Haven't played much yet since the game refuses to run on my notebook and so I can only play if I have the desktop nearby... But still, I've managed to play trough day 1 and conquered the starting sector (bought a pass and killed all the Marauders gang), then conquered the Roadblock, then the Dam then the Safari and for last the North Base. Hired Guns is really lacking very much if compared to JA2, it feels like a very unfinished game but with all the ingrediants to have been an awsome JA successor, it's really a shame... But still, it is without any doubt the only game that offered me the JA feeling since JA2 and it's still very fun and ejoyable. I played Brigade E5 and for me it sucked because the background management lacks compared to JA and especially because I hate Smart Pause system, for me it must be true turn-based. Already tried 7.62mm with English Mod and although much better than E5 it still uses SPM so it ain't for me. Silent Storm was nice to play tactic wise, but it totally misses the JA merc and sector management which are essential features for me. Bad thing is Hired Guns is bugged and incomplete... but it still is the closest we got to JA since JA2... Good thing is it is fun to play, hard, has several diferent possible approaches, and it's totally modable, so I'm certainly going to finish it more than once. Estimating from the time it takes to finish each sector and manage everything in between fights, I would say you have several months of pleasent gameplay unless you play 24/7 :) All that matters is I'm enjoying the game very much, so for me it was definitly worth buying.
