My review of Jedi Outcast

[Darth Viscera]

*Plays the single player game for a while*

Wow. this sucks kidney stones.

*Plays the multiplayer game for a while*

Holy crap. *uses force jump* feels like a geico commercial! w00t!
</review>

[Darth Viscera]

*Waits for JK2 Spork to come out so he can play void again*

[Alpha]

What's the system requirements for that sucker? I forgot...:)

[Moltar]

It's already out?

WTF??

[Admiral Lebron]

It better be damn good. You talking with me for it!

[Darth Viscera]

I pre-ordered it on ebworld.com with next day FedEx. I can't figure out how to work it. With RTCW, you could just get on and start killing. This game is really complex, and you have to time your saber slashes just right to circumvent the peculiarities of the game. That's why I can't wait for the spork mod, to play a game of void in the Naboo power core level.

[ReaperFett]

SP is............great


MP(bots, anyway) is.......................great



Guess what, it's great :)

[Alec Lafeyette]

So is it good or bad? I can't find a single review anywhere.

[JungleCat]

I'm going straight after to work to myself a copy of JK2 at the fry's Electronics just down the street! I've been waiting for this game!

:crack

[ReaperFett]

Alec, all the reviews I have read have been glowing.


The only real gripes Ive found(so far) are there arent enough skins with enough variety, the ease of getting stuck in them at times, and one level cant finish if you do something in a particular way(its a bug, confirmed)

[JungleCat]

Well, for that bug, they should probably be releasing a patch pretty soon. As to the skins, just wait, if they don't do anything, the fans will. There'll be quite a few skins soon.

[ReaperFett]

They are, Raven worker type said they were looking into it right now:)


Doesnt help me get past level 4 though, does it? :)

[Alec Lafeyette]

:rollin

This...

this sucks kidney stones
...had me worried.

[Morgan Evanar]

Its running on a modified Q3 engine soooo....

Sys requirements.

Bare minimum:
500MHZ P3/ Athlon.
TNT2/ Voodoo3 class card.
128 MB RAM

To make it pretty:

~800 MHZ p3/ Athlon
GeForce 2 GTS/ ATI Radeon DDR
256 MB RAM

Make it Drool-worthy

1GHz Athlon/ P3. 1.4 GHz P4
GeForce 3 Ti200/ Radeon 8500 or better.
256+ MB RAM, Preferably DDR/ RAMBUS

[Darth Vader]

Yay I can run it.

I'll worry about the better graphics card later.

[ReaperFett]

WOAH! I CAN PLAY ONLINE! Granted, only duels(until I do some tinkering), and local, but I didnt expect this.

...No matter the game, there is no escape from ReaperFett the trickster Jedi, king of bugging people with pranks involving pushing and large drops off Nar Shaddaa :)

[Champion of the Force]

Make it Drool-worthy

1GHz Athlon/ P3. 1.4 GHz P4
GeForce 3 Ti200/ Radeon 8500 or better.
256+ MB RAM, Preferably DDR/ RAMBUS
With the exception of the video card, I'm in that group. :)

[ReaperFett]

If you use Voodoo you'll need to DL some drivers.

[Shawn]

Well, this one certainly snuck under my radar. O_o

[ReaperFett]

What, JO getting released? Yeah, they used special stealth trucks to take the stealth CDs to stealth shops. Only reason I found it was because I walked into a stealth wall. On the bonus side, I paid with stealth money.
















:)

[imported_QuiGonJ]

Hmm, on the first level, I think I figured out why the Imps lost the GCW. Are we quite sure Luke didn't say "I can't hit a thing with this blaster?"

Point blank range and you miss? I guess the Imps really did get weapons from the lowest bidder.

[Shawn]

People can miss at point blank range, you know. :p

[ReaperFett]

Yeah, but aint the AI great? Im on normal, and one Stormie still managed to make me run int a room full of them :)

And then the way they try outflanking you :)

[imported_QuiGonJ]

Oh yeah Shawn, I forgot about Greedo.... :D

[ReaperFett]

Just had my first SP sabre fight. WOW!

He swung at me, I stepped back, I tried to push him over, he blocked it. Our sabres locked, I won, and slashed him down the middle. Nice :)

And then the level before, I did a roll to avoid a shot, threw my sabre as I was getting up, taking him out. This is how all games should be :)




AND AS A NOTE: SPEAKING OF THINGS SPECIFICALLY IN THE GAME IS CONSIDERED A SPOILER. USE THE TAGS PEOPLE

[ReaperFett]

More cool stuff:

-Door opens. Gran tosses a Thermal. I push him and his friend over. What I didnt expect, was for the Thermal to go too, as the door shut :)


-Throwing your sabre, missing, but takes them out on the return :)


-Throwing your sabre and kebabing three :)





Oh, found two moves I dont THINK are in the manual. I'll spoiler mark them incase you want to found them:

WALL JUMP: Move into wall, jump
WALL RUN: move into and next to wall(diagnal) and press jump

[Lady Vader]

Make it Drool-worthy

1GHz Athlon/ P3. 1.4 GHz P4
GeForce 3 Ti200/ Radeon 8500 or better.
256+ MB RAM, Preferably DDR/ RAMBUS

With the exception of the video card, I'm in that group.

Yeah, what COTF said. Cept my video card will soon be upgraded (probably in another month) thanks to my increasing cash flow! :D :rollin

And Fett, those moves sounds AWESOME! Can't wait to crack the box open!!!

:crack

[Morgan Evanar]

Which group are you and COTF then? A crummier video card automatically knocks you down a notch =\

This game seems to be really fillrate dependant. Of course CPU and RAM make a difference, but if you are CPU limited, you can always increase the resolution until you take a framerate hit.

[Lady Vader]

Well, Morg, all I know is I have a 1.7 GHz P4 and 256+ MB RAM (forgot exact number). But I think I only have a TNT2 video card right now. So... maybe I'd fall in the middle range?

Either way, I plan on getting a kick-ass video card in about a month and placing it into my new comp. The old comp will get the TNT2 until I upgrade the opperating system to something a lil better.

[imported_QuiGonJ]

My 550 with a GeForce3 ti200 seems to be doing fine at 16-bit 1024x768.

[EDIT: I made it to the mine now.]

This game is growing on me. :)

[Alpha]

I have a higher up P3 chip, so I'm in between barely makes it and the other one. I'm trying to gt enough money up for a P4, but that seems like it's turning into a lost cause. :(

And another thing. why don't they call this DFIII? It's the third Dark Forces, but now they're just sticking to Jedi Knight II? sorry, that has been bugging me for a while...:)

[ReaperFett]

Because hes a Jedi :)

I have a P3 450, 128MB RAM and a Voodoo3 3000. After I got the Voodoo patch, it has been more or less flawless.

[Lady Vader]

Do ya suppose I should download a patch for my TNT2, or it probably wouldn't make a hoot of difference?

[Darth Viscera]

UPDATE YOUR DRIVERS!!!!!

sorry for yelling, but if you're running a video card that's 5 generations old, you'll probably squeeze out another 2% with the latest Dets.

[Shawn]

Actually, she could probably get a whole lot more than 2% if she's running really old drivers.

[Morgan Evanar]

I think we all have different perceptions of "running smooth."

My perception: All details cranked to max, maybe a minor thing ommitted, 1024x768, 32 bit color, and an absolute minimum of 30 FPS during a worst case scenario: Tons of enemies, effects etc.

Rie: What a mightly unbalanced system =\ A GeForce 3 Ti200 will make a WORLD of difference. Buy online, and get the Gainward(manufacturer). Its garunteed to hit GeForce 3 normal speeds, and will likely go to Ti500 speeds. While you may not understand this, tis a Good Thing (TM).

Shawn: her system is new. And the 12.41 (12.90 if you are will to use uncertified drivers) set provided the best performance on XP for all of the cards previous to the GeForce 3.

2k: I think the 7.50s were really good... but you'd prolly have some compatability issues with newer games.

I myself use the latest nVidia reference drivers 28.something with Win2k, but I have a mildly OCd GeForce 3 Ti200 (195 Core 215/430 mem) =D

[Darth Viscera]

Hmm...maybe I should read the instructions for this game. That might explain why my performance is so sporadic.

[Champion of the Force]

Which group are you and COTF then?
I've only got a GeForce 2 MX400 (64 mb) at the moment. Everything else is above and beyond what's required by the look of it though (Athlon 1600XP, 256 DDR Ram etc etc etc)

[ReaperFett]

My version of running smooth: More or less at the top of the detail level, at full speed.

[Darth Viscera]

mmm...I love this game.

*yawns as four Sith attack him with sabers drawn, ala the simpson's version of three musketeers. One saber stab turns all four (who happen to be in a column) into sheesh kabob.*

If anyone goes near me, force grip+ force push will send them falling off the catwalk. with spork, you could use the grappling hook to spider-man your way back up, which is fun. JOTM_NeO is back, baby! Muwhahaha!

[ReaperFett]

Nar Shadda MP is great for that. Push, and they go DOWN! :)

[Admiral Lebron]

I need a better computer to play it. GRR! :grumble :verymad It's not fair! :( :cry

[ReaperFett]

What you got?

[Admiral Lebron]

A HP N3250 Pavillion. Upgraded the 64 Ram to 192 RAM and added an additional 40 Gig externally.

Basically it has:

475 AMD K-6 2
Trident CyberBlade i7 AGB Moniter
ESS Maestro 3 (I think) for video and stuff (or its a 3D Now card)
5 Gig of HD internally, 40 Gig externally
DVD-ROM 8x
192 RAM


That should sum it up.

[ReaperFett]

That might do

[Admiral Lebron]

Actually...I'd use my dads downstairs...

1.7 Gig Athalon
120 Gig Hard drive

That's all I know of the top of my head...but I know it handles Civ III well..

[Darth Viscera]

Trident CyberBlade i7 AGP Video Card
ESS Maestro 3 sound card

not monitor/video card

[Admiral Lebron]

Well... I was close.

[Lady Vader]

Ok, how bout I:

A.) download the latest drivers for my TNT2, just to help along performance, like Visc and Shawn suggested...

and...

B.) also look into the market for that card-thing Chris mentioned (dude, I will need to have ya online when i look for this).

Now, where do I go about finding said drivers? Just on their website, or somewhere else?

[imported_QuiGonJ]

http://www.nvidia.com :)

[JungleCat]

Thanks QGJ. :)

Now I just have to figure out which I click on: Win XP/2000 or Win XP 64 bit.

What would be the difference?

[Sage Hazzard]

Why I don't get PC games and why I can't get this one:

Pentium 2 or 3, I forget and am too lazy to look.
366 MHZ
32 MB Ram
32x CD-ROM
3.2 GB HD (50 MB free)

It's a wonder I can do what I can with this hunk of junk.

[Champion of the Force]

It's a wonder I can do what I can with this hunk of junk.
You could donate it to the museum. :p

But anyway, a question for those who have played it - what are your thoughts on the single player game?

(after getting burnt on Return to Castle Wolfenstein's joke of a story I'd like to avoid another occurence here)

[ReaperFett]

This is a good story IMO. Much better than the first one

[Darth Viscera]

I'd like to check out the story, but I can't figure out how to noclip my way past level 4 :(

[ReaperFett]

[SHIFT] + [`]
helpusobi 1
noclip



Thatll do it.


Level 4 eh? Took me a while to figure.

[Darth Viscera]

[SHIFT] + [`]
devmapall
noclip

That'll also do it. I can't find the exit while the power core is collapsing everything around me.

[imported_QuiGonJ]

XP/2000. The 64 bit WinXP is for a specialized processor, the 64-bit Intel Itanium, which begins at $2700 just for the chip. I think it's safe to say only Marcus might have access to one. :)

btw everyone, we have a CCnet MP server running now... go to the brand-new CCnet Muliplayer Gaming forum for the details. See you on the battlefield!

[ReaperFett]

Ill lag you all to hell and back :)

[imported_QuiGonJ]

yeh 660 lag for you was bad at that :)


Fun round though.

[Darth Viscera]

wooh! *checks his encoder* I'll be there in 2 hours, 18 minutes :)

[ReaperFett]

I kept up with you guys though :)


ALthough I think I was trying to do the flip kick kill a BIT too much :)

[Darth Viscera]

Connection Interrupted...can't move...now I'm here.

[Marcus Telcontar]

XP/2000. The 64 bit WinXP is for a specialized processor, the 64-bit Intel Itanium, which begins at $2700 just for the chip. I think it's safe to say only Marcus might have access to one.


To XP 64 bit? Absolutly. An Itanium? No, not yet. Yet :)

[ReaperFett]

Hey Vis, hows it feel to be disintegrated by me? :)

[Darth Viscera]

Silly. I wasn't disintegrated, my body just fell behind the building :) Nice shot!

[Sage Hazzard]

I was surfing theforce.net and found this thing for a double bladed sabre. It only works in multiplayer, atleast that's what it says. Direct quote:


Dual Saber in Jedi Outcast
Sun, Mar 31, 02 07:26:33 PM EST

A very special thanks goes out to the people/groups that are credited for finding this out: Dan (OnlyOneCanoli), JediKnightII.net Forums, spite, and Toshiya[RAVEN]. He are the directions to get a double-bladed saber in multiplayer:


1. Start your own server.

2. Pull down console, type in "devmap mapname" [mapname is the name of any map, ffa_deathstar for example].

3. Take out saber, and deactivate it by hitting 1 again.

4. In console, type /THE DESTROYER or \THEDESTROYER [one of them will work]

5. reactivate saber

Dan adds the following comments:

Please not that this will not work in single player. Both blades can hurt enemies and make marks on walls. The animations are the same for the single-bladed saber, so it looks like you slice yourself a lot.

[imported_QuiGonJ]

yes, if we allow cheats.. and I dunno bout that unless we all decide to try it sometime. :)

[ReaperFett]

Just wait for an inevitable mod :)

[Darth Viscera]

SPORK!

[Sanis Prent]

The greatest thing in this game is the ability to throw people when you use Force Grip.

[ReaperFett]

nah, mass pushing off ledges :)

[Sanis Prent]

Nah, thats not violent enough :)

[ReaperFett]

my favourite is dropping ON someone(knocks them over), stand back, wait for them to rise, and do a backflip kick to finish them off :)

[Morgan Evanar]

Finished SP.

Wrummm... Gonna start playing multi tommorow... =p

*sees aallll free time dissapear in a puff of smoke*

[Morgan Evanar]

I played Fett: Teh Winnar is Me!

[ReaperFett]

I had more points in the first round :)


And my team was amazingly inept(Last round, Fewds team won something like 26-4. I got 5 of our 4 :) )


But we was smashing me round like a rag doll. Aside from that one push off the platform :)

[Morgan Evanar]

Yeah, that push was simply stylish for some reason.

[JungleCat]

*Imagines Morg pushing Fett off ledge.*

That's better than my hammer! :lol ;)

[Darth Viscera]

I pushed Fett off a ledge too, you know!

[Sanis Prent]

botmatch = NOT EASY

[ReaperFett]

No Vis, you CHOKED me off a ledge. I pushed you :)

[JungleCat]

*Imagines Visc choking Fett off ledge.*

This could potentially be better than the pushing off ledge which can potentiall be better than the hammer. :lol

[ReaperFett]

You wouldnt be able to choke me, Id simply push you away with the force :)


Or, pull towards, and watch you fly past :)

[JungleCat]

*gasp*

You wouldn't catch me?? What kind of a gentleman are you??

o_O

[imported_QuiGonJ]

Uh, you would be trying to kill him in the game, right? ;)

[ReaperFett]

"Oh look,, shes flying towards me with an ignited sabre. Ill catch her"




:)

[Darth Vader]

I like force jump + force pull. That is evil.

[ReaperFett]

"Follow me my pretties. FLY!








Oh wait, you cant. Well, you should havre thought about that before takeoff"

:)

[JungleCat]

Who said anything about a lightsaber?

*Polishes grenade launcher (forgot techy name)*

:mischief

[ReaperFett]

Imperial Repeater has one.

And not if I rip it out of your grip :)

[Darth Viscera]

Ah, i'll kill you all. Force grip + force jump to amazing height + force push. You'll break a bone..or something. Muwhahahaha!

[ReaperFett]

I wont last time with you, Id win again :)

[Darth Viscera]

Ah, but last time I was playing for kicks, i.e. taking snapshots, teasing people by force gripping them into the air then pushing them away, etc. You have not yet seen me when I get mad :)

[ReaperFett]

anger clouds judgement. Englishness gives flip kick kills. :).

[Morgan Evanar]

I'm not much for playing with force set to Jedi Master... I prefer Knight, I think it forces more thought and specialization.

[ReaperFett]

Doesnt bother me. I can still play my normal setup. Push, pull, go invisable, heal(normally drop one though) :)

[Darth Viscera]

More dedicated then, not angry.

[Shawn]

JK2 is easily the best game I've played in quite some time. The multiplayer along is enough to net it some Game of the Year awards. :)

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I found a way to spawn the really crappy Reborn Dark Jedi guys, and I had a level where I fought 15 at once :)

It looked like a cross between Star Wars and a really good Hong Kong martial arts movie :D

[ReaperFett]

Cirr, WHO found a way? :)

[Taataani Meorrrei]

Well, you did....but it was my idea to have the crazy fight. Not to mention, figure out how to do it without having them all attack at once.

[Lady Vader]

Ok, scuse me while I break up this fight fest, but have a question that i posted in another thread, but no one seemed to notice or reply to it, so I shall bug you here about it also:

"Ok, a lil help from you brainiacs out there...

In the MP, I was able to get the double bladed lightsaber to work. But it only worked once for me. Now when I try to get it to work again, it won't. What am I doing wrong?

This is what I did in the beginning to get the dual saber:

- started my own server

- pulled down console... typed in: devmap ffa_bespin

- hit tab... hit tilde

- took out saber and deactivated it

- pulled down console again

- typed in: \THE DESTROYER

- hit enter

- it automatically gave me my double bladed lightsaber

And that's how I got my double saber.

But now it keeps saying that cheats are disabled or not allowed or something, and I'm wondering what lil key I may have hit to cause this.

HELP!... please?..."

So, to repeat myself... HELP!!! :(

[Morgan Evanar]

you forgot to type "devmapall" first.

[Lady Vader]

You mean before the whole "devmap ffa_bespin"?

[Morgan Evanar]

Or after. After would prolly work better.

[Lady Vader]

Okey. Thanks for the help Morg. I'll try it tonight when I play MP. :)

[ReaperFett]

Youd have to find a chear enabled servr though

[Lady Vader]

Well, I'm testing the saber thingy on my own, using my own comp as a server. When I tried it last night for the first time, it worked fine. But every other time after that when I tried, it said "cheats are not enabled on this server", even though I wasn't connecting to any other server.

Or am I totally not understanding how this whole mp connection works?

For instance, last night LL and I tried to get a game going, just from my comp to his, or vice versa, but for some reason when i tried to connect, I wasn't getting a list of servers, and when he tried to connect to me, he wasn't seeing my server. So, I am at a loss on how this whole connection thing for MP works. It's a bit different from what i'm used to (i.e. typing in phone number, IP addy connection, etc)

[ReaperFett]

when you go to join, check it actually says internet, and not local :)

[Lady Vader]

I did... it still shows me no servers

[ReaperFett]

and then press get new list :)

[Lady Vader]

I did... still nothing... though if I'd host, I'd still get ppl coming in. It's like they could see me, but if i tried to find a server, I couldn't see it. It was weird.

I'll try again tonight, though.

[ReaperFett]

Well, IM me if you get troubles. My super intellect(;)) should work the problem out. I normally get all the problems within a day or purchase :)

[Lady Vader]

Thanks, Fett, I'll do that. :)

[TheHolo.Net]

I would never have completed single player with my dexterity issues :x (is missing the fingers on his left hand from an old accident) if not for the help of my little brother working the Force power controls for me. :)

[imported_QuiGonJ]

I've been meaning to hash this out for CCnet, so here...

In XP, go to the start menu and find the Run... option

Run "Command.com" which will give you a DOS box

Type in "ipconfig", which will then tell you your IP

Give that info to whoever is trying to connect to you.

In the game, click on "Add favorite" type in the IP number, click on connection type to "favorite" and you should be all set.

[TheHolo.Net]

That'll work for some people if they are on dial up or cable/DSL with static IP and no firewall, me however....notta chance since that just gives me my NAT network IP which is unreachable from outside. :p

Isn't brave enough to try multiplayer with his dexterity problems anyway though. :o

[Shawn]

Join a multiplayer game as a spectator - it's really worth checking out at least once.

Or just play, anyway... The only Force power I use in MP is Healing.

[ReaperFett]

push and heal for me. Push a lot :)

[Lady Vader]

*Receives a sick menatl image*

:x :x :x


Thanks for the tips, QGJ. :)

[ReaperFett]

Who from?

[Lady Vader]

Fett... after your last post (:lol I almost spelled "push") you have to ask?!?!

[ReaperFett]

yes :)

[Lady Vader]

My last post should give you a hint, seeing as how the word "push" was still stuck in my memory. O_o :headache :x

:p

[ReaperFett]

Well, nice you think about me :)

[Lady Vader]

*With nothing to say, she does the next best thing*

*:headbash Fett!!!*

[ReaperFett]

No denial, just smashing my head in :)


There was a cool Hammer in Blade 2 :)

[Shawn]

You know... I'm having far more fun playing JK2 than I did Half-Life. I think it may have set a new benchmark for FPS games. The story is good, the graphics are drool-worthy, and running around with Force powers and a Lightsabre is just plain fun. Especially using Force speed to run around a room and hack up a bunch of enemies without getting scratched.

[ReaperFett]

I dont think its the best game ever, but its my favourite ever(And eys, theres a diffrence :) )

[Shawn]

I didn't say that. I just said that it's better than HL. :)

The best game ever would be a tie between System Shock 2 and Thief Gold, IMO.

[Miryan no Trunks]

Pff, no way.. Smash Bros Melee for best game ever =P

*Stands in the sudden silence, as everyone turns towards him with strange looks on their faces..*

what? It is =|

[ReaperFett]

I didnt say you did, I was just saying my opinion :)

[JungleCat]

Yay! ot dual ls to work!

Ok, now I just need help with the whole respawning thing. :)

[ReaperFett]

One sec, I'll find the commands :)

I want to find out how to change the SP character myself. I can change the sabre, but I want to play through as a Rebel Pilot :)

[ReaperFett]

http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38080

Now say thanks and be thankful :)

[ReaperFett]

Oh, I have a full list of the spawnables, but I will give you them in private, so I dont spoil the game for others :)

[JungleCat]

Thankee Fett! Just send it to this name if you haven't already. :)

[ReaperFett]

I sent it. You know :)

[Alec Lafeyette]

How do you "bring down console" for the double bladed lightsaber? I don't see that anywhere.

[ReaperFett]

[SHIFT] + [`]

[Alec Lafeyette]

Ah that does the trick, now I just need to figure out how to enable cheats. :huh

[ReaperFett]

helpusobi 1

[Alec Lafeyette]

Thank you :)

[Shawn]

/devmap all seems to turn on the cheats as well.

(After I finished the fight with Tavian, my game crashed. :x I had already spent about 10 minutes fighting her, and didn't want to do it again, so I turned on God mode. Morgan was here... he saw the whole thing.)

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

www.jediknightii.net

download the single player "Ladder" match.

You vs 56 Dark Jedi. No health packs, no added weapons. No second chances. Enemies range from Red-hood Reborn Dark Jedi, all the way to Desann himself. All to the tune of Prodigy's "Smack my Bitch up".

If you can beat all of them without using a single cheat, you are a badass :)

Thanks to Fett for the tip :)

[ReaperFett]

53! :)

I can complete it, but I end up running round the arena healing as 4 Reborn chase me :)

[Shawn]

That's probably what I'll wind up doing. Trying to do some other things first. Try it out in a bit.

[Gav Mortis]

Garrett gave me those cheats but I don't like using em at all, it makes the game boring, plus I ain't completed it yet so I don't wont to spoil the fun.

On a side not, won my first multiplayer game, go me. :)

[ReaperFett]

But that was after yesterday, when I killed you with the backwards stab :)

[Gav Mortis]

And I started running away.

...I have no shame. :)

[ReaperFett]

You missed the best though. THeres an underground bit on yavin, and I was duelling with someone. I ran on the wall, so he did it. Minutes later, we're just showing off :)

[Shawn]

Bah, that map was much easier than I thought it would be. :) I thought Tavion would be a problem (since I had a hard time with her in the normal game). But I zapped her with Force Lightening and she went flying out the window (quite literally!). I didn't even heal through the whole thing.

Insanely fun, though... I do plan on playing it multiple times.

http://learndifferent.clanpages.com/misc/ladder.jpg

Desaan was the only one who really hurt me. I started the fight with him at 100 health / 38 armor. Finished it with 58 health.

[ReaperFett]

THe window was funny. First time it broke was a Reborns sabre missing me. We both went :)

[Lady Vader]

I'm having waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much fun with this game (though at the moment I'm stuck in the sp... but not for long). The mp kicks major booty! I am so freakin addicted! I run home from work just to get on the comp and play. On a few occassions I've even missed dinner (or forgotten about it). :lol This game will probably ebnd up killing me!

[imported_QuiGonJ]

I've met Billy Dee Williams (in the game)... cool that's it's really him as Lando. :)

[Lady Vader]

I've met Billy Dee Williams (in RL and in the game). Actually, just met him yesterday, as a matter of fact (in the game).

It was funny cause I was thinking "wow, they got someone that really sounds like him!", and then my friend came over and was looking at the credits in the manual and he read allowed "Lando played by Billy Dee Williams". I started cracking up.

:rollin

[ReaperFett]

He's 65 these days

[imported_QuiGonJ]

I found out at lunchtime I know someone else in the Jedi Knight 2 manual, or rather he knows me. And no, not the real me, but QuiGonJ.

Shug_Ninx, aka Haden Blackman, provided continuity assistance for Jedi Knight 2. He answered a question of mine about the size of the manual for the game Star Wars Galaxies. :)

He's the planet designer for Star Wars Galaxies, one of the authors of The Essential Guide to Characters, and the author of a number of Dark Horse comic books, including an upcoming Jango Fett two-parter.

QuiGonJ: I just read those Jango Fett comics the other day. Pretty good. Kind of strange, seeing him without his helmet on. :)

I always go by Alec Lafeyette. As for servers, I heard CCnet has one but I don't know how to find it.

But here's a problem


I don't know how to find it

mmm..good times. I was playing this guy in CTF_NS_STREETS, and he kept on trying to lob thermal detonators at me. Well soon after the thermal detonators would leave his hand, I would instinctively force push them back to him, and they'd explode against him. He kept saying "How?" and I kept saying "mmm, controls all things, the force does. Motion, weapons. Save you it can."

I was walking around the map in an omnipotent sate of mind, that is to say, lightsaber disengaged, and walking instead of running. A guy would jump towards me, saber drawn, and a simple force grip+push would end them. It's really cool to lob a rocket back at your attacker using force push :)

:D

We have a multiplayer gaming forum for those interested in such things. :)

I finished the single-player game today, and that last battle was lame. Won't give my strategy, but I won outright in what Mortal Kombat would have called a "Flawless Victory".

[Alec Lafeyette]

Has anyone figured out what those buttons on the side of the room do? I know they activate that red beam for a short time, but I don't know what it does.

[Gurney Devries]

You walk into the red beam and it makes you invincible.

[Alec Lafeyette]

Now you tell me, lol :grumble

cools on reading the Jango comic. I read part of it at the bookstore, looked good. :)

Oh, does anyone here have Alien vs. Predator 2? Thinking about trying it MP tomorrow night.
