Jagged Alliance: Back in Action Message Board  

Haven't played a tactical squad shooter in ages. Last one was Silent Storm, which I loved, but doesn't seem to have made it to the Steam age.

Just tried the demo for Jagged Alliance: Back in Action and pre-ordered the full game.

The demo mission dumps you next to a hut full of heavily armed enemies, got my arse handed to me every time I tried taking them out.

However, one of your squad has a sniper rifle and it has convincing range. Wiped out a lot of the other side of the game map with just the sniper before he was fatally winged.

Liking it!

I concur. There's a lot of people who are long time JA2 players that bemoan the loss of true turn based combat. But I'd have to say I like their implementation of their plan-and-go system.

In the demo at least I was able to coordinate room take downs, bounding over watch, and ambushes without too much difficulty.

I couldn't find a control binding list though, so I'm yet to figure out how to rotate the view. Other than that though it's looking very nice.

Rogue-au: It's taught in the tutorial. Press down ALT and move your mouse sideways.

But I'm definitely waiting for this...and the trainer also since the challenge was a bit steep for my liking.

I've written a bunch of CoSMOS scripts for the demo just for fun. And been working my way around the character data structures

Can post Inf Health, Inf Ammo, etc if you like
