What is your favorite Star Wars game?
TIE Fighter
Jedi Outcast, easy.
I like Jedi Academy too, but only for the multiplayer.
>>320406864
/thread
Soul Calibur IV
>>320406864
Interested in the series. Where do I start?
>>320406981
Were not ending the thread on account of your shit taste, anon.
Dorid Works
>>320406709
Star Wars SAGA edition, but I can never find anyone willing to play or run it. Jedi are OP though since the Use the Force skill can be used in place of a bunch of other skills.
>>320406709
Rogue Squadron series.
Kotor 2
>>320407929
Good taste
>>320407929
Will we ever get another Star Wars game with fun lightsaber combat?
>>320407929
Why does he swing so slowly? It's not like the blade has noticeable mass. It's just a hilt.
kotor 2. Or Republic Commando. I'm an indecisive faggot
>>320406709
looked like a crotch gun in the thumbnail
Was there ever a bad Star Wars game?the kinect piece of shit doesn't count
>>320408117
Nope.
>>320408204
there was multiple fighting styles you could switch between. he was using the slow style.
>>320408204
Slow and heavy style of fighting. Meant to bash through defenses of the regular or fast style.
>>320408326
Galactic Battlegrounds was pretty bad and Battlefrofield.
>>320408326
>Was there ever a bad Star Wars game?
Yeah, there was quite a few.
>>320408640
>Galactic Battlegrounds
>bad
Fight me you faggot
>>320408326
That was decent at best
>>320408442
Was there ever a point in using other styles tho? Strong style or dual sabers were the shit.I liked recreating Duel of the Fates with my mates in JAAll those moments will be lost in time.
>>320407104
>Dat trench run
Does this emulate well yet?
I liked Republic Commando a lot.
>>320408768
In Jedi Outcast the styles were significantly more useful than they were in Jedi Academy. Once they introduced Dual Sabers and Saberstaves, they were much better than being able to switch between the styles.
>>320408442
Hm
>>320408593
Bash through defenses? How? The lightsaber blades don't have mass so there's not really an advantage to a big windup.

>>320406709
>>320408926
That was just the game logic bit of it, I'm not gonna pretend that I know the physics behind how useful it would be in a "real" lightsaber battle.
>>320408326
Star Wars NES, pretty much every 5th-gen game that wasn't a racing game, probably at least a hundred shitty mobile games/bargain-bin plug-and-play console toys/cd-roms found in cereal boxes. Star Wars is fucking collosal, you massively underestimate just how much shovelware it's collected by gravitational pull alone.
>>320408723
I'm with this anon
>>320408268
Yeah, the thumbnail made the robot look vastly more interesting.
>>320409063
I gotcha. From my limited knowledge of physics and mass, I would assume that swinging faster is better because only the hilt has noticeable mass. In contact between two blades there really isn't any force besides electrons making them not slide through each other.
Which is actually a great advantage of a lightsaber. Nothing material can block it.
>>320408690
Oh fuck I had that game. I don't remember being bad just hella hard.
>>320406709
>dickgun
Definitely KOTOR1 and 2, but I feel like they tie with the Jedi Knight games all the time.
>>320409658
Go to bed, Finland
>>320409667
WHAT IF
A KOTOR REMAKE
WITH JEDI OUTCAST COMBAT

In the OT the blades were "heavy" they basically acted like large swords and the actors were instructed to treat them as if they had mass.
Prequels fucked this all up of course.

>>320410994
Yeah, there's no noticable mass, but when you swing a lightsaber and it hits another lightsaber, you're still pushing against the other person holding said lightsaber. You're not putting momentum in the blade so much as you're directly transferring your own momentum into the other person. "Battering through their defenses" doesn't mean breaking their blade, it just means forcing them to move it out of the way so you cut them.
>tfw no more flight sims
>>320410453
What about Kotor from an angle that doesn't make me feel so fucking uncomfortable.
>>320411730
You fucking retard, they're talking about an in-game mechanic where you hit quicker or slower.
Hard to say, Kotor 2, Battlefront 2 or Dark Forces 2why is the first sequel always the best in all Star Wars series?
>>320406709
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tc-dbyUjjc
I certainly was young enough to like Star Wars.
>>320412457
You want isometric view?
Me too
>>320410471
so fucking cool, playing it all the time
>>320412508
Yeah, and that's the fucking explanation for it IN THE GAME. THEY'RE the ones that started talking about the movies and the prequels and the "actual physics" and shit. I'm just saying that there's no fucking difference between the principals of lightsaber duels vs real sword duels; just because the blade itself has no mass doesn't mean that the person using it doesn't as well
>>320412819
Top down, isometric, 2 fucking feet up, I dont care.
KOTOR is a great game but I feel so weird playing it.
Not my favorite, but it deserves to be in the thread. Those space battles.
>>320412970
To be honest the wierd part for me was stealth. Can't utilise it efficiently with such shifty camera. Not that stealth was ever needed in Kotor games anyway but muh roleplay.
>>320406709
Hard to decide between the first Battlefront, Galactic Battlegrounds, and Rogue Leader. I'd probably go with GB, I guess.
X-Wing: Alliance
>>320409264
>>320410994
>>320409063
>>320411730
Just for shits and giggles, lets apply some actual real world physics to light sabers.
First
Dueling with light sabers would not be possible, since "light" is photons, which has no mass.
Thus in a light saber duel, you wouldn't be able to block or parry with another light saber, they would just go straight through each other.
Second.
Since we can see the projected light we know that it's not at all harmful, unless they simultaneously project high frequency, low wavelength photons which is basically gamma radiation.
Even if this is the case, you wouldn't be able to cut people with a light saber, just irradiate them to death.
Third.
Q: How is the length of the saber controlled?
A:Magic
Fourth.
A light saber would probably handle like a flashlight, and if the "blades" were able to connect, they would act like really unbalanced swords.
Which would be bad, since you want the pointy part of your sword to be somewhat heavy to help with momentum and impact when swinging it.
Man, so many things in movies and vidya are ruined if you study physics.I just think of light sabers as actual swords made of some alien material which is manipulated by energy.
>>320413183
pretty much the only good part of the game desu, that and the mods
>>320413636
Lightsabers are also meant to have some mystical bullshit force connection so if you don't know how it works then "force did it."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVgVB3qsySQ
What does /v/ think about this game ?
>>320408914
Everyone did, and a sequel was planned
>>320413636
What if the blade is made of plasma contained by a rightly shaped magnetic field?
I guess it might be too hot to hold on to the hilt in that case though.
>>320407929
How did you get the dismemberment to be so fluid? on my game it's quite rare, though it does happen
>>320406709
Should I feel bad for liking this design?
>>320413636
It's literally a piece of crystal inside a handle with an on/off switch, but actually assembling it takes great effort
Fact: beating this game makes your dick bigger
>>320413636
Nigger you're an idiot. Worse than the people that say blasters are lasers. The whole point of science is to observe shit and make conclusions based off our observations. If we observe particular properties but it's name implies properties we cannot observe, we simply observe that whatever they thought it was was wrong.
Light sabers are not literally light you retard, just like turbo lasers are not literally lasers. Fucking goggle this shit, it takes 5 seconds.
I believe the most plausible lights aber explanation was something along the lines of arc-waves

>>320407002
I think I'm the only one who liked the first one better. I dont care much about playing as a jedi and battlefront 2 took out all of my favorite maps from battlefront 1. game. The space battles in 2 are cool though.
>>320414915
Is the DS version also hard as tits? If so then I'll probably play that version instead if I ever decide to replay it
>>320414289
In jko if you open up the console, input helpusobi 1, then input g_SaberRealisticCombat 1. You can also input 2 or 3. Doing this will make the lights aber constantly deal damage (to varying degrees depending on the input value). It also means you can dismember corpses after death and cut enemies into many, many pieces.
>>320414452
Well no, it's a battery (diatium power cell), amplifier, crystal focus, and lens focus according to the technical manuals, give or take a few other things, but close enough.
>>320407358
Bao-Dur sounded pretty gay but kinda grown on me.
>>320415550
Literally a flashlight
>>320415075
The Ds version is much better and it includes 3d space battles.
>>320406709
Is it OK if I like this more than Jedi Outcast?
It is WAY fucking faster paced
>>320414979
yee
>>320406709
Why does his dick have arms? Why does his dick carry a gun?
>>320414121
Dueling would still not be possible since the particles and magnetic fields would interfere with each other and fuck everything up. Making it an extremely impractical weapon.
>>320414741
You're the one who is the idiot and a retard, and it's painfully obvious you have no idea what you're talking about, the canon is that it is LITERALLY light, just google that shit, bitch.
>Arc-waves
Even IF that shit was electrons/positrons, that just makes light sabers LESS plausible, just ask someone at CERN, light would be easier to manipulate in the way we see in the movies than free electrons, since they interact with fucking EVERYTHING.
>>320414452But that's retarded anon, lalala, I can't hear you, lalala.
>>320414741
What this guy said
>>320408204
I'm pretty sure lore wise lightsaber hilts are actually quite heavy.
At least that's the impression they give in the original triology.
>>320406709
I'm only posting to say that seeing the thumbnail from the catalog it looked like it had a giant robo-dick.
>>320406709
the one where han solo is killed by kylo ren his son
>>320416906
It's not a good sign when you see dicks
>>320407054
Just play TIE Fighter. X-Wing is alright, but TIE Fighter is just better in every regard.
>>320408758
had that on PC, great game
>>320416583
If it was LITERALLY light then it would have certain properties. Unless energy focused through the crystals, or the properties of diatium somehow fundamentally changes the properties of light there is no way with our current understanding that lightsabers are literally light.
Yes we can and yes we will challenge the Canon explanation if it does not hold up scientifically. That is what it means to be an actual goddamn scientist and is the difference between using the scientific method and knowing physics. It is also very much in the tradition of science fiction.
Now do you actually want to study how lightsabers work or do you want to keep masturbating to how much textbook physics you've memorized?
>>320417046
b-b-b-but it's non canon shit
>>320417437
You realise Star Wars is science fantasy, right?
>>320417668
What is some good actual science fiction with technology that could be physically possible?
>>320418246
W40K :^)
>>320418389
Also science fantasy, with heavier emphazis on fantasy
I just downloaded the old republic last week and it's pretty fun. Of course, they have a lot of items and content still locked behind expansions or subscription, but it's still very worth playing I think.
>>320408723
Knowing that Boss Gallo lived 2000 years before Nass and united the Gungan tribes to defeat Boss Rogoe has really helped me through life. Through everything that knowledge has stayed with me.
>>320418246
I liked how Battlestar Galactica did space fighter combat, they drift around in all directions and shit instead of flying like WW2 planes
>>320418670
But I actually liked the Gungan campaign...
>>320415917
not as good on a story level, but mara jade, purple lightsabres and a passionate hype for The Phantom Menace made this a real gem.
>>320418842
same, it was my favourite campaign by far!
>>320417437
Oh man, you are a total moron.
You want me to make assumptions and predictions on fictional things which don't exist and is in no way able to be scientifically studied?
All i was doing what pointing out that this fictional thing is implausible with the understanding of physics.
>fundamentally changes the properties of light
If a "real" light saber was actually able to be observed in nature, as they are in the movies.
A scientist would NOT assume what you're claiming. You're a retard and like i said before, you don't know what you're talking about.
Without being able to further study it, the conclusion would be that it's an unknown element, not "light".
Of which there are far more of, which could potentially have such properties.
Do you want to debate HOW people conjure fireballs in fantasy vidya now?
Or do you just want me to assume that magic exists and go from there? In that case you win.
>>320418246
Plasma guns, Gauss guns
Power armor or Exo-suits.
>>320418246
There's a whole genre for that: hard sci-fi
the one where Han Solo dies :^)
>>320415917
wasn't his lightsaber yellow in that game?
>>320420229
nope, that was mysteries of the sith.
>>320414027
My first video game, so im biased. But I remember it being pretty good. And the sequel being mind knowingly good as well.
>>320418974
Replayed the first level of jedi knight and found it still fun. Is there any noticeable upgrades from this sequel.
>>320420229
You get a green saber, but it gets smashed, so you take a yellow saber from a dead guy, it's the one he has in Mysteries of the Sith
>>320420408
mind knowingly
>>320420549
There's a lot more force powers for one. It's an expandalone, really, not much of a sequel. It's more or less the same game.
>>320420549
the AI is really improved. Also the opening level is a battle that puts the statement "relive the star wars battles for the first time" used to advertise battlefront to shame.
Seriously, you start out fighting off an assault on a base complete with chicken walkers, then you take a shuttle to a kind of second rate death star disguised as an asteroid (there really was no reason to celebrate galaxywide in ROTJ, the remnant are like the plague).
There's also a level on a sith temple plant that's like survival horror, beaten only by the final levels in Bunty Hounter as far as horror in SW games goes.
>>320420614
My minds eye could detect good vidya
Also was I the only one to play this? Shit was so cash, as a kid. This combined with Galactic battlegrounds made PC star-wars a golden age in games, or maybe its the nostalgia talking.
>>320414979
Probably one of the best Star Wars games out there
>>320421052
Tatooine Level was pretty fucken neat too, but yeah that opening battle level in MotS is fucking god tier.
>>320421052
>final levels in bounty hunter.
Those mooks were pretty scary, helped that it was hard as shit as well on normal. Actually most of the second half of the game was tough since those blasters sucked dick.
>>320414593
Apparently not.
Star Wars Galaxies
>>320419548
All I'm doing is pointing out that we know that already, and it's retarded. Of course lightsabers are impossible, or we'd have them already. It is much more interesting (and fun) to discuss how they -could- work, not why they wouldn't - that's just masturbatory "hurr durr I'm smarter than the writers" tier schlock.
>A scientist would not assume what you're claiming.
Yes, that's my point. It's dumb to say lightsabers are literally light because they don't behave like light at all, but for the surface appearance, and all explanations trying to push that would be massive unsupportable stretches.
I would be happy to discuss what kind of properties an element would need to behave similarly to lightsabers. I would be happy to reverse engineer a Saber depending on canon technical manuals and so on. That'd be fun. Just saying they can't work isn't.
If we want to have an actual discussion on magic or science in a fictional universe then yes, we need to suspend disbelief and approach the discussion in good faith, or there's no point.
>>320414979
I don't get the hype surrounding this game, it was terrible, with finicky controls, bullet sponge enemies, shitty lock on and strafe aiming.
I don't recall it being too open either but I may be wrong, been fucking years since I played it. I played it on PS2, is the GC version better? Is there a PC version?
>>320414979
I loved the shit out of this because Jango was my favorite character in the prequels, but after going back and playing it, >>320421728 is right.
>>320421292
what really gets me is Mara's line "asteroids don't normally do that" upon hearing that it took up Orbit and began bombarding the planet with lazers.
So much fun.
