It's that time again! Community Feedback helps us out tremendously. Without the input from everyone involved, we wouldn't know where to go next.

11. Order 66: Revan - 1 Response
12. Duel of the Fates (Qui-Gon & Darth Maul) - 0 Responses

It wasn't very surprising that Qui-Gon and Maul's POVs for Duel of the Fates weren't chosen as favorites. Duel of the Fates' is an incredibly buggy mission, the other POVs lacked any additional information for what might've happened if Qui-Gon had survived or if Maul succeeded. Extended endings will be in development for our saga missions to hopefully offer some sort of conclusion. Duel of the Fates will be addressed first, and will be given a full makeover at some point in the future to fix a number of bugs and offer new stories at the end of Qui-Gon and Maul's POVs. Eventually, Father vs. Son will receive the same treatment.

12. Revan vs. Malak - 1 Response
13. Father vs. Son (Luke Skywalker) - 0 Responses

A number of responses were forced, but not too many. Reasons behind the top 2 choices were mainly due to an extreme amount of difficulty or immense boredom with shooting nonstop. Other missions weren't preferred because they were remakes of the actual events in the respective films, or were just overall boring. Similar missions were chosen due to the player not being interested in the actual media itself (like not being fans of KOTOR or The Clone Wars).

Q3: What missions excite you the most?

1. Saga Missions - 42 Responses
2. Bonus Missions - 24 Responses

You spoke, and we listened. The next few missions we're in production of right now are strictly Saga missions.

Q4: Do you prefer playing as a Jedi/Sith or Blaster character?

1. Jedi/Sith - 60 Responses
2. Blaster - 6 Responses

You speak, and we shall listen. The reasons were mainly out of personal preference, those who preferred blasters chose it because they enjoyed the added challenge. Those who preferred Jedi and Sith simply liked Lightsabers and using the Force. This will not stop us from producing blaster-focused missions, but we will definitely be focusing more on Lightsaber duels, which we hope you will enjoy more once manual blocking is implemented.

Q5: Which mini-mode interests you the most?

1. Challenge Mode - 54 Responses
2. Order 66 Mode - 12 Responses

Once again, you have spoken, and we shall listen. A challenge mode will be made available in KotF 2.2 at some point. After that is completed, an Order 66 mode will be made and you'll be able to fight alongside Delta Squad against the toughest the galaxy has to offer. The Order 66 mode will remain in the main menu for the time being and will later be changed to something else.

Q6: Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. General Grievous on Utapau is in production, would you like to see an additional POV for Commander Cody and a CIS Commando Droid?

1. Yes - 52 Responses
2. No - 14 Responses

It will be done, my lord.

Q7: When it comes to a new bonus mission, which game/TV show would you like to see one for?

1. The Force Unleashed - 12 Responses (Favorite: Starkiller vs. Kota/Starkiller vs. Vader)
2. The Clone Wars (2008 TV Series) - 11 Responses (Favorite: Anything involving Ahsoka or Maul)
3. The Old Republic - 11 Responses (Favorite: Sacking of Coruscant/The False Emperor)
4. Dark Forces II - 8 Responses (Favorite: Kyle vs. Jerec in the Valley of the Jedi)
5. The Clone Wars (2003 TV Series) - 6 Responses (Anakin vs. Asajj/Grievous vs. Jedi)
6. Rebels - 6 Responses (Favorite: Ahsoka vs. Vader)
7. Knights of the Old Republic - 5 Responses (Favorite: Extended Star Forge, all other responses weren't clear)
8. Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords - 3 Responses (The Trayus Academy/Duel against Darth Nihilus)
9. Republic Commando - 3 Responses (No suggestions)
10. The Force Unleashed II - 1 Response (Dark Apprentice vs. Leia)
11. Resistance + Dark Forces - 0 Responses

Overall responses were all over the place, so the favorites picked based on the summary were displayed with the number of responses. Needless to say we will be taking these suggestions into account when we begin production on more bonus missions.

We appreciate everyone who took part in this survey. If you weren't able to join in, don't worry, there will be more feedback forms in the future. Missions will be a high priority in Game Update 2.2, and we want to make 2.2 an update never to forget.

Thank you for following the development of Knights of the Force, and may the Force be with you.
