I admit Twig and his clan own lol. They r the true ffaers I think in 1.01
And now that I see what you said about RavenSoft. It makes alot of sense.

But when u went on to say about v1.00 changing their ways and stuff...





Unfortunately it does. There is so many servers in 1.01 FFA now, that dont do crap except talk and duel. And abide by the no laming rule, that it would be impossible to not change and not stereotype it. Unless you want to spend time by yourself in a server your paying for and not get one person to come in and actually play FFA. and if they did come in, You'd probobly be flamed by the person saying. "YOU LAMED ME!! OMG!"
See so many people in 1.01 that play FFA alot, now have been playing the way alot of ppl play in 1.01 FFA. that now its pretty much screwed. A 1.00 player couldnt come in there and start playing the way they want to play, and have fun at the same time. Unless you think getting kicked multiple times is fun lol.
And not to get on all the TFFA teams backs but most of all of the base servers are of TFFA teams. And all they do is TFFA. o_o So then 1.00 players would have to change.

Really dudes, Everything in 1.01 FFA is nothing but almost dead. Probobly the ones keeping it alive would be like Twig and his clan. and maybe some others that do the same as him. But in all my time playing in 1.01 I havent found a clan [except Twigs] that would just actually play FFA.

Love the conversacion. xD

I'm not even going to quote the rest of that crap, because you're clearly missing something, and that something is "common sense".

Now, I'm going to emphasise here, because otherwise you just won't listen.

If all the FFA'ers from v1.00 moved to v1.01, then you would still be able to play the game the same way you always have. It is an active choice. You can move to v1.01 and choose to play true FFA.

You will never be forced to change the way you play. Never.

And don't pull that stereotyping line. That's just complete crap, and you know it.

Yes. Yes they could.

Know how?

They simply go to a "True FFA" server, rather than a "Duel FFA" server.

You're complaining about the lack of True FFA servers in v1.01, but you fail to realise that if all you v1.00'ers would move across, then there would be more True FFA servers in v1.01.

So, don't start blaming v1.01 players for a problem which is only created because of the v1.00 players being stubborn and short-sighted.


Y'know, by staying on v1.00, you're actually damaging the community. Why is that? Here's the timeline.

• True FFA'er picks up a copy of Jedi Academy at the store, and installs it.
• The game is pre-patched to v1.01 (as all copies released after October 2003 are).
• They see nothing but Duel FFA, because they can't see the True FFA community on v1.00, and even if they could, they wouldn't be able to get to it.

So, what do they do?

That's right. They throw the game aside and play something else.

Think about it. You're actually excluding True FFA players from being able to find a decent True FFA.

For people who want a BIGGER True FFA community, you and your v1.00 buddies are sure doing a pretty good job of ensuring that it doesn't grow.


Seriously, think about it. That's one of the reasons I don't play any more - because I can't get to v1.00 thanks to pre-patching, making it impossible to get a decent game of FFA because you lot are all foolishly refusing to upgrade.

If everyone would just patch (and there isn't a single valid reason not to), then as well as a bigger overall community, we'd actually have a True FFA community which was openly accessible for everyone.

Well, that sure was something Kouen, what I don't know, I'll tell you when I find out

But, there is that possibility, but anyone could just get on this site, get some donations, and start a True FFA server with all the money they got. Or you could start a server and invite your friends, which is what I do because its a better chance of fun with them....

People evolve with the things that are given to them. They upgrade how they play. Not everybody that plays Jedi Academy is a mindless, FFA-addicted blabbermouth like yourself.

The thing is, if you don't like the way certain people play on a server, then stay off of the server. It's so simple. Also, I'd like you to reconsider your message about JA+. Slider took a game and added on so much from what was missing. Kouen is right-- Raven didn't listen to the community and added nothing to benefit from (save for two new lightsaber styles that all the noobcakes would spam to no end).

Hahahaha. You're funny.

Not.

Duel mode is an absolute waste of time. You don't do anything but remain in spectator mode, stuck watching two buffoons drawl out what should be a short duel into an unnecessarily large one. The great thing about JA+, is the fact that there can be multiple duels going around at once. I'm not sure what Raven was smoking when they conceived the idea of 'one duel at a time' for FFA mode, but Slider sure fixed it.

We're not pussies for embracing a rule that you spill your guts out over. In fact, I'd say you're acting less mature than we are with your whining about how laming shouldn't be a rule. It's a widely regarded and embraced form of practice now, so just suck it up and deal with it.

Actually, we're better than they are because we follow the rules as they're set out. It's really a nuisance when some idiot name "Padawan" screaming "ALALALALALALALALA" Force speeds through the map, sabering anyone in his path.

Spectator is lame. I'm sure I've already established that.

I'm done now.
