We want to shake things up a little bit here at thejediacademy.net, and one of the ways we want to achieve this is by broadening our horizons a little bit.
We have two thriving guilds in Star Wars: The Old Republic, but we're fully aware that MMO games aren't for everyone. We're also aware that the Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy community is not what it once was. So, in order to broaden our horizons, we want to find out what everyone is playing these days, as we want to accommodate you guys as best we can and give you what you need to enjoy our fantastic community. Star Wars gaming is obviously our first priority, but there's absolutely no reason why we can't, for example, run events, tournaments, classes or even servers for games that you guys enjoy. So, let's hear it! What are you guys playing? What games would you like to see us support? Reply to this thread and let us know, as well as any other suggestions or ideas you might have. Thanks guys! |

I think large JKA based events should be attractive enough for tor guildies to try the game out at least - as long as the jka crowd from swtor participates in them and actively spreads the word about them.

I'm going to throw this out there: Mass Effect 3.
Not a revolutionary multiplayer by any means, but it's fun with a good group and if there are others around here that play it, it would be blast to get some games in. Side note on JKJA: It's not much, but almost every application to the TOR website so far has put either unsure when asked if they would play JKJA with us. With a small group of others saying yes. I've gotten the impression that if we did have more happening on that front I could probably plug it to the guild and bring a few new faces to our servers at least. I do agree that for JKJA to take off again (and I'm sure it can, despite the decline in numbers) we'll need some pretty dedicated members to set up regular classes that encompass a range of game styles etc. I think one danger here as well is spreading ourselves too thin. Don't want to take on too many projects at once without the numbers to support them. Only so many active ranked members to set things up and keep things running smoothly etc. _______________ To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield | Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken | Rhaiko D'kana - SWTOR EU Guild Co-Founder | Is it what the teacher, teaches?

Ehm. I majorly agree with Hugo on everything what he's saying except the part where somebodies are feeling 'teacher - student' like.
Also I'll never change my views on It is starwars game; but I'm still fine with if somebody is seeing it as some random arcade game with Q3 engine and I actually hope that this community takes that kind of approach to gain more members. and yes we have done it, we don't restrict our members way of playing by anything, anymore. but yeah, I want JKA ladder, the same kind of system what Virtue did on MB2!

There are not as many people playing JKA as there were in 2004 - that's just a fact. I want to accommodate the people who still play JKA - not just people who form a line to have 1v1 duels on an FFA map, but TFFA and CTF also. Unfortunately, due partly to what I'm sure most people would agree was a very closed-minded approach to the game by the JA in the past, what few members we have that were heavily involved in CTF, TFFA etc have moved onto other things or are no longer present in the community.
But I'm trying to make things happen, and the first part of this process is asking everyone what they want out of the JA - and if that's still JKA, then that's what we're going to work on. But I'm not against the idea of giving people what they need to play whatever game is currently popular - but again, games rooted in Star Wars are our focus. That's always been the core of the JA, and probably always will be. As for the new website - Virtue was working on it, and there's a semi-functioning form of it that just needs a few features added before it's ready to be used. Unfortunately, Virtue's real life commitments (work, etc) have prohibited him for the time being from being able to complete it. But, once it's done, we'll use it. In the meantime, DJ is going to make a few changes to the current website to make it more friendly to our adoption of SWTOR etc. This comment was edited by planK on Mar 18 2012 06:13pm. |
