So many people wrote, talked and reviewed this game that I finally had to try it. And you know what? They were right, it's a great game. Beautiful graphics, music and story. An interesting combat system. There are moments that are repetitive or even slightly boring at times, but the story is engaging, and that's what matters most. As a 50-year-old gamer, I haven't played anything interesting in a long time, and games don't appeal to me as much anymore. However, this title broke that rule, and I play it whenever I have a free moment at my old PC. I recommend it.
Ok, this is Jagged Alliance. Applause for the creators. But why max 3 stars? Because while the execution, graphics and gameplay are very good, unfortunately the gameplay is a rehash of the old one. And I don't like it when a game makes a fool out of me and I have to do the same thing over and over again because of such mechanics. So the downsides: -why do weapons break down so quickly? It is pointless and a hindrance by force; -Why is there nothing left after killing enemies 50% of the time? Ok it could be a broken weapon, but why after killing the MG guy did his weapon magically evaporate? Why such stupidity as in the old JA2. I get it, we're continuing the series, but why not fix the mistakes of the old game? After all, I'm not going to take everything anyway since we have a weight limit. But why isn't there even ammunition left next to the corpses? -The first small island, and I generally get tired of the style: wounded mercenaries, I treat them, the enemy occupies the village. I have a militia there, but I go to help them. I win, but I have wounded again. The enemy's weapons have evaporated. I repeat the cycle...and again. ANNOYING AND TIRING. -it's also easy to make a missclick that ruins the whole mission. The system is not intuitive.
Seemingly a fun game, but unfortunately, also very tiring. You basically play and die and guess what went wrong, doing the same thing over and over again at the beginning. The game throws you in at the deep end and you can't even test anything. All in all, I regret buying it. The game is phenomenally made. Super nice graphics and animations, cool music. But why is the game so difficult to learn and why am I doing the same thing over and over again ?I don't feel attached to a character because I'm going to die anyway and get on that bandwagon with a new team all over again. Maybe it's my fault, DD1 I never finished but I had fun there. here I feel rather frustrated. Just my opinion...
If you're looking for a challenge, especially at the higher difficulty levels, you can break your teeth here. A good game where the AI doesn't drive only on the roads and can surprise you. Smaller scale than in WARNO, but because of that, you have to manage your forces better and control what is happening on the map.
More military iron is clashing. Infantry units, helicopter transport , new armies. What more could you want? Really great work. Recommended. And good price!
