I think I'm just going to wait a bit longer until it's out in the regular shops. I really don't fancy online purchases from a company I've never heard of.

Well i already "got it" and i'm playing now. Do i have a premiere here as the first Wildfire playing Dutchie or what Wink Untill now UC is still beating Wildfire on all fronts. But maybe there are some positive remarks later on.

To give an example of a big WTF!? During the first cutscene (the one where you leave Omerta and Elliot informs Deidranna of your arrival) Elliot isn't there (in the cutscene) So basically you will have Deidranna and Elliot talking and Deidranna will slap Elliot...but there's no Elliot Very Happy so she's slapping in mid-air...

Also i remember someone commenting the wrong use of English by looking at a screenshot in the inventory screen and seeing the word Hospital to what was suggested to be the large Medikit. Well guess what? It's a inflatable hospital and this sucker weighs 55 lbs or something. Carrying it means you will be around 60% of your weight without armor and weapons. :bawling:

Hmmm...
Maybe I'm NOT so eager to buy wildfire right away.
Perchance, does it come with UB?

@Mr. Headshot

I think Linx was refering to me about the warez stuff (I might have posted a little too much info!)

Apologies to all but WF ain't bad but nowhere close to the realms of UC and that is not me being biased, just objective!

Guys, if any of you pick up the retail version, please let us know if the source is indeed included. I'm not going to buy Wildfire only to find out that it's only a small mod for JA2 and nothing else.

I have confirmation from Kelly Elkins of the SF PR Team:

[QUOTE] Hi Phillip,

The source code for Jagged Alliance 2 can be found on the JA 2 CD in the retail box of Jagged Alliance 2: Wildfire that is now available in retail stores in North America.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you, [QUOTE]

So there you have it guys!

I just got Wildfire and yes the Source code is there and it uses JA2 1.10. This means much tougher A.I. as well as the cover display and LoS display keys. So far it's very tough, even on Beginner mode. The maps are very well done, IMO, and the tall grass everywhere does seem to allow you to hide a bit better and sneak a bit closer to enemies. I think the weapon damage is a bit high now, though my mercs are in pretty poor armor so far so I'm waiting to make final judgement on that score.

Who every didn't have Elliot show up in the first move may have the warez of an earlier beta, as has been mentioned in another thread. Or if you have a rip the rippers may have broken something because the movies work fine in my version.

Other than that, for 20$ it's a cheap deal especially with the source code. I haven't played the original campaign in a while so it's not bad to go back, especially with the changes to all the sectors making the actual combat different, even if the story line is basically the same.

Getting money to keep your mercs is a pain though. I screwed up, it seems, by going for Drassen right off the bat. It was a tough fight with some nice gear as a reward but cost me down time and I can't get the mine into production so I'm running out of money to pay my mercs so I plan to restart and read my email more carefully this time.

@Faeyd

No matter, getting your mercs paid is gonna be tricky. I followed my orders by E-mail, but Chitzena Mine will give you about $2000 with 45% loyalty in the town. I'm hightailing to Drassen now, but i had to fire Scope already ($30.000 a week) and i'm having a hard time keeping Trevor with me just by giving him day-contracts of $4200 untill i run out of money, cuz i sure as hell can't cough up the $24.000 for an entire week...

Evidently it's out but the store where I buy my games doesn't have it :bawling:

Well, game-wise, it doesn't sound like I'm missing much...

I guess I'll just have to content myself with UC for now (maybe they'll re-release UB)

I am almost done with my first pass at Wildfire and frankly, it's a great mod. It's through (great new weapons - abakan rulez, some new art) and true to it's roots. If you can, (I'm sure you have stopped looking at this thread) check it out.
