hi all. just started playing it, just a couple of questions:

1) in the swoop bike practice runs on telos, should i be able to go up and down? i don't seem to hit the mines or speed ups. jump doesn't seem to work either. what am i missing here?

2) has anyone made a difficulty mod? i can't believe they haven't improved difficulty from the first game, it was it's main downside. i'm playing now and nothing is challenging, makes it pointless to pick up[ enhancements. maybe i should fight bare hand? anyway, i digress, can i make it a bit harder?

thx

I didn't play on PC, so I'm not sure how swoop controls work there. You should be able to move up and down to some extent, yes.

As for difficulty, I don't believe there are any mods out there. The game was incredibly easy. In fact, it was probably much easier than the first one. The one thing you can do is adjust the difficulty setting in the options menu. You can move it to hard. That helps a tiny bit.

Are U Joking?????????

There are no mods and the game is definately not easy as far as about 99% of the ppl here. GEts wayyyy harder as u go along.

that's strange. i've only got as far as telos but its been stupidly easy so far. like i have'nt gone down to half health yet. if it gets harder that'd be great, but i heard it was too easy from a few sources.

also here's some mods: difficulty mod in miscellaneous called hardcore.

The swoop thing is caused by a bug. You all of a sudden start at 'jump-level' and are unable to hit anything. Try pressing 'start' or something a little later and it should work fine.

Get the hardcore mod, the game is definately a pushover except for a few select battles.

I agree with the difficulty. Except for one part of the game, I felt the game was a push-over both combatwise, and gameplay-wise, but then again - I expected as much from SW:KOtOR 1, so wasn't surprised.

thx all, i'm going to try hardcore on the medium setting. just worked out the bug, that's pretty crap isn't it? the first game seemed so polished,so far i'm really dissapointed with this one. i'm wondering why, a year on, i've paid full price for what seems to be an add-on rather than a new game. and why does it have such bugs?

is there a patch or anything? that bug throws me completely.
