Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

We all love the clone wars cartoons but they represent a very, VERY inflated and over the top representation of Jedi abilities. It definitely does not show what I think we should work to recreate in our abilities balance and if we did then it'd require just as epic of moments to challenge Jedi chara...

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

There are a lot of things hilarious about this game, though.

Broadsword? The best. If this game had havok? Goodness, I doubt I could stop laughing. Physics systems in general are worth tons of laughs. And they'd make plenty of sense ICly.

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

I'm not saying it's a dealbreaker.

I'm saying it's hilarious.

Alas, I feel sometimes we do not get each other.

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

No doubt. In the way that some people can get along fine with just jump 2 (you can make basically any jump in basejka maps with just jump 2, for the record) and others like going all the way up to jump 5 (which is just about pointless in comparison to jump 4) you can stop speed wherever you think it...

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

I think them leaping over the railing to scramble for a dropped hilt would break their legs and then they'd have bigger things to worry about than lightsabers on the ground. Also! Picking up other hilts on the ground will mean that every time I use storm 4 I will suddenly come into the possession of...

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

I agree, but you'll get more out of 'long jumps' by strafe jumping than adding in that horrendous no-pivot animation from single player. I think 30/40/50/60/70% speed increase is relatively fair so that lower levels aren't 'worthless' and higher levels are a bit higher. Maybe 25/40/55/70/85 tops. As...

Now this I agree with.

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

I still think that, if you disarmed me I should be able to throw out a kick at you though to buy me time to get away or whatever. You can still 'kick' people in this time, unless you're referring to the melee attack 'alt attack' kick, which people will just duck and kill you instantly for attemptin...

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

And we know the suggestion is for you. Of course it is. The same way Heal Other and Class system changes are for you. Or Lightsaber Offense changes might be for Rash. Or Telekinesis changes might be for Aslyn. We make these suggestions because they come to mind as we experience them first hand. I s...

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

I can see the benefit of this suggestion. Sure, if you're in a saber spar, jumping in fist first against a saber would be ill-advised and, well, stupid - but RPMod extends beyond Jedi Vs Jedi. I can think of a fair few instances where this could be utilised. Freeing up your hands when disarmed woul...

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

I think it's really just that the game engine originally did not even have 'melee' programmed in so it never had to account for this thing. As for things being "Pro-FFA" I think that's a rather ridiculous buzzword that doesn't inspire much faith in the velocity of a viewpoint. We can estab...

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

They're also easier to hit, harder to use lightsabers with

Don't think that's really a good avenue to complain about.

Being short is OP.

EDIT: Some don't want to change the speed, some don't want to change the duration.

Looks like speed'll stay the way it is for a long time.

Re: Drop Lightsaber - Switch Weapon

I believe the game handles 'disarm' as essentially being 'disabled' where if you lose the lightsaber weapon you're still currently USING the weapon lightsaber but it has no functions. For this reason, I am entirely clueless as to whether or not this is possible but I think it's a good idea. Especial...

Re: Level 4/5 Speed Update

For the record, 75% faster for 20 seconds is WAY too much. WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much. Base speed in g_speed is 250. Speed increases speed by 50% right now, I think. That's 375. Increasing the speed to 75% will up 250 to 437. That's a 62 point boost. Consider this: 437 for 20 seconds is 8740 units. 375 ...
