Star Wars FPS Wish List
2008-12-24, 2:08 AM #41
Nar Shadaa in JK2 was one of the worst game design decisions of all time.

Oh Look heres your lightsaber and this is the first level in which you can use it.

Oh and its full of snipers, grenade spammers and bowcasters...

Would like to see a Stormtrooper FPS, maybe done the same way as the buggy but underrated Force Commander with you playing a Stormtrooper for most of the game but then switching to the Rebellion.

Also Force Commander has the best SW Text crawl I've ever seen.

I want a game all about Boba Fett.
There...are...FOUR...lights!
2008-12-24, 2:23 AM #43
Am I the only one who found the weapons useful even after I got the sabre?
Nothing to see here, move along.

Gah they tried a game on Jango Fett game and bar the story (and maybe some of the locations) it was really bad...

I agree that a stormtrooper game would be fun. With some good AI, it would make a good squad game. Maybe something like CoD, where there's multiple campaigns? One as a rebel soldier, one as a stormtrooper?
2008-12-24, 10:02 AM #46
Yeah that would be good, but not too realistic. Something that gives stormtroopers the respect they deserve.

Screw that, a game on Ig-88's story would be much more entertaining.



OR they could just make a game out of all the stories from Tales of a Bounty Hunter, make the different characters selectable, and have at it.

Right, and you would end the game as IG-88 with the second Death Star completely under your control.

While I agree that the idea of a bounty hunter game would be cool, I shudder to think of it being based off of anything that came from Kevin J. Anderson's mind.

If a game was made where we could be stormtroopers that didn't defect, it'd just be simply awesome, it would be like Opposing Force was to Half-Life. I'm sure if you told any hardcore Half-Life fan that the first sequel was from the soldier's POV they wouldve said it was going to fail and would never work - wrong

Stormtrooper = revival
2008-12-24, 8:19 PM #50
I didnt mean having two campaigns where one is as a stormtrooper, the other is the same person after they deffected- I meant two completely different campaigns focusing on different characters. Although character development would probably suffer with two main characters.

What about a Han Solo game? Or a Luke Skywalker one?

Or a series of games based on the Timothy Zahn trilogy.

Why not have an old republic FPS instead of RPG or MMO
2008-12-25, 8:08 AM #54
Because Old Republic = Jedi

And as a long time SWG Player I'm sick of jedi.

There already was one- Republic Commando. It was good, but not good enough to cancel out the rest of the suck that we've been seeing in Star Wars games as of late.

Yeah, that would be cool, but I'm afraid that it would be too much of a temptation include jedi and aspects of the force for the game devs to resist.

Everyone knows Zuckuss was the best..
Also, I can kill you with my brain.
2008-12-26, 2:09 PM #59
I still say that the next games should be the timothy zahn trilogy... we should advance the story from episode 6 from the main characters we all know and love...

Hell, an I Jedi rpg/fps would be cool.

No mang, see, I, Jedi and Timothy Zahn books are cool, but a new star wars vid game should have new characters... ones developed like those in the better star wars books, but not drawn right from them.
2008-12-26, 8:22 PM #61
Playing the guy who isn't force-sensitive would be a great departure. I think the appeal of Solo and Fett was their getting by in a Jedi's game with luck and skill.

Ultimately you'd have to fight someone who is and find a way to compensate.

Which is why we want another Kyle Katarn game correct?

If my memory serves me right, other than the nes and snes games, there are no games where you play as luke.

We cant really get another Katarn game (Unless he was ever a Stormtrooper which could be kinda cool)

Why? Because he's a jedi and they already did the lost powers plot device once and cant really do it again.

Luke game doesnt work as well as they cant do whatever they want with the character.

whatever happened to Mara Jade? They could also take that imperial POV idea and make a Katarn game where he was an Imperial, but then again, force powers, i would play it, you would all play it, nobody else would.

- Guns
- No lightsabers
- No force powers
- No third person camera
- Starring Kyle Katarn
- Set between Dark Forces and Jedi Knight
- Absolutely zero creative control given to George Lucas
- Not developed by Raven
- because Raven only knows how to make grate puzzles
- seriously JO sucked
- the gun parts were the most fun even though the gameplay got so much better after you got the saber, how can a game designer be so bad at everything and the level design is really really bad

I always thought it was rather weird how Ravensoft is given these big title games one after another.

I agree that the levels weren't very special and the force powers were somewhat weird at times, but the fun I had in multiplayer with the lightsaber is without compare.

I want a remake of the original Jedi Knight.

to be honest i wouldnt mind Jedi Knight and MoTS remade on a next-gen engine
2008-12-28, 7:39 PM #69
An official remake of JK from LucasArts? Seriously, people? A mod would be different, but LA developers remaking a previous title from 10 years ago would be just sad. I know they seem to hit the bottom of their shallow creativity well but actually encouraging LucasArts to go out and rehash old material is fairly disheartening.

Done.

It doesn't COMPLETELY suck, either.

[Edit: Oh wait, it's about Jango Fett. Whatever, close enough.]

2008-12-28, 10:25 PM #74
I like the idea of a game with a light saber, but maybe if the saber didn't so utterly dominate. It probably shouldn't block everything, but still work a tad better than JK. I also think the weapons themselves should pack a bit more punch. I mean, the light saber should still be powerful, and deflect a lot of things, but you should still have to be careful, and the penalty for not being careful should be higher. Perhaps if it blocked all but the most withering barrages to the front, and was less useful to the side and back, and if effectiveness changed based on the direction you are running and weather you are jumping or not.

I also think that with a physics engine, the force could be a bit more free from and allow the user to put things together him/her self. Lightning and stuff would probably still have to be special, but most forms of telekinesis could be dealt with in a manor closer to the gravity gun.

So, like, The Force Unleashed?
DO NOT WANT.

Mara Jade was force trained as an Imperial assasin...

Hmm Hitman type game please? that could be cool.

But a nice dark stormtrooper game would be best (Maybe the tutorial would be you killing beru and lars and burnating the homestead and moving on to the jawas)

what is this JK:Source...google tells me nothing

You need the secret code to obtain JK:Source alpha build.

I think you're on to something.

A more tactical shooter star wars themed, no jedi powers or sabers.
