Durden0000 Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Seriously, the only reason we dont have a demo is because Lucasarts is $ hungry. The game is awesome so they should have nothing to hide - it would take Raven all of a day to release a demo now that the game is gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 I think it would take a lot more than a day to do a demo, even if they picked an SP and MP level from the finished game... They have to strip out the other content, then debug it, then test it thoroughly. I mean, how many demos have you seen released recently that required patches just to play them? I don't know why you think LEC is dollar-hungry either. I'm sure there will eventually be a demo, and if you are unsure about purchasing the game, then simply wait until a demo is released to try it out. You make it sound as if someone who is unsure of the game will simply buy the game anyway. If you are really not sure of the game, I can't recommend just buying it anyway. I'm almost sure there will be a demo...we just have to be a little patient...and wait for the Ravenites to recover from crunch mode in getting the full game finalised and out of the door. Welcome to the forums, BTW. Here... *hands over a chocolate Jedi medallion* There you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrobes Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 It probably would take a bit longer than that, but no doubt there will be one. Only, in a month from now after everyone has the game anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven were the ones who didn't want to make a demo. They said that they didn't want to but it was up to Lucas Arts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrobes Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Yeah, damn.. when's the expansion pack due! Sheesh! Or.. or.. Jedi Knight III: Jedi Master. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Nine Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Actually according to Lucasarts naming policy so far (DF,DF2:JK,JK2:JO) it would have to be called Jedi Outcast 2: Jedi Master ! Btw: Is it confirmed that there 'll be no demo, or is all above just speculation ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedimaster74 Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Originally posted by L3onheart Can you say "C&C Renegade"? Have you tried to play the Global Operations Demo Under XP. That thing needs about 50 patches before it will run right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cracken Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Man, Global Ops sucked under any operating system. Why? Cuz it was a BETA! Instead of releasing a decent demo, they released a f****** BETA! Good thing Raven didn't do that. Besides, the game's only 7 days away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazilla Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Even if the demo comes out after the game, I'm still gonna download it after I play the full version, just to make sure there isn't something different in the demo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valdarious Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Actualy making a demo for a quake engine is quite easy. You just have to take all but one .pk3 file out of the base directory. Add a cheasy end(Thank you for playing the demo) screen and you got a demo. Fix the cd crack to not work which Raven knows how to do then you have a demo.

Hoowl Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Do you really want the demo now? Personally, I don't. The full game is here in a week and i'd rather find out about the weapons/gameplay when I get it. In a way i think the demo would spoil some of the anticipation i have for the game rather than whet my appetite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrobes Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 I agree Hoowl. It's really too late for a demo now. Timing is wrong. Peoples' anxiety is at a fever pitch. Best leave that as it is.. hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anakin Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 The demo is going to released after the game, PC Gamer UK have it on next months May Edition, April 12th i think the mag comes out. And its exlusive to them, so some one and Lucas is pulling PCG strings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUS_Tomcat Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 I dont want a demo now... Cause I wanna earn my saber in single player, and if there was a demo (which WOULD include saber), I couldnt resist downloading it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicket the Ewok Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 I'm suspicious when developers don't bring out demos. Are they trying to hide something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you got JK2 yesterday already, why would you want a demo ? Or do you want to imply you were j/k (pun intended ) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedimaster74 Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 The developers want to give us a nice surprise once the game comes out. With a demo you will kind of know whats going on,but without one it makes it all better by having you find out for yourself what the game is all about.
