Stranger's Wrath Question
 
Hi all, this may seem like an odd(:D) question, but is it possible in SW to take on more than one main bounty at once? I need to know for a project and I don't have any time to play through it again to check.

On a different note; I've been lurking these forums for a little while and it's really awesome to see so many people who love Oddworld talking about it like this. I honestly think Oddworld is one of the most (if not THE most) interesting games universe out there and I can't wait to see more of it in the future.

Hey welcome to the forums man! I hope you're a stayer, not like those people who just stay for like 2 days and don't come back. (And I hope to god that the other guys don't scare you off too).
As for your question, I don't think you can. I'd have to check on that one but again, it's been such a long time and my Xbox is broken :/

Thanks for the replies; I don't really want to wait for SW HD to come out because I really want to get my project finished before then (call it a self enforced deadline).

I intend to hang around for a while; you'll probably be sick of me soon enough ;)

I don't think that's possible, the missions starts as soon as you select your bounty at the bounty store and you are not allowed to pick an other one when the mission has started.

Sekto Springs 05-13-2011 12:12 PM

I believe each mission path has certain obstructions in the programming that would disallow you from capturing any bounty other than the one you chose from the bounty store.
I remember I wandered into Lefty Lugnutz's territory between missions and neither he or his gang were there.

Now bear with me on this because it has been a very very long time since I've played SW. After capturing the robot. I cannot rememebr his name now all I remember is he's a robot. Anyway after capruting him when you are escaping from his base 2 enemies would appear on the radar but I could never find them. Can somebody give me some info on this? Not sure if this is off topic, I don't believe so since we are talking about capturing bounties.

Wil 05-14-2011 03:19 AM

Yep, that annoyed me too, even after capturing every bounty in the area. Maybe just randomly placed enemies that were left in accidentally?

Sekto Springs 05-14-2011 12:50 PM

His name is Elboze Freely.

Nate 05-14-2011 10:49 PM

He's not a robot; he's an outlaw wearing armour.

In case anyone can't remember what we're talking about, it's at about 12:12 in this video. My impression was that Elboze's tunnels pass near one of the later sections of the game and those are enemies that you kill later on.

I'm pretty sure enemies from other areas don't load until you accept the relevant bounty, though.

Based on the sounds he makes when he moves, his cybernetic eye, and his exposed brain case, I think it's safer to say that he's more machine than Outlaw. At the very least his limbs are mechanical.
I'd like to know his backstory. Perhaps another patient(victim) of Doc's medical (mal)practice.

I believe the word you are looking for is "cyborg".

Elboze was probably my favorite outlaw fight in the game. But its hard as hell to get him alive... atleast when I last played through for the 32nd time.

Wil 05-24-2011 08:14 AM

Elboze was my favourite fight in terms of the learning curve. Every other boss can be defeated by a mixture of running, hiding and firepower. With Elboze, there's a certain way to do it, and you can piece it together yourself.

Really?? I like the character but this was probably the easiest battle in the entire game... .

Are you fucking serious?

Is Elboze is the outlaw you face in an arena type thing and he only attacks you with hist fist? He was the hardest motherfucker in the whole game. Harder than Sekto and his octigi IMO.

Then the internets told me how to beat him.

Well the fact that his dialog said "where is my back armor" + the fleshy back kinda gave you the solution right away, before the fight even started. During the whole fight I just jumped to the next platform, shot him in the back while he went to the button. Jumped to the next platform as he pressed the button etc. . Never touched the ground, never had to fight, was over before it even started.
Still was a fun battle. Love game battles that require certain tactics to defeat them.
I did play it on pc though. So didn't have to deal with the controller setup.

Bullet Magnet 06-12-2011 07:43 PM

Well I figured out how to defeat him while mystified by his cry of "where's my bath armour?"

He's easy to kill and mildly difficult to get him alive because he has a ridiculous regeneration rate.
