| JA SP Level: Anyone interested? | |
|
Virtue - Jedi Council  |
Me being me, was having a few silly thoughts this afternoon and came up with an idea to make a Single Player Level based around the Academy. Got great ideas for the level, although I havn't thought up a story line for it yet. But basically, I'mma make it so that you play a New Student to the Academy training with a JAT when something terrible happens, blah, blah, blah. I'm gonna be making loads of new skins for it, including the player skin (Let's face it, playing as Kyle in this scenario would be NO FUN!). This way, as you make your way through the Academy, you will meet and interact with several existing Academy members, like DJ Sith or Luke Skywalker. Even good old Jakey boy. Each member will hopefully be individually voiced. I'mma try and implement some helpful tips reguarding MP Playing and such, but the level will really just be for fun. What do you guys think? Good Idea? If so, tell me - What would you like to see in the level? What kind of situations shall we put the player through? And also, any good ideas for a storyline would be great.  Let me know what you think. - Virty.  _______________ Academy Architect |

Well I tried. You and your master are training and suddenly siths and stormtroopers attacks. You and your master fights but you get knocked down and the boss comes and kill your master. When you wake up you are in a some kind of cell and have to escape. You escape and have to free other students. When that is done you see a huge fight between a Council member and some sith knights (like Jerec and yun and those.) You run to help him, and when the sith is dead you and the council member runs to help other students. You meet a teacher that is badly wounded. He tells you that you gotta send a some kind of emergency call. So you run to the commlink there are some sith you have to fight. And when you do that you hear an explosion. You run to see what happened and there is a huge fight with teachers, knights and students against alot off siths and stormtroopers. When that battle is done the boss comes. He kills one by one until the rebel forces arrives and he flees. You run after him and you fight and he is just about to kill you when Dj Sith arrives. You fight together and the boss dies. And there is a huge party. |

Story... hm... The hero comes to the Jedi Academy and is generally told everything about it. Like we could use the level for propaganda among the community  They are just shown around, maybe participate in a class, something like that.Versions a) The JA suddenly is invaded and stormtrooper + heavy weapons are landed with shuttles and transporters. Students are lead to catacombes by their teachers and uh... somehow the hero is splitted by his groupo and on his own. Poor him has to fight his way through enemy lines to reach the secret entrance to the catacombes. On his way, he meets several teacher and knight groups who regroup and defend against the invading troops. Lot's of explosives etc please. Finally the hero reaches the catacombes but hast to see that lots of the students were slain, many others disappeared. A remaining teacher tells him that they were attacked by a group of sith warriors and that he sent the students deeper into the caves to flee for them. Togteher you two fight your way through the sith, until the teacher is wounded bad and cannot follow any more. Last not least, the hero joins into a fight between some students and the boss. One by one the students are taken out and the hero is the last man standing. Dramatical fight. The hero is pushed down and somehow gets into a bad situation, like obi at the end of EP1. In the last moment, DJ Sith and Massadoobie, two old and grey jedi masters (aka yoda) come and kill the boss. The hero is made jedi knight, big party, end of story. Version b) Would be that the hero is sent on a mission with some other students and knights. They should find out what has happened to a rebel base nearby. Once they reach it, everything is dark and creepy. No enemys... add some silent whispers and scratches, generally that people start to get scared. Add nice scripts like suddenly a student is sucked into a ventilation system or something ^^ Well, let your creativity play. At the end it turns out that aliens (you know, those small spiders) landed at the base and atatcked the rebels. Last not least, the hero meets a powerfull sith lord who turns out to control the spider-aliens. Make it a big fight, with various stages. Like first, he leaves you alone with some of the aliens. Then he attacks with force and you have to dodge his attacks. Last not least the two fight a nice saber fight. I prefer version a though  _______________ Aeth S'kray *June 2002 +September 2003 |

AKPiggott, maker of some of the best JK1 levels ever released, tried his hand at making a JK2 level. It reached beta stage a couple of months ago, but about that time he ran up against an infuriating problem. It seems there's a limit on the number (or, more accurately, quantity in MB) of voices you can put in a level. The game crashes if you exceed the limit. Which really screws up the potential for much dialogue. AFAIK he still hasn't found a way around it, other than lowering the quality of the voices to the point where they are of a noticably low quality. He's now fed up with the whole project, a pity since it was pretty much finished. JK2 SP levels also suffer from all sorts of performance issues. Which might explain the lack of decent JK2 SP levels. You have been warned. But hey, if you can get this idea to go well, I'd like to be a Lando skin who charges woohooing into battle and is among the first to be cut down, reflecting my immense skill . _______________ Q: What do you call a man with bread and butter pudding on his head?

Jake: When I said "Play our Hero" I merely meant the Voice. One of my ideas was to have no existing members embody the Player. And since I don't want this to be "Virtue Wars", I decided against providing the Voice for the Player myself. So getting one of the other Academy Members to do it seemed like a good idea. As for players interacting with themselvs. I think many members of the Academy would think this is a cool idea. As they go through the level, they are wondering where their cameo appearances are, how they look, and how much they rock. LoL I still need ideas for a good story line though. - Virty. _______________ Academy Architect |

Ok, here's a little idea. This Academy is currently training Dark and Light Jedi's. The Padawan would first walk around abit and ask directions, then he would be sent to Huxley (since he is/was the Lead Trainer), he welcomes you, and gives you some vague warning about keeping out of trouble [be creative]. You are sent to your first lesson. While you're walking to that, you pass through a corridor where you see a group of people talking with eachother you try and ask them something, but they rudely tell you to go away. During your training suddenly holes are blown in the ceiling, and stormtroopers & reborns land (like in Yavin level). Your teacher says something like 'I knew we couldn't trust them', and accompanies you for a while, but get's dramatically killed somewhere [door get's stuck, teacher is trapped, zillions of angry stormtroopers, he fights alot of them off, but one bullet in the back kills him]. You fight your way through the level (visiting the canteen, JAC office, JAT class briefing (you know those military thing with a board and chairs where the lead trainer informs the JATs of something)). Since you are just a Padawan, you are captured at one point and you are brought through a secret passage to a dark (red lights), big hall, where you meet the big boss, [insert name of dark JA member here]. ------------------ That should help, I'll think of a way to rescue him later This comment was edited by Halendor on Jun 30 2003 12:23pm. |

I don't think the hero should be an existing academy member, no no no. You should be called padawan or something, so no names are actually mentioned. So like when people talk to you it would be "hello young padawan, hello fellow Jedi, Hello friend" stuff like that. One problem there might be, is the people that are in it, what about when they play the game ? They'll be interacting with themselves _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

For those of you who are saying "Can I be in it? Just for a second?" - What's the point in that? I'm not spending weeks making skins so that they can just appear in it for a SECOND. Hehe. If you are in, you are IN. And I DO MEAN IN. I'm going to give people a chance to have a guaranteed appearance in the level, and that is thus - If you can make your own skin and send it to me, you are guaranteed to appear. If you can't skin, then don't panic! I'll make it for you. I'll be posting up a cast list here soon of all members making an appearance. And I'm going to need one special person to play the part of our Hero. (The Player).- Virtmeister. _______________ Academy Architect |
