Gfted1 Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 I thought it sounded pretty neat that you can "hot swap" your character build on the fly. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Keyrock Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Releases tomorrow: I hope it's good. Alternate history cold war era espionage XCOM seems like such a great idea. Hopefully stealth is a option in missions. This is from the folks that made Hard West, a decent enough turn-based tactical game with a really great theme.

ShadySands Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) I thought it sounded pretty neat that you can "hot swap" your character build on the fly.Like in Andromeda? I don't think I ever used it other than just testing it once. PS can you buy card packs? I didn't see anything about it but I mostly skimmed due to lack of interest Edited August 13, 2018 by ShadySands Free games updated 3/4/21
Gfted1 Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 ^Im not sure, I never played any of the ME series. The relevant part of the article: Perk cards can be swapped out at anytime, which allows for experimentation with different character builds or adapting to certain situations. For example, the Lone Wanderer perk gives players additional experience points when playing solo, but can be swapped out for another perk since it'd be a waste when joining a group.

SonicMage117 Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 It will suck, because I pre-ordered it. I know the feels. Everything I like sucks, even tv shows get cancelled. I'm a curse I reckon 1 Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail...
Malcador Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Well, I don't really like any game that sucks in my own eyes. If it doesn't review well and I enjoy it, then that is no issue. It does look promising and I'm allowed one bad game a year, so at worst this will be it. Why has elegance found so little following?

Hurlshort Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Well if you enjoyed Hard West, which was a bit of an unpolished gem, odds are good you will like the new title.
Katphood Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) I liked the e3 demo better, it was trippy. Now it looks...'dusty' which sort of reminds me of DOOM. On a different note: I hope id makes a Quake V at some point. Edited August 14, 2018 by Katphood 1 There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
Keyrock Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Not a fan of the art style, nor anything about the trailer, for that matter. I'd love to have another good Jagged Alliance game, but I have little confidence that this will be it.

Mamoulian War Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Another case, why going full digital is not as bright future as some people promote it. Especially for customers.

I'd love to have another good Jagged Alliance game, but I have little confidence that this will be it. I sincerely hope I'm wrong. Damn, I really don't know, man. On the one hand, the original Jagged Alliance did not have a very realistic and gritty look. On the other hand, it wasn't really... this... either. Shame they haven't shown more actual gameplay. 2 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

I'd love to have another good Jagged Alliance game, but I have little confidence that this will be it. I sincerely hope I'm wrong. Huh. I don't really know how I feel about this. I worship at the altar of Ian Currie and Sir-Tech, so I'm always going to be skeptical. I am not against a reboot with a new art style. Honestly it will come down to the characters and the combat, so who knows? It has better backing than the last couple attempts with THQ Nordic. I am loving the rebirth of the genre though. 1
Keyrock Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Believe me, I want Jagged Alliance Rage! to be good. I desperately want it to be good. I can look past the art style, which I'm not keen on, if they nail the gameplay, but they showed all of 3 seconds of gameplay in that trailer, so we don't really have much to go on. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
Lexx Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Checked out some preview and they say it ain't that good. Seems there really is a curse on this franchise, because nothing is able to top JA2, not even getting close. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
HoonDing Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 looks dreadful The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Majek Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 I could deal the art style if the manage to make combat good enough. BUT mangling the mercs this way just makes me mad. So i'll just run Ja1 or DG and cry while playing. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Zoraptor Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 If it has Calvin Barkmore as a playable merc I'm in. I've always wanted to play someone with titanium bones. But they will inevitably be sued by Zenimax® to prevent confusion with iD®'s shooter Rage®.
Malcador Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 I guess they named it that to reflect the reception from JA fans. 5 Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

mkreku Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Just here with your daily reminder that Bethesda are scumbags: Bethesda threatens lawsuit over sale of secondhand game Just another example of how thorough TooLeetForYou is with his opinion. Check out why they actually did it: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-08-11-pete-hines-defends-bethesdas-legal-threat-on-amazon-marketplace-game-seller Spoiler: guy tried to sell a game he bought as "New". But there's no way for anyone to confirm that the game is actually new (which means it still has all the digital codes etc. intact) so Bethesda wants him to sell it as "pre-owned". That's it. It's that simple. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

It's that simple. How utterly predictable. At least tell me you're an industry plant and not doing this on your own dime? There's no way for anyone to confirm that anything you buy on Amazon Marketplace is actually "new", genius. That's what the Marketplace guarantee is for. If they want their authorized distributors to be separate from Joe Nobody from Nebraska, they can give them a seal or certificate that they can display in their profile or whatever. They can use proprietary shrink wrap as WotC have been doing for decades now to prevent this kind of problem. The solutions are endless. This is plain dumb, and just the latest example of their overbearing and sue-happy attitude. 1 - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Keyrock Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) ^ So, a Bethesda version of this? Edit: I'd like to imagine a Bethesda seal of quality first glitching out when you look at it, then falling apart, before the pieces finally hilariously fly off into space in an apparent physics bug.
