I once played and invaded Eastern Europe, got an event saying NATO was intervening, the issue was that i conquered them so fast that NATO couldn't do anything at all. I Also do wish Nukes had a bit more weight to them, both in regards to Diplomatic ramifications, acquiring them and of course when you actually use them, but thats also sadly due to the limited nature of Nukes with HOI4 at the moment.
Big ask when the core game is broken and the AI can't play it.
Same. I played as hardliner Soviet Union, and there's a good pacing with the events (even if I would argue that there's a bit too many in the initial tree) and the usual army-building from vanilla, as well as options to actually use said large army, because as the hardliners you can go to war aganist both NATO and China, and neither of them are pushovers. With a more dynamic economic interface (something similar to what CWIC does mixed with the TNO GDP metrics could be good), a more Windows XP-inspired UI, and a a diplomacy focus tree for the soviets, it could become a great mod. Hope that they manage to implement all the content before HOI5 releases (or that modding in HOI5 is not so radically different from modding in HOI4 that they manage to recycle some of the code)
Pretty sure it's still gonna be a long while before HOI 5 as Paradox still needs to put out EU V before that
Seeing how long modern HOI4 modding takes, I wouldn't be so sure. I'd say that 2028 is more or less the year when HOI5 will released. They swear that Project Caesar isn't exactly EUV, and even if that's true it will be EUIV's replacement either way, and that game seems to be developing rapidly. There's also the fact that HOI4 is more than 8-years-old, and I can't see a game so unoptimized as HOI4 lasting 8 more years
EU4 got ten years before Project Caesar was announced and Stellaris, which has probably had the most optimization issues (and improvements) of any PDX game is in its seventh year and still going strong. As long as Paradox has countries to make focus trees for I expect them to keep milking HOI4 for everything they can.
The new HOI4 DLCs are getting worse and worse reviews, and there hasn't been any large patches recently either. The game is nowhere near its end, but its going throught slow period, that's for sure
The old world Blues mod is actually good an equestria at war
I played the pat buchanan path in the mod and found it pretty unpolished, you can invade afghanistan and withdraw after defeating the talibans with just minus 1700 political power as a debuff
Haha don't worry my level of butthurt comes from being a big fan.
If Eritrea holds until the end of May, then they win by default. It is represented as a national spirit that Ethiopia has, it's called "spring campaign" or something like that
Road to 56 is a fine vanilla+ mod.
