Here is what ChangKhan had to say about Batsaber:
Quote:

In single-player, the lightsaber used to kind of erratically do an inconsistent amount of knockback several builds ago, but that was removed because it didn't seem right. However, I cannot be certain about whether or not the saber does knockback in multiplayer. This is the primary reason I haven't posted a "no, there's no knockback" or "yes, there is" because I'm not certain if there (technically) is or isn't any in multiplayer...

What would be really funny is if someone took out their magnetic field thingo so they could shoot someone with a saber from across the room.

My saber:
A really really really really really really hot light thing and its surrounded by metal. then the metal hits and its so hot it burns through. They can collide etc.
You think its not possible to be a Jedi Sith? Play me and I'll show you the best of each side of the force.

Can you do this in Jedi Knight 2?

Ok, here is a little more.
For a lightsaber to cut through matter, the light energy of the blade would have to react with the matter it cuts through. Therefore the blade is, as said, a high amount of energy. To cut through matter, the particles of the blade and the particles of the matter must be given enough energy to reach the activated complex. (The point where they begin to react and teh saber cuts through.) The high amounts of energy would allow this to happen. The transfer of energy into the matter the blade cuts, would mean an exothermic reaction. (Heat is being given out by the saber.) This could be a theory for the blast doors in Episode 1 melting when Qui Gonn inserts his saber into it.

Lets find out *shoots him* *Stabs him* did it feel the same?
Vader's wife was very pregnant when she died 19 years ago. All of a sudden a 19 year old who is very strong in the force and has a distinct resembalance to him in his younger days rolls in from Vader's home planet with his old Master Obi-Wan (Who was the ONLY other person preset at the time his wife died. And to boot, the kid's last name is Skywalker.
So in answer to your question, he knew Luke was his son because his name is Darth Vader, and not Darth Retard.

Bliv, all well and good, but surely you must agree that conventional scientific knowledge cannot explain the workings of a device that can do the things a lightsabre can do. I mean the thing blocks other energy beams, cuts through blast doors and its beam stops dead a certain distance from the hilt... And yet it doesn't remotely scorch the hand that wields it nor does it burn the face off the person who is extremely close to it. Conventional science balks at such fables.
Truly, trying to impose contemporary physical rules onto a completely imaginary McGuffin like a lightsabre is a futile effort.

Eh.. maybe.. but we're getting very close to fable like scientific descoveries..
A few months ago, some scientists shot a beam of light through a chamber, and the light actually EXITED the chamber before it ever entered the chamber...
Explain that with your scientic laws
Just the other week, scientists created the largest amount of anithydrogen they've ever created, which is the closest thing we have to the theorized anti-matter.
They've been working on anti gravity.. it's a reality, Boeing has projects and research on it going right now...
The world is slowly becoming one big fairy tale
Oh, and also, this guy in Australian invented this gun that shoots something like a million rounds a minute (This isn't an exageration) They called it like a "laser beam of lead"

Quantum physics, no doubt.
As for your assertion that we may soon discover how to make an object that can do the things lightsabres can do, no-one can say yea or nay. We may do, we may not...
The fact remains however that trying to use CURRENT scientific thinking to theorise about such an object, is pointlessly pre-emptive. One must possess the chicken of knowledge, before one can obtain the egg of a working lightsabre.

jokemaster, please don't go digging for old posts and bringing them back up, especially for just the purpose of spam.
PM'ed and reported.

... especially for the sake of nostalgia ... I remember these threads from before the game came out, all the gnashing of teeth over the batsaber ...

Perhaps, I do to miss all the discussions about the bat saber and such, however to SPAM on top of it is just inexcusable.
