Chewie Bakker Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Originally posted by JEDI OUTCAST i think we can have swoops in multiplayer. I'm pretty sure in one of the interviews mentioned a 'Siege mode' for Multiplayer (in response to a question about vehicles in multiplayer). This sounds like there's an option to have vehicles in a multiplayer game (I'm imagining like Battlefield 1942). Then again, it was close to 5am when I read this, and I can't even remember the site I read it from, so it could've been my sleep-depraived mind playing tricks on me.

Obi-Wan X Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 What exactly IS Siege mode? Isn't it an attack on an enemy base? Im pretty much thinking of it being like UT's mode. But vehicles would be nice as well. I think a new JA site will be up soon, because JA is discluded from the list of games on that "flash game chooser" thingar on the lucasarts page.

I think you're right in thinking that Siege mode is like Assault in Unreal Tournament. It'll either be like that or it'll be like Battlefield 1942. I don't know. The Force will be with you, always.

Tyler_Durden Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 this is a little off topic but if you already have bf: 1942 there is a total conversion mod for it called galactic conquest. it is a star wars based fps but like bf: 1942 you play as a grunt rebel or imp against each other. They have the battle of hoth map, which includes at-ats, at-sts, snowspeeders, a millenium falcon, gun turrets, etc. all of which let you drive them. They also have different classes such as sniper and medic as well. No jedis yet but it's still cool. When last i checked they were working on the battle of endor for their next release. Check out the site: http://www.galactic-conquest.net Should be a cool way to pass the time until JA comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my uncle sent me that link as well as a "looks good (if you've got Battlefield 1942)" (read as: Go buy Battlefield 1942 so we can play this) message. I would buy it if I had any income at the moment. Still, Jedi Academy's looking to be a must buy. The Force will be with you, always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDKnite188 Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Wow. The swoop looks incredibly awesome. Its cool how the guy is trying to extend his blaster to take out the jedi on the bike. Also, the double saber move featured looks pretty nice. Did you see the shadows, though? WOW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Do you think they'll be able to spawn a la npc spawn cheat in sp??? I hope so, so I can make my own JA maps like in JO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pnut_Man Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I see you guys are in dilemmia over these questions: Can we spawn npcs with a npc spawn like command during MP? Can we play Single Player Levels in Multiplayer? With CERTAIN CONNECTIONS I can answer these questions with 100% confidence: The admin of the multiplayer game, regardless if cheats are on or not, can use npc spawn to load in any single player Npc into MP. I've seen screenshots of Rancors, wampas, jawas, cultists; every npc from SP fighting in MP. The screenshot with the two swoop bike racers is indeed single player. However, that level may been loaded up during multiplayer, but only through console as of now. I hope that helped quell some of the confusion and hopefully I didn't break any laws by revealing that information.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinny Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 yeah, u could add any singleplayer character in mp by adding a bot, but their ai was horrible, nothing like they were in singleplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi-Wan X Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Since they are striving like never before to make multiplayer more like singleplayer, then maybe we'll see some upgraded bots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txa1265 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Just read the PC Game Zone UK 'review' (I have a hard time with that since it was obviously done pre-gold), and they say the swoop bike level is 'awful' (they call it the speeder bike level) and call the handling 'woeful' ... say it 'could have been fun'. It was one of the few negatives they had. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txa1265 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Originally posted by JediCrow Hmm..maybe I played a different pre-gold, but I thought the swoop bike level was awesome. Can't wait to play it in the "real" game. I'm not sure if you are an 'official' beta tester or one of the many 'unofficial' testers I typically rip into ... but this time I won't ... I'm actually glad to hear, but not necessarily surprised. Why? - Many here hated driving the AT-ST. I liked it. - Many reviews liked the tanks in MoHAA ... I really hated them. I just think that vehicles are a very personal thing for FPS players - I suppose it depends on whether you also play air combat games as well ... or something.

JediCrow Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Some times people just need to lighten up. I didn't give anything away, post about where to get anything, or otherwise try to spoil anyone else's experience. I just gave an opinion. I just happen to have a different perspective on this game than some other people on here. When the game comes out, we'll all be spouting our opinions on this and that, and complaining about this drain whore or that kick spammer. So for now we should just chill and if someone says they like something or don't, realize that they are probably just trying to help, unless it's obvious that they are just here to spoil it for everyone, which I'm not.

JediCrow Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Besides, what's the difference between my opinion and that review that was quoted here? For all you know I am a legitimate game reviewer and have a sanctioned preview version of the game. Assuming I'm a pirate just because I have the game and you don't doesn't help anybody.

Originally posted by JediCrow Some times people just need to lighten up. Hey now - I didn't rip anyone, or go off or anything. In fact, I stated that I have been coming down hard on the whole piracy thing - which I know I have gotten a rep for doing, as I have no tolerance for it. I prefaced by saying that I wasn't going to say anything, and that in fact I appreciated his comments in this case. Sorry if there was any confusion from the way I said things. Move along, move along. Mike [edit: just saw your last post] Originally posted by JediCrow Besides, what's the difference between my opinion and that review that was quoted here?

Exactly - I was saying that I neither knew nor cared how you obtained your copy, you were merely refuting an opinion in a review. And, as I said, I appreciated your opinion.

JediCrow Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Sorry, I wasn't telling you specifically to lighten up. Guess like it sounded that way. And whether I'm a pirate or a legit game journalist, I'm buying this game no matter what when it comes out, so you could call me a fan either way.
