I should add I don't mean complete casuals. I mean people who can already handle games like eu4 and ck2. hoi4 is casualized for those audiences, not for the mass market.
>>
>>145491810
The mechanics for HoI4 haven't changed terribly. They finally got rid of the useless espionage tab, and cleaned up the interface. They also did away with the ridiculous mechanic of having to form armies>corps>groups>divisions which was annoying. you also don't have to set up your own fronts and create your own fall back points. Now you just tell them what you want them to do and the AI is (seemingly) more intuitive. You can control divisions individually for some maneuvers like routing. So far I'm liking HoI4 the best though.

I'm not a casual and I didn't get into HoI3 either. I can play it competently and had a few campaigns as axis powers, it's just not interesting.

You had to do alot of the same stuff in three though for air support, which was annoying as fuck. I think the air mechanic of created a wing with as many planes as you actually want is fantastic compared to 3 where you could only have 100 planes in a wing. That was stupid. I like the air combat mechanic because I can keep planes in reserve to fill my existing divisions so if I need to shift my production focus I can and just count on having 400 or so planes in reserve until I start taking losses. I also only fly missions in the day time for more damage. Taking an "All Weather Specialist" is essential if you do CAS.

Honestly the production is cool, i like the unit designer. Except for the retarded points you have to use to design shit that is retarded and is just some artificial barrier that makes no sense. At the end of the day HOI3 is just so much better at combat, the way i like it anyways. Nice encirclements, combat depth and just that strategic planning that is great.

Feels much more rewarding then HOI4. Theirs some good features in HOI4 but at the end of the day the combat is god awful and you are almost forced to use the meme arrow offensives.

Hey guys. This is my first HPM campaign as Persia. It has been decent up until now, but there are 2 things I'd like to address.

1. I conquered a state from Afghanistan. It has a lot of Persians and Hazars (i think?), so I expected that everything should run smoothly. However, I noticed that it's administration effectiveness was at 0%. I tried encouraging some bureaucrats for some month, and while their number increased, administration remained at 0% What gives? Also WHY THE FUCK DO PERSIANS AND HAZARS GET "NATIONALISM" AGAINST ME EVEN THOUGH I AM THEIR CULTURAL KIN AND I LIBERATED THEM.
pic very much related

2. Shouldn't Persia get the event about the Kurdish unification incident? I was too occupied fighting in the east and I didn't even notice that my puppets were gone. I actually realized it by reading the newspaper about an Ottoman war. This is bullshit, giving you an event is essential for both gameplay reasons and flavor.

Mission efficiency is affected by doctrines and reliability more than any other mechanic in 4. Protip: Always make your first variant a reliability upgrade. You'll get higher mission efficiency due to reliability more than air combat from weapons or engines.

Given that you are a physically inferior modern human that had his body pumped full of all kinds of wacky hormones from an early age and you have never, in your entire life, known any form of physical labor I can see why actual work might seem "back breaking" to you.

>Except for the retarded points you have to use to design shit that is retarded and is just some artificial barrier
This very same artificial barrier existed in HoI3 as far as variant creation was concerned. You had to research better engines, weapons, etc to utilize them on your planes or ships. In HoI4 this system is detached from the research tree.

It's fundamentally the same thing. Spend time to get better weapons. One difference is that HoI4 requires you to use your equipment while in HoI3 you could just have it mothballed.

If you play as Japan it definitely screws you in Manchuria. The Manchurian airbase it lolcow useless, so you end up having to launch missions with tactical bombers from the mainland of Japan.

What the fuck is wrong with hoi4.
It's January the 1st 1941. Playing as Belgium. I kept at bay the wehrmacht for a whole year, even after both france and nl fell. All I had to do was going neutral brench, building 3 level forts in my provinces and stack the few divisions belgium can make.
AND, instead of fucking helping me, UK and france just kept throwing men worthlessly in Liguria and Latium. They lost nearly 400,000 men in endless, worthless, looped invasions.
Not to mention that Germany threw in total nearly 2 milion men in the benelux area without being able to conquer it.

As I said, this game is broken as shit

I didn't even this could happen. Because Poland created Intermarium they were in their own faction and UK and France, despite allying each other in 36, never guaranteed Poland. So now Germany is at war with Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia but not at war with France or the UK.

Axis literally have to start the war. National Focuses aren't really focuses, they're high level AI scripting. If nothing happens for 5 or 6 years eventually one of the countries with focuses (AI scripting) to go to war will choose those and go to war.

It doesn't simulate economy whatsoever so no. But it would be cool if there was a random chance for Hitler to get couped the longer he delayed war so that if you haven't declared war by ~41 or 42 you get shot.

Alright I have been putting this off for the entire time you've been doing this, over a month now, atleast. I am really fucking annoyed by this meme. HPM is a great mod, by far the greatest grand strategy mod of all time, in no other mod can you manage Your Boer republics, railroaded US politics, Independent wallonia and Chinese treaty ports at the same time. HPM takes every element of every mod and makes it great. Your pathetic fucking flag/modern day/zombie/insert single issue mod simply can't compete. I've tried playing them, believe me. They are pathetic. You play them and you only have to manage one, maybe, two things. Hah, what is this mess? It's a botched job. A complete write off. And sure, if you like that sort of purile simplistic shit then more power too you, it's not my job to kick down your sandcastle. But why must I spend my time arguing this with you? Just because HPM is too complex for you doesn't mean it is for everyone. And when challenged you crawl back into your same abhorrent memery, because that's all this is, you don't have the slightest clue what you're saying or who you're messing with, because if you did you'd stop. Go back to playing your austrian buff mod, little man, because this general belongs to us. The true strategy gamers. Not your lame, disgusting casual shit. And you know the worst part? We can't even meme back. Hell, I'm sure there's some really overpowered trade good in robmod, but we can't say "hurr durr horse factories" or whatever because the simple fact is nobody has played your favoured mod since vickymod, back before they orientated it around multiplayer for people like you. So well done, my friend, you made an intellectual HPM fan MAD. You've achieved your greatest feat since you formed grossiberiums, mark this on your wall as a victory for your abysmal existence because I can tell you now, kiddo, this is your peak.
