This is an absolutely fantastic mod for JKA, its basically like counterstrike. Its round based, so if you die you're out till next round, and there are different classes including bounty hunters, soldiers, jedi, droidekas!, super battle droids etc.

Also the saber system is totally revamped amking duels skill base, less random and more movie like. They're all about blocking etc rather than swinging and hope your swing glitches through their defenses.

Find this mod at http://www.moviebattles.com

Download it now!!

Except that after two days everyone would just figure that out, and only lightning your back.

I was talking about realism, and being shot in the back with Lightning and still absorbing it isn't very realistic IMO.

Yeah, it's a great mod. I got bored of it (been playing from B16-17) because the B17 maps aren't as fun as the B16 ones :(.

Force Absorb isn't fake, Yoda uses it in Episode II and III against Count Dooku and the Emperor's Force Lightning.


That isn't force absorb, I would call it force reflect. Either way he has to concentrate on doing it.

Force Reflect is being considered but it is just one of those things that so far, has seemed good in a movie, but won't really translate well into the game.


Well, alright, against Palpatine's Force Lightning he might have used a superb version of Force Push.

But against Count Dooku's Force Lightning in Episode II he definitly used Force Absorb against Dooku's second Force Lightning attack, since you saw all the Lightning being "absorbed" in Yoda's hand.

just go to downloads screen in the site :)
and about absorb... i think its fake...
i cant see any sign of it in ep3. yoda blocked lightning with his own force power (superb version of force push/telekinesis).

simply blocking all the time doesnt make a game good...


If you download the latest version, there are some new servers, that are guns only for people learning.

Also it is not simply blocking that makes the saber system different. It is based off the OJP saber system where 1 body hit = death. (for example, again not the only difference)

But at the least, there is a block.

Also the force powers just make more sense.

Drain, rage, absorb, protect? These are just fake powers that are pretty dumb.

They have been replaced with powers that actual make sense, like force block and saber deflect.

Powers like, mind trick and speed make more sense.



But of course, I am biased

I didn't write any of this code though, and I joined this mod team because I believe everthing I typed.

Try the mod, yourself, the community is active, the forums are always busy, and the number of servers is growing.

I agree the grenades are a little overly powerful... I have to spend the rest of the round sitting and healing if I don't want to waste all my Force points on Push :(

downloaded mb2 b17 last night...
hmmm things a bit changed... to the good side :)
still there are some things which can be considered imbalanced (quite real tho) .
that thing is all kinds of grenades...
half of the team bombed coz of one silly grenade... most of times atleast one person dies coz of that little thing. its like 100% guaranteed kill...ofcourse thats to fasten the process coz the real fun starts when there are 2 vs 3 or something like that left...
