Only just realised they did a steam a few days ago, about an hour long.. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1886492048 patch 1.03 dropping later this week, early next week. balance patch. things they mentioned: - mines will deplete more slowly and will only deplete to 50% on the easiest difficulty level. mines will also show 'deposit size' (how much is left) - time will increase between guard post attacks on the easiest difficulty level. - boat from Ernie island will take credit if you run out of money, so you can always leave the starting island - the good place scripting issue will be fixed (enemies were sticking to one place - not moving, apparently) - machine guns are getting a nerf/fix, reducing damage slightly, fixed issue with aiming (it was too good), overwatch will change so it only works based on your remaining action points (so fewer attacks potentially) - you still get overwatch attacks, but not as many as before which was always set to max - black/gun powder drops will increase - explosion damage was wrong, the formula was adding an extra 30%, so all explosions (including Barry's shaped charges) will be nerfed - grenade launchers and RPGs accuracy will be nerfed, as the mishap chance will depend on range and explosives skill (also applies to enemies) also mentioned: - the soundtrack is out on Spotify - future patches will look at money sinks, parts and meds drops - 1st big patch will be mid August (including fixes and modding tool) - 2nd modding tool update will include a map editor - inventory changes coming much later - no plan to introduce 5.45mm No need to start a new game for this patch.

Is there a mod for sorting inventory yet?

Why don’t mercs get more expensive as they level up? I’ve had Barry since day and I’m pretty sure he still costs the same, despite being level 5 now.

Oh sure, and I bet you want us to rtfm too? 😂

This 💯!

Also, learned that if you move a merc from one team to another and they're not in the same sector the game will ask you if you want them to travel..

and it is awesome! my three teams are scrambling across the map to counter.. having so much fun!!

Ah thanks. You'd think mech would result in better salvage and med would result in better herbs.

Does it matter what merc you use for salvage, is there anything that increases the amount of salvage you get? Mech doesn't seem to.

Yeah autosaves are overwritten.

Thank you for this game, I'm really enjoying it. Played the original when I was 20, JA2 when I was 24 (and then for another 10 years at least) and now, at nearly 50, I get to enjoy the franchise all over again.

Just did N-Night and it was great fun - even lost one of the main supporters which means I no longer have access to her stuff.

Tl;dr

Some here, for example: https://www.altchar.com/guides/jagged-alliance-3-how-to-get-gunpowder-aZ04r0l7ZekW

Like how the menu screen actually features the mercs in your squad, just sitting around looking at the landscape.. love it

where/when does the gunpowder start to drop properly, only have about 7 at the moment..

I agree, the game is tough, but that makes those wins all the more rewarding.

Curious to know what little things I might have missed in the sectors I’ve already explored.

Nice one!

Yes and discovered today that if you auto resolve combat - ie you let the militia handle it and don’t get involved - then that’s where you’ll find any loot from the baddies.

No, ignore that post please, it’s entitled whining.

I feel sorry for the dev who has to read through all this entitled ‘I want’ and ‘this is not good enough’ crap. I’m 20 hours in and very much enjoying myself, and this game will only get better over time, just like JA2 did with 1.13. It’s not even been out a week, give it some time people, stop asking for a 1.13 clone, and start enjoying this new generation of JA, otherwise there won’t be a JA4! It’s only taken 24 years to get this one. Be grateful that we finally have a new JA worth playing.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. Personally I think it’s great, enjoying it and having a lot of fun.

It really is a beautiful map, each location is detailed, interesting to explore and graphically great to look at. Thank you devs!

Update: started another new game but renamed the save from Hot Diamonds to something else. Working again now.
