Star Wars The Old Republic: Sith Warrior Combat Tactics

[jeppe3333]

So retarded that every MMO have to be inspired by that stupid game WoW, in the ways of combat. Is it that hard to ignore the nerds that have no life and make the combat system fun, like in Star Wars: Episode 3, Battlefront and the Force Unleased?

[Brawler1100]

im going for marauder

[Rodmaster144]

im gonna play as SITH WARRIOR!!! such a gr8 class! :D

:D

[MiniMikeFTW]

Considering most attacks on things like WoW dont even make contact with your opponent, i think this is pretty cool

[CJ1209]

why does everyone hate this so badly i am really really looking forward to it i actually cant wait for the game and i think graphics look good everything looks good so far and its also said that there will be space combat :D

[ZetsubouMFZB]

@CJ1209

People are still bitchy that there won't be a KotOR 3.

[Ponoran1]

im definetely being sith warrior

Dark side will always dominate

[trevuar25]

considering this is all really early footage people should stop whining about the graphics, I'm guessing it's going to look cool at the highest settings no matter what.

[Gurenseitan]

woah like this gonna be like the biggest break in mmo history its got to be p2p though i would prefer it to be b2p

[GuysSeriously]

its an mmo the combats never as good as non-mmo games, its one of the shit things about mmos

[ProElite15]

Yeah this is an mmo and not action game and he just moves his wrists really fast u can see that a bit

[Death2be]

to the people who say the parries done, look bad are blind, he kinda blocks the vibroblades on all sides!

[Saerain]

Yes, his lightsaber makes contact with the blades. What GoggleEyedHermit is talking about is the fact that he doesn't MOVE the lightsaber into position, it's just suddenly in position. That is true.

[wildboy789789]

no he just moves his wrists fast.... its a game... they cant do all the pretending for you

[mikeyzxc2]

I like Kotor 2 fighting better.

[GoggleEyedHermit]

I agreee, I really hope that the combat, and the game in general looks a bit more like KotOR in the end. I'm guessing that this isn't even alpha build.

[DTherat]

Oh, please. The combat in TOR is faster and better looking. Characters cand parry and dodge multiple attacks from multiple enemies and directions, and TOR will last hundreds of hours.

Why in the hell do you think that kotor combat was better?!?!?!?

[GoggleEyedHermit]

Because it's more badass and more realistic - this looks really simple. I mean, it looks like the character has no idea how to use a lightsaber.

[DTherat]

I think that you are the one that has no idea...

If no, please, explain carefully why do you think that the character doesn't know how to use a lightsaber:

PD: Kotor was an awesome game, but the combat was slow and very repetitive, this is much better.

[GoggleEyedHermit]

The way your character fought in KotOr was stylish. This here seems pretty generic.

[DTherat]

The sith warrior relies in pure power and strenght for fighting. They don't use the lightsabers forms of the jedi.

[GoggleEyedHermit]

Actually, they do. They're civilized, not barbarians. And now that you mentioned it, I hope that the styles make their way into TOR. Besides, this doesn't look like power and strength, it just looks like someone's waving the thing around.

[DTherat]

In this video we don't see many moves. In the walktrhough there are much more. In my opinion, the moves are very vader like, that is the objective of bioware.

[GoggleEyedHermit]

Vader wasn't clumsy - that's what these moves look like in my opinion. I guess we'll just have to wait and see, I'm sure BioWare's going to make a superb game.

[DTherat]

But this is not clumsy!!!!

[GoggleEyedHermit]

... oh and unrealistic, look 0:03 - 0:06. He doesn't even seem to move while parrying.

[DTherat]

This is an mmo, not an action game

[Androidindisguise]

because the smart thing to do would be to parry attacks, moron. I guess you never watched star wars.

[DTherat]

In kotor, the character didn't move while parrying. and besides, he couldn't parry or block attacks from multiple enemies and angles!

[GoggleEyedHermit]

In KotOR the character moves more realistically while defending, check any KotOr gameplay vids if you don't believe me. Would you like a character who's not perfect and get a few bruises and scars during battle or the one who barely breaks a sweat while doing... anything? The combat animations in KotOR were loads better and it looked like he was actually dueling.

[DTherat]

I repeat, in kotor the character was unable to parry and block attacks from multiple directions, and the attack animations were always the same.

[Polskmofo]

hes obviously using the force to teliport his arms into position...sheesh
