The story aspect of the game is characterized by a series of missions that, while varied in objectives and locations, often feel linear and lack significant tactical depth. Players note that the missions can be repetitive and sometimes frustrating due to server issues, but there is a decent amount of content and replayability, especially as the difficulty and AI quality improve over time. Overall, the narrative experience is described as entertaining but marred by technical problems and a lack of strategic complexity.
“I won't get into the missions, mainly because it's been so long since I've gone through all of them; however, they were all generally interesting and had a decent amount of replayability.”
“There are plenty of missions in a variety of locations.”
“For long-time Jagged Alliance fans, this is more similar to JA: Deadly Games than JA1 or JA2 due to its mission-based approach.”
“Missions are totally boring one-way maps, with a very odd storyline. You have to complete them in a specific order, and there are no tactical options at all.”
“PVE missions are weird... merc outfits chasing cheating husbands and biker gangs?”
“Very linear missions.”
