Will you be able to select any color of lightsaber?

I think the light saber combat is probably harder to replicate while keeping it usable for a FPS. But with KOTOR being an rpg and not having the multiplayer problems, balancing between realfights and playablility for everyone, this game should have some great saber fighting.

Definitely. the producers and designers have already said that lightsaber battles galore will be throughout the game. Do you notice a sort of pattern with lightsaber colors?

 

EPISODE 1 : Qui-Gon Jinn (Master) : Green Saber

: Obi Wan (Padawan) : Blue Saber

 

 

EPISODE 2 : Obi-Wan Kenobi(Master) : Green Saber

: Anakin Skywalker(Padawan) : Blue Saber

: Yoda (Master of Masters) : Green Saber

 

 

Of course, this entire theory is invalidated to a point in Episode IV

 

Ben Kenobi : Blue Saber

 

Luke Skywalker : Blue Saber

 

EPISODE V

 

Luke, not yet a Jedi : Blue Saber

 

EPISODE VI : Luke, a full Jedi : Green Saber

 

Just a theory.

Err minor problemo...

Obi-Wan used a blue sabre in Episode II and probably will use blue again in Episode III (he used a blue in Episode IV)...

 

No but I think Lightsabre colour denotes nothing but perhaps individual choice on the Jedi's behalf.

Episode II shows loads of examples of this (Padawans and Masters with Green or Blue or even Purple).

 

Though Red seems to always be the colour Sith choose...The Episode II Visual Dictionary says this is due to synthetic crystals, which you can believe if you like *shrug*

That's true he did use a blue saber. Just watched the movie again, don't know why I thought Green. Need to get my color blind pills refilled. Oh well, so much for my theory!:D

 

 

The purple saber was a special request by Samuel Jackson to George Lucas, you'll never see one again weilded by another Jedi.

 

The Sith do use synthetic crystals in their sabers that give the sabers a more focused blade that is stronger than the average Jedi saber(though the difference in strength is negligible).

Anakins was blue I'm afraid

 

That's interesting about Samuel L. Jackson.

 

I was hoping there would be a greater colour variety than what there was. Not really a complaint, more an observation.

I think a yellow or two or maybe an orange...I don't know about the orange, but the yellow would be sweet

Ki-Adi-Mundi has a Purple Saber.

 

Well, a theory that could fit in the SW universe is that since Mace uses such an aggressive fighting style (See Ep II Visual Dictionary. IT says that it edges close to Sith fighring), he has to use a mix of Jedi crystals (which are usually blue) and Sith Crystals (which are usually red)

 

Red- + Blue= Purple!

 

(unless I was wrong all of the time during my 2nd Grade art class)

Hey Norin! u didn't say anything wrong. It´s true he had a blue one in the begining of EP2. But remember when OB1 n anakin r captured by dooku they loose their sabers. when the other jedi arrive, one of them gives them new ones n in that time OB's is green.

But your theory still doesn't work cuz in EP4 OB1 has a blue one again...:cheers:

Just a little more info here....

 

 

acording to the new WotC Powers of the Jedi sorce book, lightsaber color has nothing to do with your power in the force or weather your a master or padawan or what kinda fighting style you use...

 

 

It has everything to do with the crystal you use in the lightsaber. And that sometime in the history of the jedi they lost a planet that had a really big suplie of crystals, (i think it was the planet that the sith set of the thought bomb on) so that now the only sorces of crystals they now about give blue and green blades. Thought they do have other sources that give other colors, thouse sources do not have as many crystals and are much rarer.

Actually when Anakin and obi1 were given their new lightsabres Anakin had a green lightsabre and obi1 had a blue lightsabre. All the Jedi in the battle of geonosis had blue and green lightsabres apart from mace windu. But yeah I think it would be kool if u could use different coloured lightsabres like yellow,orange,white. etc
