Star Wars: Jedi - Fallen Order (Respawn Entertainment)

I've banged a few hours into this so far, really enjoying it.

Combat actually feels worse, no, more restricted than I remember the older Jedi Academy being. But then I used to play that online against other

I can't see the issue with a lot of the puzzles people are talking about, I don't seem to have much of an issue with them, more about timing with some of them.

The story has been good so far and although I like not having markers to follow towards objectives other than on the holomap at the same time, I find it frustrating finding a route.

Is anyone aware of any mods that let you cut people up like you can with the animals? Seems rather a daft omission from the game.
 
They are completely different. JK2/Academy's combat was FPS based. It was a lot faster, super responsive and enemies less predictable (it actually had some AI, shocker!). With a LOT more abilities which you could sort of combine and overlap. It's much better tbh.

This game is like RPG combat with set, scripted sequences. You lock on and mash buttons in the correct order to win.

I took out an Origin Premier subscription to play this and it renews in 10 days time. I reckon I'm 80% of the way through the game, hoping I can finish before my sub renews. Total play time seems to be around 20 hours which I am currently at, but I seem to be slow in making progress.

I doubt it’s moddable and they said there was no human dismemberment as this would have resulted in a higher age rating and likely fewer sales.

I would absolutely hate being under time pressure to finish a game!

I dislike time pressure within games so this would be like a special version of hell for me! :P

The story side of the game really picks up in I'd say, the final third/quarter. It just gets more exciting if you like Star Wars.

I think a lot of people will give up before then though as there does feel like there's a lot of senseless running forwards and backwards which gets tedious. All the locked short cuts ****** me off no end, and how late you get decent abilities/customisation.

final third/quarter? I know this game isn't a relatively long game (roughly 20 hours i think) but for it only to get good at the 15 hour mark is a no from me. I'll come back to it once it on sale a few years down the line
 
Is it just my settings, or is this game a beast to run?

Im on 1440p Epic settings, and averaging is some areas 75-90 fps :eek:

Im on a 8700K and a 2080ti!

Just get an origin premier sub, £15 for the month and play it then. That's what I'm doing, no way I'm paying full retail for it.

It is a good game, just depends what you like
 
Played a couple of hours of this tonight, really enjoying it. Its a great game, but..

Now and again I just a little stuttering for a split second, the FPS is not dropping when this happens.

If someone can shead some light on this that would be great! Mabye if its settings or just the optimisation of the game, either way..

Cheers.

Unfortunately not. Stuttering is an issue across all platforms.

I have a beastly machine and have tried every suggestion to reduce it, to no available.

It’s only really bad when a scene loads then it tends to settle down.

Decent game though but I’m holding off continuing to see if the stuttering to fixed.

Thanks for the reply.

The stuttering isnt bad that it makes the game annoying, its very minor. But im very OCD hence why i asked if there was any sort of fix :D

Apparently locking the fps to 30 stops the stuttering. Meh

In that case I will live with the stuttering, I dont think i really wanna run this at a capped 30 FPS! :eek:

2080ti and an 8770k here and any resolution up to 4k,which I play at, you get the stuttering at the beginning of each scene or level. Its the game not your hardware so no need to worry.

Cheers mate, mkaes me feel a bit better :p

I was wondering what was up, as playing RDR2, COD MW, BF5 etc, none of that happens, so I thought I would add it in here to see you guys opinions. Cheers.
