On the other hand they do show signs of respect sometimes--example, when Darth Maul took off his cloak he could have waited until Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon started to take theirs off, then DFA'd!!! :p

Bowing adds to the fun...

As they said, it's respect...isn't it much nicer to watch a duel when they bow and fight instead of one where they just appear and charge at each other?

No matter what, if i want to duel, i will bow...sometimes it's irritating when the guy keeps running at you but i guess i just want to let him know i'm intending to duel without outside interference, running away, or such. Wait...these refer to duels that are in other non-duel games and where i can't start a FFA duel with them either cause it's a different game type or other people are dueling.

As for those guys who just run at me when my saber is off and i'm bowing, if i notice it, i'll run backwards and try to find another time for bowing. If i'm bowing and they attempt to strike me, usually these are those who aren't that powerful so i usually manage to ignite my saber just in time to block or if time permits, turn 180 degrees and slice them in half while taking a certain amount of damage from their first shot. Lame attacks deserves lame backswing kills.

I do find it irritating too, when i try to type a message and they run towards me or throw a saber. can't they let me say something? :confused:

I tend to think lowly of those who don't bow. No offence, i just mean that when they don't bow, it gives makes me think i am not fighting some pro with deadly attacks from all over.

Rebellious by not bowing? Not really since bowing isn't a in-game must so those who do it aren't compelled to buy do it voluntarily. Whine? No, the few times when i got killed when bowing, i just sent out a '...'. But really, it's very rare to be killed unawares instantly while bowing because it would require those 1 shot kills. If they try a backswing, i should probably have looked up already to notice them charging. It's only when they do that heavy stance heavy hack but even then it's possible to hear the initial swing so i can ignite and strafe away. :D

Killing anyone without their sabers lit is really lame.

 

I bow to show its a friendly fight

 

That is what bowing are for.

 

It is also if you know theres a really many ppl who is waiting to duel, and you just want an unoffical duel with another, so that you don't need to wait that long.

 

*Person bows to another*: "Hey, you want to figth?"

 

*person bows back*: "sure!"

 

*Persons litting their sabers an start figthin*

 

But primely, bowing are for showing that it's a friendly figth. People who just wack the other while he bows, are real lamers who just want to get another lame frag.

I dont have the game but for me, bowing shows realism.

 

Its things like that , that make a game good.

 

 

For example,

 

In a fps, shooting one round of revolver, then when you reload you on ly reload one round into that chamer.

 

In jk2, being able to ignite your saber, having duels, bowing

 

other games, just detail and all, like dust and cans rolling around.

 

All these are what makes a good game to me. Realism is what

I like.

I've played online only three or four times. (avoids things being thrown)

 

 

Thats why I dont bow. Only one person bowed to me, and we had cheats activated, so I went a wackin at him. He thought it was funny.

 

Blast! This is why I hate flying!
