Ya heres a really stupid idea but I think it might be cool

Why not a tie-dye lightsaber? It would be kinda like the Lava lamp idea but Its four or five different colors in one. :rolleyes: It sounds kinda stupid but if you picture maybe a dark blue with purple and some other colors it would be pretty sweet! :D

I think it would be nice to be able to design your own hilt,and create new ones any time at a workbench,and as for colors,additional ones couldnt hurt,and i really like that idea about your lightsaber dimmimg and glowing as you go through the game,great idea.I'd also like them to allow you to learn all 7 of the lightsaber forms instead of just 4 or 5.

Pfftt, you and your "English language"
Okay okay, four words, but how about THIS for an idea?

Some different KINDS of light saber as well, which could be discovered through mini games where you try and fit the crystal into certain configurations in the light saber. I know I know, it's kinda lame... But in the back of my mind somewhere I seem to strongly belive that there would be a market for Light Saber Axes and Spears.

[QUOTE=DarthSion]I think there should be more ds lightsabers, theres really only violet and red now, kinda sux so i'd say yes to black. Silver is really basically white, but i'd like to see a gold lightsaber or like a mixture lightsaber or something. Orange is pretty cool though.[/QUOTE]



Actually there is a gold colored lightsaber. I use it all the time. Well not all the time. I remember getting it from somewhere but I also use cheats to get it to.

I'm moving this thread to the Kotor 3 forum, seeing as it is concerning the (possible) 3'rd installment.

crazy idea

heres a crazy idea. How about multiple colors. You no two color crystls in the hilt. Half green half blue or a see though saber beam. Spose it would be kinda weird as it would look like there is not saber but, the enemys would crap themselves. Being struck down by an ivisble force (lol pun on the would force there). brown sabers lol. i dont; know. how many more colors can u have for a saber that isn't already out there. hmmmmm, i must meditate on this for a wile.

How come orange and bronze look the same on my game? The orange should be like the orange in jedi academy.

They should just go into different tonesand not colours. I dont think black is good because the middle is normally quite white with the colour around it.

Yeah, different shades would be okay. Maybe lighter or darker greens and blues, for example.

I dunno I kind of just like the original 5 and they seem to stand for each type of jedi.

Lavender - Spirituality and healing. Independent jedi who may offer their services to medcenters or mobile medical units.
Green - Harmony and growth. Scholars and diplomats who possess great knowledge of the Force, often becoming instructors.
Blue - Peace and Combat. Notable Guardians that may act as a kind of special police for the Republic.
Yellow - Caution and endurance. Dispatched to understand life's potential and investigate unusual concentrations of the Force.
Red - Naturally red represents blood and fire, so it's chosen to represent the Dark side of the force.

Orange and teal, I believe are just variations of yellow and green... which I guess variations are nice, but I believe they still mean the same thing.

I also heard that at IMDb it says on episode two, Windu's lightsaber was purple after the actor requested it because he thought it would look cool and so he was the first to ever use a color other red, green or blue in the movies.

Oh I prefer the lavender with green as a second choice.

Being how my weapon of choice is closer to an axe and not a sword. However I believe the aspect of an axe is that you are to use the weight of the end and swing it to create a forceful blow, seeing as how the blade of a lightsaber is made of light and therefore weighs less than air, a lightaxe would become obsolete.


Oh also I've been to many other sites and have learned that the colors Silver and Black represent FANBOYism. :D :rolleyes:

There were plenty of fallen Jedi who used purple lightsabers, as well.

Oh whats next?
Magenta Trainquility and death? Weak in combat and horrible in the force? Act as a kind of special, just incase everything else backfires?

Yeah i realize that in the video games there were plenty of fallen jedi who used purple lightsabers. I dunno why, I didn't make the SW universe. But remember Windu, a good guy, also uses a purple lightsaber. I think that's because lavender represents independence, but it also stands for spirituality and religous jedi. So I guess some sith that are super religious would be the purple lightsaber users. But I also mentioned in a previous post that I think the origin of the purple lightsaber came from the actor who plays Windu as a request because he thought it would look cool.

As for blue, I guess I should said Peace keeping and Combat, instead of just peace and combat.
