There is one on near the coast (if not on it) and yep that was my first destination. Now I just got a message that it will deplete in coming days, but I have one more mine already (and some 120K saved up) so I am not too worried.
Damn, I assumed the mines were just a permanent source of income. My plan was to eventually set up 2 different squads of 5-6 mercs each and then send them out in different directions to cover more ground, but now I feel like you would run out of money quick if you tried that strategy.

In JA2 silver mines depleting was a random event.
In JA3, does each mine have a fixed amount of diamond income before it runs out? Or were you just unlucky with a random event?

What a nice surprise! I'll definitely buy it once I clear my backlog.

I seen the trailer and it looks really interesting.
I've seen some ppl say its very "different" from JA2, if you've played enough JA3 what do you think? Is it so different?

No idea but I would guess every mine probably depletes eventually. But there are other sources of money (stopping diamond convoys, hacking, finding various gemstones, quests).
It is more similar than it is different. The differences in mechanics are not huge. But JA3 is fully 3D and has vastly bigger focus on quests and storytelling, that's the biggest difference.

THQ Nordic is a publisher to watch.
I can see them becoming a heavy hitter at some point. They seem smart and calculated with the projects they're getting behind. All they need is that one banger to really put them over.
I think they have some type of presentation in August.
AITD is my most anticipated game of 2023 and the new Outcast looks cool too.

I spent my gaming time in the last two weeks mostly playing this and I have to say I freaking love it.
It took 25 years but finally a worthy sequel to an all-timer classic.
I'm particularly impressed with environmental destruction. It's basically as good as the one in the old Silent Storm, which was the golden standard in the genre, and yet they barely ever bragged about it in the promotional material.
STILL
It doesn't come without problems and I think the developers will need to stay true to their recent promise and show this one some post-release support, because it's in dire need to some rebalance in few areas.
There are several minor problems, all eventually fixable with relative ease IF recognized by the devs, but the major one is that the approach "sniper rifles for everyone" at the moment is WAY too efficient.
It's the one that does the most damage per round, that works better both at short and long range AND that consumes the least amount of bullets (which can be a valuable and rare resource here, depending on the playstyle).

I wasn't aware, this is the one that came up with the search. I'll copy my post there.
