>>1775453
>Do you people think Hearts of iron 4 is a good game for dicking around with history?
i dont know about HOI4, but HOI3 was fun to dick around with

theres no greater banter feeling than making insane alliances and occupying Berlin as Poland/Czechoslovakia/Finland/Norway

the funnest banter was fucking Germany ad Poland, the most satisfying was occupying almost half of Germany as Norway with a puppet state in Denmark

>>1775511
HoI 3 occasionally gets hate for being too much micromanagement especially with the HQ breakdown, I like it. But I prefer HoI 2/Darkest Hour, for the insane amounts of interesting countries you can release as puppets. HoI IV seems really dumbed down and streamlined but I actually like the idea of being able to pursue different foreign policies, get so sick of being stuck fighting the same countries as Germany

>>1775453
HoI3 is a far better wargame, but HoI4 is more fun. Honestly, I'm shelving HoY until the new patch/expac drops because when they fixed the AI they just made it dumber.

>>1775453
am I the only one who thinks the map is ugly and don't feel comfortable with resource production ?

Johan needs to fix his broken game.

Americans are completely unable to launch a good amphibious landing.

If you play as Germany and don't act fast enough you'll get sucked into a stalemate in the mid 40s. You can't invade England because their navy and air force are too powerful, but nobody can invade you either because Stalin is a retard and the allies can't do beach landings.

>>1775493
I just picked it because it was an interesting map. Personally, I hope to someday recreate the Finnish empire pre-Hyper War for future shitposting potential.

If HoI IV is the most dumbed down and casualised, I think it's the game for me, just cbf learning how to play 2 again, n9 time and no will, but still want a bit of the action.

>>1775453
The question is, do you find it fun, OP?

i absolutely do not understand the battle mechanics of this game, in the tutorial you just roll over ethiopia no problem, but when you fight an actually equipped opponent, i dont know what to do, as france my units just sit there fighting till they give in and i instantly collapse, im used to the defeat/retreat mechanics of EU4, but here i dont get the larger flow of winning/losing and i dont know how fast i want the speed to go to observe a battle

There's a lot of things that go into it. Like all paradox games, it's simultaneously simple but complex. In all likelihood, your division comp is fucked and your supply is messed the fuck up too. Italy isn't a very good tutorial nation after you fuck up Ethiopia as they have a 5 front fight ahead of them (France, Yugo, Greece, trying to take the Suez, trying to take Gibraltar, mostly at the same time). Try playing as Germany with historical focus on. Just follow the historical path and you'll learn the game pretty quickly.

I think Ho4 has the framework to be the best HoI game in about a million patches and expansions, if not mods. There way things fundamentally work is just better than 2 or 3.

Except everything goes full retardo every single time. If you want to find out what would happen if the Western Allies declared war on the Soviet Union in 1943 because the Neo-Assyrian Empire joined the Comintern, it's good for 'dicking around with history'.

At the same time, despite all this pants on head retarded bullshit happening, everything feels tremendously boring and samey, and if you play anyone but the major powers and poland, expect to be bored to tears.

So it's just like real history then where it didn't turn into a shithole untill after the us backed mujahideen took over?

It's shit. Easy as fuck, ahistorical as possible, ugly map. I still played it like 200 hours, but that's just because I'm a grand strategy autist.

Wait a few years, pirate all the DLC's, install the best mods that will have come out, and then it will be a decent game. Play Victoria 2 while waiting for it.

The problem with HoI is that it is just so utterly bland and generic (outside a handful of choices as the biggest powers). Not as much as later 2 variants/3 but still a lot.

Are there any similar games that don't require the time commitment that the paradox ones do?

>>1776300

>>1775539
It's easy as fuck to invade England as any Axis country. Just plan the invasion before you declare war than execute the plan in the first hour of the war

>>1775453
The historical AI always gets the commies in war with the democrats., which bothers me.
On the other hand, when I play as Russia, its very easy to turn France into a communist state, and smash Germany.

Anyway, its a shallow game, there isn't much to do. Should've had more simulation of the population and politics, like Victoria did.
Also, I know its historical, but gameplay wise its an issue that only nations which start with a big fleet ever have a chance of winning naval conflicts. The game simply doesn't last enough for a non-naval power to ever achieve naval supremacy, because you can't capture ships.

Older ships are nearly useless compared to new ones so even a small production advantage can become decisive faster than you might think. And it really isn't hard to get a 4:1 advantage over the UK or even the US if you just blob enough

It's easy to construct a war-winning fleet as Germany or the Soviet Union within three or four years, so there's plenty of time. Weaker powers take only slightly longer

No HoI 4 is the worst game they produced yet.

>>1775453
it's one of their shittiest games in the past 5 years and it has next to no historical value just like most of their games if you actually care about history

if you want fun, just play eu4. if you want a hoi game, just play the older games even if they run like shit. if you want a game for historical value, don't play a paradox game

>>1776086
so how's that season pass #1 johan?

Try HOI3 if you think HOI4 is hard in any way.

After the End mod>>>>>historical game

I liked playing Communist China in HoI2. Beat up Nationalists from the west while Japs were taking the coast, then pushed the Japs out of mainland all the way to Korea. Then it's already late 1941 and Hitler is closing in on Moscow, time to join Comintern. 150 odd chink divisions redeployed around Moscow with hardened veterans and HQs. Too bad the save got corrupted and later lost.

Hello, my name is Maple Fucker from the /gsg/ Discord and I am here to tell you that I love HoI4. It's the best game ever produced by Paradox Interactive!

fair enough. although without (you)s it's easy to keep a thread going.

Personally I'd like to see more leaders and portraits/flags in HOI4. There are some good ones, but for a lot of minor nations they just get generic portraits once you go red or brown.

Some of the alternate flags are radical though, especially the fascist Scandinavian ones.

Alright, can we put the memes aside for a moment and all agree that, for what it set out to do, HoI4 is a success? It gave us a WWII grandstrat free from all the archaic bullshit of Darkest Hour, and also much easier to get into then HoI3. Can anyone here honestly say they enjoy wasting an hour to fix their OoB every time they start a game of HoI3? Not to mention that, rather than needing to tediously micromanage industry like in other HoI games, HoI4's industry is both streamlined as well as more intuitive than the previous games. Yeah, it's true that HoI4 leads to more "ahistorical" scenarios, but isn't that the point? Why even bother playing the game if the outcome is predetermined form the start? Moreover, from a pure gameplay perspective, giving the player more options, whether they be historical or ahistorical, is a total success. Sure, Mosley ruling Britain never could have happened in reality, but it's fun to have the ability to easily do so in video game form.
Overall, I feel that HoI4 is getting a lot of undeserved hate simply because it isn't a total copy of HoI3 with slightly better graphics. Of COURSE the game is different - HoI3 already exists, there would be no point to making the same game again! HoI4 may be different, but that's by design, not by some unforeseen flaw, and it should be celebrated for the changes it made, not hated on.

Tbqh HoI4 has two major failings for me as of right now. Since they took out most of the events, or at least the player's ability to be notified of them as they happen, the world feels empty. For the most part, 1936-1939 might as well not happen for a minor considering the fuck-all you'd see happen during it while you change out national focuses.

Second, there really isn't much alt-history you can do with the Axis. France and Britain you can make freak out and make go fascist or communist, but Italy and Germany are more or less locked into starting WW2 as the aggressors with no real way to affect political change without intentionally losing a war. The only real bits of alt-history you can do is choosing who to invade first or who to invade that you didn't in real life. I'd expect Italy at least to have a path to let it join up with the Allies to play out a hypothetical continuation of Mussolini's and Hitler's opposition. Japan is its own little pocket of fucked up since its focuses do literally lock it into starting a war in the Pacific and nothing else.

It's a good game otherwise, but those two things need to be fixed to make it really come into its own.

>>1776962
>>1776939
HOI4 is only really challenging in single player.

I've won against the axis as Britain with 49% contribution without any use of an airforce and only use of a navy for naval invasions to France from England.

I've done what I posted in >>1776871 by fucking 1946.

*only really challenging in multiplayer

>>1775453
HoI4 is fucking shit. The AI is retarded and can't even supply itself. Even on the hardest difficulty it's piss easy. I frequently worry for my enemies when playing this game, that's how bad it is.

Also it's anything but historical. Enjoy Greek troops capturing Berlin and getting their own half of Germany at the Peace conference. Oh but not before Britain puppets West Germany and the US puppets East Germany, and the Soviet Union conquers Japan and creates a puppet state in Sicily, lol so random!! Thanks Paradox, this is epic!

Seriously don't buy HoI4. It suffers from Paradox syndrome of the worst degree, by which I mean it plays like an early access game and requires mods to be functional. Except it's not even at that level, even with mods it still sucks.

Play HoI3 with BlackICE instead, or Darkest Hour if you want a WW2 game. If you want a good Paradox grand strat play Victoria 2 with HPM or EU4 with Meiou&Taxes. Pirate the DLC.

This was by no means a rare thing either, btw. Romans were quite fond of building shit around their opponents. People always give China credit for building walls but the real trick is moving them around so they can be useful.

Germany is too easy. USSR is never able to field enough formations because the industrial AI is retarded and they run out of rifles

not to mention the AI is so spastic that it can't keep its troops in the right place or build up its planning bonus, so half the time you can just waltz right into Moscow

HOI4 is utter shit with the exception of the air combat. I've never had more fun waging an air war of attrition against the UK.

Establishing air superiority over Southern England with 3000 fighters is simply delicious.

Victoria 2 is absolutely bonkers crazy if you play it just right.

I played Ireland once and by the end of the game, the country was communist.

I also played Switzerland (my first play-through) and I had made it to Secondary Power status, survived both Italian and Austrian aggression/occupation, and ended the game as a fascist state.

In my latest play-through I was Serbia and for some reason I got an event telling me that I can make Montenegro join me and become Yugoslavia and Montenegro even though I never got any other territory and was still in a SoI (shifted from Ottoman Empire to Russia for some reason).

They fixed that by giving the AI auto supply for whatever reason. Sucks giant donkey dong late game because you burn through equipment due to entrenchment bonuses so you continually have to hold your offensives while you rebuild enough equipment to go back on the offensive.
