what's you favourite nation to play as if you want to be mostly pacifist and just industrialize your country?
>>488871switzerland, brazil, japan
bohemia-moraviathe US of A Belgiumrussia
>>488871USA

>>488871Tripoli
>>488871China
>>488633what happened to the poleish
oh wow a grossdeutschland how long did it take you to come up with that idea for a campaign
>>488871I guess it depends on your definition of "mostly" pacifist. Ukraine, Vietnam, southern Chinese clique, Spain, Indonesia and I guess Mexico since you don't really have anything to attack.
>>488633>German Empire>Less than half of it is actual Germany>Potentially less than third of population is GermanWhy would you even take over Slovakia or Slovenia? What for?
>>488871Absolute pacifist run?Switzerland, Brazil, Sweden (with intention of going for peaceful Scandinavia), maybe Netherlands (assuming no new colonies)Fighting only defensive wars?Korea, Netherlands (again, no new colonies), Persia, Chile, MAYBE Argentina (depends on how relations with your neighbours play out)
>>488633>All those countless non-German, non-assimilable popsWhat for? Where is the profit in doing this shit, given insane infamy it would generate and yet you clearly not being on a world conquest.
>>489554Ironically it more or less follows the original partiation borders. Russians post-Napoleon took majority of land both Prussia and Austria took from Poland and declared it now Russian clay, to the detriment of Poland and Polish to this very fucking day
>>488633Is this at least the full democracy run? Because if you couldn't be arsed to do even that, you did the most boring shit imaginable.

My last run was French and I did pretty well smashing and taking bits of Britain, Germany, Spain, their colonies, and fending off Austria but then I got involved in a never ending ocean war with the USA in the Atlantic.It was actually pretty good but I was spamming so much maritime production that my PC started to lag like shit and I took Vicky off.Now I find all my other games boring and I'm considering buying a new rig.Weird shit is this one isn't that old it's a Ryzen 7
>>493538All he did was post a picture of his germany run dude, calm down. The only one being an edgy retard and talking about genocide here is you
>>493538Take a step back and consider why someone playing a certain faction in a computer strategy game makes you mad >>493573Trying to get Paradox games to run well by getting a more powerful CPU is a quixotic task, the problem isn't that your computer's not strong enough, it's that the game's not coded well enough. It's like Dwarf Fortress where it just wasn't structured in a way that works well on modern many-cored CPUs.Not a computer scientist though, this is just what I've gathered over time. I have a first gen Ryzen too and it Works on my Machine™
>>493734I have heard people say this but this one particular game where I had a lot of ship action going on was the first time I fell victim to it.It was pretty late in the game before it started to chug as well.Merde
>>493449People act like it’s impressive but all it ever is is a mod that adds a “kill all the poles lmao” button, don’t really see why people are so proud of it
What's the general strategy on taking land from much bigger countries than you? Playing DoD in South Africa, formed Batavia and I'm unsure how to take the cape and the Dutch cores since Burgundy is much stronger than me and allied to Scandi. Inversely, no one wants to ally me.
>>495695Bump. I'm having the same problem, but I did manage to ally the Dual Monarchy, because they had no other allies. Burgundy has no allies, except their spherelings. They're still the number one great power and I'm stuck at 6. Only strategy I can think of is waiting until a great war starts and hoping other countries/rebels do the heavy lifting for you.
>>488871RomaniaThey have everything they need to become an industrial powerhouse but start the game in an abysmal positionIf you know what you're doing you can get 40-50 million people in your cores and be 3rd-2nd on industry without any blobbing
We did it, comrades! We saved the New World!

Hello any CWE players, I kindly ask for your help to play test my mod, you can now play as Globohomo and try to exterminate the whole world with race mixing, or you can try to retake the US for White Anglos. It’s seems bug free so far for me, but 1 person can only do so much play testing themselves. Let me know any issues you have and suggestions! moddb.com/mods/adios-america
>>497359I think my biggest was winning against UK as China in base game w/o dlcs. In base game the UK has the habit to either eat up south asian minors or go into China (Tibet - Xinjiang - Mongolia etc.) They will start in in the 30s and won't stop declaring war until you're stronger than them. It's a fucking nightmare
>>497367How do you successfully play as an ethnostate in CWE? Immigration is just too powerful and the white birth rates are so shitty.

>>497485You pretty much have to be traditionalist with moralism, and have it rule long enough to also get the traditions national value, then combine that with all the polices that increase birthdate, and you should be able to stay positive even with pretty high literacy, alternatively cut education funding, and tax intellectuals out of existence and you would probably have literacy drop to the point it boosts pop growth like in places like Africa at game start.

>>497926In his defense I am playing bloat mod's Two Sicilies to Italian Empire (Southern) campaign and it is pretty fun. I am backing the Sonderbund in Switerland against the French, am planning to back the South against the North in America, and basically hodl as a century of reactionism that is starting to cause mass emigration from Italy as the euphoria of pushing Austria out fades and pan-nationalist liberals realize in horror that they were used.So thanks to that guy for giving me a fun campaign to play.
I wish you could ban certain parties in this game.I'm tired of liberals ruining my economy.
Spam elections and use the party loyalty focus, then.

>>498166ah, thankfully australia literally can't be made any worse than it already iswhy does it have CUM on the flag though what the FUCK
>>498153What the other anon said already. Punjab stands the best chance and comes with the less shit parties, too. Always "unify" first all the non-aligned countries in the region, Afganistan included, before you start even thinking about going after Brits and their puppets. In fact, you might be even tempted to march into central Asia first, knocking off Russian conquest of the area, too.
I asked this in /gsg/ but got nothing. Can you guys spoonfeed me and tell me if commiemod is both good and compatible with anything else?

>>497196Let it happen and RP an all nations involved Congress to follow up the initial one to finalize post-scramble borders, with natural wars effecting borders as they happen. Usually I just transfer provinces between power for nicer borders and try to keep population the same after the switch, with any "benefiter" in said population change paying up some cash to the loser.Example, Nigeria's coast is a cluster fuck, but the British managed to get the whole of the inland, with say the Dutch and Danish stealing a few provinces. England might switch out a similar population sized province/state to gain it, and if England forks over one that has say 50,000 less population, they'll pay a bit for that, usually at least a million
so what's the best navy composition?
>>498734mass frigates -> mass ironclads -> mass cruisers
>>498735Are dreads just for score?
>>498297>>498193>>498163how do you even do this when you have to fight the uk?what's the best strategy for taking them down?
>>498741i forgot to add "-> mass cruisers and dreadnoughts" onto the end
>>498742As I've mentioned earlier, hpm makes it somewhat easier for certain countries by giving you cores. By 1860-1870 depending on your luck, you become a medium-sized civ of around 7-8kk accepted pop. With discounts to techs it's enough to have a large enough army to dow the UK and fight back it's attacks getting battle warscore and eventually peacing out. After that you become a gp and proceed beating the UK and friends up because the AI is dumb and will throw armies at you only for them to be grinded down.It's a long and tedious process, you generally collect all your lands by the 1900s or so. Vanilla is basically the same thing. Playing as Punjab involves luck and savescumming because the UK dows you quite often and there's almost nothing you can do as an unciv.Once civilized you build stacks of arty and mobilize the infantry when going to war. That way you get a bigger and a cheaper army.Forgot to mention the Mughals. They also have lots of cores and a big population.
Dreadyboys are strong and costly but contribute to your score, cruisers are strong and cheap but add nothing to score. So you build as many dreads as your ports can afford and then as many cruisers as you need to win.
>>497367dang actually sounds interestingwill check out later
>>498396you know there are other mods right?
>>498801Any feedback is appreciated! Especially screen shots. I’m working on a major update for tonight to add in the ability to culture flip back to your tags original primary and accepted cultures for Nationalist/Populist/Traditionalist governments, as a counter to multiculturalism, and if it works how I think it will, you can theoretically install nationalist dictatorships into multicultural countries, and they will flip back to their mother culture and try to save it. Will take a few hours to make all the decisions, but will be done tonight. Check it out, 1.08
>>498389lol I’ll add more, but originally it was “American” culture in 1.01 so it made more sense then
>>496190>New Afrika>ExistingWhat retard made this mod? Blacks barely make up 30% of the population of the South. Hardly enough to take over especially considering how they'd be more interested in killing each other for purple drank than anything.

>>500928The USA doesn't have enough troops to cover the entire front at this point. You can easily cross the border with no resistance and start sieging the midwest. The AI is quite reluctant to go and siege Mexico while there are foreign armies within its territory.
does conquest of other countries as an unciv scale to said country's size? do you get more research points by attacking bigger countries?

How the hell does this happen? The only other time I've seen this was a game where I played Persia and it also happened with lumber. How does an entire state just have zero people employed? I tried raising tariffs which did nothing. I'm also in the US's sphere but i don't know if that makes a difference or not.
>>503571Fuck forgot pic
>>503571>>503572whatever they're producing through artisanship is more profitable than what they would be making through rgos
>>503574I did get a massive influx of europeans after a civic change (from ~5k to the ~50k). And in the entire country it's only the lumberjacks who are unemployed.Is there a way around it or just wait it out?
>>503578you can try encouraging labourers
>>503579or farmers, whichever one works that rgo
>>503581Laborers work the RGO. But every single one is unemployed. Like 5000+ of them. Most of the state is laborers they're just sitting there without a job while 0/8000 are working the recourse. It's confusing as hell.
>>503582no idea then
>>503583I think it has some shit to do with HPM. The only other time I've seen this happen was when I played Persia and the same thing happened. Every single lumber laborer was unemployed for a decade with no change in sight.
>>503571>>503572>>503582Low demand for timber causes the RGO to lay workers off. In your case, poor total rank + presumed low global demand for timber = no one employed
>>503585something something meme mod
>>503586I think I just figured that out but thanks. Global supply is like 2900 but demand is 2100 on a good day. Explains why it happened in my Persia games too.Thanks

Question, since I'm an idiot and can't figure this out myself.Forts. Do they give your units a defensive bonus, or are they JUST to slow down the question of a province?Also, which is true in EU?
>>505222yes but if you're chinese why are you simping for american blacksthey are literally worse than purebred african blacks because they have an entitlement streak a mile wide
>>505433Forts in Vicky2 slow down occupation. Forts in EU4 obstruct movement via creating "zones of control", force the opponent to siege them down in order to occupy the province, and allow the current controller of the fort to always fight battles as if they were defending (i.e. if an enemy force sieges down a mountain fort for a year before a relief force arrives to give battle, the relief force will be defending while the sieging force will suffer the "attacker in mountain terrain" penalty).

Is there any penalty for just never repaying debts in this game?
>>506124Bankruptcy occurs when a country's interest payments are higher than its income. (This means a country cannot borrow more money to fund interest payments.) Events or decisions may cause bankruptcy if they cause an indebted country to get a negative cash reserve; bankruptcy is declared immediately rather than an additional loan being taken out. A bankrupt country is displayed in red in the budget screen.A bankrupt country loses prestige, and all countries whose national banks lent money to the bankrupt nation receive a "Repay Debts" casus belli. Should they enforce this casus belli, interest payments to the victorious countries will resume as normal. Should the country not be able to make those interest payments, the creditor receives a "Cut Down to Size" casus belli. Additionally, all spending sliders are set to the minimum and all taxation and tariff sliders are set to the maximum once bankruptcy is declared. The bankrupt country also gets a loan_interest modifier of 0.5, making future loans carry a higher interest rate.

>>506258none that I know ofnone of the major mods (HPM, HFM, BAI, Crimeamod, Niggermod, etc.) have a proper genocide functionthe only one that could maybe have one if you squint at it hard enough is Vickymod when you take over Haiti as France
>>506258just add one yourself
Why the fuck won't the AI make peace when my war score is so massive?
>>506678You can specifically genocide Turks as Balkan countries and genocide Greeks and Armenians as Turkey in BAI.
I fucked up this campaign, no hope of ever becoming a GP and annexing Greece.Should have just prestigescummed.
>>505049>Dixie>Anti-ChinaLiterally why anon, if the South is ever going to rise again we are going to need a client to guard against the Yankees while we build up
>>507538and you should have rushed the healthcare reforms because the Balkans have very few popsI don't know why you would want to annex Greece though, maybe for more naval bases but it's still non-core territory with a lot of unaccepted pops. When I played Yugoslavia I bullied the Turks for middle eastern colonies instead.
>>507538>LivoniaWhat mod is this?
>>507767blood and iron mod>>507700In the mod Yugoslavia can core Greece and accept Greeks, same for Albania and Bulgaria only for Greece you need to be GP.

>>507934but that's cringe
>>507807I didn't know b&i was such a meme modnot that the player is obliged to do dumb shit like that but still.
I recently got into the game but I dont really see whats fun about it, it just feels like its making factories then waiting for infamy to go down to declare war againIve only played as germany btw
>>508483You're not really supposed to be declaring war all the time. War is usually a bad thing that kills your pops, makes people emigrate and just is generally bad for the economy. Though honestly you need to be at least a little autistic to enjoy V2. If fiddling around with the economy and seeing the culture map slowly change over 100 years isn't fun for you then you'd probably prefer a different game.
started playing vic2 first time today,Is HPM mod mandatory?
This was on sale for 75% off so I bought everything on Steam, what're some fun nations to start with?
>>509168USA, Prussia, and UK for newer players. Russia, Austria, Italy (doesn’t matter who you start as), and Japan are some of my favorites though and have a lot of potential if you can pull them off successfully.
Is the pop demand mod good? I have seen a few mods use it as a base like divergences of darkness but is the mod by itself good too or should I just stick with HPM?
dod uses hpm now because pdm's economy is hilariously brokenplay it once or twice for curiosity's sake but dont seriously try to play it as your main mod
Are there any must-have mods before I get too deep into this?
>>509350take your pick of blood&iron(/crimeamod), hpm or hfmblood & iron is the one that runs the fastest and doesnt make as many major changes around the world as hpm or hfm, instead just focusing on content and flavor in european countrieshpm is the "default" vic2 mod and (at least on 4chan) it has a divided opinion because many people don't like the changes it's made (adding a bunch of random nigger cultures in africa, massive arbitrary buffs of lazy-fairy, changed mining techs because he fucked with the supply and demand of rgos, etc)hfm is hpm but bloated with lots of shit and it runs like garbage. if you're one of the people who just wants as much stuff as possible play hfm.

>>512311Play Prussia if you want to learn war and diplomacyPlay Brazil if you want to learn economy.Never ally the Brits.
>>512519>Play Prussia if you want to learn war and diplomacyWon't starting with Prussia just lead to getting dogpiled in massive european wars? Generally speaking, shit like chaotic 'everyone kills everyone' conflicts end up only making me learn less. I know this because i recently downloaded CK II Too>Play Brazil if you want to learn economy.Wait, Brazil? Really, Brazil? I mean, i was going to play it sooner or later because i'm a huetard, but economy? Brazil? Won't that just be...coffee?>Never ally the Brits.That's just generally good advice for real life.
>>512524Prussia is one of the most OP countries in Victoria 2. You're rarely, if ever, going to get into a war you didn't start yourself and you're railroaded to form Germany. All you really need to watch out for is a Russia-France alliance, but even then it's possible to form Germany without the French bit so you wouldn't even need to worry about that. Since Prussia already has great literacy and industry it's probably the most-noob friendly country. >Wait, Brazil? Really, Brazil? I mean, i was going to play it sooner or later because i'm a huetard, but economy? Brazil? Won't that just be...coffee?100%, Brazil is basically the tutorial island of Victoria 2. You have no neighbours you couldn't roflstomp if you had to, push reforms and you'll get fat amounts of immigration to fill up your workforce and your army and you have abundant resources for your economy. The only major resources Brazil doesn't have are coal and oil, which only become a problem super-late game and which you can easily get by colonising Africa or just from your spherelings. Playing Brazil is like playing America, only without any major wars to worry about.
There is very little gameplay in this game outside of wars. That's why playing as anything below secondary power is mind numbingly boring.
>>512548>>512524Another great strength of Brazil is that it's a monarchy while every other country in the Americas is a republic, this means if a shitty party like the liberals or anarcho-liberals gets elected and starts fucking up your economy you can just appoint whatever party you want instead

>>512548I followed your advice and...holy shit it' boring. It's so boring it hurts. This game is boring.

Sorry for party rocking
>>512856It's not random, you just don't know how to play. Which is fair, not everyone is autistic enough for this game.
>>512856What an incredibly retarded and reductionist take. It sounds like no game is ever going to bring you enjoyment, so why you would ever enter a strategy game board to complain is beyond me, but maybe you're just the hoi4poster trying out a new line of bait posts.

>>513001Like 90% of the Turkish population just vanishes.
>>513014>shit like the battles being boring is just a dealbreaker>i enjoyed ck2What?War in ck2 is just recruiting the highest martial guys from the character finder and baiting the AI to attack you into defensive terrainIn victoria2 you at least have to manage multiple armies, often on multiple fronts, and can build your own armed forces (instead of levies+cultural retinue). I won't pretend the naval combat is exciting but at least it fucking exists.
>>504412Reminds me of my Großcolumbia attempzTwo reactionary revolutions in the first year.Instantly switched to pres dictatorship and the monarchy.Fun times.

>>509128Having one of the overhauls is pretty essential, yesHPM, HFM, Blood and Iron, and the Grand Combination are good. There's also an HPM extension that lengthens the game to ~1950https://github.com/ujtcelvn/Ending_Extension_Mod

>>513080Yes, but the battles actually feel more exciting. In Victoria 2 it's just "big army go and roll dice, you win, 6,000 enemies die"
>>513200Great unrelated example, retard. Traits don't change that much, and there's a difference between having 4 stats and having 50, none of which matter anyway because the economy is a goddamn rollercoaster.
>>488633What would be your ideal Victoria III, bros?
>>513286>sphere markets that aren't broken>a bank that will invest money and can earn interest off of loans>RGO's don't scale back production in response to reduced demand so the price of RGO goods will actually go down
Playing Japan rn. Who should I be adding to my sphere?
>>513311Korea obviously.
>>513277The economy won't be a rollercoaster as long as you aren't using bloatmods and aren't a complete fucking moron who can't handle the game. If your economy is bouncing up and down you're doing something extremely wrong. And you're wrong on the other end as well. About half of the events in CK2 either give you a new trait or change one you already have, depending on your choices. Sometimes the events assign you a random trait out of 2 or 3 possible ones listed. The comparison fits perfectly and your getting filtered doesn't change that.
>>513286everything this guy said>>513286Plus>Company mechanics that allow direct pop investment into RGOs and Industries>Dynamic melting pot cultures created over the course of the game like dynamic countries in EU4, affected by the accessibility of the province(Anglo-Indian populations emerge in accessible coastal cities and business centers, almost no mixing in interior jungle and arid rural areas) >tariffs working like real life >more in-depth combat
i really should play more v2 but im holding out for v3. at least a rerelease with a better map and shit would be enough to persuade me. oh and make modding easier pdx
>>513329>If your economy is bouncing up and down you're doing something extremely wrong. Well, there SHOULDN'T be anything wrong with it, it's just bouncing down like crazy because of the international market being schizphrenic and random. >About half of the events in CK2 either give you a new trait or change one you already have, depending on your choicesGood thing those never fucking happen, then. I've went through god knows how many kinds, they rarely ever change traits that often. Only NPCs change that fast.
wait so is crimeamod a different mod from blood and iron or is it like anon's bloat mod for hfm that you need to activate bai and then crimeamod?if it's the former then what's the difference between the two?
Is there anything to do with colonial provinces aside from using them for soldiers? Since you can't make the majority of them states and all.
>>503951Laissez faire m’dude
>>513311Use sphering to decrease opinion of countries you want to annex, Great Powers will only intervene if they’re in sphere or friendly relations
>>513543RGOs, naval bases, harrassing other colonies, and you can eventually get decent amount of soldiers from it
>>513530its standalone, and its slavery mechanics are pretty cool, never seen a mod where I can enslave new pops so easily But it feels like a combo of HPM and HFM more stuff, alot of unhistorical stuff happened in my game, but nothing too off the wall. The Qing never collapsed into the warlord era, so idk if that's intentional. The AI feels smarter/more aggressive.
>>513588Qing sometimes survives past 1936 in HPM too (I'm the EEM developer, and last time Qing survived until 1940)
>>513588>Enslaving the FrenchBased
>>488871Germany. You only really need one war with France the entire game, and if you don't feel like fighting them after that but also don't want to maintain a big military then you can always just let them take back Elsaß-Lothringen.
>>513397>Well, there SHOULDN'T be anything wrong with it, it's just bouncing down like crazy because of the international market being schizphrenic and random. Oh, so you admit you know nothing about the economy and aren''t even capable of handling it. That makes this much easier.>Good thing those never fucking happen, then. I've went through god knows how many kinds, they rarely ever change traits that often. Only NPCs change that fast.Now you're just being disingenuous, there's a huge amount of events in CK2 which change your character traits, either by adding, removing, or swapping. Not to mention the events where the only option is a trait change. Well, if this was bait then you did a great job by making me reply but at this point it's getting more and more tedious. If you have anything of actual substance to say, you should hurry it up before the thread dies from your retarded posts.
>>512625Ending Extension Mod has been updated again, this time focused on military balancev0.4.2 changelog>naval engineering 7 only speeds up aircraft carrier construction instead of that of all ship types>increase aircraft carrier unmodified build time to 480 days (16 months), - 70 days from techs = 410 days (13.67 months) >increase aircraft_carrier build priority so AI builds them more>motorized_infantry_activation made even more easier to invent
>>513872are you going to add nukes into it? I like the ones in CWE desu
I'm gonna combine the Ending extension mod, crimeamod and the better migration mod togetherlet's see what happens
ok ending extension mod and crimeamod together won't work so I gott choose one of the two
How do I get into CWE, bros?It looks so based but it takes decades of waiting around and clicking pointless +5 prestige decisions constantly.
>>513576How do the RGOs help me if I can't use colonies for factories?
>>514156Depends, I love building ethno states in it, even if everyone says it’s just a meme.First higher education can honestly be ignored unless you absolutely need to catchup in tech, if it’s 15-20% it’s ok until after 2020ish, because as it goes up, pop growth goes down, so you want to keep it reasonably low, or else you can drop into negative birth rates, which with enough immigrants you can offset, but it’s still a pain, and will kill and enthostate.First get nationalists into power, use national focuses to make it so they can’t lose an election, will take a few years. they can give social polices and revoke political policies, which is what you want to create the one party ethno state, pass everything that gives pop growth, you can end up getting it pretty high with Healthcare, Child care, and pensions. While also revoking upper house reforms until its ruling party only, this will allow you to revoke every polical reform and pass any social reform, until you revoke the final voting reform and become a nationalist dictatorship. Next get traditionalists into power, and keep them in power long enough to change your national focus to tradition, this gives even more pop growth and lowers war exhaustion and consciousness. Win wars and purge traitors until over 50% of your pops are traditionalist, will give more modifiers for pop growth. Also during this time amend your constitution to never change from tradition so you can freely swap to nationalist or populist if you need to pass other reforms, without the chance of losing your pop growth.
>>513243No one thinks it's a pasta except for you. How you think you could possibly make that comparison with Rome Total War when he was obviously finding watching numbers go up and down in a much less action based context is beyond me. You're just chimping out.
>>514156If you play an immigrant nation like the USA, nuke and destroy weaker countries to get their pops to migrate to you for crazy pop growth.
>>514204Also use the natalism decision as much as possible
>>514218>>514204I've tried playing twice once as South Africa and then again as Yugoslavia. South Africa was fun, I just went for maximum multiculti to paint Africa orange with immigrants and formed the African union. Yugoslavia was a complete slog though, I was just stuck at secondary power and couldn't get any higher because Switzerland was number 8 with like 5000 prestige.
>>514228Try nationalist into traditionalist west Germany, I have a save where it’s 2010 and I have like 130 million and growing 50k a month. But ya, you need military victories a lot of the time to gain enough prestige to be relevant, go get lucky. I always dope in the Olympics because 60% odds are actually pretty good for double the reward and less than that in punishment. You just need to be consistent about always cheating. It’s like a poker player, if you could guarantee a 60% win rate it’s always a net gain to cheat
>>514228here is that save in the 1990's>>514234
>>514228Nationalist China is extremely fun if you've never played them, once you win you can basically become whatever you want, and reviving the Qing is the most based one
>>514228also USSR to EU is OP as fuck, especially if you nuke china and India so nobody else can challenge you
>Manchuria SSR puppet breaks away>Chinks annex themCHAAAAAANG
>>514228once you have more money than you can spend and a growing population this is the ideal political setup imo
>>514203Because they give you the goods that your factories use for the input of production. Oil, coal, rubber, silk, dyes etc. Or they give you RGOs that are consumer goods that will make your pops happy and let you sell to other countries ex: Tea, coffee, tobacco,
>>514203stuff produced by your RGO's are bought by your factories before they reach the global market, so you don't need to be in the top of prestige to buy rubber for example, if you have a few rubber RGO's in your colonies
>>514211>action = gameplay>no action = not gameplayWow, what a high quality and intelligent post. I'm sure you have many more 400 IQ take you might like to share with the class.
>>514375>no action = not gameplayNever said that, but I'm sure you would love to share your lack of basic reading comprehension with the rest of the class some more.
>>488633is vic2 like eu4 where you'll never truly be able to understand it? i don't like not feeling like i have mastered something
>>514419The eco will always have some components that seem like a mystery, but you should be able to piece together Vic 2 eventually. It doesn’t have the dlc bloat or updates of EU4 that make it annoying to keep track of.
>>514419You stated that you can't compare field battles in total war with the economy in Vic2, because field battles contain action. You disregarded the fact that both are parts of the core gameplay in each game, and can be interesting or uninteresting based on their own merits or the player's experience. Instead of recognizing this, you imply that either economy in Vic2 is not a part of gameplay, or that action is the only type of "real" gameplay which a player can be interested in. The comparisons I made are valid, you're just illiterate or can't seem to understand the overall context.
>>514437actually meant for >>514409
>>514228Oh ya, and non-aligned get an additional pop growth modifier
>>514437>Instead of recognizing this, you imply that either economy in Vic2 is not a part of gameplay, or that action is the only type of "real" gameplay which a player can be interested in. I never did this. It's not a good sign when you need to make up arguments to have anything to say. If you can't see how you're comparing apples to oranges you might legitimately be missing a portion of your brain.
>>514105Yep, nukes are in the works
>>514750>I never did this.>How you think you could possibly make that comparison with Rome Total War when he was obviously finding watching numbers go up and down in a much less action based contextOh wow it sure sounds like you don't think the economy in Vic2 is comparable to battles in Rome Total War, even though they're both core gameplay features that players can be interested in. But you know, maybe you're right. Maybe I'm just making things up, and really what you meant is that the Vic2 economy system isn't core gameplay at all. Oh boy, I'm so glad a super smart anon like you can come along and show me the light on how core gameplay mechanics aren't core gameplay mechanics and can't be compared in an analogy because one core gameplay mechanic isn't exactly like the other core gameplay mechanic. You sure showed me! xD!
>>488709based
>start a game of Vic2>realize I have to reassemble and rebuild the army to make sense>instantly feel exhaustedShould I just disband everything and wait for the soldier pops to stabilize?
>>514825I usually just use my starting army unless it’s all irregulars, and once the solider pops drop too low just let the division die eventually. The problem can be if you disband everything, you might not be able to get all the goods needed to rebuild everything you want immediately

>>515341>>517306>>517693He’s right though. I mean sure, he’s clearly an autist but at least he hasn’t had a complete mental breakdown like you are after getting shit on. So not only have you apparently missed the point he was trying to make before, you can’t even admit when you’re wrong and start screeching the second it gets pointed out. It’s pathetic.
>>517521This might me most unbalanced mod i ever played. Industry is so broken i got 5th rank in it before 48, and become GP in same time, even tho i started as russian pupetBut its fun
Do pops prefer to buy goods from my own domestic producers before others in my sphere, or is there equal access to the common market? I'm playing CWE as China and trying to secure the country's grain supplies, and I'm producing enough on paper for my own pops and factories plus a bit to export, but my poorest pops are having trouble finding any for sale (the world market has a severe shortage.) Is it being bought up by rich Koreans and Cambodians, or is there something else going on?
>>488633Ca va bien.
>>518239That depends on tarrifsIf they are high pops buy localy
>>518239The communist bureaucracy is simply lying about the actual output of goods. Many such cases.

>>518480>>505141Honestly good on them for sticking with Imperator.While still being pretty ehh, the base mechanics plus nuParadox modibility does make it probably the best vehicle for a Vicky mod.It genuinely pains me that the Bronze Age mod jumped ship to CK3, though I totally understand why.I may be currently fan-forking the Bronze Age mod to work with Imperator 2.0, hacking using winmerge has yielded a mod that will actually load to the main menu, but crashes on a new gameerror.log is fortunately pretty extensive, so at least I have a list of what needs to be fixed
>>518834Someone has already updated the bronze age mod to 2.0 for Imperator, apparently with the permission of the old dev. You could probably try reaching out to that guy and asking to join the dev team which might be a bit easier. Plus, Imperator is probably a niche enough game to keep a lot of the more undesirable/attention-seeking modders away from it
>>496314they always always take that fucking decision, also the AI can't handle the fact that every single superweapon decision in CWE will give you 5 or 10 infamy and will go above 25 just from decisions alone at random times
>>519027>will go above 25 just from decisions alone at random timesits so retarded. in DOD japan has a decision to annex Qingqu at the cost of 20 infamy so they regularly hit 40 then death spiral
>>517886This is such a deranged view of the situation that, on top of the fact that there's a myserious lack of response him, I'm almost positive you're samefagging. I hope to God I'm right because having two people as dumb as him would be worse.

>>519693Lol what mod lets other countries get it than the US?
>>520299I usually don't. Puppeting them is way easier. Vic 2 isn't really a game where you can expand outside of colonial provinces or as the U.S., primarily because no one will want to bother sailing over to fight you and they're at an insane disadvantage if they try.

>>521053not just boomer stuff but general shortfalls- basing everything on tax efficiency so you need 6+% bureaucrats for 100% admin efficiency- also as a result, easy to go into negative tax efficiency, except you arent even paying the POPs money it just disappears- 6 types of factories which turn (some RGO) into food (e.g. bakery, tea beverage factory, etc) none of which are ever profitable or used- 2 different factory types producing telecom equipment, except one has more expensive inputs for the same output, as a joke- as mentioned, every superweapon (chemical / biological / nuclear) involves a 10 AE hit, so AI will randomly go over and get containment war'd- the containment wargoal has a cost of fucking 5 warscore, so every game China loses one battle and decides that's sufficient to let the UN dismember and occupy it- badly spaced techs so that usually by early 80's you are totally out of tech to research until 1990 rolls around- constantly changing fundamentals of the mod, there's an issue on github right now where hundreds of event conditions still reference the old reform that was replaced by the police security reform- ships all start out named "chip nr1" (??)- way too many political parties IMO- China randomly climbs up and down GP rankings like a monkey as it repeatedly decides to build and then dismantle its entire industrial score
>>520596Did you actually create another persona just to try throwing my meds comment back at me? It's obvious to anyone with half a brain what you did and it's insane anyone would sink this low. You literally posted in your exact same voice, didn't respond to me accusing "the other poster" of being you when any normal person would, and the one time you typed a response as him it happened insanely close together after you were called out and you suddenly appeared on the scene in the post immediately following his when you said nothing new the entire day. But conveniently, right afterwards you say something when we both know you have nothing better to do.>also if you don’t respond to me within 0.6 seconds you’re samefaggingThis is a defensive statement for you, not himself, when any person would go on the offense and "he" didn't make a single new post after all this. You lack suck basic social understanding that you tried tricking someone to stroke your own ego and fell flat on your ass. If you can acknowledge how autistic you sound in one of your posts, you seriously need to do some self reflection. You aren't smart. You're a pseud who threw a tantrum like a child at the thought that someone doesn't like the same games as you, thinking you won any kind of argument when a child could think of something more intelligible than the shit you put out. Sincerely, take your meds. I know you would love nothing more than to throw that phrase back at me but we both know who needs them. You might actually be developing another personality.
>>521098anon, the voices are in your head, 4chan is a text and image board
>>521098>You literally posted in your exact same voiceWhat the fuck? Do schizos really?>all this other garbageHoly shit, I was just joking around with the delusion-talk, but you might actually be fucking insane. I don't need to respond to every single post about me, because I'm not obsessed with how people view me like you seem to be. You can think I'm a samefag or an autist or whatever, but at the end of the day, I know which posts are mine and which are yours. And I also know which one of us is having a complete meltdown over some text boxes online. And if you really want to use post times as """"proof""" of samefagging, I would argue that you and I are actually the same 8-million IQ turbo-autist samefag considering how quickly you've responded to me in earlier posts. That would be a real surprise, huh? Actually, since apparently I'm the crazy one, maybe I've just been making you up this whole time, and all the times I've responded shortly after you have just been me samefagging and creating a really intricate argument LARP. Hell, maybe EVERYONE in this thread is actually me. I mean, look at how many people reply to each other within 24 hours!
nobody responds to accusations of samefagging with multiple paragraphs unless they samefagged
>>521208Voice is another word for tone. You really aren't the sharpest tool in the shed.
>>521208>I don't need to respond to every single post about meExcept you did besides the one I'm accusing you of. >And I also know which one of us is having a complete meltdown over some text boxes onlineThat'd be you. You threw a fit because some guy didn't like your game and continued you to for several days. I don't understand how someone can stay so angry for so long. >And if you really want to use post times as """"proof""" of samefagging, I would argue that you and I are actually the same 8-million IQ turbo-autist samefag considering how quickly you've responded to me in earlier posts.

After all this you still don't know how to make 1:1 comparisons.
>>521310Voice and tone are not synonyms, even in literary usage. Sure, they share somewhat similar definitions, but play fundamentally different roles and interact with each other. There is no reasonable way to interpret this anon's usage of "voice" to mean anything other than physical voice, unless you're retarded which I guess you are. >>521346>Except you did besides the one I'm accusing you of. I'm replying to the discussion chain that I'm actually a part of, not whatever tangent you and some other idiot started. If you and another anon want to start a splitoff conversation then that's your choice, the burden is on that anon to answer you. >That'd be you. You threw a fit because some guy didn't like your game and continued you to for several days. I don't understand how someone can stay so angry for so long. I already stated that I didn't care if he liked or hated Victoria 2. The only part I cared about was that he was making retarded, half-assed generic posts which don't contribute anything. Which is also why I decided to start replying to you, because you made some equally retarded posts. >Equally dumb argument as your first one. After all this you still don't know how to make 1:1 comparisons.Well since you appear to be incapable of understanding sarcasm/hyperbole, I can give you an actual 1:1 comparison. You yourself stated "and the one time you typed a response as him it happened insanely close together after you were called out and you suddenly appeared on the scene in the post immediately following his when you said nothing new the entire day. But conveniently, right afterwards you say something when we both know you have nothing better to do." Now, right after my post, there were 3 responses which all were made right after one another within 35 minutes, and with somewhat similar posting style. Now by your logic, these are all very likely samefag posts made by you, correct?
>>521500>There is no reasonable way to interpret this anon's usage of "voice" to mean anything other than physical voice, unless you're retarded which I guess you are.>In literature, “voice” refers to the rhetorical mixture of vocabulary, tone, point of view, and syntax that makes phrases, sentences, and paragraphs flow in a particular mannerYou are literally retarded if the first thing that came to your mind was physical voice. >Now, right after my post, there were 3 responses which all were made right after one another within 35 minutes, and with somewhat similar posting style. Now by your logic, these are all very likely samefag posts made by you, correct?The posting styles weren't similar at all. They were completely different. Are you missing a portion of your brain? I might have given you too much credit.
It's finally happenedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QYUhN9gOgs
>>521525>In literature, “voice” refers to the rhetorical mixture of vocabulary, tone, point of view, and syntax that makes phrases, sentences, and paragraphs flow in a particular manner>mixtureSince you're apparently illiterate, I'll try and explain the difference as best as I can for you. In literature, the "voice" is essentially how the narrator comes across. It expresses their point of view, their emotions, their inner thoughts, background, etc. It more or less acts like a fingerprint of sorts. The words and phrases they use, their overall speech patterns, etc. can all be used to distinguish one narrator or writer from another one. The same narrator will always have the same voice. Now tone, on the other hand, describes the attitudes or feelings a writer (or narrator) may have in a peice of writing. It can help do things like convey an author's disgust or reverance of different things without explicitly stating them. A narrator's tone can sometimes change throughout a novel, but they will still have the same voice overall. Similarly, you could have multiple different narrators/authors with many different voices, which all write with a similar tone in a passage. Not to say that tone and voice aren't similar, but to call them interchangable is beyond stupid. >You are literally retarded if the first thing that came to your mind was physical voice. Yes, forgive me. Anon is clearly a mastermind capable of discerning all the nuances of someone's writing style by looking at 3 posts and this is exactly what he meant, not the more commonly used definition of voice to refer to the sounds he makes in his head when reading. >The posting styles weren't similar at all. They were completely different. Are you missing a portion of your brain? I might have given you too much credit.You could argue that 1 of the 3 were different, but the other 2 were definitely very similar. Both use proper grammar, punctuation, arrogant tone, low conjunction/comma usage etc.
>>521599Everything you said about voice applies to the context I was using it in. How do you manage to say so much yet prove nothing except how dumb you are?
>>521638Sure, maybe it applies but you have to look at the context of the discussion and your choice of words. The post I made right before, commented on the voices in your head, and instead of using "narrative voice" or "literary voice," you just use "voice." Unless literary voice was already being discussed prior to that, there is no reason why anyone should interpret that as anything other than physical voice. We're basically applying occam's razor here: either we believe that you spent time analyzing the posts, noting the style they were written in and comparing the two, then making an assertion that all the posts were written in a sufficiently similar enough manner to have the same narrative voice. Then, after all this you just write "they have the same voice" leaving out any reasoning for why you thought such a way as well as leaving out any clarifying words like "literary," either by mistake or the assumption that everyone is going to know exactly what you mean even though the conversation was already on the subject of schizophrenia. So we either believe that, or simply that you read all those posts in the same voice. When confronted, you make a false claim trying to walk it back. When confronted on your claim, you walk back again saying "yeah well actually I guess it applied anyways lol." On top of this, you still refuse to answer my question on whether or not your own criteria for samefagging can be applied to the 3 posts I previously mentioned. I'm honestly not sure how disengenuous you can be, but maybe this is all some kind of expert bait to farm (you)s.
holy schizo just talk about vicky
>>521689Nice mental gymnastics, we're on a text board. Saying "literary voice" would be redundant as it's implied, which you would understand if you had any brain cells. I know it's hard to reconcile your world with reality but you should make an active effort. I'm gonna take you making things up as a concession that you have no leg to stand on. Grow 30 more IQ points before you decide to post here again.
>>521742>Saying "literary voice" would be redundant as it's implied>a niche definition doesn't need to be clarified>solely based on the fact that this definition is being applied in a situation that's rare even for this specific definitionTalk about mental gemnastics. Perhaps I was wrong to assume you'd understand even the most basic concepts of English when you claimed that you knew what big boy words meant.
>>521742>>521771Oh, and I forgot: you're still avoiding the question.

>>522231I like your mod, but my only problem is I don’t like the lack of CB’s in HPM, not being able to liberate an puppet is really annoying. But that’s a HPM issue not your mod.Also the tax refund, if there’s a way to hide it I think that would work better, because sometimes if you have a ton of money stored up you just get spammed with it, idk if that’s possible though.
>>522310The tax refund event starts if you have more than 6 million dollars in your treasury. Yeah, I'm still adjusting the tax refund tiers.Yep HPM cbs are like that. Perhaps I'll review them later, but they're a very low priority right now.

>>526254Ikr, if I was god I’d make a Vicky 2 remastered, and only optimize the game, and add in a AI front tool like in HOI3/4 so that the late game warfare could be a little less tedious, though I love having 1000’s of divisions don’t get me wrong.
>>526350I think there needs to be more ideological conflict to help create conflict between the top powers post 1900, like democracies, communists, and fascists all usually ally, and try to invade and spread their ideology
>>526254>>526350I've been trying to modify HPM so that the AI doesn't shit itself with certain countries. I've managed to make France not poor as shit while Bonapartists are in power with a triggered modifier but I have no idea how to get Japan to not spam clothing factories and wineries and never build real industry.I get frustrated by this in the 1890s and ragequit, usually.

Got the Victoria 2 itch but can't decide which mod to play seems like community is active as fuck now wtf? Seems like there isHpmHfmHfm extended/expandedHfm anon edits?Crimea modThe great combination (mix of above?)DodCweWhich one? Looking for content heavy autism
>>526740Play HFM once as a western and once as nonwestern to get the canon experienceCWE is extremely indepth and despite its failings can be a lot of fun
>>526687have you had both the dread scott and john brown decisions?
>>526740If you want to play Vicky 2 almost like stellaris, where slavery can be a viable alternative, Crimeamod let’s you enslave unaccepted quickly as you conquer them. But it less historical than HPM or HFM
Is crimeamod based on another mod? or built from the ground up?
>>526776It was built from taking parts of other mods, but idk what the base is, probably hpm or hfm if any.It’s standalone

>>526810Get more, get them literate, get them in factories, get them to sign up for the army, conquer more pops.
>>526792What about grand combination for medium autism heavy content?
>>526813I see
>>526816i have no idea ive never played it and dont know anything about it
>>526799Are you the guy who had the frca campaign share those files niggga
>>526808Here https://ufile.io/epk3839sI did not include the BaI CBs (I think they're too powerful) but the subsidy fix is included. I also allow laissez-faire to destroy and open factories.There are many changes in here including some events and decisions, and triggered modifiers from HFM. It has HFM's rhine crisis and splendid isolation for example.Some more railroaded colonial things from HFM but not too many. Germany gets northern new guinea and cameroon, and the owner of outer hausaland gets Chad. These are impossible in HPM despite being historical so it felt justified.Other big changes are a liquidity fix (AI does tax refunds at 1m treasury, player can use a decision at 300,000 treasury) and iron fix (reverses HPM changes to mining techs so there aren't massive iron/coal shortages. I also increased pop coal demand so there isn't huge oversupply late game).Migration is adjusted based on HFM but toned down, with triggered modifiers to direct most migration before 1900 to USA, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. USA also gets a long baby boom at the start of the game, so it should reach something closer to its historical population in the AI's hands.Many tweaks to help the AI with some things.I don't know how it holds up late game but it should work.
>>526843Cool thanks man!
>>526843How tedious and time consuming is it to make events/decisions for Vicky 2
>>526850once you get the hang of it, it's not really bad, but the first couple will be hard and time consuming if you're not really a programmer.
>>526850If you don't care about localization and pictures (I don't publish my stuff so I don't care) it's easy enough. You can get started by copying existing things and modifying them. Testing is time-consuming but there's no way around it.Decisions are very simple. Events are harder and I usually avoid making new ones if they aren't clearly the best solution to the problem.
>>526860>If you don't care about localization and pictures (I don't publish my stuff so I don't care) it's easy enough.Even that stuff is easy once you learn it, learning it all is the hard part because of the lack of great tutorials (IMO) and the wiki isn’t super helpful explaining some stuff, like what type of encryption localization files need to be in. Big tip is use Notepad ++, very helpful to visualize the events/decisions
