Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order |OT| Respawn of the Jedi
- Thread starter janusff
- Start date
Photo mode was probably being worked on long before the game shipped, just wasn't ready in time is my guess.
That's an UE4 "feature" unless extensive work is done to customize parts of the engine.. Respawn didn't do it & they sure as hell won't do it after the game has shipped.
Some concept art of Cal and the 2nd Sister
Interesting that they went very far away from these super fantastical designs.

Not if you watched Rebels, the designs were already "chosen", for better or worse.
As far as robes go vs. ponchos, perhaps the ponchos were easier. In a sharp camera angle cut, another character doffs their robe practically off camera. Maybe next game.
I mean it really says so much about how far realtime rendering has to go when the only time I can recall a character taking off clothing convincingly is one scene in Uncharted 4 and even in that scene there are tons of camera angle "cheats."
Really? I had the opposite reaction. Fallen Order really falters when played near Death Stranding.
Oh shit oh shit oh shit
RIP my free time
Yeah that's disappointing.
Got this as an early Christmas gift yesterday. The production values for this game are really nice! There's jankiness with some gameplay animations, but it's easily forgivable. So far, I feel like this channels Metroid Prime far more than anything else. I dig it!
Playing on PC. I'm surprised at how well it runs considering I'm still using a GTX 970 and Core i7 920. Both are overclocked, but I'm getting really good performance at 1440p.

Got my ass kicked more than I thought I would. Overall I had a lot of fun on Grandmaster. Sure it's not Metroid, Dark Souls, Sekiro, etc, but I'd still love to do replays of the game. The lack of cutscene skip is just incredibly demotivating though and keeping people from doing some short and sweet runs. It feels antithetical considering the type of games it draws major inspiration from. I really hope it's something that can be patched in and isn't a case of Force Skip not being canon.
Depending on your difficulty level.. Probably 3 to 5 hours left.
I'm about 40 minutes into the planet after Dathomir. Can someone tell me how long I've got left? My Premier membership runs out on the 13th and I'm hoping I won't have to renew it to finish the game.
I desperately hope it can be learned from a Jedi, somewhere... 😂
Why'd you have to go spoil it, now Respawn will never give us DS powers in the sequel :p lol
I'd rather be a Jedi than a delivery driver, but that's just my half-joking, humble opinion. If you're speaking strictly in technical terms, that's a different story.
Playing the game over again right after I finished it has really increased my enjoyment. The game has some really odd quirks, and the combat takes getting used to, but after having mastered it, I'm absolutely wrecking people on my second time through. Game went from a 7 to an 8.5.
I did retry a 2nd run on Jedi Master for a bit, haven't died a single time all the way to Kasshyk, then I just quit.
The mechanic is really easy once you've beaten the game.
Finished Kashyyk trip 1 last night.
Most enjoyable level so far in my opinion, but all good will I had for it was erased when I got to the cutscene at the end of the level.
The entire cutscene, every time the camera jumped to a new shot, MASSIVE POP IN. Like characters would appear then their clothes and in the case of resistance fighters, their hats last.
Takes you right out of the experience...
I haven't felt this pulled out of the experience by cutscene pop in like this since Halo 2 on the OG Xbox. How is this possible in 2019 with a fully baked engine like Unreal 4 after these guys made GOTY 2016 Titanfall 2?
Playing on XOne X in "quality" mode pulling this shit....but hey at least we're getting a photo mode soon... Yay?

I was about to do some cleaning up with trophies last night but the performance on my pro being this bad is too much. I will patiently wait for another performance patch.
Playing on PC. I'm on my second planet and having a lot of fun. I'm thinking about switching the controls to a more Souls-like feel with block on LT, basic attack on RT and Force attack on RB, which should help with camera control during combat.
The production is fantastic and the Star Wars elements fit perfectly into this kind of game.

Do it. Let's you attack without being locked on pretty easily. Just swapped ◼️ with R1 and 🔺with R2. Didn't change R2/Left trigger, since the way that power is used.
Just installed it and after starting the game for the first time with the new patch, my PS4 Pro froze totally, had to go for the hard reboot. Not sure if it's the patch or what :/
Used Push often and seemed to stop the attacks long enough for me to get a good few hits in. Was on normal difficulty tho
I stayed aggressive, and the
dual lightsaber
After I install a game, but before I play it, I always 'rebuild database'. Give it a shot.
Looking for some feedback on this new patch on PS4 Pro.....wondering if any of the juttery jank has also been fixed along with what they announced
That makes sense and would put it more in line with games like God of War 2018 and other games with this kind of play style. With the default controls it's hard to switch targeting while in combat. I'll definitely switch it tonight.
Just goes to show just how different the feel is between Soulslikes and DMC-style action games.
It worked fine after restarting PS4, and now I'm looking at the credits. Great game!
... although it did start showing its cracks here and there, and I had to drop the difficulty down to normal for the last fight 😒
Wondering the same thing. I put the game on hold until I hear it runs better.
Yeah, this feels perfect when changed, but (IMO) something like Nioh works great using face buttons for attacks.
Not sure if this would be a spoiler but just in case
So I didn't go to Dathomir until it was a story reason.
Does anything else happen if I decided to go to Dathomir first after leaving the first planet?

More initial impressions:
Respawning....takes a while. It feels like last gen!
I don't know what an emitter is. I tried two and couldn't tell the difference. Is it the sound the lightsaber makes?
I got wrecked by a frog. Will come back to you another time you big green bastard.
I haven't encountered any bugs so far, which is nice. I have fallen to my death several times though, which is not just me being rusty at this kind of game (been playing nothing but strategy games on PC for months), but because the camera sensitivity is shit, and Cal moves a little weird.
Anyway, here's my first photo mode:

An emitter is the part of the lightsaber that actually emits the blade. It's one of the cosmetic parts.
Weird, I couldn't tell the difference, nothing changed! Maybe it lagged every time I switched between the two. I'll keep an eye out next time.
The Force is strong with that amphibious fuck. When you come back later you'll make him your bitch. :)
