I was thinking of making a thread like this, but it looks like you beat me to it. Originally posted by joetheeskimo5 Do you have the steel nerves, the split second timing it takes to punch that Print Screen button as your enemy is flying through th...  [Read More]

I went years without ever noticing this, but a few years ago, some one told me about it. I can't believe how easy it is to miss! It is even so loud. Suffice it to say, I've noticed every time since. (and its very funny)...  [Read More]

I found that strange, too, and have no idea what causes it. I just tested the level by double clicking the file, and choosing to open with republic commando. The problem I had, was that I couldnt get it to load as a multiplayer map, even though I nam...  [Read More]

Not really. A shotgun is dependent on the element of surprise when fighting an AA, so it is at a disadvantage. The sniper rifle is difficult to use, especially with the size of the maps, and will not likely be chosen by most over the AA. The blaster...  [Read More]

And what would keep everyone from choosing AA. The whole point is that you have to earn weapons. They were placed where they are for a reason, they don't want everyone to have them....  [Read More]

Interesting. So the text when you get incapped is the same as what the sniper rifle displays? When you get incapped, does it give you all the text at once, or is it in small pieces? The sniper rifle gives text only a few lines at a time, and sometime...  [Read More]

I have found an overlap between the two parts. Assuming the second half is accurate (there was no overlap that would confirm it), all I should need it the ending. So far it reads: The new objective elipse thing makes it really hard to see. It's a ma...  [Read More]

I've translated a bit more of it, and I'm pretty sure it forms (a) larger message(s). This is because of the overlap I've found between them. My theory is that it has (a) larger message(s), and randomly takes a piece of it to display every so often....  [Read More]

Im kind of surprised that BeBop hasn't beaten me to this, but the sniper rifle has a lot of text (it changes). I've only begun translating it (my estimate is that I have about half of it). I have a theory that when we have all of it translated, it ma...  [Read More]

Not only could we guess that, we know it to be true. In the Kamino scene in AOTC we see clones of different ages. The next batch (or even several more batches) has already begun! Also, are you sure it is 3 times the rate? That would make the clones i...  [Read More]

In my experience, most people do use a variety of weapons most of the time. And I've never seen a person fighting with just grenades (you only get so many, unless of course the server had "weapon stay" on). Originally posted by Kurgan Yea...  [Read More]

I doubt they would. If they were going to fix stuff, they would tell us so we can stop complaining. And if it was an April Fools thing, I would think it kills the joke to never tell us. Its April 7 now after all. And in the second patch, I would lik...  [Read More]
