A pet baby rancor would be a good party member. on one world you could have a choice of either killing it or making it a party member. and as it gains levels it grows into a massive monster. still a loyal pet though

Like i said in a previous thread some races as jedi and not as jedi like Nautolan, Cerean, Iktotchi, and Kel Dore just to name a few i'd like to have in my crew.

Also another suggestion i made in a previous thread is a Fett as a crew member.

And lastly i think the two droids should return and Ebon Hawk and for the players that want a different ship a choice of a ship to use.

[QUOTE=lightbulb]A jedi droid is a genius idea.

The concept of a jedi Ithorian makes my head giggle.[/QUOTE]

Technically Grevious wasn't a Jedi droid, just a droid who had been trained to use a lightsabre by a Jedi. He couldn't use the force, which means no Jedi status.

I'm happy with the current two droids. I rarely used them but they were fun to have around in conversations and could make good stuff.

I think I've already written in this thread, but oh well, I'll say whats currently on my mind with new characters. I want characters with useful must have abilities or powers. Bao-Dur's shield disrupting thing was nice, but most of the time I forgot to equip him with it in fights and punched away (on the rare occassions I actually did use him). Maybe not all force related, but at least some of them.

Well their is a thread on this character already but since your asking, above seeing Revan and Exile, above seeing all the other previous characters i'd like to see a Fett as a crew member.

There has been numerous arguments on this topic but i have proof that there can be a Fett in KOTOR series. The Fetts resemble the mandalorians so maybe the player can join the crew while in a event with the mandalorians.

yes the fett thing can be done, and it wold be cool too. there even is a armour that seemed to have belonged to a fett. it wold b cool if the fett is a mandalorian and is sent by mandalore to aid u (mandalore being busy with... other things)

Cassus Fett was Mandalorian General, wanted for killing a republic admiral in the Battle of Jaga's Cluster. Supposedly dead, itd be cool if he wasnt, and joined your party, not telling who he was until the end.

Well both of you just laid out the proof for me thanks

Yoda

How about a Yoda type charater, he could be really short but really strong.

Phreddie · Post by **Phreddie** » Tue Jan 03, 2006 7:57 pm

I mentioned a yoda charachter earlier, my vision would be small, T3 size, fast, and strong in the force, with a low strength and maybe a high dex, but definitly a high wisdom, and mediium to high charisma.

u could as well call him yoda. this character suffers of a lack of originality, as dose, a little, the fett one. I think that hk47 is the most original (and very funny) character that will ever be in kotor games ever.

marten0305 · Post by **marten0305** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 11:15 pm

Not everyone wants originality well some players would like it and some wouldn't that is why i brought up the idea about having multiple characters to pick for your crew.Personally i'd like a bit of both.

I dont care what anybody says i think a Fett would be a cool character to have however unoriginal it is he would still be a awsome character and useful.

And a Yoda type of character would be kinda cool but maybe not all powerful like Yoda.

why not turn to Yoda character on it's head, and have a character that's the same species, but, contrary to expectations, is an inept jedi. In his backstory, you could say he's a cousin/brother of Vandar's, and was thus expected to be strong in the force. However, you could have him leave the order when he was a padawan, frustrated because he didn't have Vandar's ability/confidence. This would explain why a) he's a relatively weak character when you meet him (necessary for character development) and b) why he wasn't killed during the jedi purge during the civil war. Naturally, your character would would show him that he's stronger in the force than he realizes as the story progresses. This also sets him up to be either dark or light side, depending upon your character's path.

I don't think anybody wold be interested to go in a battle along a 50cm yodalike thinging. the yoda character was imagined small to be the simbol of good and wisdom but in a inapt fizical state (or almoust inapt). if u put a dark character in such a state, it woldn't signify anything at all. it just woldn't make sense

Phreddie · Post by **Phreddie** » Fri Jan 06, 2006 4:40 pm

of course hed be a lightsider, I hope they get rid of influence, sort of, you should only be able to influence force adepts, not nonsensitives/masters.

And he would be the size of T3 roughly, so no probelsm on size.

Darth Itchy · Post by **Darth Itchy** » Fri Jan 06, 2006 6:07 pm

I dunno, I kinda liked the influence thing. I'd be sad if they got rid of it, since i thought it was an improvement to the gameplay. And in terms of size, "Size matters not", remember? Evan a miniature Sith Lord would still be able to throw one mean lightning bolt.

marten0305 · Post by **marten0305** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 12:13 am

Well i wish they would define what race Yoda is so i dont have to keep saying Yoda like

(i'll just say a Yoda)

But a Yoda would be a fun and entertaining character in a humorous way but i dont think i would recruit him if i get a choice.

The force influence was kinda gay if you think about it. A Jedi that can make other force sensitives that i dont like at all. I think if they bring back force influence they should limit it to only one and that one has to be force sensitive, just he/she doesn't know it yet.

You couldn't make force sensitives, it's just that you found out through the game that several of your party members happened to be force sensitive, and that's what made them such great jedi breakers/warriors/balloon animal makers/etc. But I agree with you, they really wh*red out the force in K2.

On an unrelated topic, you know what I'd like to see? Non-human MAIN player characters. All the alien species are what make the SW universe great. Maybe just one or two non-human species, and not Ewoks or Gand or anything that makes T3-M4 look like HK-47 (that's okay for non-MPCs, though). If that would be too hard, you could even make it that you can play M/F Humans, F Twi'leks and M Wookies (for example). I can admit a bias though as I love playing female twi'leks.

And for more MPC work, how's about this time we're not stuck being a puppet for the republic? How about you start out as a Grey Jedi or even a Sith? K2 allowed you a bit more freedom as you could be pretty independent and could even kill some jedi masters, but how come you always got attacked by evil people? This time I wanna bury my 'saber in some republic flesh!!!

Needless to say I nearly always play dark side and have to work to even de neutral.

Spoiler

In KOTOR there was an NPC like Yoda called Master Vandar he was blue instead of green but; he wasn't in KOTOR2 and there was no info about him either

. Samething about the Planets Tatoonie & Manan they just disapeared without anymore info into the story. It would be neat if you could place as other races as your main character and not just humans...I think playing Twilek, Cerean, Kel Dor, Nautolan, or a Zabark would be pretty funn instead of just playing as humans gets kinda boring, I didn't like how KOTOR2 ended it's just one of those things that didn't end right like there's something missing even though they did release KOTOR2 earlier then they were suppose to somethings got left out, like the Sub-Level Military Base on Telos...It would've been neat if it opened up after you rebuilt HK-47, like a becon went off and he needed to go there, and you learned more about him, and the HK-50's it could've been where they were being made KOTOR2 just had so many things that didn't all add up.

spoilers so please highlight to read:

Spoiler

that's because if you do the ds route in kotor1, master vandar is killed when the republic fleet is destroyed by bastila using her battle meditation to make the sith unbeatable in the space battle. he was on the main republic ship that was destroyed.

as for the hk-47 bit, a big part of that story was cut and is being restored by the TSL restoration project people - originally there was supposed to be the droid factory and all that stuff in the military base.

marten0305 · Post by **marten0305** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 2:09 pm

Well whatever happened with the force influence, i hope it doesn't return i hated it. I liked having a mix of force sensitives and non force sensitives. When everybody becomes force sensitive it kinda becomes gay.
