Bro is speaking facts🔥🔥🔥
paying 12 to spend 4 hours fighting in jungles before looking at the clock with delirious eyes and realizing that you just wasted your day playing possibly the least fun nation in the entire game... def not speaking from experience
applies to all paradox products
just uh.,..pirates from the carribean
Just get it cracked. I have all the dlc for free
Just give Germany a focus tree.
But do not take my +2 rubber out of nowhere focus 😅
@@sandglokta4699 fax
For a World War 2 game. Japan really doesn't have a lot of content or interactions. It's as if this is a European War game and not a world war one. The pacific war lacks so much content and I believe it really really needs the attention first. While Germany does need a tree, the one it has is good enough to wait a bit.
@@x-uca7465 I recently played japan a bunch after years of avoiding them and their focus tree is truly dreadful. I put it bottom 3 worst in the game. However japan itself is pretty fun especially if you just avoid the marco polo bridge event chain.
@@x-uca7465 Tbh I think the playerbase is also at fault for this. There is a part of the hoi4 fanbase that reacts extremely negative everytime the developers make an expansion for non european countries because "whY are yOu giving content to irrelEvaNT countries instead of belgium".
They should make reworks for India, China, Japan, USA and make Egypt a country under British occupation like India or Malaysia, like how it was irl. There are lots of things that don't make any sense in the current focus trees for these countries too.
Another thing that bothered many players is the fact the update was called "Bolivar" but included focus tree for literally every country BUT the Bolivarian nations. Yes they added decisions and events but compared to fully fledged focus trees, it pales in comparison.
I believe that the update was called Bolivar referencing the German “Operation Bolivar” that involved espionage in Latin America during World War II. Still, it would have been nice if Paradox had made some effort to put in some updates for the Bolivarian nations such as leader portraits and updating Venezuela and Peru’s starting ideologies. If Paradox does do a country pack for the Bolivarian nations, they’ll certainly have to put in some more effort to finding a name for the update.
@@OutdoorsmanJeremy watch them name it "Mesoamerica" or "Pirates of the Caribbeans"
All countries in the region should have had their own focus trees. This DLC was a lazy cash grab.
A new feature, and balanceing
Commonwealth Nations need an overhaul. 70day focuses for India to get 2 railways is insane..
I've said this for a while now - a minor change they need to make that would be a nice "minor" feature add:
Paratroopers should have the transports integrated into their costs and abilities. Transport planes are expensive and coordinating airdrops is click intensive. Make air transports dedicated for supply missions, and make paratroopers more production expensive but integrate the planes for the air drops
To be fair Glider planes where used quite heavily not full on transport planes in some cases... Surely that should be the middle ground for Paratroopers.
Not to mention you cant upgrade the Transport plane much... even with MIO.
I would not integrate planes in infantry units no matter what the unit is, simple due to the fact that that's 2 strictly opposite gameplay, one work on individual battles, the other work on global supremacy (would be nice tho if we could get "air battles" like the navy get, with for example air tiles as large as sea tiles, meaning your air drop could get shot down by AA in the middle of the air)
One thing I would do however is adding another air mission for transport planes simply named "paratroopers drop", meaning that you instantly know what planes are actually used for paras or for supply
(Even if realistically, para divisions were quite non-existant, the only example I could give for the time being is the 101th US para division, which is a SINGLE division in the entire US army)
Maybe another possibility would be to have a similar system as convoys, where you need to produce transport planes which will stockpile and as long as you have enought transport plane and air suppremacy you can paradrop.
@boatriple0watch then transport planes would need a secondary function outside of air supply
I believe adding an extra feature would be nice
Maybe porting the game to CK3 engine so you can play it even after 1943?
@@user-ck3bi7pv7u It works just fine for me even in the 1950s with a mid range pc
I don't think the game needs an extra feature I think they should just fix the features that are already in before they ask us for yet more money. It is so frustrating seeing the A.I. refuse to interact in a meaningful way with tanks for instance, and now there is talk of a Mech/AC/Truck designer when the A.i. barely uses mechanized and it is such a late game tech that you rarely ever see a significant amount of them with actual players anyways.
1 feature in the game + $9.99 = positive reviews imo
Their reason for not adding a feature is that a separate team is already working on a major update with features. So if they make a minor dlc with features, it wont work well with the other changes already being made. Since new features are added onto a pre-existing version. So it really throws the development cycle out of wack if multiple updates with features are being produced at the same time.
@@x-uca7465 Well then they shouldn't be surprised by poor reviews/sales then, imo. If you're creating a worse quality product because you want to create a better quality product later, then the worse quality product is going to perform worse than it otherwise would have, simple as.
@@johnteixeira6405A worse quality product? Country Packs have never been about adding features. They’re minor DLC which add flavor and tie fans over between major DLC. And Paradox games have always had that business model of looking to the future. It’s as if you never played paradox games before.
@@johnteixeira6405 I’m honestly fine with country, skin and music packs. They add flavor to the game which I like and keep me playing between major updates. But if you want to whine and be mad over trivial matters then go off. Not worth the energy imo since it’s just a game 😂
@@x-uca7465 The only other HoI4 country pack with no features is Bosphorus and that was better than Trial, don't be daft. Bosphorus wasn't even well received, yet Trial is still considered worse, that's pretty bad. You can be disingenuous as much as you'd like, this is a worse quality product than provided before, and your excuse given is: "Their reason for not adding a feature is that a separate team is already working on a major update with features."
Well ok, then as I said they shouldn't be surprised by worse reviews/sales. They made a dlc with no features in a part of the world that is effectively irrelevant to HoI4. But go ahead kiddo, claim I'm "whining" and "mad." That will SURELY make you seem like an adult.
I agree for the most part with your first few points. I personally don't think power creep is that big of a deal, especially with alternative history branches. So long as it's not messing with the historical playthroughs then whatever. Let the baby king of Rapa Nui inspire their divisions to do +40% attack!
I also don't think the country packs need features but you are right, given what you get, 10$ instead of 15$ would be a bit more palatable. The timing of inflationary price increases and ToA's release definitely didn't help it in the reviews.
Point #2 with shared focus tree content reminds me heavily of the Chinese warlords in a nutshell.
Thing is, with chinese warlords you actually compete against each other for chinese unification, so that's a way to make you want to play with all of them since they are very distinct from each other and so have various strategies
@@pricel141l They are all in different levels of strength, but they all ultimately have the same goal and no actual variation which rather hurts it IMO. Besides the commies, republicans, and Qing, everything else is just filler in comparison.
@@TurbulentEitriI think they could refining power struggles more by making their AI more active and aggressive for their focus tree. Currently, they would do nothing after certain point because if they do they would unlock political power struggles; I'd say this is intentional by Paradox. I mean, historically, Chinese power struggles is still a thing even in between second Sino Japanese war so holding back their political focus progress is kinda ahistorical IMO.
They did the same with the 3 Baltic States... Its getting ridiculous just how lazy Paradox has become...
In terms of Finland, yes they are massive OP. But for latin america I felt they were very weak. Brazil starts with so many negative modifiers, that when you get rid of them, then you are already left behind. Resources are so hard to come by also.
Brazil starts really dead. You cant make dockyards and even when you remove this negative debuf you have after the debuff of factory production reduction that slow down everything. And you have to run and take some research slots. Its terrible.
You have negleted states and need 5 focus to remove and start do building in RURAL AREAS. Its desgusting even think that you will waste a gigantic amount of time only to open building slots.😒
@@borali26 I would have been fine with it if that was only the historical path, and that other paths quickly got rid of the debuffs so you could actually play the game. It would make sense for the historical path in order to basically keep them out of the war until much later but having that for every path just makes it a dead country like you said.
Dave you nailed the big one for me; its an expansion, DLC, country pack, whatever that has no effect on the world if I don't play South America. I bought it day 1, played all the nations, had fun but when I went back to other countries I realized it was a completely worthless DLC outside of those 3 countries (the 2 "extras" are... pretty meh). Paying $15 for something that won't affect the game for 95% of the countries just feels bad.
All of South America would have to have a focus tree for me to buy the DLC.
1) Maybe a river boat designer for small boats that you can use only on rivers like the Amazon, but also elsewhere (Nile, Yellow River, Mississippi, Dnipro, etc.). THAT would have been cool. Faster troop movement, easier river crossings, maybe mobile logistics to act like a weaker supply hub, anti-air, shore bombardment, etc..
2) Country packs should come with new models for those countries' planes and tanks. I use the plane designer a lot, and it gets super-boring using the same picture over and over again.
B) Playing as Paraguay, I was kind of okay only having 4 research slots. That's because I was able to get some really good research speed bonuses, which let me do more research per slot and ALSO get some technology early.
There's also a lot of inconsistencies between paths. For example, Communist Brazil gets cores on all of South America with a single 35d focus, Communist Argentina can get cores on all states via 75pp decisions per state from their final focus, Communist Chile on the other hand needs all of South America as puppets or occupied territory first before they can core anything else at all.
Variety and flavor is all fine, but jeez, some are just way more effort and suffering for the same end result.
The way I saw the countries was that.
1. Brazil got cores the easiest and had the most manpower but had the worst buffs.
2. Chile got the largest end goals and buffs, but had the smallest population and ability to do it.
3. Argentina was a mix of the two between decent pop and buffs.
One thing you didn't mention but which I think is important for the difference of ToA and BftB is the pricing BftB is only 10$ while ToA costs 15$ while having similar content
Update legacy features. You got an entire button on the top right for the outdated world tension mechanic but for war you got a permanent notification...
If they add a feature to something as niche as this you'd end up with a way worse reception because "why are you forcing me to pay for South American trees on the other side of the world from any WW2 fronts, just so I can get access to this feature everyone wants and needs to use?". That's why this was a country pack in the first place.
I'm sure some people would say that but I wouldn't be among them. If that's the reason they made the dlc this way then they shouldn't be surprised by poor sales.
@@johnteixeira6405 I don't think we've seen any indication that it is selling worse than expected for them though. It just has horrible reviews, which is a whole other issue that they dedicated a dev diary to examining not long after release.
@@GorgoPrimus It requires more convoluted steps to assume that it's selling fine than to assume it's selling poorly when there are large amounts of discussion around how it isn't worth buying, and even many people saying they aren't buying it because of various reasons. If they created a whole dev diary regarding the poor reviews I think it's safe to say that the sales were effected. Companies are not roused into action without monetary incentive. I think assuming it's NOT selling worse is kind of ridiculous.
If they were to add a feature to a country pack for niche countries, then the feature needs to be pretty niche as well (like an armoured car designer) to be acceptable.
I wish that the balance of power mechanic made some return in this DLC, along with perhaps more portraits for your generals and advisors, as some in the featured nations are still generics. Also if they touched up the actual Bolivarian nations just a little bit by putting Venezuela and Peru’s starting leaders as non-aligned, and adding basic leader portraits and parties for these nations, as they are still featured in a handful of basic events in game. And the ability to Balkanize Brazil like you can in KR/KX. Also some of the icons for infantry equipment were generic, as were the names of the equipment (I also noticed this in some previous DLC before as well).
NO, Balance of Power is horrible
They really need to add new research slot for chile Native American path. I’ve been playing chile a lot and it’s really fun but it’s frustrating only being able to have 3 max as some paths
I bought AAT because of the feature, i just played Finland and Sweden this year
I actually really like a train designer. Like image if you could make a supply hub use a few different types of trians like an AA train that can defend itself against logi strike but it requires you to build extra AA or a super fast train that could increase supply in an area but has a higher chance of getting in an accident
I bought because I am brazilian and I mean, MEXICO got a FT way before Brazil did and they never even participated in WW2. In the end, Paradox realized there is a significant player base in Brazil that they needed to appease and they released ToA, but yeah, a truck/AC/mec designer would have been nice
Imagine being Belgian and still waiting on a focus tree....
@@bv2623 I KNOW, RIGHT??? Siam, Belgium and Brazil are the longest ones in waiting, Brazil finally got one. I cry in solidarity for my Belgium brothers and sisters who are still waiting.

Too expensive for stolen modder content that already exists for free. On top of that, modders fix their bugs, Paradox doesnt - they still haven't fixed the "balance of power" for Italy - another DLC that has mostly negative reviews.
THIS honestly.
Company-wide issue too. Last 3 EU4 DLCs have been stolen content from mods for $20 each smh.
Rockstar's example - they take over community made ideas in their GTA servers, then sell those ideas as their own DLC. Doing that for 10 years now.
I agree completely with all these points about the DLC.
On a side note I believe that Brazil did send some soldiers to WW2, through I'm not 100% on the details.
Out of all the Latin American countries, they were the only one that sent troops. 25,800 men, constituting one whole division, fought in the Italian peninsula under American strategic command. The division took some 20,000 Germans as PoWs and lost around 450 of its own men. The force also included the Brazilian navy and its 3 capital ships and 2 fighter squadrons that actually saw a disproportionate amount of action, being later highly condecorate by the American Air Force.
The whole gimmic of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force was that people in the country kept saying, through a popular expression, that "it was easier for a snake to take up smoking than for Brazil to fight in the war." So when the government actually declared war on Germany in 1942, after massive loss of lives and goods from u-boat raids, the Brazilian soldiers felt really compelled to fight as hard as they could, despite their small numbers. Here's the Wikipedia article on it if you want a further reading: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Expeditionary_Force
I understand why this expansion is feature less. It was created in that way that people would not pressured to buy it. Imagine that Trial of Allegiance had plane designer, then you would be almost forced to buy it even though you would never want to play any country in South America and sparking even more outrage.
If country pack ought have feature, then they should be regional, in that sense that they do not influence balance of WW2 proper. E.g. they could expand on Monroe doctrine and local conflicts and call it a feature (which they did to some extend, but they could just push it even further). It would be relevant to the DLC, but it would not influence WW2 that much (with exception of maybe the moment and on which side USA joins the war if somebody tries meddle too much in Americas).
Add focus trees for the rest of South America and the armored car designer and it would be worth the price
The biggest issue for me is the repetitivity of each focus tree, i started feeling it when playing arms against tyranny where every country exept finland was basicaly the same gamplay for world conquest (unite scandinavia, defeat the uk using stolen scandinavian fleats, defeat ussr, betray germany etc etc.) And trail of aligiance is the same in worse, as you need to occupy all of the americas in order to get into europe, meaning additionaly to having to do the same game over and over all the superpowers stays up to late game, which lag the game a lot and make each game very time consuming with a potato pc
The feature should be a change in how expeditionary forces work, it would fit the theme.
Would be neat if lending equipment gave you MIO experience, or research buffs. So if you sent like 500 planes to China, it would give you something back.
make a video about predicting next DLC
i think it will be the middle east, or Belgium and Austria
i thought he did with germany and japan.
It's like offering a super in depth camalry division editor. I'm sure a lot of work could go into it, but camels just weren't that important in ww2 so people won't give money for it.
Had to buy it to host MP with my friends but I would have bought it sooner if the cost was lower and included content for the rest of S. America (Bolivia path to regain a coastline, as Peru revive the Incan Empire, Gran Colombia, &c.)
It should cost 7.99 €. But without Bolivar's Legacy related content, I would buy it only at 4.99 on discount. The only dlc worth 15€ are no step back, waking the tiger and man the guns. La resistance is worth 9.99€, By Blood Alone,Arms against tiranny same. BFB is worth 7.99€. TFV is a 4.99 one
With South America being famous for its rivers, forests and mountains it would have been a great opportunity to do something with Special Forces
I can proudly say that with my 3000 or so hours, I have never played any of the Nordic countries, South American countries or Switzerland after their DLC's got released.
I think a lot of people know how to play 2-3 countries very well. So after a DLC you play those countries again just to see if anything changed. In my case, I have to invest into defending the north as the USSR after the Nordic DLC. And admiral traits kind of fixed a lot of naval issues for Japan, but that is it. Naval design, production and combat still feels bad and ahistorical. I wished future dlcs impacted major powers more.
I actually like the IDEA of country packs. But not giving the whole south America was the thing that really disappointed me
For the life of me, i dont understand how SA got focus trees before the Pacific theatre
Agreed. I remember when AAT was coming out I was happy Finland was finally getting some love and talked with people who were upset it wasn't a SEA dlc, I could see their point but I still felt Finland should have been first. This I can't defend at all other than imagining that perhaps they are saving SEA for a future Japan Rework+SEA dlc, perhaps after a Belgium&Austria+Germany Rework dlc to finish Europe.
I like that DLC not having any features, just focus trees so I can just skip it without missing any in game mechanic
that dlc look like germany getting +100% attack bouns and coring all europe
Let's be fair, it's not the same. Also, Germany might not core all of europe but their military and industrial power is incredibly exaggerated in comparison to what it was in real life.
We got Italy rework and we got finally Nordic trees... I'm happy about that. South America is okay... it's pretty boring since the countries are mostly irelevant to WW2... However, it could bring one feature which I don't think is so hard to do... That is land distribution between owned puppets... And unifying them...
Next one... needs to be a relevant DLC... it means Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, JAPAN, Belgium.... needs new Focus trees... It's WW2 and Japan's focus tree is so outdated and uninspiring... Germany needs some creativity... etc...
I would happily buy this for half the price. It is such a tiny amount of content for one third the price of helldivers 2.
Paradox forgot to feature the true enemy of the south south nations, his true enemy, itself (they should put more features of inestability, riots, inflation, coups, etc)
Or the USA interfering any time a south american politician's new haircut is slightly left leaning :D
I disagree in some terms, its good to spoiler hidden paths in Archivements to have a direction
And timed ideas are feeling not as much fun as permanent ideas and buffs so it was ok for me only nerv spirit of the conquistadors
Motorcycle sidecar designer!
Give Paraguay and Uruguay a full focus tree
yeah price is the things really.. If sold for 2$ im sure review would be extremely positive. Other 15-20$ expension had new mechanic at least and devleopped threes for major country
Instead of 4 IC armored cars just make 2.4 IC interwar tanks with machine guns. If you research maintenance II and you want to burn 30 XP, then you can cut 10% off of that 2.4 IC (this is only 2.16 IC then). Some companies can lower the cost even further but depends on country. Lots of countries when capitulated or using recovery from general trait, nation trait, or maintenance will also get some captured light tanks to push into this role. The AI loves its light tanks and even the US late game has lots of light tank divisions.
Why pay 4 IC for the same thing that 2.4 or 2.16 IC can do? It is utterly ridiculous to have a bunch of tracked vehicles running around doing suppression but that's what the game allows as tanks have the same suppression as armored cars. No one would ever have tanks in this role as tracks are high maintenance when used so much and roads will get chewed up by tank tracks after a while even if they are tankettes. Wheeled armored vehicles historically were used for garrison duties. Also, real garrisons would have to balance between armored cars and softer infantry like motorized or cavalry. A real garrison division would have a couple armored car battalions, probably a recon armored car battalion, a few motorized or cav battalions, and an MP support battalion. People should be making BALANCED units for garrison duties but in game just making cheap light tanks or if you don't have as much industry and don't mind losing more people cavalry.
The only thing armored cars do in game is add a bit more recon which I find mostly pointless.
The best garrison in the game is one IW light tank with a machinegun. Or if you've researched MP (which I never do) then MP and 25 light IW tank battalions.
Armored cars are a complete waste of IC and research time which is sad. They were used quite a bit in WWII. I'd like to have armored car units in Africa and use them for recon and garrisons.
Org should be taken into account in battles with partisans and also soft attack and even breakthrough. Think about this. If you send crappy light tanks or armored cars out alone, they can easily be ambushed and destroyed. All the manpower of a tank or armored car unit is gobbled up with crews and maintenance personnel or 9 to 10 personnel per tank or armored car. Tanks and armored cars would have crews inside of 2 to 8 depending. Real garrisons would have motorized infantry out on patrols with armored cars as they could not patrol alone. Perhaps two armored cars and two infantry carrying trucks or maybe two armored cars and two cav or very poor nations just cav.
I'm not going to get this dlc unless there is a decent sale. The base price might have been justified if it included all of south america. Although, IMO, trying to unify all of south america is basically a world conquest since your target will join the faction of a major, and world conquests become boring

With the coring feature i feel it needs to be quick just because it would take too long with how slow hoi4 becomes lategame
add truck and mech designer
Meme achievements are good
Give focus trees to the rest of South America.
They need to add a "manifcaturing factory" where you make trains, cars, and planes for the civilians. They increase or decrease based on the year and the model stability, man power increase, population, and political power to some extent.
Not true on the Poland part, I found the Anastasia path on the first day
I dont like focus trees, and the research system with slots and teams.
it somehow railroads the game.
Research should be ressource based like in HOI 3
Super weapons late game ?
people knew about senor hitler a long time ago
10:46 Even then, that would be a tad arbitrary.
Disagree with having a world wide feature like the armour car designer in this DLC. Currently if you have no interest in the south american countries you dont need to buy this DLC. But is there was a game gaming mechanic in the DLC you would feel you need to buy it just for that.
Leave the game changing mechainics to the major DLCs and have these minor country packs just change those countries.
I honestly would've liked to just see a Convoy designer. There are already multiple events in this DLC in which a convoy was sunk and either lowers relations or gets South America countries involved in the war. Maybe they could have let you design your own and if they were better than the historical, the chances of them being sunk and the event firing would be different. Not a major change but would've been an interesting addition to the game. (Such as the ability to add AA, armor, speed, cost etc)
As said fifth research spot and $10 price. Wasted opportunity because the South America alt history theme appeals to me.
Since it's only focus trees it should only be 5 USD or less. Everyone could easily just download a mod for free to add focus trees and they already are. Without any new features it should be a much lower price. If they added a feature then I could see a 10 USD price tag as realistic.
I stopped playing after the introduction of trains. Don’t get me wrong I think it makes the game a ton more realistic. It wasn’t the mod it self, it was the straw that broke me from a complex pleasure too just, …. I ended up concentrating and focusing too much for it to be pleasurable. Maybe it’s me, but after a day of work I’d like to “play” a bit more and not have to figure out how it works all over again. Now I just watch you and Alex the Rambler play. I love the way both of you Describe the game and seem to really have fun with it. But they lost me as a customer. Which is kind of a bummer.
It would be soooooo much better if they took it down and reorganized it. Because it is far from intuitive and super weirdly arranged. We all accept it and just deal with it but, it just keeps getting worse. Blasphemy I know but…… Hearts of iron V Maybe it’s time.
This higher priced "country expansion" being not as creative as the Union y Libertad mod is just sad.

List is fairly simple and doesnt need an entire video.
1. German Focus tree and rework
2. Japan Focus tree and rework
3. that is it... Trial of Allegiance fixed
South American Focus copy paste just like the Baltic States and the Chinese Warlords.
No events for Argentina with the German Navy, wasn't the (edit) Admiral Graf Spee cornered in an Argentine port?
No Venezuela focus when they are Fascist and could have had paths with Germany/Italy/Japan?
Paradox wants 15 bucks without adding a feature? As 90% of players will almost ignore fully the DLC. A new feature assures they wont. Run out of ideas? Not a good look
Edit: it was the Admiral Graf Spee not the Tirpitz
I think if this DLC had been maybe $2.99 it would have "Overwhelmingly Positive" for it's ratings. I think it's excellent that they have taken boring countries that no one ever played and made them interesting, but since they are still minors, the pricing for this update was entirely wrong. That is why it has such negative reviews. Very poor value for the price.
Integrating is just fine imo. All nations are just created ones, they speak the same language, so it wouldnt make sense to make it a pain to integrate them
An armored car/ truck designer sounds ridiculous. Why overly complicate such an insignificant part of a game that already has a high time investment and learning curve for new players? I’d rather features that speed up gameplay, not slow it down further.
All I was saying was hypothetical. The armoured car example was something you can optionally opt out of
Top fix: make it free!!
A Brazilian colonial empire
Toooo daggg hiii
6:30 *laughs in En Union Y Libertad mod*
Truth is that Paradox is lazy and greedy, it is that simple and it shows.
Honestly I just don't care about South America in Hoi4, it's pretty damn irrelevant to the game. I don't want to spend $15 bucks on it. Maybe if it was like $5 I'd pick it up just to be "feature complete" but I just don't really value the DLC very highly. If this DLC included something outside of South America, somewhere relevant to the average Hoi4 game, then I'd probably have picked it up despite not caring much for the rest of the features. But for what it is, I just don't want to pay that much for it.
"Hilter" is not a spelling error, but a little town in Germany. Some of my schooltime comrades came from there :)
*TRAIN DESIGN IN SOUTH AMERICA??? WHO ASKED FOR THIS????!!!*
Removing cores is never a good addition, so that's a fail from you. If you wanna talk about similar focus trees, why not adress the exact same military branch for the nations? that is a problem, they all had different military situations at the start of 1930s. About the power creep, it really just is that older nations are old, coutnry packs could come with some reworks for major nations, or nations that are really old, like the Soviet DLC reworked Poland. Research slot you are completely right it just seems like bullshit and honestly... not kind to not say something else. I argee on the features lacking a lot. for features I'd think immigration or actual economic decision to bring investors, Brazil was tricking German and US into investing in the country, it erven got a whole ass steel mil company (that is not represented in the focus tree, and yes I think it lacks resources in many countries too.). as for the price, I already paid if they are not going to refund me the price I've paid, I don't really care, but I wouldn't reccomend the dlc until tehy fix it properly.
to be honest they could just go 3 things. Make this DLC more expensive, add whole South America, add a new mechanic like maybe centralisation of states(for example Centralised state would have faster construct speed if there were more factories in it and vice versa for decentralized
南美洲北部还会有焦点树吗？我真的很想在秘鲁踢球。
Yeah, IMHO, they released something that could easily be done better in a free mod, added nothing more broadly to the game and is overpriced. They really need to do some get togethers with Tinto, because EU DLCs have been really good lately while honestly HoI has dropped off.
I liked AAT, personally, but I understand the sentiment.
Lower price to $5.99. That's all.
I liked this expack, but what ever.
But the 5th research isn't an issue because those 4 crank out research with high enough % modifier to have equal research per day to slots?
Or am I losing my marbles here with those research techs?
Seems like most of these suggestions are just to make it less fun to play in these regions.
1 way to fix Trial of Allegiance - don’t buy it. This will remind Paradox to keep Hoi4 interest up they need to make more effort in DLCs. What are they trying to be - Creative Assembly?
So paradox released unbalanced dlc with way overpowered bonuses, let all the youtubers make videos saying 'paraguay is op!!!!!' Then nerf the bonuses. Shameless.
FIX PEACE CONFERENCE!!!!!
I think they shouldve never made a South America DLC.. like at all
This is quire overpriced for what it's worth. This is an irrelevant continent in the scope of wwII so it feels meh, when countries like Germany and Japan are still craving for modernization
I would've bought this sooner if it included AUSTRIAN FOCUS TREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How to make ToA better? Return money
Its a money grab expansion.
Played brazil. Its desgusting. they put 70 days in completely meh focus like the monarchist path. 70 days to get a liberia war goal??? really??? bolivia war goal again??? to fix negleted states you need research 5 FOCUS. its insane. also they made a generic military branch without considerate the time you waste in your own focus.😑 everything is very bad. I prefer the generic focus tree, honestily.
i have bikes ( BUT bikes doesnt work with mass mobilization. bugged)
Agree with you, 4 slots even when you eventually get ahead AND you dont have the mios. Its terrible.
I always try to unify with Portugal, its the only interesting thing in this branch. its completely random when they acept unification or join research or just refuse and it cost only 35 days. after that ANOTHER focus in 70 days you can puppet or gain a warfocus. Its just stupid and terrible.
Communist brazil gets free cores on most of South America, then once you take them you're basically as strong as the USA.
Brazil starts really dead. You cant make dockyards and even when you remove this negative debuf you have after the debuff of factory production reduction that slow down everything. And you have to run and take some research slots. Its terrible.
You have negleted states and need 5 focus to remove and start do building in RURAL AREAS. Its desgusting even think that you will waste a gigantic amount of time only to open building slots.
@@borali26 We must be playing a different Brazil because every time I played it I ended up dominating the entirety of the Americas. All these new countries are about expansion, not slowly building up. You have to do lightning wars to unite South America or fall into obscurity. The same goes for most countries in the game maybe apart from the US and USSR
Treaty of aligence isn't bad yall just spoilt and think that just because one dlc had added a feature all do and all focus trees have to be huge or there're bad and yall wont like it because there too small for you or they aren't r56. If you want it to be like r56 then just don't buy the dlc and play r56. Paradox didn't want to make it big or the best thing ever because that wasn't thier vision for hoi4. That is why they made it cheaper (dlc cost £16.75 normally but this one costs £12.79). I think you all should just be more grateful
I checked steam and the only dlc the community actually liked was no step back the others were mixed/kinda hated. So from that I understand that the community just would have hated the dlc no matter what.
bootlicking fanboy detected
@@szymon_sowa What are you talking about? Even Battle for the Bosphorus is cheaper than this DLC and I can say it's truly better. TOA literally costs like a expansion (and they grew up the prices of them).
Recycled millitary paths, bad made provinces and states, doesn't include all of South America, bad made focus trees and things like Inca empire is from Chile.
This DLC is not also bad; but also disrespectful
Actually I believe you all should consider yourself lucky that paradox even gave us a dlc/country pack because paradox could have just said "we aren't updating the game anymore because you're not going to like it anyway so we ain't even going to try. Instead we will focus our efforts on other projects" and personally I think they should have because we don't deserve dlc and it's not upto us if we get a dlc it's paradox's also dlc isn't a requirement it's a privilege and we should be more thankful because if we were starving and someone gave us bread what you should do is thank them and no complaints like "seriously bread I wanted a big mac" because that's just not what we do. If I was paradox I would have just said "you know what update the game yourself through mods or something because it's pointless to try to please those who can't be pleased and knowing ya'll you probably won't like the mode either and we also won't list the game or dlcs on steam becausewhat'sthe point of selling a game that clearly no one likes". How about next time instead of hating evey paradox even hints about we instead learn some manners and thank paradox for allowing us to have more content.
@@Eldesmentidordecreepypastas sounds to me like ungratefulness and actually how about you just play your little r56 mods or whatever and not buy the dlc and miss out. Also battle for bosphorus has 'mixed' rating on steam meaning the community likely hated that to and the only thing saving it is the price tag. The dlc that I personally didn't like is la resistance and don't believe it deserves the price tag but I still brought it. Why? Because I know that paradox tried there best and maybe someone else likes it and I'm grateful that they atleast I got a dlc(and also brought it because it was on sale)
Just delete it the whole dlc its irrelevant
