with how this topic is going i say Sledge starts up a Twitch.tv account and play this while we watch

WARNING - Sledgestone, (mischievous you!!) get away from this topic and do not read spoilers before you watch the show! #JOKING hahahaha ... naah but seriously, check it out man, it's really that good a show. Every single thing, dialog, scene is well-thought and important. Cannot be forgotten or shrugged away. I can lend you the series in a few days via a care-package. Anyone else current with the series? If you are, lets discuss. Brb, gotta poop.

Pac Rim did terrible domestically but very well internationally in markets where Godzilla, the most famous Kaiju, is far more popular. Godzilla will do better than Pac Rim domestically, and internationally it won't even be close despite what it does in the US. I'd go as far to say even if Godzilla was a worse film it would still do better... It comes down to brand name. Godzilla has a legacy, Pac Rim has none.

Yea Sledge it maxes at level 20 so in your case you'll have 7 levels soldier and when your done 13 levels of whatever Jedi class you chose (I'm assuming Guardian).

Yes, if you ever find a NPC that has a unique name that not "patron" or "citizen" and they have a convo with you, but they dont offer a quest, it probably means you dont have the right character in your party to activate it. It doesnt give you a hint to what character you need. For instance, I visited a planet that required Jolee to activate a quest but I hadn't visited the planet i met him on yet. I played the game using a different order of planets the second time and came across it by chance. However there are some quests that occur that require you to travel to another planet, and it will let you know where to go. Character side story quests may occur like Jolee's or there is one for Bastila where she has to be in your party on a certain planet, and someone she knows runs into her while your walking around a non combat area and informs her of the quest, it takes place on a different planet.

Meh, I just left the AI on whatever was default for them. I only cared about my own ass As for teammates I ran with Jolee (cranky old man Jedi, who could pass that up) and HK-47 on my Darkside character (I love HK-47, he's so freaking hilarious). As for my light side character I don't really remember who I ran with outside of Jolee. I kinda mixed and matched the other companion as I played through.

Everyone plays differently. The first run through, I did the full melee Jedi, so I usually had Carth and either Mission or Jolee. Bastilla too, but I liked Jolee better in terms of what he can do. He's also the cranky old man Jedi and that's just awesome. (Make sure you keep talking to him so he'll tell you stories. I laughed so hard at some of them!) Anyhoo, it's always good to have at least one blaster in the party, and if you keep Carth leveled up and give him the best blasters, he's going to be the best at it. Mission does pretty good with blasters, and she's near essential if you're not going to level up demolition or slicing, but she's pretty weak and can go down quickly if you're not careful. Now, I actually prefered to go through as a blaster Jedi. I thought it was a lot more challenging, and then my party had to include either Bastilla or Juhani for melee. Really, just think about your fighting style and make sure you have at least one melee and one blaster in the party. And SOMEONE that can heal, either it's you or one of the other Jedi. Seriously, that will make things easier in some of the tougher fights! As for grenades, I only used them in a few spots. Mostly, if I was in a fight that was really tough and I had to restart it, when the fight started, I would pause and fill everyone's bar with grenades, and the procede as normal. Lobbing 12 grenades at the baddie right of the bat can be helpful! I didn't really use traps, either, except at the end which would be a spoiler so if you get there and want to know about it, I'll tell you. I really didn't micromange hardly at all. Setting a behaivor type for each member is really all you need to do. The AI isn't always the best, but most of the time it's good enough you shouldn't have to micromanage them. Keep an eye on their health, because they kinda suck at watching their own health, but a quick character change to heal them is all that's needed. For Force powers, even if I was light side, I still took all the Force Lightening tree powers. That's probally the most useful offensive power in the game (at least, IMO). Plus, running down a hallway spawning Lightening Storm and killing everything in my path just makes me giggle like a schoolgirl. But pick what you want now, because you can't level past 20. And when you've finished it, there are some pretty good mods out there you can download, including a few story mods. It's not as extensive a community as Oblivion or Skyrim, but there are some good stuff out there. Makes multiple play-throughs more interesting to me.
