New "Jagged Alliance" or similar game?

[moscal]

In speculation we should know, that Romero also worked on the project "JA". So maybe this will be new JA or smiliar game?

IMO this should be good option. Current we haven't many tactical game in style JA

Fully prepared to open myself up for disappointment but I'm really hoping it's something along the lines of JA2.

John Romero has worked on a ton of titles, being one of the founders of iD software back in the day, designer of Doom, Quake and the like.

According to the Community Manager, they are developing a strategy game. That really wasn't on my list of guesses (at least not very high up)

John Romero's wife Brenda (also a game designer) did some writing on the Jagged Alliance series back in the day, but was more involved in the "Wizardry" series of RPG's (also developed by Sir-Tech, same company that made Jagged Alliance).

The two games that "Romero Games" has released this far has both been mobile games, which does not really lead to suggesting that this might be a game in the Jagged Alliance / X-com mold.. but we'll see

Jagged Alliance
think firefly
you captain of your own merc troop like battlebrothers or battletech in the future on a backwater planet.
First make a solid foundation of a game then you could dlc the shit out of it
- new enemy - new weapons - new tool - exoarmor - aliens - roboter

would probaply sell rly well.

or you go postapocalyptic and you warband fight for controll over areas.


A god game where you influence the world via agents that would be rly cool. There are some games like that in " Development". the description of those games on kickstarter sound always great. But they alwasy die in the development phase. u can lookup that which sleeps. Great premise, great stuff what the developers say. Just release date was 2015 and we have 2019 and no game.
The last survivor of that genre that i know is worlds bane.

Nothing I've head so far about it indicated that this was off the table...
