forming communist megagermany in vicky2 and then trying to prop up revolutions in britain and france resulting in 80 million dead europeans is probably the most fun i've had in a paradox game

Tankbuster posted:Can't play as the North Koreans. Boy I sure love destroying T-34 85s with my K1 mbts. you might be thinking of the first campaign which is extremely similar. 2nd korean war has you overthrow communism in the DPRK, PRC, and USSR in 20 turns of combat on the korean pennisula lmao but everybody has end tier tanks in it

i say swears online posted:the best (but most tedious) governments in vicky 1 are socialist or communist, depending on country and military affinity. precious metal is a resource for upgrading units but iunno if it has a direct result on money supply compared to other resources same for vicky2. you won't get a better economy going than under communism but the cost is your sanity and soul

cluster bombers are probably the better choice for massed armored formations, the anti-tank missiles are for like the 150+ super tanks

fwiw I’m half working on a mod to get the hoi4 AI to concentrate divisions in states where it has a marginal superiority so perhaps it’ll be able to offer a rudimentary challenge someday

oscarthewilde posted:also props to the TNO team i guess. All those weird little minigames might be unbalanced and held together by tape, and some writers and designers are clearly more competent than others, it's at least more fun and interesting than playing WW2 for the 71st time against an AI that still doesn't know how to invade another country. paradox's AI and AI code is so bad actually just their code in general because its only documented by random modders that feel like posting on the respective game wiki hoi4's expert AI is such a disappointment because all it does it make the AI build better divisions/ships

the hardest bonus in expert AI is giving germany any production output bonus because they will proceed to build 20,000 fighters by barbarossa which the allied AI will of course, do nothing about

Mans posted:HoI2 sorta had this in that each country had a series of companies which were responsible for research so Germany was really good at chemistry and tanks while the British had fantastic airplane industries and smaller nations had less developed research companies with maybe one or two specialized ones. also when you annexed a country you got all their research teams so you could become a tech juggernaut by endgame

BadOptics posted:I still haven't summoned the "give a poo poo about X game" to try out the DLC. Another boring designer that's basically been min-maxed already (and was broken on launch!!!), Switzerland focus tree (big loving woop), Ethiopia seems interesting then you remember that Africa in HoI is pain. The only thing kinda good about it is the Italian tree, but meh. also the dlc broke like everything lol. carriers were completely useless for the past month, half the Swiss focuses didn’t work properly (although who cares about the Swiss in hoi4), and the ai( particularly the Soviets) got even worse

Zeppelin Insanity posted:What the hell kind of game did you guys play where the Germans were overpowered, because it definitely wasn't Company of Heroes 1 multiplayer. The balance overall was decent, but Americans were the real overpowered standout, by far. Massed riflemen were drat hard to beat, and they also had cheap Shermans and Calliopes that didn't cost fuel. default coh yes, the introduction of the panzer elite definitely tipped the balance back to the germans tho
