Why Stormtroopers Suck at Aiming...

I was playing the demo to Jedi Outcast and I dashed to the shield generator thingy (the big shaft area). I opened the door but I didn't go out of it, because the stormtroopers started talking.

Stormtrooper1: blah blah blah (something about their blasters sucking)
Stormtrooper1: Once you use a blaster carbine you never want to go back.
Stormtrooper2: What's the difference?
Stormtrooper1: It's all in the kick back. Once you fire it throws off your aim, and then you have a hole blasted through your armor.
Stormtrooper2: Well, we're far from the Core Worlds (the New Republic), so I doubt their will be little resistance.
Stormtrooper1: Keep talkin like that and you'll be the first one down when the fighting starts.

*stormtrooper1 walks away and I run out and push Stormtrooper2 into the shaft with Force push and then continue with the game laughing out loud *

So that's why they can't aim for beans: their guns have a hard kickback!

i liked JK2...the AI's not that bad. I finished it. I usually like to mind trick one of the troopers and force grip the other, then the next one when he wakes up big grin .....or cut'em dow.....too bad they don't show cuts that well, only arms and leggs. I want head and body baby, yeah!

The code's real easy.

Just open up the console.

Then press: SaberRealisticCombat 1

I think.

Lack of proper training due to the overconfidence of the Empire that a resistance moment could not cause any problems. IMHO.

Only by ROTJ. And it is only in computer games where shioelds on fighters offer any serious protection.

In ANH, the TIE Fighters are easily the equal of the X-Wings and the shields don't seem to do the Rebels any favours.

Err... isn't the TIE Figher/Star Destroyer comparison completely irrelevant?

I'll try to explain it

1) rebels: VS Empire:
X-wing VS Tie-fighter

2) rebels: VS Empire:
Falcon (more advanced shields) VS Star destroyer (more guns so more hits)

that was why I compared the two,
I mean that the shields do make a difference, on the falcon, and not only against Tie-Fighters
