Paradox Interactive Thread: V3 'Check out my sick Germany blob' - Games

Legitimacy, monarch points, power projection.

I'd like to see more flavour events for nuking cities in HOI4.

And for nuking non-city troop concentrations.

And population drops

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;50960230]And population drops[/QUOTE] Well Paradox would never allow that officially, it would need to be a mod.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;50960305]Well Paradox would never allow that officially, it would need to be a mod.[/QUOTE] Kinda lame imo because we're allowed to pillage, execute and torture in CK2 and "convert culture" and "hunt natives" in EUIV

[QUOTE=Tuskin;50960182]I'd like to see more flavour events for nuking cities in HOI4.[/QUOTE] It'll be in ICF once I'm done most of the occupation ones.

I usually play EU3 on my laptop while doing laundry because it runs anything newer like shit. Decided to play EU3+ for the first time in a while, only to be reminded as to why I never really got into the mod. It's an alt-history mod Wiz made except it's "balanced" to be a "challenge". This "challenge" pretty much just amounts to the AI shitting out an endless stream of mercenary armies. I'd destroy several stacks only for another several stacks to swarm out of the woodwork while I'm attempting to siege anything. I like the scenario but goddamn actually playing is such a ballache. I guess it's telling when pretty much every mod that attempts to make older Pdox titles "hard" just sorta do so by letting the AI just shit out more units than the player ever could. HoI 2 had a mod where the game would literally just spawn a shitload of units whenever the AI was losing badly enough.

Fuck, missed the sale on CK2 Also why is the full price for all the dlc so expensive? Is it really worth that much?

[QUOTE=General;50962536]Fuck, missed the sale on CK2 Also why is the full price for all the dlc so expensive? Is it really worth that much?[/QUOTE] Short answer: No. Long answer: They make the game much more alive and full, but at the same time the price scale is fucking ludicrous for the model they have of constant DLC patching up the game to a fullish experience. Most recent DLC was most reasonable price for a while for the most content in a while.

I got Conclave and Reaper's Due and went back to playing my 400 year long Yemeni Empire game. Now for some reason, they updated it so I can't imprison decadent family members without receiving tyranny unless I personally straighten them up. Prior to getting these DLC, my vassals would 95% of the time try to straighten them up for me and if it failed I got the option to imprison without tyranny. Now, unless I straighten up personally and lose 100 piety, fail, and select invoke tafkir instead of "I am a better negotiator than this" or another skill base re-roll, I have to take 10 tyranny to imprison. I get about 4 decadent family members per month due to the size of my family and that means tyranny and decadence is skyrocketing. Grr.

Wow they really turned CK2 around with this latest DLC/patch.

The performance on the new CK2 patch has been excellent. Once CK2+ updates, I'll definitely be sinking a lot more hours.

DD on Fallen Empire changes [url]https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads%2Fstellaris-dev-diary-43-the-fallen.965642%2F[/url]

Is it worth getting Hearts of Iron IV or Stellaris at this point?

Stellaris is very cool, needs a little more content but the devs have been working on it MAJORLY and clearly care about it and neat stuff/changes the community wants are coming out constantly HoI is probably a steer-clear right now, game is way unfinished and shallow

Paradox are starting a new big developer MP game in EU4 in 7 minutes. [url]https://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive[/url] They can get pretty insane if you haven't watched any of them before

Early mongols are fucking retardedly strong

[t]http://i.imgur.com/JnKapJm.jpg[/t] what happened

Does anybody else have a bug in Stellaris where if you wish to select a city appearance, it selects the one to the right? I can't select mammalian and molluscoid [editline]1st September 2016[/editline] Also, still can't load old sessions in CK2 TRD, can only start new ones

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;50980919]Early mongols are fucking retardedly strong[/QUOTE] I'm guessing they didn't scale their tech.
