I just have a nice idea, for a long time. Instead of having a map like this, and sitting on the forums, we could make it more interesting :). For egsample, we do a big map, with different rooms: Force training room, saber training room, etique learning room, jac room, jak room, jat room, jas room (:D), shooting range. We would do these rooms, then combine them with teleports around the map. I think that would cut down fps. Imagine, everyone come with they're padawans, learn what they need, fight with their friends. It woyuld be really cool.There are problems:
1.JAK's have multiple Paddys
2.JAT's should have 5-8 Paddys, instead of classes.
3.Ping problems.
4.FPS problems

There would be a site, but everything that is really necessary, would be on the server/s.

We would start living on the servers, not just playing. I would be like a MMORPG. And we would spawn in a kind of dormitory room :D

LoL @ MoS

Leave it to MoS to mention prison rape.

But I agree with him. MMORPGs are not good. This game is.

Yeah, I know it's not possible, but guys, 32 peeps multipliedy by let's say 3 server, that's 96 people. A nic little Academy. It's just an idea, and I would do it, but I don't have even one server ;)

I've actually played in a 64 player server before, was re-inacting the battle of geonosis, jedi vs merc, damn exciting. These types of servers are EXTREMELY RARE, so if you see one pop up on your sevrer list, join, it is an amazing experience.

thats dope but the Jk2 engine only allows like 32 ppl per server per time or something so ya, if u did that i'd prolly need to be divided into divisions and server per division or somthing like that.

thats what i thought u guys had.....But i guess i was wrong all u would need is to have one for classes and another for fun and have different maps for each and not add anything dumb that would rack up the pings

It's and intersting idea for sue, but I don't think you could hold it in the jk2 engine. It just can't handle that many players on the server. Maybe n the future when the technology's up to it it can be done. :)

One other problem.
With the huge amount of people signed up to this Academy already, and the number of people that the Server will allow, on the scale that you are talking about...
No one will be able to learn anything, because ALOT of people will be attempting to talk at once, therefore, everyone will need to bring down their constoles and page up a few times every couple of seconds.

The Theory itself is a nice idea though.
If you want to put it into practise, I'll meet you in Star Wars Galaxies when it comes out. :D

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. 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#??"

Yeah this is a fantastic idea, and this would be the ideal layout of the academy. The thing is, its not only not possible, its not practical either. You have lag issues, time difference issues, stuff happening but only people around at that time able to know about it (unlike leaving messages on forums)Not to mention the fact that you wouldn't wanna be here all day....(some of us wish we could though :P)

Praps in a few hundred years when all games are virtual reality, or matrix training program style, this method of playing will be implemented.

Personally, I like the Academy now, it could use some adjusting, but it doesn't need major change.
