![]() ![]() I decided to give the aforementioned v.1.13 a try as I haven't come across it before - all those guns sounded just too cool to pass by. Jagged Aliiance focuses on one small part of gameplay and simply perfects it.Īlso: Did they ban you yet MrHappy? Or are you a good boy? If your RPG is going to have a weak story and little interaction with NPCs, then don't try to fix that, instead compansate with the rest of the gameplay. This is how you make games, don't try to be the ace of everything. Of course I reloaded almost at every round and - painfull as it was - I still had alot of fun. I took the New Jersey girl with me to act as bait for enemies waiting for me at corners and stuff like that.īasicly with a team of just 2 people I managed to beat my way almost Meduna, but by that time, I was rich as hell, so I added Tarballs, Static and the other dudes to my squad. I picked Magic and I was amazed how easy everything was this time. The second time, I tried to play with just one guy, custom made mercenaries are worthless, so I had to pick between Magic and Tarballs. The dirst time I played JA2, I had a hard time trying to keep the squiad togheter and I didn't finish the game. Last time I checked, it was only ten bucks, so you can either buy a bunch of kickass strategy games for a great deal or buy a something awful account and post witty stuff :choices and consequences: There is usually a bunch on ebay that come in a “conquest sixpack” from strategy first, comes with JA2 gold, both expansions, and 4 other strategy games. I recommend playing it non-ironman first, because it is a damn hard game regardless. Among other things, it has the best combat system of any game I’ve ever played, better roleplaying than most rpgs (stats, choices and consequences, non-combat related multiple solutions, reactive world, that sort of stuff), and a pretty kickass crafting system. ![]() Unless you have shit taste, it is one of the best games ever. You pretty much need to have JA2 to do this, so if you don’t, get it the hell now. I don’t know how to work those fancy grave stone things so if a merc dies (edit) add a sad smily or somethingģ. Document your experience with screenshots (Print screen + image shack works fine) and captions at interesting/amusing/relevant points, like your mercs getting blown to bits, blowing up a wall, escaping prison, or shooting crows. I’ll also throw up a fallen Merc/Npc board.Ģ. I don't really expected anybody to win, but if you do, you get a prize, and go on the BOARD OF THE VICTORIUS. If you don't make a main merc, you are a tool. I don't really care how you define losing, I guess if you are in an impossible situation (no money, no mercs, all towns taken back, that sort of thing) but if your main Merc dies, you go one the BOARD OF LOSERS. If you screw up though, keep playing, no jumping between saves to see which choices comes out the best. Save a lot and in different slots, to avoid corruption and so you don't have to play for hours on end. So, anyway, the basic rules and regulations are pretty much the same as the last time:ġ. Basically, this way, you have to live with your bad choices and random defeats and actually think about what you are doing. This way, retreating from battles, wearing the "Deidranna rules!" shirt, buying insurance, and not being retarded all can become important tactics. For this, same idea, but no save-reload bs, so if your mercs become POWS, Dressen is retaken by Dedreiannea or whatever her name is, a mine runs out of precious metals, town/merc loyalty plummets, Conrad attacks you, you plot a dumb travel route, the merc you hired actually sucks, etc, deal with it. ![]() I know Jagged Alliance 2 (gold at least) already has an optional Ironman mode, but it only prevents you from saving during combat, which basically means you have to deal with the mutilation and potential death of your favorite merc if you aren't careful. I decided to give it a roll, and considering the success of the last ironman challenge, I thought I'd invite the rest of the crew along. That's how I played it the first time, and it was still one of the best games ever, but now, its time. Why? Because it is all about choices and consequences, and a lot of great features are missed when you're a goddamn pansy who reloads at everything that might possibly be a failure or mistake. This is one of those games that needs to be played at least once with Ironman mode. Non-Ironman mode is basically bitch ass pansy mode, only fit for gays and little girls. ![]()
