OMG new link

Yay!

hahahahaha..... that looks so stupid. if that game actually sees the light of day, it looks to be a bundle of gimmicks and glitter with zero substance... oh wait, we've seen that before with many LEC games..

That was my first thought.

hahahahaha, it was a tech demo smart guy.

Dot.

Whatever. It's s demo of what a potential game can do. It isn't trying to show story or plot of anykind.

yes and what is being highlighted is glitter and glam. i think it's a safe bet that those force powers showcased will be the main focus of the game. it's not that much different from ja's "OMG YOU CAN USE NEW FORCE POWERS AND CUSTOMIZE YOUR CHARACTERS AS NEVER BEFORE!"

when was the last time there was a real plot in any LEC game?

DF:2

Yes, sadly true that things have degraded in the series.

KotOR

Also, keep on making baseless judgments of you want, based on on one minute clip and no other information if you want.

oooo This link has more images

I forgot about KOTOR...yes. KOTOR had a great one.

Republic Commando was pretty sweet.

but really short with little plot.

:/

I thought KOTOR was made by Bioware?

LEC hasn't made a SW game in a long time. LEC serves as the developer now.

TIE Fighter had a plot; Kill rebels, kill pirate, kills traitors, repeat as necessary. None of this sappy "OMG my family's pwnd" crap from XWA

I enjoyed XWA, and still do.. unfortunately my joystick broke.

XWA had a not-half-bad plot (I wish they hadn't just abandoned it at the end, though) and allowed you to pretty much do everything they do in the movies. That was fun. Shields double-front, hop to the turret, throw the auto-pilot on, go zoom-zoom-zoom bang-bang-bang die-die-die, fly just about anything... it was awesome.
I figured that the only way the last mission of XWA makes any sense is that Ace must be one of the technicians on the Falcon during the Battle of Endor, in which case he still isn't actually piloting it, but he could be a gunner or whatever. After all, we really don't know who any of the people on the Falcon besides Lando and Nien were, a situation you don't really find in any other scene from any of the movies.
And in that video, I think I saw... like, Naboo... Ord Mantell... and... Dathomir?

-Cool.

Here is something that I think all of you guys will be interested in seeing. I guess after they saw that the video got leaked onto the internet (which was only a matter of time), they decided to finally give out some more info about it.

Why is there no smiley for exploding with anticipation?

I dunno, call it lack-of-posting-syndrome or somthing. I guess I'm just so hyped up about this game but afraid of which console it might come out for that I'm in a rut about it. I'd like to see it come out for the wii as well as the pc. Can you imagine the possibilites for the lightsaber combat with that controller on that system. Guess I'll wait for my hypeness to really show farther on down the line.

I was talking with Emon a little about using the Wiimote for something like this, but can you imagine the possiblities of dual-wielding with two Wiimotes? One for a saber, another for a blaster, if implemented this could be really, really cool.

Red Steel is set to do the dual-wielding thing. Katana in the right hand with the wiimote, tanto in the left with the nunchaku controller. Potentially very, very fun.

And very, very silly looking. Who would want to prance around thier living room like the star wars kid with two remotes, and realizing they suck when thier 'skill' with the wiimotes gets them killed? Not I.

So they're building an engine from scratch. I hope it doesn't suck. And I hope it's not some closed source POS either.

You know the games aren't designed for you to do all the spins and lunges, right? You just...move the controller. Would you look less silly with a huge pair of goggles over your eyes and nodes hooked up to your body?

Yes, gawd. Then you look like you're in the matrix or something, which is so much cooler. <.<

Ha! Good luck with that!

Well I just read the article. Everything he says sounds very very promising and interesting albeit I feel its pretty far fetched to expect some of the stuff he mentions to actually make it to the game.

"Games drive technology"

Sure I say, but the computer must still be able to handle it.

Still, I sure can't wait to see what they come up with.

I still like what they are doing with both the DMM and the Euphoria (sp) Engines in this game. The fact that you can destroy a wall if you hit it hard enough with an object with enough mass (i'm sure slamming a stormie into it enough times will get the job done as well ) and that each time you do it, it will always look different just adds more to the darksidedness of the game (at least for me anyways). I know I'm going to see how many walls I can put a stormie through when it comes out. Not only that but the Euphoria engine will have the AI use a certain logic. If the AI thinks that grabing onto a railing will help it get up faster then it'll do just that. If you push 2 stormies off a ledge then they will both claw at whatever they can just to keep from falling. If one of them happen to grab ahold of something then the second stormie will try to grab onto him. They will try to preseve their life no matter what it takes from what they make it out to seem. If you want to read up more about the two engines that are going to be a big part of this game then you should read up on the new Indiana Jones game that is coming out. One thing I did notice in the video (I know that they said it was prerendered but I'm wondering if they will put this in the final release), if you watch the second scene of force push, one of the stormtroopers actually gets his helmet blown off from the shockwave.

Not real time.

DF2's plot was stupid.


Oh. My dad dies. I want his magic disk.

Whats this in my garage? A Lightsaber? OH. I must be a Jedi, because I found this lightsaber.

Kickass. Now I'm going to go thwart evil or some ****.

Sounds like an awesome plot to me. :O

It's stupid, shallow, and not nearly as good as DF.

I wouldn't call it stupid, but it is rather shallow. The concept and main ideas are pretty solid, but it's limited by the fact that it's just a game. You can't have a time-sensical progression from nothing to Jedi in 30 hours of gameplay. Well, you can, but you need to have some sort of reference for how time moves. There's really no indication as to whether JK takes place over the course of several weeks, months or even a year. It can be inferred that it takes place within weeks or months, but there's nothing concrete to confirm that. Leaving you kind of in limbo as to how it should all make sense (garage -> lightsaber -> Jedi that is).

DF's was better though.

Doh, that's a given, it's not as good as DF. But he asked for the last best plot LEC came up with. DF:2 was the latest/last.

No.

It wasn't.


Because it didn't even have a good plot.

Your opinion is wrong.
