Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy

Update: this review got popular so I made it a bit more detailed For some reason dismemberment is copy protected on the steam version and will not work via the in game console, also by default the game doesn't support all resolutions via the in game options. So to get around this we make a file called autoexec.cfg and put it in the gamedata/base folder. In the file write the following, (the autoexec file is read from bottom to top for some reason). seta r_mode -1 seta r_customaspect 1 seta r_customwidth 1920 seta r_customheight 1080 set g_sabermorerealistic 2 set helpusobi 1 Once that is done you should see it show up like this in the gamedata/base folder http://i.imgur.com/szG45Aj.png (notice how the Type for the autoexec shows up as CFG file and not a text file, this is also where you dump .pk3 files to get mods to run) This is my autoexec for reference, it has a few more tweaks

This game (after 17 years) still has the best lightsaber combat system aside one of the best story mode. Easy to learn but hard to master the multiplayer experience is still top class for every SW fan. The community cares about the game with new characters made every day from a range of football players to non canon as well as canon characters. I currently run the game with JA+ mod and been a part of a community almost 3 years with many pleasuring experience behind my time.  This game definitely is a must for every SW fan so go ahead and give it that few bucks. After you have the game installed join me on my dedicated server (where most of the community play) with /connect 135.125.145.49:29070 or /connect JoF.JK3.in

If you want BF II, but won't cave in to EA's lootboxes, get Jedi Academy with Moviebattles II mod, and you have a better game. Like 80+ characters from all three trilogies, KOTOR, SWTOR and Extended Universe is available to play. 14 classes split in two factions, and good customisation with a sort-of point buy system were nobody get an unfair advantage, mostly skills counts. A skilled stormtrooper with his extra lifes can take down jedis, and with my short few hour in MB II matches I can pride myself of killing a sith while running around as Jar Jar. Wait, what was I reviewing again? Oh, the Jedi Academy, without mods, by itself is a nice short campaign, which is one of the few games I've replayed at all. This guy have a good review of MB II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRatNEMQKbE&feature=youtu.be Installation Guide: http://moviebattles.wikia.com/wiki/Installation_%26_Troubleshoo

Watched my dad play this game when I was a mere youngling, so fair warning this is a nostalgia game for me. Nearly a decade later I purchased the game myself remembering how cool this game was back when I watched my dad play it. I mainly purchased it for the cheat codes so I could create my own STARWARS battles during the mid 2010's, and dabbled briefly in the Multiplayer even though I utterly sucked at it. This is where my first 142 hours of gameplay comes from. Almost a decade after that I decided that I wanted to relive the genuine story mode on Jedi Knight difficulty, and it was such a nostalgic trip down memory lane for me. Despite how corny the dialogue is, and how janky some of the combat feels at times, as a pre-disney era fan this remains an absolute gem for the games related to the franchise. I was surprised at how in-depth the lightsaber combat actually is for a game release

For me this may be the Best Star wars game ever made, you really get the feeling you are in star wars, even that this game takes place a few years after star wars VI. the Storyline and Side missions are really great, and it's feels like it's an open world you are in. The controls are simple and easy to learn. if you want to make special attacks (most used in MP) then your keyboard will get a bit advanced since there are alot of special attacks you can do with the right combination of keys. Multiplayer is really great too, for me Single players is the best and could maybe need COOP but that what's we have mods to do, Multiplayer never gets boring there are plenty of game modes to play. Like Team death match, Death Match, Duel 1vs1 2vs2 4vs4 and alot more of gamemodes, The best gamemode: may be the Storyline game mode which focus on example jedies and Rebels has to storm a base and tak

Only star wars games franchise where you spend 50+ hours alone just trying to write your name on the damn walls. Why? Because the incredible saber mechanics and singe markings allow you to do that. But if you do not want to buy the game, because of Rosh. That is very understandable. If....WHEN you buy this game it may not work in fullscreen or even start up properly on windows 10 or 8, so search JEDI ACADEMY CRASH FIX and steam forums will pop up, along with a file that you must copy and paste into your game data folder. Then it will work all the time.
