Shingara Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Will HK be added to our companion roster or will we have to permanently dismiss a companion to make room for him? I.E. will i have to fire Rusk to make room for HK? Well be added, there is no way to delete, kill or remove companions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdonkey Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I want it! will you be able to gain affection with it? Long as HK-51 does not turn into the Robot Chicken Humping Robot then it would be ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikalonius Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I was waiting for him to says "Hell, it's about time." Nice homage, Bioware. Still, I can't wait for my HK-51. My Agent will be the first to get it. Two Psychopathic androids on one ship, done! I just wish my Voss wife could join me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xevista Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Very cool. However i feel that trailer could of been reworked. Not saying i can do better job i cant but it just seemed to drawl out then he says Greetings Master at the very end and thats it. Let's see him in action!!

MaliceX Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Well be added, there is no way to delete, kill or remove companions.

Setsugetsuka Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Guess I'm alone in thinking that it's a waste of time to make such a video only to preview a single companion. I was more hoping for a preview of a lot more new features if they were going to make a vid like this, oh well. Disappointed, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Relyt Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 What, no "meatbag" reference? That is more of an HK-47 thing. Also I look forward to assassinating my oppositions with HK-51 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasgruberg Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 ok I GOT THE CHILLS from that trailer!!!!!! I had my doubts during the dead times and 1.2, but this game is surpassing my expectations in all matters. They fixed most of my complaints, group finder, moddble gear, RWZ is out. All thats missing is a cross server que for rated warzones and were set!! Cant wait for a new content patch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlesian Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 That was a nice trailer! I hope it will be fun recruiting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Obvious Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Will they just make a movie with these awesome CGIs' soon or what?!?!?! It won't happen. First let me start by saying the studio responsible for those CG trailers that everyone loves is named BLUR. Second people have been saying/asking for years why don't they (Blur) make a full length movie, and for years Blur has responded by saying that they aren't a big enough studio to produce a feature length movie. The amount of time they spend on a trailer that's only a few minutes takes them (as a studio) the same amount of time it takes for an average feature length film to be made. The other thing that people don't know about Blur is that because they are so good and sought after they've gotten to the point where they charge $1 million per minute of footage produced. In other words it's always super expensive to use/hire them. The following link is to Blur's official site which shows off a number of trailers they've done for projects like TOR, Force Unleashed, Arkham, DC Universe Online, etc. Note that it is only a sample of their work and not their entire portfolio. For instance while all the TOR trailers are on there, none of the cinematics for Marvel Ultimate Alliance are on the site. http://vz3.blur.com/work Fun Fact: The Jedi that Malgus kills in the original Deceived trailer or rather the Jedi you see front in center every time you boot up the game, or on the box art, etc, is modeled after one of Blur's action directors. At E3 one year people kept saying to him "don't I know you from somewhere?" but were never able to quite place exactly what they knew his face from. Turns out it was the Deceived trailer. Jesus, I wonder how many would see them Probably not as many as you think. While we as fans like that everyone would see a movie like that the reality is that it wouldn't have nearly the appeal as a live action Star Wars movie. It would basically be a SW movie specifically for SW fans rather than a SW movie for the masses. Yes, I'm fully aware that a movie for the fans would no doubt be a better overall movie than one made for the masses I'm also aware that the one made for the masses is always going to make way more money which is why you so frequently see "for the masses" type movies when it comes to adaptions or licensed movies. I would love to see BioWare do this with every major update, release a cinematic trailer to accompany it. Perhaps not all of it cinematic but strung together with actual gameplay footage, but would be great! It's very unlikely given how long they take to do and how expensive they are. Not to mention it would always seem ridiculous that they'd keep spending millions on making CG trailers instead of putting that money instead into the game. They'd never be able to justify doing it. This is probably the real answer but lets not play "Pretend you know for a fact" The fact is that you can't remove companions from your party and as long as there's scripted story content where all the companions are in a scene together ala Chapter 3 for every class you're never going to be able to remove companions. It would take too much work and there'd be no pay off for doing it. Also even if you "had" to remove a companion from your party for HK-51, everybody would just end up choosing the ship droid.

Stryker_uk Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Can't wait.... I wonder if he will say "meatbag" like the original HK-47 which the 51 was based off of did. Cause if 51 does then that will be extremely epic Whilst i hope they do it is unlikely as HK-47 said this due to personalisation by Revan not because of any programming that the 51's will share. (i presume). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faycommando Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 SO. You need one Mid level char from the opposite faction to get him is what I read earlier.. Dose that mean like lvl 25 because mathematically that is as mid lvl as it gets. Or do you need to be at a certain point in story progression I wounder (ie. end of chapter 2)?

Eanelinea Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Awe-some!!! I for one can not wait until more content is released. With or without HK-51, or other companions. But Bioware, please for the love of all that's holy, create more companion dialogue/quests/interaction. I've finished 33 out of 40 and the one's I've completed don't talk to me anymore. *forever alone* *bounces* So excited!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what i've heard rumor-wise, you must have one level 50 (imp or pub) and one level 25 (opposite of the 50) to get HK-51. All benefits in this game come from having one of each class. If one doesn't want that, one doesn't get the benefits. Look at Legacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesboyo Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 besides jedi and sith will other classes be able to get HK-51 too? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
