psh, staff and duel sabers are awesome, you just let the single saber guys swing, then run up and kick them in the face with the jk2 flip kick, they go down, you staff kata them, and move on

I might actually start going there, my old PC was crappy, so loading times would take a while, and with the time limit, and many players, my FPS would be low, and by the time I got into the server, I would only have like 5-10 mins left, but with my new PC... nice FPS, and like it loads in seconds, so, i might check it out, since im guaranteed a good fight :D

Wow, thanks folks, I'm honored:amidala:

Since unfortunately I am too busy to actually play the game myself, my reward is knowing that others are having fun due to my efforts. Thanks, I appreciate it.

Yes yes, indeed... I love the fact that the saber damage scale is upped. And the bots crack me up.

I almost feell like I'm playing on the old promod server.

Once I get used to playing the game with high saber damage and go to another server I'm like: huh? I have to hit them ten times before they go down? But usually before I finish thinking that the admin has gently saved me the effort to disconnect from the server and return to the main menu.

Haha, when I first went into Amidala's Chop Shop server, I was a noob then. I mistakened the bots for real people, and even talked back to them. Goes to show what a good job Amidala has done to make the bots seems like real people. :)

The best are the ones who try to flirt with the female bots (thinking they are real players): "hey Princess how old are you?"

I enjoy Chop Shop, but it gets boring for me unless someone like Pink Panther, Deathscythe, bluestar, or eidolon is on. You know, the players that make it so that I don't win with a 2:1 ratio.

Shame that it rots your dueling skill away a bit... Thank God I go into Old Folks Home to shave off the bluntness.

The only thing better than the gameplay on Chop Shop are the wide array of conversations that will sprout up.
ex:

"Yeah, I ran across a lake, put on some shoes, and went to the moon."

"Yeah, man. Jelly is fun to eat."

Sound like a bunch of stoned people, but random talk = 1337

Not only that, but the number of 'creative' player names i've seen..hehe..

Sort of. First the third server was running a Disruptor instagib mod, then Asteroids Mod.

Amidala why not changing it to saber only and chnaging the damage to normal two days a week at least.

It would be great.

There's a caption that answers that on the FFA server:

"If i didn't want guns or Force, I would disable them."

Plus she finds SO boring, and has said so repeatedly. Asking her to change it to Saber only is likely to get ignored.

sorry but saber only ctf was only remotely fun in JO due to the fact that you could abuse pull-kicking people to death, or kickin them off ledges... I remember only giving myself one saber force point so I could have a saber and be able to do the acrobatics... the saber was ultimately useless.

And NORMAL saber damage? You have to be kidding. It's as if you're fightinh immmortals when playing ctf with normal saber damage. You have to hit them SO MANY times before they go down that a good runner is bound to make it to the numerous power up lying all over the map... causing the whole game to turn into 'chase the jedi with a flag sticking out of his butt' gametype.

Hey kskh2o have you EVER played saber only ctf in JA?

You cant stop a good runner? you must be a real n00b to not be able to stop them, i have stoped some good runners from good ctf clans, hiding behind walls, waiting at the top of where they wallrun, or just chasing them buny hoping with speed and using yellow swings. I know its harder than JO but been hard makes it more fun, since not everybody can do it.

If you work alone, you will maybe not kill the FC before he reaches his base, but if your team alredy got their flag you have more time to kill him.

Anyways, you are just another JO player that rely on a cheap strategy to win, and since this is diferent you obiously dont like it. Go back to JO.

I play ctf in star wars jedi knight jedi academy cause i want to use sabers, and playing with people that run around the map geting only rockets, heavyrepeaters and their ammo is just anoying, i prefer UT or quakeIII.

So again, saber only, slow force regen, and not jedi master level but the medium one. And well it would be great if some mod gives -25 each time you suicide but not just -1. One of the reasons are the team healers and energizers that use it 2 times then suicide get full force again and repeat.

And lathain valtiel i am aware of the message in the chop shop, thats why i am saying not to change it completely, but to change it once a week if posible. At least to try.

Well JO is jk2, and JA is jk3, if they want to stay with the old game is not my ****ing problem and i dont really care of their pussy reasons.

I play this game to use a saber, not a rocket or any other stupid weapon, if i would want guns ctf i would play UT or quakeIIП which are way better games in that area. Saber only CTF is what makes it unique, other weapons screw it.

And you will say, <but i could use my saber and other weapons as well> Yeah you could but you would suck at it, you wont get good scores you wont help your team and you wont win.

The good guns ctf players do this, spawn, use speed and absorb, get rockets and their ammo, and bunyhop through the map rocketing the FC or geting the enemys flag. Then suicide. And repeat. I have counted how many times they kill themselves, as an overall, it is like 25 times in a round of 20 minutes. Thats how the leet ctf clans play JA CTF wiht guns, they never use their saber AT ALL.

I was at Chop shop just a few minutes ago playing with alot of AOS guys. I was winning with 70ish kills when one of them called me a flamer lamer and told me its common sence not to kill someone with there saber down. Then called me a **** box and a few other stupid remarks. After a few minutes of killing them they left.

I go to Chop shop to get away from dumbasses like this......

Mr. Awesome was a troublemaker on my JK2 server and was banned. Then he changed his IP and name and snuck back in and tried to stay under the radar by behaving himself, but I banned him again just for sneaking in. We exchanged some very unpleasant emails.

I decided to wipe the slate clean with all banned players when Jedi Academy started and he toned down his a-holeness. He is annoying but not nearly as bad as he used to be. I'll watch him more closely though.
