EXCLUSIVE JK3 Info From Loaf -Loaf - Apr 19 04:00pm

Ok, I have more info here (not from any site) on JK3: academy:

¬ Players won't be able to start with two lightsabers, it is a upgrade through progression as is the dual blade.
¬ The game is sceduled for a Christmas release :(.
¬ An RPG aspect will enter such as the ability to pick up items off of tables. This was very hard for Raven to do in JKII, and it took them three days to figure out how to have Kyle pick up a crystal off Mon Mothmas desk, now it can be done in hours.
¬ JKII's MP only force powers such as Absorb and drain will now be incorporated into SP for the mix and match force powers.
¬ The ability to choose your destiny. Your outcome will determine on which side of the force you chose.
¬ The Create-a-Jedi consists of many parts:
Species, Skin Color, Head, Torso, Legs, Saber Color and Saber Hilt.
¬ Dark Jedi's now has a random style of saber stance. For example, some might have a single saber, some two and other a deadly double.
¬ Star Wars Creatures include: Jawas, Tusken Raiders, Rancors and other annoying critters.
¬ Some rice revealing outfits for the female tw'ilek :)
¬ Sabers can be used more now for destroying and melting items to help get to those awkard places.
¬ New acrobatic moves.
¬ Force Jump can be doubled up for further leaps.
¬ Raven chose not to use Kyle Katarn anymore as his story wasn't very easy to develop on, especially as he retires from mercenery work after JK2.
¬ "Bigger Explosions and Less Stupid Puzzles!"

Well I hope my little scoop there keeps you going that little bit further..

yeah its being released a few days after autumn, since winter doesn't start untill december 21.

Also remember that the Christmas shopping season starts the day after Christmas. So that would be a Christmas release.

i just found this out also, there are the three types of force powers: neutral, dark and light. There are no such things as "light gripping" etc, and the force powers you choose (these are choiced upgrades) lean you towards the dark side or the jedi side.

Yeah, the puzzle thing can go both ways. I agree, some of them were just plain stupid, but if you take away too many, then you have a game like C&C: renegade.

Bigger explosions: Excellent! :D

"Less stupid puzzles": Maybe good, maybe bad. Does that mean that there will be more _good_ puzzles, or that the SP game will just be a series of mindless shoot-'em-ups? :eek:
