Great Franchise - Mediocre Expansion
After playing and finishing Jagged Alliance 2, i decided to write a quick review - praising JA2 (and rightfully so) for the abundance of positive aspects this Turn Based Tactics title possessed. Playing that game on the hardest difficulty with Iron Man mode enabled was not only viable and very much possible, it was also ENTERTAINING despite obviously being difficult. The original game provided a real challenge, but the freedom of choice in JA2 also gave players some much needed breathing space, allowing various strategies and approaches in order to finally defeat Deidriana. In other words, JA2 was well balanced, a property that JA2 UB does not have by a long shot. So as mentioned earlier, after finishing JA2 on Expert Diffuclty with Iron Man Mode, i wanted to do the same thing for Unfinished Business... Let me tell you, if you plan on doing this also - save yourself some time and nerves. JA2 UB just takes the original game and its assets and squeezes the hell out of them with repetitious and gruelling combat. We basically get about a dozen maps where we are severely outgunned and outmanned by camping enemy troops and every battle becomes nothing more than a chore. Get ready to save and load a few dozen times for every battle, because JA UB was not scripted to have balanced enemies - rather it has passive enemies that are waiting in shadows to kill your mercs and urinate on their still barely warm corpses. There isn't much new when it comes to the additions for this expansion pack either. We have a few funny NPC's, a new map (a very small one) and 9 new guns,3 of which for some reason (i still ponder to this day) are wacky, odd Calico 9mm pistols in a handgun, rifle and smg configuration. How do you add 9 guns with 3 of them being sucky, puny Calico's is beyond me. By the end of the game,after you kill the Barrett wielding antagonist, you will genuinely breathe out with relief that you can finally uninstall this game. JA 2 UB is a clanky expansion for a great TBS.
Hilft dir das weiter?
