    I'm hoping to have to Part 2, which will cover military and warfare, up on either the 7th or 8th. And remember that these tutorials are for the 1.0 version of the game, so some things may change later with patches and DLCs. Sorry about some of the stuff I missed, but I wanted to get this video done and released as soon as I could on day one.

      Am waiting anxiously for your next part, I tried to start a game today and still found allot of things confusing. Might be better to start as a far from conflict country like Argentina or Brazil.
      Will you be doing a informative/learning LP?

    • @PraetorianHiJynx

      I'll just finished recording part 2 and it'll be up on UA-cam later today. And yes I do plan on doing some HOI 4 Let's Plays.

      Capital? Do you mean a country's capital, or capital ships? You see a country's opinion of you by going to their diplomacy (right click somewhere in their country with no units selected). Their opinion of you, as well as your opinion of them, will be in the top right corner of this diplomacy tab. And you can speed up the game by using the plus "+" symbol on your keyboard, and slow down with the minus "-" symbol. There are also buttons at the top corner, though using your keyboard is far easier.

  • @Stealth17Gaming

    Great tutorial but man you talk FAST! It's hard to keep as a total noob to this game. As feedback I'd say talk slower to give people time to understand what's going on. It's probably all very straight-forward for you, but for me, not so much.

    • @PraetorianHiJynx
      @PraetorianHiJynx  8 років тому +54

    Once you start playing it makes sense.
    I turned France into a war machine and made it communist. I converted a bunch of civilian factories to military factories. I now have 26 military factories. I am mass producing infantry equipment and am currently making 212 a day with maximum efficiency and have about 56,000 stockpiled. I invested into nuclear technology and made war claims on Germany causing the tension level to rocket up to 76%. The border between me and Germany I have fully equipped with infrastructure and land forts along with a fuck ton of soldiers. I’m having quite the fun time. Now it’s to rip Germany a new one

    in december i thought id never learn how to play this game, i tried tutorials but they seemed way too time consuming. the best way to learn is to just play, im being honest. I learned the game fairly quick, and its actually pretty simple (a little too simple tbh, im going to try and learn eu4 because of this). Like very simple. eventually you'll catch onto things. its much more enjoyable than watching a tutorial anyways. although, they can help. (im probably just saying this because i got over the learning curve but in all honesty, i dont even remember learning this game, after a few plays you'll catch on quick and from then on the small details will start to come to you over time of playing)

    • @PraetorianHiJynx

      That's how I learned how to play the game as well, though I had little other option considering there weren't any tutorials of the game yet. But for some people trying to learn the game that way can be overwhelming and not very fun, and these tutorials are to help out those people ;)

How hard would it have been for them to create a step-by-step, scenario based tutorial that GRADUALLY taught you the game, like every other PC formatted "board game" manages to do. This game seems to have so much promise, but it's going to take a lifetime to figure it out. AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

    I appreciate the efforts experienced players make to help noobs learn HOI4, but as this is all new, it might be helpful if you slow down a bit in your description of the game mechanics. Thanks for the Beginner Guide, & look forward to part 2.

      Sorry if I was going through it too quickly. I was trying to get the video done and made public before I had to go to work today. I was also attempting to squeeze quite a bit of information into one video (perhaps too much). Thanks for watching!

      The game does have a bit of a learning curve, but after a few tutorials and a couple campaigns under your belt you'll be rolling over the AI.

      After watching all the tutorials, if you're still confused consider checking out one of my Let's Plays. The LPs show how to play in practice, which could be helpful for you. I have two current LP series right now, an Italy one that is quite far along, and a France campaign that we started about a week ago.

    I just bought this game and the amount of learning involved is intimidating, but I remember it was the same when I first played crusader kings 2, i shall keep at it till I learn the game because I know in the long run I will love it.

    • @PraetorianHiJynx
      @PraetorianHiJynx  6 років тому

      Yes, this is very much the case with HOI4. It does have a bit of a learning curve, but once you get past that you'll find a deep and entertaining strategy game :)
