Raven soft Q&A

Howdy boys and girls,
I posted on an earlier thread my intentions of securing an interview with the developers of JK:Jedi Academy. I'm happy to report that my efforts may have finaly paid off. With the help of Kenn Hoekstra over at RavenSoft (Kenn is awesome),
I managed to track down Ronda Scott, Lucas arts Internet Community Relations Specialist.

Here's what Ronda had to say:
--------------------------------------------------
Hi Edward -

I'm fairly certain that there will not be a public beta testing for Jedi Academy.
However, we'll be putting together a Fan Site Kit shortly after E3 (mid-May) that
will cover basic FAQs and have a series of screen shots for sites to use. We'll
be setting up Q&As with the team at Raven after E3 as well.

We'd be happy to work with you on coverage and a Q&A. Thanks!

Ronda
--------------------------------------------------

Never let anyone tell you it doesn't pay to be persistent. :)

So with that said I have a question for all of you. If you could ask one question of the developers from Ravensoft about JK:JA what would it be?

Please post your responses here. I'll talk with DJ about picking some of the best and most frequently asked questions for the Q&A.

Your friendly neighborhood EX-Knight,

:arcuss:

The questions have been sent. With any luck the answers will be in my inbox by the end of the week.

Thank you guys for all of your suggestions.
I feel we ended up with some pretty good ones.
Apologies to anyone who's questions we didn't use.

I think we know the answer to that one, you will be able to choose your path and I don't think you'd be paying any more attention to the Academy if you turned dark, you know? heh

how will we be able to interface our singleplayer charecter with the multiplayer charecter? Such as if i creat a male human named Icco and beat the single player game with him ca i use him with the same settings in multiplayer?

If no how will charecters be chozen in JK3?

will we be able to add other charecters to first player?

Just when I was about to give up hope the Jedi Academy has been granted it's very own JK: JA Q&A.

Here's the email from Ronda Scott of LucasArts Entertainment.

Hello there -

If you'd like to send in a Q&A for the team now, we should be able
to get it back to you in a timely fashion. Check out www.galactichunter.com
for a recent Q&A and theforce.net for a new Q&A to be posted this week
to give you an idea of what's already been asked.

Thanks!
Ronda

Would you be able to interact with the Imperial Remnant, and if so, will you be able to see them as friends instead of enemies?

Could you tell us a bit more about the background of JK3? For example, the current situation in the Republic (or is it the Galactic Alliance now?), when the game is set in, and where. Things like that.

Arcuss = awesome

This question was alluded to earlier, but I wanted to know:

"Will it be possible to completely holster one's weapon, and therefore have 2 hands available to carry out independent force powers?"

I'm ready to grip a guy in each hand and bash them together... muhahahahahahahahaa.
