Stuck on level
I love those games, but fuck was this my experience. Rarely have the patience for that shit. Still has that wonderful old school Star Wars atmosphere, though.
I only remember a star destroyer level that i could not find an exit out of for the life of me. The rest of jedi outcast was not a problem
Shit level design .
Especially academy
What level?
Really sad there aren't more replies. Then I remember that 98% of this board is 16 and under and has no idea what Jedi Knight is.
Jedi Outcast was my fav though. So many hours logged on that fucker. Remaster pls
I can't fucking hit anything in Jedi Outcast, the shots are so fucking slow they always move out of the way
I finished the game at least 8 times and I don't remember the secret area the Op is saying.
That is hard to believe considering the AI has a tendency to stay in place
Movie battles 2 best mod
>play jedi knight 2
>play almost 75% of it
>it is great, but for some reason it is kinda boring
>can't beat the boss and go to settings to check difficulty
>find out music volume was set to 0
Man, I still need to replay it...
most of the jedi knight games were difficult to progress, but outcast took it to another level
outcast hitboxes were tiny, you could fire point blank and still miss
This still happens pretty often to me in yon shooters of olde (classic Doom, Quake 1/2 etc.)
>Luke is supposed to open the door for you and let you progress
>instead Luke locked up in the room with bunch of stormtroopers and refuses to open
>"Hey Luke, I realise you are gay, but it's not the time for this"
>"LUKE!!!!!!!!"
Not him but the level with the bar, the star destroyer, the level with the millenium falcon stuck in the hanger, the level where your ship is going through warp speed or whatever, a lot of it. Nearly every level honestly.
Yes the game has very poorly thought out level design, but the hurtful thing is that they have such a damn good combat system with the lightsaber! They could have gotten away with very simple levels that played up how fun fighting was but they chose to not explore those combat mechanics because they felt some obligation toward making dumb labyrinths, I guess.
Doom 1 and 2 definitely has much better levels with a lot less trouble spots.
This happened a lot to me in Dark Forces.
I got stuck 5 minutes in Dark Forces and literally stopped playing
Recently got this on that one mine level, ran in complete circles trying to turn of that heat room with the floating platforms until i realized you had to make a drop while the piston thing was out to land on
THEN i ended up failing because the guy i was capturing got eaten by those bug things, and my last quicksave was too far back that i said fuck it
>Nice level design, Jenkins. Just one thing - change this door to a well-hidden grate that you have to find and go through.
>see a bifurcations in the area
>"I think the boss is right up ahead, I'll just explore this another part to get some potions/herbs/etc"
>enter boss room
Kek, you dont even get the lightsaber.
>you can never go back to the area you missed
seriously, all these missions in the beginning are some tedious bullshit, gimme the lightsaber and make the combat fun already, half all the blasters cant shoot worth a shit, and it feels like every trooper needs like 6 hits to die
>to finish level have to go down giant drop that would normally kill you
>no way to know without trial and error
lmao
>spent hours slugging myself in the dungeon
>finally find a way out
>save point ahead
>save the game
>last boss ahead
>get butt raped
>try to grind in the dungeon
>can't go back
>save overwrited
>get to the boss which is clearly supposed to be defeated in saber combat
>kill him with blasters because all that running around looking for exist trained your autism levels above the powers of force users
Boss fights are 90% random so just try until you defeat him without even taking a hit.
Did I post in this thread already? I had a similar problem on the same level, only I got stuck figuring out how to progress when I was missing a switch that blended in with the rest of the technobabble wallpaper.
>Boss fights are 90% random
?
From my experience, you just randomly mash sabers until one of you die
The very first level after you get the lightsaber is painfully hard and force the player to use both melee and range, many many snipers everywhere.
That's not how it works in jedi academy at least
I was playing Lunar: Eternal blue and was completely underlevel'd and spent all my money on items to get there. Couldn't even buy anything from the vendor.
I got fucked so much, but one time I finally beat him in the most desperate way, When the animation scene begun to play, my shitty playstation 1 froze because the CD was scratched and could only load fighting scenes.
In the multiplayer if you do that you get fucked.
I only played jedi outcuckst
hell I have to get my shit together and play academy
>random greedos can snipe you from 5 miles away with deadly accuracy in 0.5 seconds on nar shadaar
in jedi academy you just roll forward and attack for instagibs
Even better, do a special move and gg
>kyle, i hear you want to take revenge on a talking dinosaur. this is very angry and hateful! anyway, here's your lightsaber back.
>kyle, i hear you want to take revenge on a talking dinosaur. this is very angry and hateful! anyway, here's your lightsaber back.
FFFFFFFFFFFFUCK THIS LEVEL
but this level had a cameo from billy dee williams
leaves you way too open
That level is too op, after that the rest of the game feels easy.
garbages
Academy mods were too fun.
Again, movie battles 2 best mod.
>playing through for the first time in years on the highest difficulty, totally forgot about Nar Shaddaa
>the snipers disintegrate you with one shot
>getting majorly pissed
>whenever I get pissed at a part in a game consistently I look up stuff about that part just to make sure I'm not alone in the world on it making me pissed
>discover on the lower difficulties Kyle deflects the shots
>end up even more pissed
And there I was thinking Jabba's ship would be the hardest part of the series. At least you can cheese that part and skip most of the kell dragons with a grenade jump
Kyle didn't even get his ale.
online only which sux
yes he did. he even drank a bit
Nah, it's fun, but I think they should do coop maps.
>but first you have to traverse my wonderful hall of puzzles, I spent a long time on those so don't argue
Oh yeah that guy. Jedis
>kill jan in dark forces 2
>she's alive in outcast
WTF lucasarts
Light Side in DF2 was the canon one.
great games which would have no sucess nowadays normies cant stand being lost
>inna JA
>meet some edgelord with 2 sabers
>get a cheeky hit
>DARKRAGE.mp3
>roll forward to instagib him
>he uses muh Kreia special attack
>can't cancel my rolling animation
>get 1 shotted with full health
I legit had to look up where to fucking go in one of the earlier levels, some mining facility right before you meet Desann. There's this pipe that sometimes extends out and you have hop on it, but unless you went there when it happened to extend, you'd never see it. Suck bullshit
Fuck all those cunts for retconning Kyle
Fucking Nar Shadaa
