Movie Battles 3
Movie Battles II (MBII) is a team-based, last man standingmultiplayermod of the 2003 video gameStar Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.[2] It is a successor of the Movie Battles mod for Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. The primary purpose of the mod is to allow players to experience setpiece battle scenes from the Star Wars films and the Star Wars expanded universe.[3] Although most gameplay features from the base game remain, they received numerous modifications and improvements, while new ones have been added. The mod is notable for improving the lightsaber combat from Jedi Academy, which was already regarded as one of the best games in this regard. It also incorporates third- and first-person shooter elements.
Movie Battles II is a team game, with players being able to join one of two sides at the beginning of every round: the Light Side or the Dark Side of the Force; depending on the map, either side will be represented by a different faction (the Galactic Republic / Rebel Alliance / Resistance for the Light Side, and the Confederacy of Independent Systems (CIS) / Galactic Empire / First Order for the Dark Side), to reflect the various eras of Star Wars. Regardless of faction, each side features customizable character classes; in certain game modes, players only have access to pre-defined classes, which can't be customized. While Movie Battles II has several different game modes, all pit the two teams against each other, either to complete certain objectives, or to eliminate all members of the enemy team.
Gameplay[edit]

Movie Battles II is a team-based game that allows players to join either the Lights Side of the Force (represented by the Galactic Republic, the Rebel Alliance, or the Resistance, depending on the map) or the Dark Side (represented by the Separatists/CIS, the Galactic Empire, or the First Order). The game incorporates both lightsaber combat and shooter elements, and can be played from either a third- or first-person perspective. The lightsaber combat in Movie Battles has been substantially changed from the original game. Blocking and defensive moves are favored over the unmodded game's 'swing-spam'. There are meters for both force pool and block stamina which deplete as the player intercepts incoming blaster and lightsaber attacks.[4]
Similarly to games like Counter-Strike, Movie Battles uses an objective system, where one team defends and the other one attacks one or more objectives. Objective types are usually variants on common themes,[5] such as 'slicing panels', or NPC guarding. Every round, the attacking team must complete their given objective within a given amount of time, while the defending team tries to delay them until the timer runs out; alternatively, each team can win by eliminating all members of the enemy team. Any player who is killed before the end of the round becomes a spectator. They may follow certain players who are still alive or free-roam in the spectator cam, similar to other first-person shooters, such as Battlefield 2.[6]
Besides communicating with other players, the chat is used for voting. Players may vote to change the map or the game mode. The game also incorporates a voice chat, which is used to give quick commands to the rest of the team, such as 'Attack', 'Defend Position', and 'Charge'.
Classes[edit]
Most game modes in Movie Battles II let players choose between multiple character classes to play as. Players may select iconic Star Wars characters as 'skins' for these classes, and are given a limited number of points to upgrade stats and abilities; every class has a different playstyle and a few unique abilities.[5] If playing as Jedi or Sith, players can also customize their lightsaber hilt.

Development[edit]
Movie Battles was started by Richard Hart (online alias RenegadeOfPhunk) in 2003,[1] with the goal of mixing the round- and objective-based gameplay of Counter-Strike with the lightsaber and gun mechanics of Star Wars.[2] The first versions of the mod were developed for Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, the third game in the Jedi Knight series.[1] This version already had the key elements of Movie Battles in it, such as the modified lightsaber combat and the last man standing system. The mod was later remade for Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. A spin-off of Movie Battles II, titled The New Era (TNE), was developed using Source engine, which would have allowed for improved graphics and a better physics engine, but was cancelled in 2013. While meant to be a successor to Movie Battles II, the mod would have been closer to the deathmatch genre. Many members of the development team for TNE were also part of the Movie Battles team.[10][11] On April 2, 2011, a trailer revealing a sequel was released.[12]Movie Battles 3 was going to be a standalone, free game developed on the Unreal Engine,[13] but due to a general disinterest among developers and the game's community, coupled with the lack of developers willing to stay on board the project to begin with, it was cancelled after a few years in development. Since then, developers have focused on expanding and improving Movie Battles II, with several updates being released every year. The latest update, 1.6.2.2,[14] was released on July 8, 2020.
Reception[edit]
In 2005 the UK edition of PC Gamer printed an article covering the mod. In the same year Sky News mentioned Movie Battles alongside other user-made game modifications.[8][15] It was also mentioned by Rock, Paper, Shotgun's Alec Meer in the sites 2015 list of best Star Wars video games. Of the mod, Meer said the mod was something players should 'probably [...] check out.'[16] Matthew Znadowicz of Eurogamer Poland called the game's action 'unique and fresh', yet noted that battles often became 'stressful, intense, but extremely pleasant.'[17] As of June 2016, 400 users on the website Mod DB have rated the game with the average score of 9.4.[18]
