master_thomas Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 I may be wrong, but didn't the dismemberment in JK2 only occur at the model joints? For the truly full dismemberment to work, there must be a huge number of joints. That could be bad for fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree that adding too many severance points would have a detrimental effect on performance. I doubt we will see realistic saber damage in MP for that reason, again...

Toa Tahu Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I don't know whether anyone has noticed this or not,but notice the Twi'Lek's right arm wielding the saber,there's also a scorch mark there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro The Hutt Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I think it's the Force Rage effect, they did mention that the MP only powers would now be in SP too. so my guess it's the Force Rage effect coursing through that dark Jedi apprentice person.

XanaJedi Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 thats quit cool, but he got hit by a lightsaber.... aint that armor suppose to come off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Just an FYI...the recent PCGamer article had some nice screenshots, and I found some further evidence of saber damage on the characters - so unless they decide to take it out...I reckon we'll get to see it in-game.

MuRaSaMuNe Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Hmm maybe chop off someones arm to make them weaker? Or cut off their leg to slow them down... that'd be coo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro The Hutt Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 That would make it somewhat like Bushido Blade, and now that I look at those dark apprentice gits close up..... seems like the skin is supposed to look that way all the time. Perhaps they're now using something glowy that gives regular dark jedi person followers Force abilities O_o who's to tell at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertogJan Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Woa those look great!! Now you can actually SEE when you have hit your opponent. I've had several duels were I though I hit him hard, but he didn't have a scratch Now you can SEE the scratches, whoo hooo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taos Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Thanks for those pics Stormy! This is one part about JO that I did not like - you couldn't see where you hit your opponent. I like being able to know that I am causing damage. It's so much more of a confidence builder to know that I'm destroying someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro The Hutt Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Yet again, I think it's simply part of the skin, since all the dark jedi lads seem to have the same marks on the same places (also, if you'd have a lightsaber scratch by your face you wouldn't be standing for long *points up at an earlier pic* ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Tahu Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 But I meant to say her forearm...did anyone notice that?And,if it's not a scorch mark,what is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the dead Dark Jedi lying on the ground in the first pic, no marks at all. And also, they're at diffrent parts of the body, wich means that if they were a part of the skin, they would have to make a bunch of skins with marks at diffrent places. Also, the Twi'lek also have them (and only in that pic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a wider view of the first pic... As you can see, the other enemies haven't really been damaged yet...but if you look carefully at the damaged guy, he is wearing exactly the same costume. An unfortunate case of the clone syndrome...but there you have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardz Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 [slightly off topic] i know the game is in early development but I hope those people with the masks over their faces aren't the bad guys, they just look like a joke.. Bad dudes need to look...well... BAD! W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorace Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Dynamic wounds decals are cool and all but it's not a show maker/breaker for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, it won't make or break the game, but it's nice to have all the same. It would also be nice to see a return of realistic saber damage...i.e., limbs etc., being cut off. wardz...good to see you posting again. Yeah...you're right, they should look even meaner than they do. It's a pity we're seeing a lot of clone troopers again...I was hoping for more variety in appearance. Also, why do these enemy Jedi always have to be human-like in appearance? If we're able to choose different races to play as a Jedi, shouldn't the enemies be a good mix of races as well?

XanaJedi Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 It would also be cool it that, code for limo hacking would be on default, so every server will let u chop a arm of a leg or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Tahu Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Yeah,it adds up to the fun of knowing where you hit your enemy.Sometimes,it's good to know an enemy is helpless once you cut off both arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
