Game News Jagged Alliance: Flashback on Steam Early Access

[InspectorRumpole]

A trailer that tries to be funny, that IS actually funny. What the...

 

[Infinitron]

In general, from looking at their Steam discussion forums, it's evident that they've prepared for this release well (I love the "your price is too damn high" post).

I wouldn't be surprised if they'd gotten advice from inXile through their old partnership with Kevin Saunders.

So, all new cast of characters? I hope so. I don't think I'd be able to stand having Magic be voiced by somebody else since his voice is the coolest in the game

Apparently this is set before any of the previous JA games, so possibly some of the older JA mercs will appear. They haven't revealed anything yet, I'm guessing due to voice acting negotiations (and butthurt).

A newbie Mike with abysmal stats would be p. funny.

Not a bad idea. They could utilize that JFK bit from his bio:

Since he's obviously too young for that to be true.

How could I have missed this?! This looks amazing!

But:
Graphics: 2 GB Dedicated Graphics Card
I hope that changes with ongoing development.

I don't like this at all. That I feel much more inclined after watching the trailer. But I'll still stay sceptical,
I'm not that easy to get. Not that I'm not easy to get. But not that easy. You can't just shout
Space Hul... Jagged Alliance, and think you got me.

 

[Eyeball]

What if they whisper it in your ear while playing seductively with your hair?

 

[set]

Yay marketing!

For once it actually worked. Even at 40 bux I'm tempted to support it, since I'd love a real JA3... is this even close? Can anyone say at all if this even approaches JA2 yet?

 

[SuicideBunny]

Bear's Pit is hopeful

sounds like it might be worth picking up once a few mods rolled out and it dropped in price.

 

[J_C]

I don't know I still feel like JA2 (with patches) is perfect, and it doesn't need a remake, reboot whatever.. :shrugs:

 

[Surf Solar]

Same here. It looks like shit compared to the original and feels obsolete.

RPS: What is that style?

Lund: I’m not an artist! (laughs) But the guys call it stylistic realism. It’s a similar direction to the one that Wasteland has gone in.

 

[Ninjerk]

I really don't like the way it looks. I can't really put my finger on the style, but it isn't good. Sims, maybe?

 

[Direwolf]

There is something wrong with the camera angle. It just doesn't look right.
