Manually toggle on/off your lightsaber?

[Requin des bois]

Is this possible? Or will it be scripted (when enemies nearby, etc)?

I believe they said somewhere that you can but i don't remember where exactly. Also, that one video showing them going through a dark cave is another one that makes it seem like it's manual too.

Well, that's precisely the point. It seems to be scripted to combat and enlighten some dark areas... :/

Yeah, the vids I saw made it look scripted. At no point did I ever see it come on, and go off, like someone was controlling it.

It certainly feels that way. I hope it's not the case though; would love the ability to just turn on a lightsaber at will rather than scripted scenarios for it.

Probably scripted. Battlefront II didin't have this option either but they add it later. Not sure if you can do it single player in SWB II but you can do it in multiplayer.

Are you for real?

There's no reason for it to block you from activating it in the wild.

IF I decide to do that, then yeah, there should be consequences. But I feel like I should be the one to decide, and not some scripted limitation. Just a thought.

Perfectly viable question. I would like to know as well.

It would be neat if you can do that.
