Necro only to point out the Kickstarter campaign for Jagged Alliance: Flashback, with some people from the original team. The Kickstarter is ending in 28 hours and they are 40k shy of the goal. I think I am gonna pledge 25. If they make it, I want in.
Quite nice. Looooooooooooved Jagged Alliance 2. Release date of "late 2014 but maybe later if we get enough funding to add additional features" is a bit of a bummer though. I will be too old to play computer games in late 2014.
Not only that the final straw for me is when I discovered damage interrupted orders. If your merc takes dmg he will stop reloading his weapon for example. Which pretty well makes out of ammo death unless you can get him to cover.
I feel kind of bad not supporting this but having been burned by disappointing product twice now I'm a bit hesitant to invest. Too bad they could't have put out some kind of demo that showed how gameplay went.
I am glad. I am pretty sure that's thanks to the people at inXile. They started advertising for the game with 30 hours to go and I'd say it worked. I had no idea this project existed before the Wasteland 2 bunch put it up on their Facebook page. They also gave credit to JA2 by saying that lots of ideas in Wasteland 2 are inspired by Jagged Alliance. Well, sweet.
Fake Edit: you know what's ridiculous? The new fashion pieces they came up with for new pledge tiers.
