Actually the differences between the games were extremely minor, so minor in fact you'd never notice them unless you were a hardcore "saber only" player. JA is JK2 with some graphical/gameplay tweaks and a couple of new weapons added. Othe...  [Read More]

In about a month the game will celebrate it's one year anniversary. How fast should sequels to a game be made? This isn't "The Sims" after all... And remember how everybody complained that JA felt "Rushed"? It came out barely...  [Read More]

I'll start off.... C++ is a programming language. You need to learn how to do it in order to use it (there are books for sale, online sources, etc.) you also need a compiler (you can buy these and get them free some places, etc). I imagine you'd fi...  [Read More]

Chances are anywhere from 2 weeks prior to the game's release to a few weeks after. That's generally how it works. Now a lot of companies release a demo only after the game has gone gold, but this is Lucasarts we're talking here, and generally they...  [Read More]

No matter what the gametype, I just always allow EVERYTHING at JediMaster level. I keep Force Regentime at the NORMAL default (200) though, and this seems to work the best. If people whine, I just ignore them. It's my server after all, they don't l...  [Read More]

Not sure. I've mainly used ASE for rcon outside the game, but it doesn't show the chat text either. Basically I just would have to FTP in and download a copy of the log files (unless it's on my own machine in which case I can just copy and paste) an...  [Read More]

Well, at least that's something. Tell him that if he does well, Kurgan's Meatgrinder will return soon... I found a decent host, now if they stay in business long enough for me to get a Siege server started... but I really want those siege fixes/tab...  [Read More]

Whoa, thanks for responding so soon. I'll try that.. hopefully something will happen. I was about to edit the thread title to say "beta" at the end so you'd know I didn't mean something else, but you got it. ; ) I'm a little sleepy.. here...  [Read More]

A simple request, not a demand, mind you. ;) Can we have (sometime in the near future) a Basic linux port? I would really love to use the TAB Bots, and siege fixes (forced team switching, fixed selective voting, exploit fixes) on a dedicated server...  [Read More]

I agree that debates should be had in the Senate Chambers, it's a very good place to have them. No, flaming people isn't a good idea, and flaming moderators is an especially bad idea (we have feelings too!). No, moderators should not abuse their po...  [Read More]

I was in Best Buy the other day and noticed a new game on the shelf called "Political Machine" (the box art reminded me of the game "North vs. South"). It shows a cartoon G.W. Bush sneering at a cartoon pic of John Kerry sneering...  [Read More]

140 hours of gameplay? Whoa! I mean, none of Raven's games to date have been over 30 hours have they? JA was like 15 hours and Elite Force was a mere 6 or 8 hours. I remember back when I had my Sega Genesis, the first RPG released for that system w...  [Read More]

Hmm, well that alone doesn't prove it's console only. Is Gamesradar a console only site? Because typically console only sources will refer to games only on their console platforms, not about parallel PC ports. Example: Gamepro typically refer to J...  [Read More]

So far most of the stuff seems to be backed up, but I haven't done an exhaustive investigation into the film, so there could still be some spin and generalizations in there. This is Michael Moore after all, and he's got an obvious agenda (no document...  [Read More]

I think the key word to keep in mind here is "cinematic." Nobody cares about "cinematic" stuff when they're trying to win a contest. Rather "cinematic" works fine for two guys who are dueling who want to feel like they'...  [Read More]

Sure, we'd all love a game with the depth and atmosphere of KOTOR, the size and scope of SWG, the action and sword play of the JK series, the ship combat of XWA and the graphics of Doom3, UT2k4, etc. But who's going to make such a monster? It would...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Khier Serakk Prime hit the nail on the head for me. Having played KOTOR a couple times through, it was frigging difficult to accept the characters and story in JA. The next JK game needs to have depth, my dream would be of a SW...  [Read More]

Yeah but it's a GOOD kind of easy. I honestly only played through JK2 SP once, but I went back and replayed various sections (with or without cheats) because they were so cool. Likewise with JA, I beat it on lightside, then went back and played a l...  [Read More]

Then again, this could be a case of the films contradicting the novelisations/comics. In which case the films take precedence... Since the "poop" idea is really only supported in the non-film official materials (though it still seems a bit...  [Read More]
