TO, that sounds like it's the first level or so.
If it is, look for an elevator in one of the rooms, and make sure you got the night vision goggles, or w/e they're called...I don't remember, it's been a while since I've played SP.
Tbh, I'm addicted to Outcast Multiplayer...I'm a member of a clan actually...if someone wants to meet up or something, just tell me.
Well, first tell me, did you download the update?
http://support.lucasarts.com/patches/jedioutcast2.htm You'll need 1.04 to connect to Academy mods, which most servers use.
I'm with clan JU actually, we use the server named ............................J. I'm Mourningstar.
We have a filter though...if you want to connect, you'll need a name other than padawan, which is the default 😛
I also go on Academy multiplayer, but i suck with a lightsaber lol and the servers are full of ppl who take it dead serious and must be on the game for like all their 'lives'. So siege is the best option for me because it is also similar to return to castle Wolfenstein multiplayer. Did anyone used to play on Mysteries of the sith and Dark Forces 2 multiplayer? Any idea if there are any servers still up and running and being used on them games, if so i might dig em out, install and relive the good ol' days

They look pretty dam bad now, very pixalated and blocky but you gotta expect that from an old game i suppose.Erm as for the gameplay, it's very, very much like Jedi Outcast i'd say. The saber duels aren't great though, just hacking and catching your opponent with lucky strikes (not the cigarettes lol 😮💨 ). I would recomend them to you, just to see the story of Kyle and how he got to where he was in JO. The cutscenes are live action (kinda like the movies) they're pretty good really, they look really tacky if you see screenshots of em on the internet though. You can also choose between the light and dark side and whichever you choose will change the cutscenes, i thought this was pretty cool. Anyway i suggest you pick a copy of either up off ebay, for next to nothing and see for yourself. You gotta have Dark Forces 2 in order toplay Mysteries of the sith though!

If you've played jedi academy internet play, then youve pretty much played outcast. It lacks dual sabers and saber staff though.If you've not played either then it's pretty hard to describe. You should wait for someone intelligent and articulate to answer your question instead of a bum like me lol. The connection is usually very good though, not much lagging and the FPS is usually not much different from singleplayer.
I prefer outcast actually. Keeping the saber a single style makes it less likely that newbies are you going to hit you with lucky shots, and also...the academy administrators are blatant abusers. It kinda bugs me.
Ofc, I'm used to the single saber and the clan I'm with makes people follow rules stringently...if you're into the capture the flag and team free for alls than there's no rules to uphold. Depends on what you want. Academy does have game modes, and siege is quite amusing. Essentially, they're the same game with different characters and sabers. The connection is great--unless you've 56 k. Then don't look into either of them.
Kotor is not JE. i have SW kotors and JE. JE in my opinion is a little better becuase you really get the feeling of being all powerful. in Kotor you are like Yay i am Blank( everyone knows who) i am powerful. but when it comes to combat you cant do like 20 foot jumbs and shoot fireballs out of your hand at will and suman dragons and turn into 30 foot monsters and have real time combat. but the conversates are the same. like multiple choices and OP(open palm) = lightside CF(closed fist) = darkside. yeah and instead of one character at a time it is 2 characters at a time. the positive things about kotor is that since it is a rpg it has like a crap load of force powers. and it also has a very good story line. but i would highly not recomend kotor 2 withour one. first off if you play kotor 2 first and not one you will miss the moves/stuff that you dont get in the first one. if you play the first one the story will be a lot better and you won't miss stuff like forms and 10 different lightsaber colors and stuff that you get in kotor one. JE > KOTOR 1 > KOTOR 2 ( overall)
KOTOR 1 > JE > KOTOR 2 ( storywise)
Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy both way overpowered the characters, and i dislike Katarn and the way puts down Luke, but there you go. I'd really likely like to see a new one where your Luke, but I supposed we have a duelling game with Ep.3 now (is that worth buying?).
KOTOR is probably my favorite game, its just so wonderfully geeky 😛, I've got KOTOR 2 but it doesnt work on my PC still :'😉

Meh.
For the most part, the skill-based clans are the ones who are comprised of the biggest jerks. If you want to have fun, try to look for one that accepts people more on personality than anything...I've been in both kind of groups, and the respect one was by far more fun...
