Length of Single player

Hi, i will probably be buying this game in the near futre, as i greatly enjoy the demo, but i am wondering how long the Single Player campaign is.
I will likely play multi-player as well, but with only a 56k modem single player with action games is more important than multiplayer.

So i'm wondering how long it will likely take me to go through the campaign, and what, if any other modes of single player are there. (skill level changes the length of time i was beating the demo on Master Jedi, which i belive is the hardest difficulty, on the seconed day of having the demo. It would have taken me a lot longer, but a freind of mine told me that the two enemy's with light sabers (are they Sith's?) can be beaten easily if you get them to follow you back to the room with the big pit cuz they try to jump across and often miss)

Thanks in advance for any help,
Quagmire

well, the bots can team up on you, if you set team ffa, i think.

And the bots are like in quake 3, becausemthe game is a modified Quake 3, like RTCW :)

How do you make the bots team up on you? Is there like a game setting or something or is it something you just do while you're playing? I've fought against the bots and they team up on me sometimes until one of them accidentally hits the other, then they go back to killing each other.

and sometimes, you can make it so the bots team up agaisnt you... its great (but playing against them empowerd is... one sided, lets say)

This is all good news. I'm always wary about buying games that i will be done in a week, because then i don't feel like i got my money's worth.
Something i don't like about both Return to Castle Wolfenstien and Medal of Honor(both good games) is that once you finish the campaign, there isn't really anything to do in single player besides go through it again, which doesn't interest me a whole lot. I'm glad to know that they have bots that you can fight offline. (i'm guessing it is kinda like Quake 3 where you pick your level and the number of bots and just fight it out?)

yeah. should really satisfy you.
I found it more challenging when you try to make the utmost best of every situation.
I mean trying to get almost flawlessly through.
or limiting yourself to sabre and force only, things like that kept me playing it more than two months ;)

but then, in multiplayer on the web, I sucked in the beginning, either.

the game should take you a month or so, if you play every day, or at least once in two days. It's really cool, though I like multiplayer better. Good luck with finishing it.

The length of the game is great, I've played the demo, and let me tell you, the levels are a lot longer than that. Maybe 4 times as much or more...

It's worth it man ;)

The single player will last long enough to satisfy you. The Reborn, Shadowtroopers, and Bosses(Tavion, Desann), have different difficulty levels. I think your friend was talking about the two Reborns in Bespin who sometimes jump into the exhaust shafts...or get force pushed down there :)

When you're done SP, you can play Multiplayer with bots. JK2 bots are actually pretty good, no getting stuck in walls, fight much like real people do, and many other things. You should definately drop by the Academy servers.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
