I will be thankful though.Īw: Re: Jagged Alliance Rage - First Gameplay This will not affect how and what I code, and I will not code specific features in return. I know now that it could never work between us, as much as we wanted to, it could never be! Not because you're a rabbit, but because you're black. But perhaps I've just missed all the games that came out from that. I've lost count of how often I've heard 'hey, let's create a new JA game from the ground up'. It might be different in other communities, but nothing I've seen so far gives me reason to believe otherwise. The best you can hope for is 1.13 in its current state, with all of the many flaws it currently has. To be polite, that's an extremely idealistic hope. Even the much derided JA successor games, like this one, present a huge amount of work going in.Īnd you can forget any idea about 'the comunity' somehow making it up on the go by everybody commiting tiny bits of work for free that somehow mesh up to become a functioning game. I don't know crap about coding/programming but how hard it is to make some simple turn based platform with just basic abilites like move/rotate in squares, shoot, AI sees you AI shoots and then expand on that features?Ĭoding small bits/doing bits of graphics is easy.ĭesigning a new game from the ground up? Over several years? Coordinating what amounts to a company? Paying salaries? Somehow keeping it all together? That is very hard. Think of it like 1.13 x 10000 but no hardcoded "limitations" No fancy next gen 3d graphics, mocap gamepause/cutscene animations and all other unneeded/intrusive crap. Then people at OpenTTD went further with idea and took/copied what made tycoon deluxe great, went with open source and now this game has so many options, mechanics, possibilities that I don't even know how to use and it expands and expands. Josef Draxler created "patch" that expanded game like 100 times similar like you guys did with ja2 1.13
If anybody heard/played tycoon deluxe in 90s then you can check out OpenTTD (if you haven't heard of it yet) All others are like trying to reinvent/modernize the chess without remotely understanding what makes a chess great for 100s of years.
Right now to me it looks like only people here at bear's pit seems to understand what makes JA2 and tactical game type great and expand on that. Re: Jagged Alliance Rage - First Gameplay
