Black Ninja has done something to help us get jj3. maybe.
alright, i couldnt post a message on Project3Interactive's website, and so i sent them THIS email:
Hello! I have read the thread on your message board titled 'what would you like to see as our next product', and I tried posting but it wouldn't let me create an account. So, I will send you some information here. My website, found at *WHOAH! you thought i'd post it here?!* has all the information and screenshots you might need to get you started. as for the 'silly prices' Epic is asking, I can't help you there. =) Thank you, Black Ninja they sent a message back saying they've passed the info on, now we can only wait. and if this brings us jj3, you may all call me MASTER. ![]() |
Feb 19, 2002, 06:36 PM | |
and if this brings us jj3, be as surprised as i will be. =p

Inspiring music and levels (like the flooded castle basement). But it needs more objects and stuff ;p
yet, it's only a demo.

hehe. Jazz3D has couple good battle levels, but the multiplayer code has some few bugs in it.

We've done this before.. JJ3 won, I don't think anyone voted for anything else. But Project3 hasn't done anything.
Actually, we just replied to the topic. I may still have an account there ![]() What was their site address again?

But we cheated on that poll didn't we?
Anyways, if there's a demo for Unreal, we should be able to have teh jj3 demo. And just a few bugs in the multiplayer?! THE CLIENTS DON'T EVEN GET HIT POINTS!!! Althought it' is a pretty cool game considering. The castle level ruled, as well as the basement, the netcode was faster than jj2's and allowed actual evading. The weapons were pretty cool considering again. Needless to say, I'd stay off the computer for a while (3 days or so) and download a decent demo than wait overnight 6 days for it.

Evading shots would still be harder for me. Even though I completely avoided in my screen, I still get hurt. Unreal engine does not support lag-tolerance. Stupid server-side codes only.
Well yes, a few bugs. ![]() And client's ammo doesn't recharge. There just something in the unreal script that needs to be adjusted. If I could only understand unreal script good enough.

We never cheated on the P3 THREAD. It wasn't a poll, they asked "What game woould you like to see made?" and we won. We didn't cheat.
We cheated on the GodGames poll. Hehe, NewSpaz or someone found a thread on some MB for one of the other games and they said "The green bunny's WINNING!" They guessed we were cheating. THEN WE INVADED THEIR FORUM W00H00

alright, first of all:
I can't show any of you the website. And if i did, all you'd get is a big fat 'enter username/password' screen. second: getting the demo is completely against the law in every way possible. dont ask. |
Mar 16, 2002, 10:15 AM | |
what did you make this topic for then?

Oh man, why is that forum down? I wanted to contribute to it!
I'm telling you guys, be patient, never give up, and ANNOY THE **** OUT OF THEM! Or Epic, or whoever owns the rights to Jazz Jackrabbit games. Some people say forget it, it's pointless, Jazz has no future. Screw that! You know, I'm also a very huge Sierra fan and Sierra went through a lot of changes since 1996. So many talented people that made their series and their success got laid off, Sierra was focusing on "new projects" rather than what they are all about. There was going to be a Space Quest 7, but it wasn't going to be too great. Now a new guy has bought the company, and he's rehiring staff and doing his homework on what made the company so great. He is determined to bring back Sierra and bring back the old series, starting with SQ7. It seems promising, and if they come back, it's because the fans never forgot about the series, and bugged Sierra a lot. Now Sierra has many game series with many sequels and many fans for each. They sold well. Jazz hasn't been given enough of a chance. There was Jazz Jackrabbit, it sold well I think, right? And Jazz 2 didn't. But CC and TSF only came out in Europe, and they were the same engine anyway. Jazz hasn't been on GameBoy Advance, hasn't been on any consoles, hasn't been in 3D! There's so much they could do with the series, and it would make a lot of money I think. So why do they want to be so quick to give up on it? Maybe we should annoy Project 3 Interactive or Epic, or maybe we should just email the animators of the games, and they can work for a company that would like to work on the project and would be able to make it good, and not just just another bland 3D platformer. I know just what Jazz 3 should be like. It would blend elements of Jazz 1 and 2, Fur Fighters, and some solid 3D platformers that are very popular. It would be a third-person platformer/shooter, but you could see Jazz from any angle. If we're patient and persistant and we email the right people, the project will be in the bag. Ya know, I hope! |

Well, I don't know what you mean by Fur Fighters being limiting, but as I haven't played the Jazz 3 demo, and as Fur Fighters is the closest game that would resemble Jazz 3 (what with cartoon animals with guns) that is why I said it should be like it. Please elaborate on how it's limiting. Certianly Jazz 3 could add more to the concept and make a better game out of it. It would be very much a 3D platformer, except Jazz would shoot the enemies (or stomp on them, or whatever like Jazz 2), and unlike Fur Fighters, the view shouldn't be limited to seeing the character's back. A full view should be allowed.
Well, whatever cause them to get annoyed and less interested we don't want to do. But what can we do then? Maybe they'll fail at their other projects, and realise Jazz is the way to go. Make a lot of money on a well-known franchise before you try something new with not enough money to risk. |
Apr 26, 2002, 03:13 PM | |
So, their boards are back up. Whatever happened to flooding their boards with requests for Jazz Jackrabbit 3?
Oh yeah, and why are we asking them to make it? Epic made Jazz 1 and 2, but I guess they will never ever make a sequel. What about GodGames? Didn't they have something to do with it? And what's up with Project 3 Interactive? Did they change their number from 2 to 3 or something? Do you think these guys would be able to make a good Jazz sequel? I haven't heard about this company before. Where are the creators of Jazz 1 and 2? Are they still with Epic? What is Arjan, Nick and Dean up to these days? Why has Epic abandoned Jazz 2? It's not all THAT old. 1998 is kind of old, but why have they already abandoned it? It's just not right for Epic to hold on to the rights, but not support the game's fans anymore and not create a new patch or provide the sourcecode. I know the game wasn't very successful, but Epic has to support their customers or it can give them a bad image, and if they lose our interest we may not buy some of their products. I know I don't care about Unreal 2 unless it's REALLY something. FPS are too similar as it is. Why don't they support the Jazz licence and audience or sell it to someone? Someone who will be faithful to the series AND to the fans! It's not just because I'm a fan, but I think Jazz 3 could really be profitable if they make it right and advertise it properly. It could be similiar to Fur Fighters, but even better! Come on, let's bug Epic and Project 3, and maybe even GodGames. |
Apr 26, 2002, 03:27 PM | |
Oh, I actually see that you guys sure DID flood it! Wow! Ofcourse, that was in 2001, I wonder if they remember the suggestions. You know, they can't ignore THAT big a response. Anyway, it sucks that it's locked now, because I had some ideas also that I wanted to add....

It IS right for Epic to not give out the sourcecode because THEY HOLD THE RIGHTS TO THE GAME ENGINE AND GAME!!! Many companies no longer provide support for old games and no longer provide updates eg: Worms Armageddon doesn't work on XP, but Team 17 hasn't provided any patch. THey don't give away the license cause they DON'T WANT TO. Most gamers like lots of violence at least the majority does, and that's what the publishers will support - Jazz will never be about violence and thus won't get support. And Unreal 2, though you may not care for it, is one of THE most anticipated titles - guaranteed to make them money. PLEASE, I'm getting tired of these threads, jsut drop the matter. |

It's really silly to give up on a franchise that hasn't had much chance, and base it on how a game sold that was rather quickly put togther and needed a lot more work, and released as a 2D game in a time when people want 3D. If it was just about being a loyal "fangirl", I know it would be hopeless to ask for Jazz 3. But there are a lot of us really, and even people who have enjoyed Jazz before but aren't a member of these forums, PLUS I really know that if the sequel was done properly, it would be accepted by the masses and be popular. Look at how popular cute games are when done right: Spyro, Sonic, Mario, Pokemon... And it isn't all for kids, and we don't have a platform mascot for the PC except for Jazz, and they should make the franchise across more platforms as well. I think some companies focus on the wrong things when they think about what sells and what doesn't. Slap a game together quickly, don't advertise, and it doesn't matter if it's cute or violent - it won't sell. Quote:
Until then, as long as I stay withen the right topics and don't flood other topics with posts about this matter, I will continue to make whatever topics I see fit. If a post like this comes around, you are not required by law to answer it. I don't know what your beef is with me and this matter. I have a freedom of speech, as do you. Besides, isn't it better that I ask questions or just talk to you guys about this BEFORE going to the companies? I sure don't want to make it guaranteed that we won't get more Jazz. I understand you are getting frustrated and impatient with me, as I am somewhat of a newbie here and full of positive optimism. But you don't have to agree with me, and you don't have to reply. I was just checking up on this topic, because it had somewhat of a ray of hope. Isn't that something you have to take advantage of when the opportunity arises? |
