I don't know if there will be another JA game made but I hope so. JK3 is ok but there are so many places that they could take this game. For one, I'm tired of seeing them set around this timeline. Either make it way in the future or way in the past. And give us some enemies that arent so easy to beat. Even a story set in the NJO timeline. They Yuuzhan Vong were very powerful, that would be a great fight.
As far as game play goes. It should have more options. Things should be more manual in the way of blocking and counters. Lets see different fighting styles *example: Traditional single. Better dual and staff movement, reversed grip, dual reversed grip, fencing style. Imagine the game play with those options! Not only would you have to get good at a style, you'd have to learn to defend against many styles. Plus each person plays that style differently. Add Manual blocks and counters and its ALL skill. Even make Blocking blaster shots more of a manual task. more controled force powers.

Any who...what do ya think?

The reason they stay in this time line is b/c its another way to tell the stories of Star Wars. These games a pretty much based around kyle katarn and there REALLY never going to make a movie about him so they probably decided to base these games for that purpose.

too bad no such product is in the works, I would hope that the next in the Jedi Knight series would be more like a Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, with finishing moves and better looking fighter models and lots more moves/combinations, better and more involved defenses not just standing there but actually have to move/attack to make parries, and a quicker ripost move after a successful parry would add some realism.

just multiplayer too, no SP would be needed beyond the ability to spawn enemy for practicing, or a tournament type set up, no story line needed.

I'd love to see a d3 based JK4. NJO would be tip top. Lots of interesting side stories to play along with. But I doubt it'd happen any time soon. LEC seems VERY focussed on prequel games. Block button is cool too. It doesn't need to be anything fancy, just 1 step above auto block. Hold down the button to block incoming shots.

Gah now I'm all excited too. Thanks alot, guys.:P

I think it will be fine if they don't phase him out. But I'd like to see a story change. A lot of people who play this game AND read the YJK and NJO series will probably agree that I'd like to be able to fight along side Corran Horn, Jacen, Jaina, and Anakin Solo. Stare at Mara's sexy self:D I think the NJO stroy would make for a AWSOME story/timeline in the next game. Luke is still alive as well as Kyle. And it would be much harder because force powers don't effect Yuuzahn Vong. They would have to make it to where you could use your surroundings to aid you, just like they do in the books.

Storyline: NJO v The Vong
Create you Character: Jedi or Sith.
Lots of Species to select from all in jedi Outfits.
Male or Female.
Varying Size height/Width the bigger you r atre the more powerfull but you are slower
Jedi/Sith powers.
Choose whether you fight right or left handed.

Storylines Include meeting with and fighting along side all the Main Characters Solos, Skywlakers, Durron, Horns etc. As well as the Vong, Peace Brigade the Imperials.

You can use Light or Dark powers not both and if you choose Dark, characters treat you differently. A point where you visit Coruscant under Vong Rule.

Storylines that interact with those in the books.

Some sort of blocking scheme so you can fight defensively.

I should have started this post Dear Santa :)


The last of the sith have been killed for over 10 years, there are no more sith, ever, you'd be a dark jedi.

And besides, the second you couldn't play Kyle the story was messed up, the JediKnight series are about him.

Well I don't mind the story line being at the asme timeline I mean it makes perfect sense.. it is the jedi knight series and there are not any other games of the same timeline.

i dont think selecting jedi/sith is a good idea :) i think it would be more interesting to start as a scoundrel or somethin :)

i was thinkin about these saber fights...
i think they should make something that requires more skill. like if you are unskilled you will really fail. best example for skill-system like this is rally games (colin mcrae for example).

That's exactly why I hate the blocking lol. One hit kill dueling just isn't... fun. I prefer just twitch pressing, where like one a blow is about to hit you, an icon flashes on screen, and then you have to press the block button before it disappears or your opponent scores a hit; plus if you time it right, you can score a parry, counterattack, etc.
