Official Lego StarWars 2 help thread

Hey guys, got a puzzle that needs sorting...post it in here.

I will start things off

I have completed the game but still have loads of things to collect so im going through the game in free play.

In the Mos Eisley mission (the one that was released on the demo) where do you find the red brick? I have searched high and low and just cant find it.

At the end of the Star Wars missions your flying over the death star, I have got all the bits bar one health tank thats behind a long force field. I cant destroy it. How do you disable the force field?

In the Mos Eisley mission the red brick is behind a hidden door. To find it use Obi Wan (or any force character) and use the force on some little dustbins to the left just before you come to the gate with the stormtroopers above it.

"At the end of the Star Wars missions your flying over the death star, I have got all the bits bar one health tank thats behind a long force field. I cant destroy it. How do you disable the force field?"

Found out how to do this..best craft is the Tie Interceptor, keep shooting the 4 generators (two each side of the field), if your doing it right then the two turrets will explode, keep shooting then you will get the healing tank.

Heh, I am glad someone made a thread like this

If that's the one I think it it, you don't even need to do that. There's a clipping glitch, I just flew into the force field full power and grabbed it while the field was still up

I have got everything in Star Wars (IV), except in the very first level where I am missing one minikit. I've played through it twice now doing everything I could think of, but I can't find the last one. I know it's a long shot - but can anyone think of one that is particularly hard to find?

Also, on the Lego City - has anyone figured out what you do with the "moving house"... the one that floats off every time you go near. I've got 995,000 on that level, and I swear that the last bit I need to complete it, but I can't figure what to do

I have read some place that one of the red bricks unlocks a tool to find out where the med kits are.

Right at the far end, by the generator is a door, blow that up.

Loving this game, even though I died loads, I finished Ep4 with about 11% complete

Lots of the kits I couldn't even reach. I guess I'm doing something seriously wrong. Or is the plan to play through and unlock characters then go back again?

Sorry never played these games before.

Also do you need to buy the chararcters or just wait and unlock them?

I dont get many studs either, does that matter to 100% complete unlock?

Edit, also can I see how many medkits I got in each zone and free play to get them, or do I have to play through the whole Episode again?

They pretty much want you to play through the levels again in free mode with the unlocked characters.

dannyjo22 said:

Some characters get unlocked as you progress through the game, the majority have to be bought though.

dannyjo22 said:

In every level there's a certain amount of studs for you to get, once you get this amount you become true jedi, if you succesfully complete a level with the true jedi rating you get a gold brick. You can get true jedi in both free mode and story mode, both of these count toward getting 100% complete.

You can get the mini-kit in either story mode or free mode, so if you miss them in the story you can easily just play that individual chapter in free mode to collect them.

dannyjo22 · 22 Sep 2006 at 07:08

Thanks Crunchman I will just play it through for the story first, the cut scenes are making me laugh out loud. I found an excellent walkthrough too if anyone gets stuck.

Spoilers...

Was given a top tip for this today off a mate, don't bother with the survival achievements until you have 1 million studs. Then buy Ghost anakin as he's the best of the ghosts and he can't die anyway unless you fall off something.

Should make beating the emp a bit easier too

Toppy · 24 Sep 2006 at 23:08

It sure does make the undefeated achievements very easy, for most levels at least. Can't help you with the vehicle levels though, they can be pretty tough and are the only achievements I have left to get now, glad you don't need them for 100%.

That guide you posted sure helped me with the last few minikits I needed, thanks for that.

Tesco · 25 Sep 2006 at 10:23

Well I have finished this game and got 100%. Its well worth playing. If your worried about missing stuff in story mode...dont be! just re-play on free play and get the bits you missed. I Play all the free play levels with The Emporer and Boba Fet. I have over 1.5 billion credits and nothing to spend them on...oh well lol.

Gotta love the 3840 times multiplier. That and the stud spewing fountain.

What fountain!

When I go to the level room in the cantina the story mode and freeplay have X's. Is this because in BOTH modes you have to get the required studs for jedi mode? So I still have to replay story again to get the tick?

I take it I can use extras to get these in story mode?

Creature · 25 Sep 2006 at 14:02

When you get 99 gold bricks, you can build a stud fountain outside.

Yes, you have to do story mode again to get the tick.

Yes, you can use extras in free mode.

Toppy · 25 Sep 2006 at 14:18

Score multipliers make getting true jedi ranks easy. The x2 one alone is two million though, so it can take a while to save for.

dannyjo22 · 25 Sep 2006 at 17:19

Thanks, when I obtain true jedi and it comes up on screen, do I then have to finish the level with it full. By that I mean can I die 10 times and still get the tick if I got it half way through. if that makes sense?

Hmmm 2 million for x2 :eek:

So whats my best strategy to studs. I have 800k saving towards Anakin ghost, maybe best to get the 2 million x2 first? I have about 25 blocks so far. Currently just working my way through free play getting all the Kits and power blocks.

Edit and is that emp glitch supposed to happen or not. Some of the kits I couldnt reach otherwise??

Beepcake · 30 Sep 2006 at 16:44

I think I might have found a bug

I have every minikit apart from one for the Empire Strikes Back. The MiniKit detector tells me it's in the Carbon Freezer room, i'm pretty sure I dark force power the switch near the crane and the minikit should appear. If I do that though, I get a whirring sound, the hole in the floor opens but no minikit

I've tried it 4 times now, in story mode and normal, with and without extras but no joy. Am I missing a step or is it screwed?

This one stumped me for a while too. Once you open the floor, use the crane to pick up one of the stormtroopers that appear in this room and drop him in. The floor will rise up again with pieces to build the minikit.
