Hey Guys!

Does anyone have a rough (or exact^^) idea how much Jagged Alliance 2 (or the first part) cost to develop? Did any info about the budgets get released? I'd really like to have a rough idea how much it cost to make the game and also if it would be cheaper today (with advanced gizmos and whatnot).

Appreciate your input...

Even the devs have no idea what the budget was after all those years. 4M is sometimes quoted for JA2, but apparently too high. Then there's Ian's 3M for JA3 but that's about it for hard numbers.

Okay... thank you! The reason why I was asking is that I was one of the fools to back Shadowrun Returns on Kickstarter. In the end they got 1.8M$ after originally asking for 400k$ to develop a "tactical game like XCOM in the Shadowrun universe". Now the game is a load of crap just about good enough for an android game and everyone is saying: Well, they only had 1.8M$... that's why I wanted to compare that to JA2, which even in Vanilla was an outstanding game.
