guys i'm getting seriously addicted by this game... like i was of jagged alliance series.
it's what JA3 should be. 3d world, sandbox with main quest, side quests and 2 factions to work for, TONS of guns..
the gameplay is slightly different. there arent action points, but there is a pause system (a la KotOR) but with timescale instead. example, to get a weapon in aiming position, you need say 1.34 seconds depending on stats, weight, balance, merc stats, position, adrenaline level etc...
i don't have much time now to give a long and complete review... i just say GET IT, install the blue sun mod 1.8, play it to death. this blue sun mod is something like a really big mod fixing bugs, adding stuff, quests, mercs...
definately worth a try.
