I appreciate all your hard work that went into making this overhaul modpack. It's really a testament to a great game that I'm back again to enjoy this 20+ years old title that I actually still own on a CD I have somewhere. The atmosphere of the game is at least still intact and not butchered as in the sequel attempts. And with the new and improved level design and new content and mercs there's so much fun to be had, again.

The only thing I'm afraid of is a balance spike like the person above describes, I've had it in Wildfire and that cut the fun short real fast. And my mercs are such crap, I don't believe they will be able to hold out for long.


Also it got me reading about the tumultuous history of the IP being revived for a sequel. All those games appear to need modding to be enjoyable, and although they might appeal to some people, all of them fail to capture the same atmosphere as the original.

It kinda makes me think there's no hope for a true JA3 with the IP sitting with one developer somewhere. If you already know that one team's limited resources aren't going to cover the entire scope of the game, and that you're going to need the modding community to back things up, you might as well just create solid foundations for the game to run on and the community to build on. With a solid art director at the helm to steer the atmosphere in the same direction in the original. And developers that can build something in a way that it's extensible and scalable. Then just carbon copy the same mechanics from JA2 into a new engine, release modding tools and from there just build the whole thing together.

Anyway it's okay to dream. So I'll just thank you again for your great work for keeping the game alive!
