PowerBroker Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 What's wrong with using a legal attack?
wassup Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 ya i know seriously why would raven even have put it into the game if its a "cheat"? tell those wussies to shape up and start practicing their skillz instead of whining all day.

Yea...okay...great. So now people think saber throw is cheating? IMHO spamming *any* move gets boring (DFA, lunge, lightning, crouch, rolling, jumping). If you spam throw 24/7, you are a boring player. But it has nothing to do with cheating. If you have sacrificed your force points in saber throw, you should use it...unless you're dumb. People tend to whine no matter what you do. Today someone complained about "Force-whores" in a Full Force FFA. ........... Amazing.
Toa Tahu Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 For me I rarely use saber throw in MP because it causes SO little damage at times and is sometimes real hard to aim.In fact,once,my saber NEVER returned to me(someone placed some scripts on me,of course) and I had to die just to get it back.I wanted to take a screenshot but somehow it won't work.Sh@t!
Kainite Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 I'm sure anyone whose been playing this game longer than a few months has lost their saber, its something to do with animation getting interupted mid throw. Just go round kicking people till you get killed
JNK_Icer_cold Posted November 30, 2002 Author Posted November 30, 2002 Well they seeem to think in a duel it should be no force at all and just saber to saber no throwing and well part of my tactics are to let you jump to me i move you eat a throwen saber but in a duel people seem to think that well throwing is for lossers :atat:
Toonces Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 When I play on duel servers (which is rare) I don't toss my saber, but I've got no problem with people who do. Every tactic has a counter
Matt-Liell Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 so i guess vader was "cheating" when he threw his saber at luke eh? its not cheating just another skill to master!
Wolf Devil Posted December 1, 2002 Posted December 1, 2002 The idiocy of online gamers never ceases to amaze me. Its amazing to see how many things people believe is cheating. I almost never use saber throw in Jedi Outcast (In JK-SBX 3.1 it's a must for me!), except in a limited (some disabled) force game.. especially at the coky (... uh, the board recognized it as cuss word...) n00bs who try to kick me to death (you forgot that one, Solar). It's not cheating, but I do find it annoying when someone who's good with it comes along and kills me with it over and over.. but eh. I suck anyways
griff38 Posted December 1, 2002 Posted December 1, 2002 Seems like a big waste of force points to me, saber throw is good for sp and bots but not against a thinking human being. Honestly I can't remember the last time someone killed me with a saber throw.
ryudom Posted December 1, 2002 Posted December 1, 2002 i just think throw should have some more penalties. the only reason vader threw his saber was cause luke was inexperiences and was caught off guard. it would be incredibly easy for a jedi to gain control of a saber throw at him if he expected it. i just think there should be more of a loss/risk when using it.
Wolf Devil Posted December 1, 2002 Posted December 1, 2002 Maybe Artifex will come up with somthin for the next ProMod
Rad Blackrose Posted December 1, 2002 Posted December 1, 2002 Two words: Pull Throw. It works on the ignorant, and I only use it when I see someone abusing the boomerang.
Wolf Devil Posted December 2, 2002 Posted December 2, 2002 Uuuhh.... B-b-boomerang? I thought we were talking about saber throw
Skate Boy Posted December 2, 2002 Posted December 2, 2002 How is it cheating if it's a normal force power?
JNK_Icer_cold Posted December 2, 2002 Author Posted December 2, 2002 Well thanks all for the replies i did not exp. to get this many well there are still people that say no saber throwing in a duel Hmm i think its good but as every one says and i agree nebies are what is good for and well if there back is to you:atat:
Hekx Posted December 2, 2002 Posted December 2, 2002 Bots love saber throw.... and lightning.. but that's another story... I sometimes allocate points towards Saber Throw, but Team Heal is more worth the points
lllKyNeSlll Posted December 3, 2002 Posted December 3, 2002 umm add more penalties to sab throw? it is weak already. and the only way its good is to take shields down by pull throwing or dragers. now if it did fifty damage or sixty, it would be more useful for actual kills against drainers or healers. its almost completely useless without pull unless ur trying to hit someone down or in dfa
Acer Palmatum Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 What is it with these people that think anything that can kill them is cheating? What next? "Playing JKII is cheating!" LOL!
GonkH8er Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 It's not cheating per se, but it IS cheap when people just sit back and throw, seeing as it does about 20 damage each time. Sure, the occaisional throw is fine, but people who just throw and throw and throw and stand back so they dont have to get near you are cheap. I prefer servers with throw disabled.
Carnival Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 like someone just said...there is always a counter...personally i dont care if someone uses sabre throw all the time, is a lighting whore or speed freak thats just the way they play...ever wonder if your style of fighting was annoying to them? exactly so personally i say let anyone play how they want to within the set papametres of the server ( cept cheating - they should be auto kicked and banned as well as getting someone to come round their house and kicking their ass/es ) ...personally i leave in peace...
lllKyNeSlll Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 long range throws are useless, unless ffa when u can get a lucky hit off 2 ppl. so ppl who sit back and throw prolly won't kill. throws are best used in a pull kick combo to add 30 damage.
