Force push lock

Delmi N'jork · Post by **Delmi N'jork** » Sun Jul 12, 2009 10:09 pm

Remember in Revenge of the Sith when Obi Wan and Anakin fight over who will win in a contest of force push? I thought that this would be a interesting add on to have in RPMod. My thoughts would be people who have the same about of points in force push would lock occasionally and/or depending on the space between them or their positions with each other. Thoughts?

All well and good, but I have to ask: a) is it possible? and b) what's the point? The number of people firing off a Force Push at each other at exactly the same time is fairly small to begin with, and a lock is generally percentage chance that one might occur (as with a saber lock), so it'd be a lot of effort for something that wouldn't happen, well, ever. Moreover, how would you break this lock? With a saber lock, Push 3 does the job. You can't do that with a Push Lock, so...?

This suggestion was developed by rokran through a thread started by Nira some time ago, granted it was not the original intent of the thread.

You can find it here.

My thoughts are pretty much the same now as they were back then.

I like the idea a lot, and would love to see it implemented.

If it's possible, I think it would be neat to have.

Certainly a neat idea but wouldnt it also mean that something similar would be possible with Force Pull?

Hmm I don't know. Pull versus push doesn't seem as conflicting, to me, as two forces trying to being forced against one other like magnets.

I support this, so long as it is configured to be as picky about timing as saber locks are.

I don't support this. It's too much of a radical change in how push is currently used. Not too many people use push too often during duels as it is, and I don't want to see everyone spamming the ability just because of the 'chance' of some new thing. Honestly, I don't mind button-mashing a saber lock, but one button-mashing feature is enough thank you.

The only way I see this being practical without being silly is by turning it into its own mini-game of sorts. A level 1 push(er) is directed at someone with level 2+ and initiates some sort of timing game, not button mashing.

But seriously, why would you bother putting points into pull when you'll be wanting to 'push duel' with all the other cool kids?

I think this could be RP'ed pretty well though if you wanted to.

I'm with Sared on this one, i'm afraid.

I support this. I use push a lot and obviously it is possible because it was in episode III.

I support this Idea It can be cool but what if we can't push anymore ? I mean if we always block like in episode III that won't be a good thing. Plus SARED said it, seeing everyone spamming this ability to have a chance to block will be irritating.

That's right, I used a quote to note where I stand on this
