Trailer II Discussion

OnlyOneCanoli · 03-13-2002, 08:40 PM

It's out! Right here!

March 29th is the official release date as well. I'm still downloading, but I figured it would be good to establish a thread early on so we don't get redundant.

wow this has got to be the best fps game ever as far as special dodging moves are concerned (even much better than UT)

Indy4 · 03-13-2002, 08:43 PM

ps2maddenman · 03-13-2002, 08:49 PM

Nice trailer March 29th w00t!!!, I love the way he used mind trick on the 3 officers then placed remote mines behind em and blasted em!!!

Wacky_Baccy · 03-13-2002, 08:49 PM

Good idea, Canoli

But what's there to discuss?

The game will rock, and that's all that needs to be said!

SaberPro · 03-13-2002, 08:50 PM

Download the movie!!

Cool Multiplayer mode

How did Kyle do the lightsaver-backstab thing?? He can feel the Dark Jedi?

The last Jedi you see in Cloud City sounds like Jerec's voice....

and the most important: MARCH 29TH!! MARCH 29TH!!@$#!$! Ok i'll go now

Squalliss · 03-13-2002, 08:50 PM

Confirmed Saber Colors for MP:

Blue
Green
Red
Purple
Yellow

Whooohooo!

Did you see the last map? Isn't that the scene in Empire Strikes Back when Han gets forzen? That will be an awesome map.

As well, that cool back saber strike just half way into the trailer is great!

This game is gonna rock.

Squalliss · 03-13-2002, 08:52 PM

Obviously LEC and Raven were getting pissed about how the different release dates were going around and the confusion, so they added that Official "In-Store" Date. Hehe.

Eternity · 03-13-2002, 08:53 PM

Does anyone else think they did the 'slow mo' when he strikes down the reborn to show us it isn't a bat?

Reptar · 03-13-2002, 08:53 PM

only one thing...looks like PURPLE SABERS IN MP!

Qel · 03-13-2002, 08:55 PM

OMG....the FORCE RAGE....its...its.....its....unstopable!!!!

The JEDI MIND TRICK SEQUENCE looked awesome the way kyle planted the explosives.....and the officers blew up..lol

The acrobatics are something else.......very good stuff!!!!

March 29th

.....WOHOOOOO

OnlyOneCanoli · 03-13-2002, 08:55 PM

Here is a summary/my impressions of the trailer.

First of all, I have to say that I'm amazed. It really looks like this game is going to be a lot better than I had expected it to be. First, we see a sentry gun on top of a few crates. Nothing too much, other than Kyle actually destroying it. We also learned that once you force push someone, you can kill them while they're laying on the ground. Additionally, the lightbat is not only limited to swinging... we were introduced to the Lightbat Throw of Doom (tm).

We also see a backstab with Kyle's saber, which was simply amazing to look at. Apparently, when a reborn dies, they drop their saber and it stays on, too.

Another thing to point out is that they did indeed change the noise the bowcaster makes. I like it a bit more. Force jump has the same old sound effect, though.

We also get a glimpse of the flag from CTF mode. I can't complain, I like it. Additionally, a woman will be voicing the status updates. Sounds kind of like the woman in ESB who controls the ion gun. Nice touch.

Then we're treated with a few scenes with mines. The tripmine doesn't show too much detail, but it seems to work well. I have no idea what that homing projectile was that was fallowing the guy. And then in arguably the best part of the trailer, Kyle force persuades three officers, plants mines behind them, and detonates them, sending the imps flying. Amazing!

Additionally, we see what looks like a map based on a Star Destroyer. It looks absolutely wonderful. We also see the three-star force choke as well--kickass. Then a cool wallrun, followed by pulling a trooper and cutting him down. Very cool stuff. Then, I believe we see a glimpse of Force Rage (?). Well, whatever it was, it kicked ass.

And then at the finale, we see a Dark Jedi (with a voice erily similar to Vader's) in the carbon-freezing chamber, "sensing" you. I have no idea who it is, but I can't wait to face him.

And of course, March 29th is our official release date, folks!

All in all, a wonderful trailer. I really can't complain about anything (other than theLightbat Throw of Doom (tm)). To summarize my feelings, I must say that I haven't been this excited for a game in a very, very long time.

*TheJackal* · 03-13-2002, 08:56 PM

I really like the backwards stab Kyle used to kill a reborn jedi.

I liked that level 3 force grip. bash him around

and I also like the part where Kyle pushes the rodian off a cliffe.

I also liked it when they purpusly influence the soldiers to make them think Kyle wasn't there and planted bombs.

LucasArts and Raven seems to be fond of the dark side.

But don't worry. So am I.

Rat Boy · 03-13-2002, 08:56 PM

For all you people asking:

There is "back-stabbing" with the lightsaber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pipe Smoke · 03-13-2002, 08:57 PM

Yea all the important colors are there but they'd best have orange available too. That's all that's missing.

My greatest concern, I fear was a bit more reinforced here... the MP level design does not remind me of JK's, but rather of Q3A... and others like that. I will have to actually get my hands on it to really say for sure though.

I really hope you can turn off the crosshair while in 3rd person, i'm sure you can.

That last level where the dark jedi is, we've seen like a billion shots of... no i don't think it's that carbon chamber (which was in mots anyway...) i think it's a similar sort of thing but not that exactly. Maybe though.

Anyway, over all... quite dope. A lot of good stuff!

MadScientist · 03-13-2002, 09:00 PM

The thing I noticed most was how fast everything happened. Actually, I think we may have seen JK in fast forward. The first trailer (and the PC gamer one for that matter) went much slower so I think this one may have had it's speed increased somehow... perhaps this is an in-game option? What do you all think?

Indy4 · 03-13-2002, 09:01 PM

this is assome
you got your wish for not having the junk at the beggining
i dont expect a demo after this
if they have a demo its without the lightsaber to not spoil the fun of it

SEYA

Pipe Smoke · 03-13-2002, 09:01 PM

No madscientist, i'm sure you're quite incorrect.

jedialphaknight · 03-13-2002, 09:01 PM

.............two weeks from friday all i gotta say

SilentDark · 03-13-2002, 09:02 PM

I luv raven

HBK · 03-13-2002, 09:04 PM

First off, I din't care for the homing weapon, I think they are cheap.

I LOVE the 'acrobatics'. To quote a song that I can't remember the title, "I'll rip $h1t and backflip like a jedi."

Backwards stab was cool. Wonder how they will work that so you know when to do it.

And if I am not mistaken, after he wall walks (toward the end) and swings his sabre, he leaves a mark on the wall, like he sliced through it. Nice touch.

It did seem fast(bad). Some of the MP maps looked large(good).
hehe, stormtroopers and Tie pilots w/ sabres. The GRIP owned.

Indy4 · 03-13-2002, 09:04 PM

i think its just the trailer they want to put alot of footage into a limited amount of time
how do you do that thing that he stabs the guy without nowing hes there?

SEYA

Eternity · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

No, it only seemed that way because you were in third person..it was just that fast in the other trailer when you were in third person, it makes it seem 'faster.'

That was simply AMAZING. My hype was low, and as a result, I was BLOWN AWAY.

Demijedi · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

I have just one word to say....

OOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RiseForth · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

I noticed that Luke was one of the MP characters.... it's when we are carrying around the bowcaster (close to the halfway point of the trailer).

-RiseForth

Locke101 · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

yes i like the color orange too for my saber. But the best part of the trailer IMO is when kyle mind tricks the officers and then plants mines. Like was said before, LEC and RAVEN are fond of the darkside.......i second that motion!

Necro · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

i loved it!

very interesting how the more you kill the more force you get -- i got that from when he killed the one guy with the thermal dets and got force pull. i loved the moves, especially when he walked on the wall, did a back flip from the wall, the backwards stab and of course the slow down when he killed that jedi!!!

can't forget the level 3 (i think) force grip!

Pipe Smoke · 03-13-2002, 09:05 PM

Yea HBK, the return of the homing rail from MOTS disturbs me somewhat... but I would only be pissed if they hadn't included the option to push them away. Seeing as how they DID, it's all good.

Necro · 03-13-2002, 09:07 PM

saber colors: blue, red, orange, yellow, purple, green

Indy4 · 03-13-2002, 09:10 PM

thank you so muchhhhhh for canceling obi-wan for pc

i want this game sooo much!!!!

SEYA

Reptar · 03-13-2002, 09:12 PM

yes thank you for giving us this.....i am much happier with a wait of this long to get (what looks like so far) a quality game

digl · 03-13-2002, 09:12 PM

great trailer

at the beginning the push against the ground
then the backstab
the guy pushed into a cliff

force rage!
we know hot the flags look like

no quake font
some force powers icon (top left in holocron mode)
look at 0:47-0:50 huge MP level
level 3 grip
use of wall ride
railruptor kill at 0:33 (cannon fodder was sniped by colonel sanders)
loom at 0:41 DOC was "smashed" was that a fore throw kill done with push or pull?
...

JediArs · 03-13-2002, 09:12 PM

The tailer was one word: AWESOME

THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST GAME EVER! I am 101% sure that I will not be dissappointed. I kept watching it again.......and again.......and again.

Oh.....the hours of fun it will provide......

Yodimus Prime · 03-13-2002, 09:12 PM

I think i saw a light blue saber as well.

In all, That was nifty! um...nope, that's all i can really say about it.
