>hoi 4 was actually easier than 4
Really makes you think

sorry. i meant 3

How do you know it's 95?
It's probably not, don't let a shitty online iq test dictate you man

>hoi 3 was actually easier than 3
Makes you think even more

It turns out they do get recalled if you enter a war.

>Blobbing that much
I need these north german dockyards to fight UK tho.

why didn't you just invade benelux you fucking moron

not op but im pretty sure UK would just guarantee them or they would just insta join allies if you declared war on them.

trying to access /r/paradoxplaza but it says the servers are busy....

All of the HoI games are easy. 4 has just laid bare how little actual gameplay there is in the series by having an actual good UI and management system (most of the shit in 2 and 3 were useless).

Paradox has been releasing the same game with flashier shit, same as any AAA producer, yet they get praised by idiots. Sad.

My divisions in training at stuck at 99% training? What do?

what's the biggest blob someone has made in HoI4 so far

where is the /gsg/ mod guy
is tehre an update released yet?
also pls add hoxha

I did took them from Germany, but we only just defeated Axis, so benelux was freed by the peace conference, and I haven't been called into war with Allies by USSR yet, despite the fact that it started because of my support for communist coup in US. I plan to regroup, prepare to attack, join the war and take these juicy benelux back.

how did you get a trashcan icon next to your post?

Produce whatever equipment they are missing. Or deploy them and train on map.

>trying to access /r/paradoxplaza

Why do you love that guy so much

How well balanced are the land doctrine trees?

Are any of them clearly stronger/weaker than others or are is it all personal preference/situational?

he was shitposting so mods deleted his post

What is it with Veeky Forums? I don't know anything about the board but I recently learned that they make fun of the HRE on a daily basis, now I'm reading this. Is it just reddit?

hoi4 /gsg/ mod guy needs to add better music for fascist / communist music, i'm tired of this shitty metal music and democrats have those allied radio songs which sound way better.

reminder

I don't I just want portraits to be fixed especially in the balkans

Also someone hoi4-ify this goy

Thanks, reddit.

what will happen when I declare war on a country guaranteed by the UK while also fighting alongside the UK in another war?

why the fuck didnt you just link to it or to the steam guide page instead of making that shitty screen shot

The entire world.

I finally managed to get airplane production as nazis to the point where I could attrition down the allies before crushing them. It was a cool op too, got the dream scenario of trapping half of France's army up in the netherlands like a bunch of retards then encircled the remainder with paratroopers before having Rommel drag his ballsack across Paris.

Now I'm not sure what to do though. There's retarded invasions as per usual that get slapped away with no effort, but I still have to murder the UK before I take care of the USSR. Will airdropping am entire army of paratroopers work? I didn't build enough of a navy I don't think. Four tech 1 carriers plus what you start with j think just runs away from every engagement.

On a different note, what does the AI do with lend lease tanks? I'll load into them and they'll use the artillery and small arms and planes I gave them but they just throw the AT and tanks into the garbage or whatever causes them to just lose all the equipment without using it.

if you're in their faction they won't declare war on you, so they probably wont if you're in a war on their side but not in their faction

How can I increase my organization percentage?

I have convoys and convoy escorts from USA to the UK, and I'm in control of two of England's ports, but some of my divisions have an organization level of 25% while others are at 83%

get air superiority and paradrop london, generally they don't have many divisions protecting the isles unless americans have joined the war

anyone still up?

I've got a real treat for you guys

To learn it well enough to have fun with it? Probably 85, one standard deviation, half the way to legally retarded.

That's not even a knock against the game; it's higher than most games. Something like quake I'd put south of 70, and that's a fantastic game.

>unironically building anything other than hundreds of carriers and naval bombers
>unironically not just bombing everything into the ground with gorillions of CAGs

Has paradox removed that godawful "feature" in HOI4 where other factions can access your territory if you have the same enemy?

I think you'll all like it but first I need (you)'s to gauge interest

of course not

they also havent fixed the utterly retarded amount of war participation you get from strat bombing

LMAO epic meme Johan

Is there a mod that removes it?

i dont get it

Our first move is to go commie immediately and align ourselves with the comintern. It's not going to save us entirely but it will help.

Our equipment production is currently optimized with anti tank artillery, rifles and support equipment, and we are capable of training 5 units at a time

In my game as Italy Americans joined in 1939. When I invaded British Isles in 1945 or 6, I found 300 American divisions there. It was a nasty fight.

The Murican AI was obviously incompetent tho, didn't really do much with those divisions.

>I think you'll all like it
>plays communist Poland
lmao

You're not an good enough memer than. just die.

i have no idea what im doing

Well fine since no one cares the story ends with me holding out three years in the middle of the reich

>get army to the border
>wait for months and they still preparing
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

What in the mother of meteoric supersaturate fuck is that

I thought it would at the very least be entertaining

please keep posting it, its the only thing keeping this thread alive anyways

How do I get "why we fight" if i'm a fascist
I wanna ally with fucking greece god damnit ufck you paracucks

>soviets are inside their own borders and have ene fallen back
>I dont have any bombers which would destroy infra
>Still get fuck ton of attrition and lack of supplies debuffs
Explain this

I just wanted to prove it happened. Here's an earlier picture of stalin coming to my aid

and here's a picture of him withdrawing all his troops back the second japan enters the war, effectively leaving me to die

are you fucking retarded or what
if you want that focus just because it lets you make factions, guess what theres one in the fascist tree that allows you to make factions as well, called ideological fanaticism
paradox couldn't make shit more obvious, theres even an ingame wiki, but we still have illiterate fucktards like this guy.

the lines collapse as germans continue to push forward

...

I have only played DH and HOI4 from the HOI series, is there a point in playing HOI2 and 3 or should I stick to DH?

wow aren't you a hyped one
go fuck yourself you moron, I didn't see the one on the fascist side
You\re insulting someone and calling him an illiterate over an anonymous imageboard on the internet, how tough do you feel you moron

Why didn't you pull back and defend at the rivers

Rivers and forts are nearly impossible to break if you combine them

t. reddit

t. boboslayer

how do I convince my father that HoI4 is shit and that he should not buy it?
he has played all previous 3, even bought eu1 when it came out. still thinks that paradox is a good company. ;_;

Just torrent it and install it on his computer

our superior firepower doctrine gives us massive bonuses to soft attack and, allowing us to doomstack infantry in warsaw with our +30% entrenchment general and anti tank guns effectively making us invincible

Rivers were plan A and worked until the soviets abandoned us, (I have less screenshots of those fallback lines since I was more focused on gameplay), but in any case all we need to hold onto to not capitulate is warsaw, the city itself is protected on two sides by rives and I've been building forts inside it

The germans, recognizing their efforts against our deathfort is useless, fuck off to moscow instead

>Being a criminal

>Being a criminal infront of your parents

Is HOI4 worth a try?

I'm pirating it btw

Maybe let him play the game and have fun while you sit on Veeky Forums and complain?

How does this make any sense? How is everyone in there not starving? How are you getting ammo and other war supplies? Why hasnt hitler just bombed what little industry you have to dust?

also I didn't want to put a huge river between my troops and warsaw for obvious reasons

>mfw parents have been pirating since they first got a computer and have taught me how to pirate when I was a kid

So you're poor white trash and proud of it... Congrats

A big game in Bulgaria costs around 100-120BGN

Minimum wage is 420BGN. No thanks faggot

>fascist South Africa is called 'Apartheid South Africa' and has a fucking retarded flag made in paint

?????????????

We control just enough of the state Warsaw (i checked) in order to stay in control of supply, additionally its the capitol so supply flows directly from it. We had the forethought to build max military factories in Warsaw, so we have enough factories left under our control to continue to produce at least rifles

It does not matter he thinks eveeryone is a fucking american. Here in Serbia big games cost 6990RSD
and minimum wage is around 24000RSD.

Jesus christ

Move to a better country you fucking mongolian

Should I go fallangist poland?

but Paradox went full shit between 2010-12, HoI3 and V2 were their last good releases before they begun outjewing the jews.

I know im just pointing out that a state like that surving makes no sense at all. Still though I like the few soviet divisions chilling in your borders its little things like that that give me a warm feeling insides. One time I was playing KR as commie italy. We lost and like 5 french divisions ended up in my territory and I took control of them after french surrendered. Is the game actually fun or should I really just wait for 2 or 3 DLC?

>Unironically living in 3rd world countries

>not euros
lol fags

t, greece

Guys, why doesn't my troops move over seas when I gave the naval insavion order?
When I mouse over the thing it doesn't say anything that could stop me from doing that?
HoI4.

HoI3 and V2 were unbelievably bad at release people seem to always forget this. Yellow Prussia.

>tfw you forgot St Helen is part of South America
I bet the White Man did this

HoI3 wasn't a good release. And even after patches it's not that good. It's only marginally better than HoI2 and it's mostly down to the map.
