Game News Jagged Alliance: Flashback Kickstarter confirmed

An official german-speaking RR forum? i as the creator of that mod should know about it, if it existed. Care to share a link? thx

as for refreshing mods, try your hands at Ja1/2 metavira made by the Night Ops Team. Reading all that you wrote ITT, i'd suggest to play it on novice mode, though.

and for the kickstarter... man am i happy to have resisted the urge to add hammers and sickles to any of the RR logos (ingame, there might be a few red stars and such... c'mon, there was simply no way around it)

 

Dunno, ask Lorica. Perhaps his remark about speaking German has lead me to a wrong conclusion.

More details plox. I only recall Return to Metavira, looked great but iirc it was never finished.
It's been some time since I sifted the interwebs for JA info, so it may have changed.

Eh?

 

Ah, I see I'm the source of the confusion. I was referring to the very active German-language modding community in general, not RR in particular, though Vengeance is German only right now, isn't it? I've never tried it, but I think the Demise of Man pretty-total-conversion (that's 1.13 compatible, if I understand correctly) is also primarily German. That's just to name two on my list of "to install once I've bought a German dictionary" mods.

Anyway, you should probably check out all of the mods with hosted fora on the Bear's Pit if you're really starved, although I see you're interested in 1.13 compatible mods. To tell you the truth, though I find 1.13 great, I rarely miss the features once I'm in a good TC.

 

Well it's on now:
www.kickstarter.com/projects/2079547763/jagged-alliance-flashback?ref=recently_launched

 

I make shits for free, so I have no doubt.

 

No enemy patrols nor encounters on the map. It's definitely more xcom than JA...

 

It's Bitcomposer right? Maybe CrashOberbreit can answer that question.

 

We still own the Jagged Alliance brand. However, it is - after all - a license. And we can, of course, give that license, to other companies and allow them to use it. We did so with JA Online. And we did so for Full Control. However the Full Control deal is quite different since it is more or less a "heart-thing" (at least that's what I'd call it). I fell down on my knees to convince people here that there should be a turn based JA game. And I again fell down on my knees to convince people that Full Control should get the rights for their vision. Some may ask: Why them? So far they just did this Frontline Tactics stuff. Right. And it was an iPad game. The PC port wasn't.... that good in my eyes. But I've seen Space Hulk. I played Space Hulk. Long before it was shown at the GDC. After that I fell on my knees harder than ever before to convince people. I do believe that FC can do a good JA game, yes.

And so we are here. We gave them the license. They can use it. We offered funding. They wanted to stay independent. It was kinda tough to convince people that this would still be a good idea - but it worked. They can offer it DRM free, hell they can even offer it with flying cats. They now have the license, they can do whatever they wish to do - at least once. Cause the license-agreement is just for one game. At least for now. Who knows? If this game kicks ass and chews bubblegum, Full Control might also do JA3. Who knows?

 

The NFO just mentioned how to install and play. No instructions there...

 

huh? I am from bitComposer
We own the Trademark and the whole franchise. But we can hand it over to those who ask if we feel that they can do a good job.

 

I...want to believe CrashBandicoot...but so...so....hard....I just can't seem to get Back the Action to trust a publisher again.

 

Well, I joined bC near the end of the production of BiA. Tried my best with boxing through the patches. Didn't completely work out but at least it was something. And now I've put my hope into Full Control. Hope those guys use the license well.

 

Someone tagged me as Evil Publisher some days ago already. Open your eyes next time.

 

Or maybe Jagged Alliance: Zombie Apocalypse!

A 4 person coop where you pick from one of 4 iconic AIM mercs and work as a team to stop Deidranna's Undead Army!!!!

STEAM SALE STOCKING FILLER RIGHT THERE!!!! Every purchase gets an appropriately JA themed hat for TF2!

 

I'll ask Full Control if they could add such a thing as one of their stretch goals. just because of you.

 

Were you the one responsible for naming the BiA patch 1.13? That was a neat troll...

 

You evil, evil publisher you

 

That was marketing :-/

 

The stretch goal everyone would be interested is mod tools.
Maybe Tact. Cancer could do an interview.

 

If Cancer wants to do an interview, he shall contact me. I'll give him the studio bosses email.

Jaesun: They already have the license. We allowed them already to use it. I won't say anything about the amount of money or if money at all was a matter of that. Let's just say that IF there was money involved it wasn't that much at all. See: If this works out well and the game becomes great, everyone wins. Even we, cause we may have found a Studio for JA3 in the end.
