Melting walls/doors with saber?

Puskis · 03-19-2002, 12:11 PM

Yes, could it be done? I mean you could melt locked doors if you don´t have any other way. It could be implemented in the lightsaber force... It would just be cool.

I have read that you will be required to cut through things from time to time in the game, but, i dont know if you can do it to EVERY door, or if the developers have to "tag" doors in a certain way so that they can be cut through (that would translate to one door where they intended it being cuttable, but another one not being cuttable)

Well even if it's possible, sure would take alot of the adventuring out of the game. "Curses, this door is locked and it's too thick to just cut through, I'll melt it!" instead of "Curses, this door is locked, I'll look for a way to open it"

Cracken · 03-19-2002, 12:23 PM

Uh...melting it IS a way to open it.

Pedro The Hutt · 03-19-2002, 12:25 PM

No, afterwards you need to be able to close it again, melting it equals DESTROYING a door. Not opening.

Cracken · 03-19-2002, 12:30 PM

Why would you need to close it again? Cutting it open wouldn't allow you to close it.

what happens in you cut a circle in a window on, say, a ship on outer space ?? do you loose the mission, that would be relistic anyway

anyway, raven said you would need the lightsabre to solve some puzzles..

Ive said before but ill say it again. A while back raven commented on this and said that you would be able to insert your lighstaber into doors ala TPM with qui gon. This has not been restated as of late, but since it came from raven, its a possibility.. My advice to you..go into a coma for 2 weeks and when u come out youll know

Cracken · 03-19-2002, 12:45 PM

Being in a coma must be great. Think of it, you're still alive, but you have no responsibility. Plus, people feed you and take care of you 24/7. Like being a baby, except without all the stupid adults making silly noises to amuse you.

Puskis · 03-19-2002, 01:21 PM

So, if I understood this correctly, the melting doors option may be in game, but it isn´t certain? If it´s not in the version released first, could this melting thing be added with a later patch?

It costs more than being a baby. Also, they take pictures of you naked.

hey, just watch the UK trailer, and notice aroun 1:38 kyle uses his saber and blows up a wall....i think

Darth Ergotht · 03-19-2002, 02:18 PM

Yeah he do blow up a wall. That blows up, Kyle doesn't cut throught. What I mean is that you seem explosion. That's not the same thing that Qui Gon was doing

Too bad this game doesn't use the Red Faction engine.... If you can't get through a door, you can blow a hole in the wall and go between the door. (On that game you can cut through any wall with bombs)

That would work great if you were back on Sulon or something where there isn't a ton of durasteel and duracrete and other impenetrable stuff like that. Granted, you could probably dent the duracrete and bend the durasteel, but don't you think that would be a waste of ammo?

The red faction engine(Geo-Mod) is hard to edit and stuff but the Q3 is easy and is much higher in standards (except cutting everything apart)

Darth Yittreas · 03-19-2002, 04:45 PM

I think that in the UK trailer he doesn't blow up a wall. He uses the saber-throw to blow some kinda tube. And remember that the trailer is from an older version (it had the batsaber in it).
