StormHammer Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I just had a quick look at the Lucasarts official site for JA, and they've had a small update...with 3 new models. One of them is a Tauntaun. Just thought you might like to know. I think they all look very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taos Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 I think it will be quite cool to ride on a taun taun. Thanks for keeping us up to date here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solbe M'ko Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 "Wrunna wrunn!" *falls in snow* *slice* "Ugh! I thought they smelled bad.... on the outside (pant)." The Taun taun's face looked strange. It looked almost stygian. I remember the taun tauns haveing some fur on their faces, and less klingon-esqu ridges. The tail also looked al bit blocky. Still, I'm happy to see new models.

StormHammer Posted May 24, 2003 Author Share Posted May 24, 2003 Originally posted by Count_D00ku Do you complain about everything? Erm..he's just stating his opinion, as far as I can see. And everyone's entitled to do that*. *caveat: in a reasonable manner Anyway, I'm inclined to agree in this instance, about the Tauntaun body. There seem to be a few sharp angles there...and it would be nice if they could be smoothed out a little. As for the head...hmmm...I also don't remember very prominent ridges. But perhaps this is a slightly different breed of Tauntaun. Maybe Tauntauns on Hoth are like big cats on Earth...they come in lots of varieties.

Kurgan Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 I wonder.. will they squirt out transparent guts when cut in the belly with a lightsaber? Probably not, but I can dream can't I? ; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uber_Saber Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 "I want to be a Tauntaun tamer!" "Yes, but if I call up Mr. Aberdale on the phone there, and tell him that I've got a 20-year old former Jedi who wants to be a tauntaun tamer, his first question is not going to be, has he got his own hat."

Wudan Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Hmmm.... Taun Taun guts mod! While we're at it, why don't we just give the Taun Taun his own lightsaber and have him duel against Joe Camel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks nice... LOL It's a better start towards becoming a Tauntaun Tamer than perhaps being a Lumberjack. Perhaps you could start out small. Such as with Kowakian Monkey-Lizards or something. About the model, if I can ride it - I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solbe M'ko Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 What do you have against lumberjacks? They're okay. They sleep all night, and they work all day. Anyway, in the trailer, it looked like the Taun Taun got hit, but the player's character registered the damage. I would be disappointed if the Taun Taun didn't work like the AT-ST, with it's own health and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wudan Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Originally posted by leXX What are you gonna be like when you have to fight the Rancor?[/b] Well, I'm gonna be like, "Oh !@#*&$#*&! It's a Rancor!" Then I'll use the force to drop some big rock on his head. Rancors apparently have a weakness for being crushed or impaled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
