! Sorry, couldn't resist - to kick someone, all you have to do is run into someone and press jump, you should hopefully kick them. Bear in mind that this only works when force powers are enabled.

Sutek Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 If I train my padawan enough, will he evolve into a Jedi Master? I don't want another Stance Whiner, I have 3 already :> btw, kicking someone requires force jump 2+, that's why it only works with Force enabled. Is a Force Lightning user vulnerable to water based attack? Do Psychic Seeing Jedi take extra damage from physical attacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyrit Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 "Dammit, my padawan won't digivolve!! What level is this moron, anyway??" "Remember now, take your padawan out for walks at least three times a day. More if they drink a lot of fluids." "Your padawan will not want to take baths, but it is your duty as mentor to keep him free of ticks and fleas." Oh I could go on all day.
