Whilst that may not sound bad at first, it only takes a few missions of trying to remember where every last enemy was to realise this is quite the laborious task. If you wish to rid the enemies of their valuable resources, players must track down every single enemy killed throughout a mission and head back to loot the pockets of each one individually. Done at the end of every mission after you’ve wiped out the enemy, this is possibly one of the most meticulous and drawn out processes of all as there is no quick way to do it.
For me this was the biggest part of Rage that I struggled to find enjoyment from, simply due to the fact that so much time is spent in the inventory that it feels like more of a key feature of the game rather than the mission at hand. That may sound like a simple thing to manage, but it is just one of the many countless things you’ll need to manage and maintain during each mission, all while eliminating each and every enemy along the way.īesides who to move and where to move them to being a big part of how you play Jagged Alliance: Rage, you’ll also need to become the fount of all knowledge when it comes to your inventory – managing it meticulously during each mission is a must. Equally though, should you simply throw him out into combat and forget about him, you’ll find yourself running through bandages more than the entire team run through water, or worse still he’ll wind up dead. However, he is a great character for causing a distraction thanks to the fact he can take on, and deal out, a shed load of damage – provided you’ve got him stocked up on alcohol – meaning he can often be utilised as bait whilst you get the rest of your team in position. For example my personal favourite – Ivan Dolvich – is the odd member of the team due his inescapable size and gung-ho nature. To ensure the best chance of success though, you’ll need to make the most of the mercenaries within your team.Įach of the mercs that you’ll be playing with feel unique and come with their own personal traits, favourite weapon types and distinct strengths and weaknesses to take note of. That’s because with Jagged Alliance: Rage being a turn-based strategy game, every action you make in the heat of battle can lead to a negative consequence although equally it could also be the key change to winning the battle. Each of the missions are filled with an overbearing and villainous enemy presence, and should you head into each mission waving your guns around, forgetting to stick to the bushes, then you’ll immediately find your underprepared squad being gunned down. You see, Rage is a long and testing experience and if you play the game the way it’s meant to be taken in, then chances are you’re going to forget most of the story anyway, slugging away for hours in the heat of combat with patience and perseverance.Īt the start of each mission, players begin with their squad of mercenaries and a brand new location. During my time with Jagged Alliance: Rage I learnt many things, but the first thing that became clear was to take each and every mission as they come and put the campaign story to the back of my mind.
