But one of its primary goals was to make you hit less (or more precisely, to combat 100% granted head shots with advanced and/or heavily modified weapons). One of 1.13's greatest features is a complete reworking of how firing works internally, making it arguably one of the most realistic systems employed in an isometric game. To provide just one example, there's the revamped to hit chance. In theory, you can emulate the vanilla 1.12 experience on 1.13 fairly closely, but that's definitely not how it comes configured by default. 1.13 adds a tremendous array of features to the game, most of which can be tweaked and toggled on or off (which does require starting a new game, however). It adds immensely more to the overall JA2 experience, with perhaps the greatest aspect being the modding possibilities. Why do you recommend Stracciatella over 1.13? Just curious.ĭon't get me wrong, 1.13 provides an incredible enhancement to the original game. Apparently it wasn't just me having this problem - from Steam forum: 'unfortunately Stracciatella makes the game stutter like crazy, so I'm stuck on some variant of the 1.13 mod, unfortunately.' (yes, I'm lazy)Īwesome, thanks! Will try that. Wildfire seems to be even harder than 'vanilla' JA2, which is damned hard enough, IMO, so unless someone has some real strong opinions that I should play Wildfire, I'd rather stick with Classic.in some form.Ĭame across this version, 'Stracciatella' but not sure if that is better, worse, newer, etc than version 1.13 which I think is the fan based mod.Īnybody played this recently, or done this research? I can foresee reading up on this for hours before I even play, so if someone has already done it. Yes, I'm aware I'm unfairly bringing a completely different game into this (JA1), but when searching and reading, it's a bit hard to separate the two.ĪNYWAY.I'm simply looking for the best, most playable, enjoyable version of JA2 available. That started me down the rabbit hole of the million and one versions of this game, in its various iterations - JA1, JA Gold, Wildfire, JA2 Classic, Unfinished Business, etc.

Opens and plays surprisingly well! The camera is way too herky jerky, but if I can find a mod to fix that, or slow it down, it might be playable. It's definitely past its expiration date for all except the most avid JA fans (which I consider myself one, but even I have limits). I would say RIGHT on the brink of playability (to me). Ass was kicked immediately in Wildfire, but play was ok. So I fired it up just to see just how bad and old it looked, and if it was even playable. The game also features a sci-fi mode that introduces an enemy not present in realistic mode – the 'Crepitus', a species of giant insect living underground and occasionally emerging to the surface.So I got A version of Jagged Alliance 2 from a Humble or GOG or Fanatical bundle today, and noticed something funny: Jagged Alliance: Wildfire is the so-called base game. The rebel leader Miguel Cordona, former election candidate and opponent of Enrico, guides the player to the city of Drassen. Omerta suffered a massive raid shortly before the events of the game, leaving the town damaged and nearly deserted. He puts the player and his team of mercenaries in contact with a rebel movement in the northern town of Omerta. When the game begins, Chivaldori has hired the player to remove Deidranna by whatever means necessary. Removing all other obstacles from her way, she soon consolidated her power and converted Arulco into an authoritarian state. Enrico managed to escape, faking his own death. However, Deidranna proved to be far more than a simple pawn showing an unquenchable thirst for power, she soon framed Chivaldori for the murder of his father.

In 1988, election candidate Enrico Chivaldori took a wife, Deidranna Reitman of Romania, in order to boost his popularity and consequently was victorious. Jagged Alliance 2 takes place in the fictional nation of Arulco, ruled until the late 1980s by a unique democratic monarchy – a monarch led the nation, but elections were held every ten years to assert their legitimacy. In July 2006, the Jagged Alliance 2 Gold Pack was released on Steam. Jagged Alliance 2 and the Unfinished Business expansion were combined in the Jagged Alliance 2 Gold Pack, released on August 6, 2002. It is the third game in the Jagged Alliance series, and was followed by two expansions: Unfinished Business in 2000 and Wildfire in 2004. Jagged Alliance 2 is a tactical role-playing game for PC, released in 1999 for Windows, and later ported to Linux by Tribsoft.
