I just bought this game. I am trying to download the patch (1.03) but it's so damn huge. A 24.8MB size. wow! that will take me a very long time.

So the question is, is the patch necessary? will I encounter a game stopping bug if I did not have the patch?

edit : test sig

Except for maybe one bug.

If at one point you have to chose one character to get the others out of trouble, don't chose the stealty character.

You mean like aboard the Leviathan, and you choose Mission to free the others ? Because i didn't have any bugs bothering me at all in that spaceship.

I think the patch mostly fixes balancing issues. So it's up to you whether you want it or not.

Just download it overnight or something.

For the most part, Star Wars games in general kick ass.

My list of kick ass SW games (well, ones I own anyway):

X-Wing
Tie-Fighter + Defender of the Empire
X-Wing vs. Tie-Fighter
X-Wing Alliance
SW: Rebellion
DF2: Jedi Knight
Jedi Knight 2
Jedi Academy
KOTOR

I want the new one too...I'm gonna convince my G/F to get it for me for christmas

I'm also gonna get KOTOR 2 when it comes out.

I want another sim though...it's time for another damn sim. There should be a whole expansion pack or even a whole new game (I dunno though, the grahpics in XW:A are honestly beautiful, despite its age, I haven't seen a prettier space sim, although Freespace was DAMN pretty). There are just so many damn ends to tie up.

I'd really like a WC3 style SW sim, where you have like dialogue options, and ways to interact with people. That game pwned.

Anyway, enough ranting from me.

The character in question will go in stealth mode, and if your pc has a low spot check, you won't be able to spot the character, and the game will hang there because since you can't see the character you can't get it's dialog.

In this case the dialog is the cutscene...

In that situation pick the Badass with the regeneration, (since he's a tank), or the cat woman (force). The stealthy one (mission) sucks IMHO, unless you sneak attack like crazy.

Bah, i had Mission clearing out that entire room full of Sith troopers at the end of the hallway, no problems.

Probably because i spent some points on her meleeskills earlier in the game. I knew what was coming, see ?
