I really hope another Jedi Knight Game will be made with better graphics then the quake3 engine.

I really enjoy playing MP in Jedi academy and before that Jedi outcast. I can't imagine my gaming world without Jedi Academy.

But the game is starting to get old. I think it's time to talk about a sequel. People move on to other games and if it wasn't for the great mappers/modders etc. in the JA community. A lot more people would have left as well.

I hear a lot of people complain that the graphics are outdated. (I don't really mind too much but compared to the newer games Jedi Academy's graphics are pretty outdated) I would love to walk around, fight and have fun in an even more realistic star wars world with bigger maps and more things to do. (But of course not so much that my pc can't handle it anymore)

1 thing I really liked in Jedi Academy is that it's a lot more Female friendly then Jedi Outcast (where you could only pick from Jan and Tavion out of 50 characters) I also liked the fact that you can customize a lot more and that you can ride in vehicles or on animals.

Few things I didn't like about Jedi academy was that names were no longer seen in Colours and the fact that you can slide over people’s heads which seemed really unrealistic. I really like the fighting style in Jedi Academy as long as the JA+ mod was added by Slider which allows you to use jk2 moves like, jk2 roll, standing on peoples heads without sliding off, using the pull kick move, coloured names, more options in profiles, new moves and emotes. This allows the game to have more variation.

What I really would love to see in a next JK game is some of the options I mentioned above but also that it's more focused on the excising movies instead of creating a whole new place on star wars (I know replicating places is really hard) But I would love to be able to walk through the ewok village for example.

I also think the JK series have more potential then just being FPS. As it is already a game with more then just action and FPS. There so many more things you can do in it. So it would be cool if the next version will also focus a bit on other game plays As well as the old trustworthy FPS. For example RPG (now I’m not a super big fan of this but some people would love it) or being able to create your own town on a planet. Like your own town (without using complicated programs like radiant) I believe SWG has these things but I never played it and I like the fact you can play old trustworthy FPS too much to play a complete RPG like SWG.

It would just be fun to create your own little space with your community or clan. Live there and fight each other like in an FPS or just chill at the bar with a nice beer. (Even in the movies they aren't always fighting)

So fun new game types would be RPG or Pod racing. The current JA servers have their server on FFA but aren’t actually playing it. (Don’t get me wrong I love to FFA and force fight and do all that) but in my opinion. The more variation the better!

So I'm speaking for most of the JA community. Were ready for the bigger and better! And I hope our wish will be granted. You will make the JA community and the star wars fans really happy.

I'd also like to know from others what features they would like to see in a future JK game.

Yeah, watching the new movie always gets people in the mood to play JK. Happened last time. If it gets passed on to another company, I hope they keep in mine that it's an fps not an rpg... regardless of what some people like to do on it heheh  :;):

Ye I think the JK series could never die. Star wars is a movie series that will stay with us forever probably :P and JK series in my opinion is one of the best star wars games except that it needs to be updated BIG TIME

We def need a new Jedi Knight game using the D3 engine.  It should also have Havok II physics, and the physics would be extremely important to a Jedi Knight game.  Consider force powers and lightsabers.  Instead of having JUST force pull and force push, how about complete telekinesis.  We should be able to bend spoons! hahaha!

In other words, with the D3 engine's graphics and advanced physics combined with Havok II realistic limb seperation a new JK game will be amazing!  So if I were to slice my lightsaber down the middle of a dark jedi (from top of the head to uh...you know where) that dark jedi should be split in two vertically, and not horizontally like it currently does in JKA and JKO II.

I want some more realism with the lightsaber combat (as odd as that sounds, realsim - lightsaber lol), and I want the physics to play an extremely large role in both lightsaber combat, and with the interaction in the game world.

Now I hope Raven develops the next JK game because they have done an amazing job so far, and I am confidant that they have the talent and skill necessary to create another ground breaking JK game.  Not to mention they are already familar with the D3 engine, which would make creating another JK game with that engine that much easier, and smoother.  I'm sure they have learned a few new tricks with the D3 engine because of Q4, and the more they work with an engine, the better they will be with it.  So hopefully, the next JK game will be an improvement over Q4, just like Q4 should be a huge improvement over D3.

yea a good physics engine combined with Jk would definately be cool,
force grip an enemy and toss him through a window, or into some boxes to see them all fly arround. muhahahah:cool:
