you may wish that i do not
i want this to be "a-team" season 2. Yes I want this to be arulco in another region and I hope that ja3 comes even close to how bright and colorful arulco was.
long story short I disagree sorry champ.

Why not make the reticle's aiming circle represent the CtH, just like it is in JA2 v1.13, or sort of like it was in Phoenix Point?
i think i saw somebody else bring it up, reloecc. i wouldnt say thats smart.
chance to hit is already shown in ja3 its shown via the narrowness of the circle.
also in ja2 they had the bar to show cth wdym bud

if you mean stealth yeah and ifyou mean in general how battles are triggered also yeah.
it appears that the devs are going for a more crpg type philosophy, which im not against necessarily but in a crpg you can usually position yourself around an enemy force pretty easily, and then trigger combat.

oh and for some reason everybody thinks its a bad decision but here where there have already been numerous sock accusations. on steam theres 10 posts all saying not showing chance to hit is a bad idea, i come here, its the completely opposite situation, which is definitely enough to make one suspicios, especially with posts like Martins that sounda bit...shall we say fake?
-
thank you for sharing your opinion!
its wrong.the steam forums have unanimously agreed that not showing chance to hit was a drastic mistake and they have posts like "I dont think they are joking"
even the press that I think is sometimes very stupid has agreed that not showing hit percent was a mistake.
if the devs want to avoid "pixel hunting" which is fun and a good thing, they should implement mechanics like: having an extra cost to start running vs continuing running like in ja 2, they should avoid showing the full hit percent until you ADS and have a "look" type function which counts as a separate action and they should also spread the level out more so that moving tile by tile wouldnt make a difference
they should also ask why each tile has such a different percent to hit that people are "pixel hunting"
its not the job of the devs to tell us how to play their rpg correctly. this is like nanny type behaviour. "I dont like it that the userbaseis doing not what we intended and are having fun doing it". if theres such a huge difference in aim chance between tiles then maybe that should be investigated.
in any case I think this decision will go down in history as possibly one of the greatest trainwrecks to happen that you could see happening a mile off. the fact that they extended development to do it I hope ends up being correct becauseif you made a very bad move AND have taken extra development time to do it thats like catastrophic.
if this chance to hit situation ends up being bad this will be a titanic level disaster, and i mean the boat "titanic" not the adjective

automag was a really cool idea. a high calibre big pistol. developers could add a 10mm pistol or even a 357 one. deagles are probably too powerful completely unrealistic

agris sorry Im confused why did you respond to your own comment, did you get confused?
i saw some people claim there were some bots on this forum, i hope theyre wrong! 😉 -
hello quardak! are you new too? so many new faces...happy to see us all enjoying jagged alliance 😉
-
yes i would agree with this theres very little reason to not include "cth" type calculation.
-
sir please theres no need to yell at me
i hope you have a good day and can enjoy jagged alliance with me on this forum.

theres no need to be aggressive im just talking about my merc preference stuurminator
i didnt say that they had to developthe mercs before release, just throwing out ideas
-
hello! haha
-
livewire is saudi afaik
but devs should think about adding mercs who arent just "russian" maybe a balkan merc maybe a merc from a country thats in east europe but not russia maybe a swedish merc with a heavy accent who wears a lot of hunting gear in his bio is big into hunting
-
developers are from czech republic or bulgaria right. they should add a bulgarian merc. maybe hahahaha
"overworked programmer" haha. red bloodshot tired eyes glasses skinny frame drinks coffee and cigarettes has jittery mannerisms. a bit like madlab but more neurotic and tired.
can definitely be a character if not a merc.

Man, this forum turned into a dump rather quickly, because of a handful of trolls and "experts". I understand the devs not wanting to engage here at all during the first months.
"They made a mistake!" and "I'm disappointed" topics, seriously?
Anyway, to get back on topic:
Best dev diary so far. Everything from graphics to mechanics, direction and gameplay feel seems extremely professional and thought out. These are the only two things I care about, actually.
I love that the process led you to an unpopular decision and you made it anyway. I will choose the game a designer wanted to make over the game that most people "demanded", any day!
Машинки сте. Дано сте свикнали с гласовити скапаняци, повече от мен. Pardon my French...
i have a good idea for a merc i knowja devs never did a yugoslavic or balkan merc why not create one and he does stereotypically balkan things maybe has niko bellic type haircut maybe says things in a balkan language like ivan dolvich does
it would add a lot of character and balkan territory is a very rich ground for very specific characters. because balkans arent exactly east europe. maybe a polish merc too i know theres steroid but hes kind of americanized. i see a real really polish merc that has imperfect english constantly swears in polish. maybe a czech one as well.
most mercs in ja were either from latin america from east europe or first or second generation immigrants in america. hardly any asian mercs by the way. not saying that as a slight to developers or anything.
what are you guys talking about by the way?
-
hopefully a lot of mods get made!
-
a little color is ok but in some cases maybe enemies look a bit goofy
just my opinion
-
i hope there are some devs here would be great to talk to them see what their philosophy is like
-
whew a lot of people here upset about something hopefully they dont have a point
-
this looks like a good list i do somewhat agree that thespecial abilities feel a bit more xcom than ja
-
woah the forum is very active let me take a look around

Hey guys
I saw the stream and honestly I dont think chance to hit percentage should've been excluded
its kind of a mandatory requirement for RPGs now
No idea if youll see this or not But I really wouldve preferred for you guys to show it
Percentages on reticles (please let them at least be a toggled option!)

ja2 vanilla ja2 1.13...1.13 is pretty standard at this point may as well consider it an improvement on vanilla
