Very nice, TheAphextwin. It's good to see some useful mods being made that can assist people and improve their experience of the game. :thumbsup: I probably won't run a server myself, but I can already see how useful this utility will be. What I w...  [Read More]

A utility called All Seeing Eye is good for tracking down servers for all your MP games, including Jedi Academy. I find it more useful, because it lists a lot more servers to play in. ;)...  [Read More]

Yep, I was disappointed with it as well. After being able to walk around at least part of the Academy in Jedi Outcast, and seeing students and trainers going at it - I fully expected an even more expansive and deeper experience at the Academy. Inst...  [Read More]

Many people experience these kinds of issues. Sometimes my game 'hangs' when it is 'Awaiting Snapshot' for an MP level. There must be a bug somewhere that is responsible for these issues...and the only way to fix that is via a patch. Be patient...a...  [Read More]

Practice more and get used to the speed. I like the game the way it is. If you want to walk while fighting...you can do so, if that's how you want to play. Maybe you can even find some like-minded people and set up your own server to play that way. I...  [Read More]

I prefer the Dual Sabers. I'm not very good with the Saberstaff. I can still use the Single Saber (indeed I switch between Dual and One-blade Fast stance quite a bit). I have to agree about the Saber barrier. The problem is that it is too slow to st...  [Read More]

A mission pack would be a nice idea, and I wish Rave/Lucasarts would support MP in this series of games like Epic did with Unreal Tournament. Of course, the emphasis of UT was on MP, and I guess they recognised the benefits of on-going support to kee...  [Read More]

Er...let's put this into perspective. A patch should be released to fix obvious 'bugs' and 'errors' with the game - nothing more. If you want extra stuff for customisation, bots in Siege, and who knows what else, then that should be released as a '...  [Read More]

This is a shameless rip from the www.starwars.com about Plo Koon... Plo Koon was a Kel Dor from the planet Dorin. His physiology was such that he wore protective goggles and his face-concealing antiox mask whenever in oxygen-rich environments. As a...  [Read More]

Well, Lucasarts will have to give the go-ahead for at least one patch, because at the moment there are some people who simply cannot even play the game. Either it crashes on load, or it crashes half-way through. Hopefully someone from Raven or Lucasa...  [Read More]

Erm...what is the fundamental point you're trying to make? Jedi Academy is an FPS game. Star Wars Galaxies is an MMORPG game. There's really no comparison between the two. Why should people pay per month to RPG in SWG when they can do that in JA (...  [Read More]
