>>140816537
I actually find the metric shittonne of bugs and exploits more amusing than annoying. Getting away with a bunch of stupid shit before Wiz patches it is - dare I say - fun.
I mean, they're still shills who can't meet a deadline to save their lives, but I do like to laugh at their capering.
What's a "4x" game?
>>140817918
I learned from playing it. Just dont colonize anything under 60% unless its got a good resource, keep taxes below 20% until the population is near max, and get trade/resorts going. Small ports everywhere, I get 1m a year from them.

>>140818054
I'll save you some time that could be otherwise wasted on replying to shitposts.
It stands for "eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate". It's a genre of strategy gaming in which you do pretty much what those four words describe.
Civ is currently by far the most popular 4x series.

What the fuck is even Slavland? There are so many Slavic countries and Russia which is fucking gigantic is Slavic. You have to specify where you live. I also don't know how the economy in Slavic countries are
>>140818409
But I'm slavic as well.
.
>>140818518
> I also don't know how the economy in Slavic countries are
It's all literal second world over here.Not even slavic but I use the term slavland because my country is in Eastern Europe and is in similar circumstances to slavic countries
>>140818518
There's a self-hating romanian around here lurking, so probably him
>>140818595
Georgia? The first country that came to my mind
>>140818518
> I also don't know how the economy in Slavic countries are
Uniformly bad, which makes the details of the location largely irrelevant.
I feel bad for the Slavs. They get raped all the time defending the rest of Europe from the Asiatic hordes and all they get out of it is poverty and Soviet-quality concrete.
Tip-top women, though, so that's something.
Here is my income 4 months in. got an extra 1.2 mil from building ships for people.
Soooo the dynasty map of my ck2 game is fucked up, how bad is that going to effect the export to eu4?
like, will the whole world become two massive personal unions?
I rather not restart
>>140818663__Nope
>>140818813
>like, will the whole world become two massive personal unions?
No.
I did an export in a similar situation and everyone else from my family had gotten deposed by about 1500.
>>140818518
It's a catch all meme term for eastern europe.
>I also don't know how the economy in Slavic countries are
The fact that you'd to need to work three months to amass the humongous sum of 1000 $ to get yourself a decent gaming PC(prices of electronics are actually more expenisve here) should be enough of a indicator.

>>140820429
It's a meme.
Just because it begins 4x-ey doesn't mean it doesn't become /gsg/ once the majority of stars are settled.
It's more of a mixed breed, but I don't see why it shouldn't belong here. Colonization was a thing in Vic2 and EUIV too.
>>140820762
It's not historical, fuck off.
>>140820840

>>140820840
/gsg/ games aren't exclusively historical either. See: Distant Worlds, AuroraEvery other game once you unpause
I'm getting real tired of this twitch persona worship, lads.
Can't you fuck off somewhere else with that shit, like /v/?
>>140820429
4Xs generally are shallow, mostly in diplomacy. And they have a winning condition.
GS and 4X can be similar, as GS is not really that well defined. Take HoI and CK2 for example.
Rate?
>>140820429
In theory because you have no end objective.
EU4 actually falls into it, in my opinion, because it became map painting simulator. But still, you can still play it like "I will unify Italy" and stop there, without invanding France / Germany / Balkans, while in Civ if you do that you are doomed.
CK2 is even less 4x, yes you can paint the map, but that is secondary. Calling CK2 4x is like calling Warband 4x because you can expand and etc.
Anyway, 4x is a shit, boring genre, and the best 4x games are good because of stuff that is out of the 4x scope (Like Alpha Centauri)
>>140820938
And no one plays those shit games, thank god.
Honestly, I don't see the point in playing anything other than Victoria II.

Yeah, sad about Portugal. Still waiting on ally Castile to go after rightful Hispanian clay.
Should mention I'm EMPRAH and am ready to form Netherlands as soon as I peace out with Burgundy. Unfortunately, looks like I'll have to settle for just Ghent for now, as taking all of Flanders will earn me a xboxhueg coalition...wondering if I shouldn't just force-release Flanders and vassal them later (as Kingdom of Netherlands).
If I go Dutch Republic I lose the HRE right? Think I'll keep roleplaying as monarchist for now.

dont buy more ships, early game bring your tax down, pay off pirates by checking diplomacy and pick when its cheap. Get 10 exporers and 5 construction ships and build a large port. The port protects your colony and everything else can be rebuilt/can escape. Just get the high speed railguns at 960k before buying anything, those shread through anything but silver mist and higher tech ships. Then just build colonies, bump your capitals tax up, and wait until you have multiple 2000m colonies you can tax before doing anything. If you spam colonies and are near other empires then you can get shit loads of cash off spaceports/trade to speed up research before you war everything. Only very hard is somewhat hard since diplomacy is impossible.

What do you fucking think?
>>140828668shitfact: In EU4 the only Jewish region at the start of the game is in Ethiopia and you could theoretically play a jewish superpower if you let jewish rebels convert enough provinces to make your primary religion jewish.
>>140828778
I dont play Europe, but I hope it isnt Austria. You make it sound like it is though, Burgundy is purple.
