| Is Jedi Academy Really dying? (Must Read) | |
|
Sajid - The Undertitled  |
OK, lets sit down and discuss this. when i saw the post on the home page, it almost made me cry. I really want to believe that NO! JEDI ACADEMY IS STILL ALIVE! TONS OF PEOPLE STILL PLAY IT! But after thinking about it, I realized that its true. Every day more and more people are not playing Jedi Academy, and even The Jedi Academy is slowing down. I remember when I first got Jedi Academy in the mail, five years ago. For me, (as it was my first real video game) it was like nothing I ever imagined. I played Jedi Academy every day, and I had no problems. I thought it would be that way for ever, and then, maybe five months ago, I started noticing that all the servers were commonly empty and even the Official JA+ Beta Test Servers were commonly filled to the brim with bots, like they are as I type. I don't exactly know what it is that is making Jedi academy less and less popular. Maybe its because of all the new games coming out like Call Of Duty: Black Ops or Halo Reach that are sucking up all the attention from the gamers out there. In my mind, the games like those listed above are simply not challenging enough. Anyway, what do you think?   _______________ Brother to Quill You don't understand.

 No, do you? I was trying to say that just because it's 8 years old, doesn't neccisarilly mean its outdated. Tons of people play oh, I don't know, WoW. That is pretty old, is it not? EDIT: what happened to DQNCE COMMANDER? just wondering. _______________ Brother to Quill You don't understand. I'm not locked in here with you, YOUR LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!

Quote: I still don't know why people keep saying JKA is dead. Basejka TFFA is pretty inactive, but when was the last time you guys ever looked at the server list? I guarantee you there'll never be a time for the next long while where you have trouble finding people to play with.
you do make a good point. I admit my mistake in stating that JK is dying. If you include JA+, I bet right now there are at least 20 servers with 2+ people in them playing (no bots). Dead? Absolutely not. Dwindling? Obviously. _______________ Brother to Quill You don't understand. I'm not locked in here with you, YOUR LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!

By what do you mean "bad posting"? If your bad posting continues, I will have no option but to take severe action. Nice little arguement here but please learn to use the edit function instead of double and even triple posting.
On topic: You're comparing JK:JA a game that is now about 8 years old to Reach and Black Ops which are both less than a year old (around 6 months?). Of course people are going to play them but the difference is the style of gameplay, people who have been playing as long as they have nowadays often always come back after trying out the "new big flashy fps". The games were targeted at certain audiences of which differ a fair amount between JK:JA and the other two you listed. The JK series will indeed at some point go out completely, that or a new game gets released or a modification for a different game brings everyone back in again, who knows? One thing is for certain though, the JA will be around for a number of years to come with or without JKA. This comment was edited by Everon on Jan 21 2011 01:34pm. |

Quote: Ok let me attempt to converse with you again.
ok, I see where you are confused. What I'm trying to say is that, the attention from COD BO and Halo Reach are taking away fom JA. After that, by saying halo isn't challenging enough, I mean the fact that it doesn't take any real skill to play bolth SP and Multiplayer. Your post in this thread is about the multiplayer aspect of this said game Jedi Academy, and you note low activity due to games such as Halo Reach and Call of Duty Black ops etc.... to which i answered you cannot compare the difficulty of multiplayer games due to every game being different which puts your against tougher or easier opponents each time. You then proceeded to say you was talking about the campaign of said games, Now i'll give you the campaign of Halo Reach is pretty much a must for any halo fan but Black ops ? really i haven't even touched the SP of that game and i have no desire to, i play FPS games for the multiplayer aspect of them ( I know not everyone does ) My point is the campaign of any game will not stop you playing the multiplayer of another game. The only SP game that has eaten alot of my time was Dragon Age and Mass effect 1&2 most SP games can be finished in a day / 2 days now so i don't see your logic in saying that the campaign of Black ops and halo reach have had any impact on the activity of Jedi Academy. If you think im trolling think again. i just don't understand your reasoning for your answers to my posts. _______________ Brother to Quill You don't understand.

Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??" |
