    Hey, I was looking for some HoI III tutorial, since I became a bit disappointed of HoI IV, and I have this game a couple of years on my Steam library, catching dust and all of that, so I said to myself: Now, you're going to learn this game! Googled for some tutorial and found yours. Awesome work, my dude. I always enjoyed Darkest Hour (A HoI II mod) and looking at this game a bit, it's not that different when you compare them.
    So, let's play! And I hope to someday play a MP game with you. Take care!

      Honestly this should be nearly impossible. The AI in Hearts of Iron 3 will basically just throw everything it needs at you. Try producing more supplies, and sell it to the AI. That way you can buy as many resources as you want.

  • @Medley3000
    @Medley3000 4 роки тому +3

    Watched your tutorial profoundly (thank you for the good illustration) but here are my questions:
    Why does my user interface look different to yours? I bought HoI III and it was automaticly updated by steam to the newest version but it looks different to your version.
    Example: In the intelligence window I do not have traffic light symbols to change the behavior of the spys but I do have boxes with tick marks.
    Other example: I have no lines between HQ and their subordinated units. Same in the HoI III manual the UI looks different than in your video.
    Do you use a modification?

    • @Engeri
      @Engeri  4 роки тому +2

      Thanks man, the reason your UI probably looks a bit different is because of what DLC you're running. Hearts of Iron 3 has a bunch of different DLC content such as Their Finest Hour and For the Motherland. Depending on which one you bought, the UI might look a bit different. If you have no DLC, it will look even more different. You can get all the DLC by buying them sparately or the Complete Edition on Steam. The lines between Divisions and HQ units should still be there though!

    After some experience with HoI4 and if you are on a buget, you can pick up the Black Ice mod. Totally brutal mod, very hard to master. It makes the game 15x harder. The only downside of the mod is that it forces you to play very historical, which can get boring after a while.

    I dont know if anyone reads these but how many troops can you have on one province? Is there a weight limit and does infrastructure affect it in some way?

    • @Engeri
      @Engeri  Рік тому +1

      Hi! Yeah I read basically all the comments I get.
      As you wrote yourself, the infrastructure is the limiting factor to how many troops can stay in a given province. Try using the supply mapmode, that will give you some more details if you are low on supply. Keep in mind that HOI3 also has two game modes related to supply. Normal mode distributes supplies manually from your capital, and in Arcade its just subtracted from your stockpile.
      So if you want higher supply in your divisions, make sure the infrastructure is up to par, and try using the supply mapmode. Hope this helps!

      You should be able to see that when you launch the game, it will tell you if you have them working or not. If it says Hearts of Iron 3: For the Motherland in the menu it will be working. It should also appear in the launcher.

    I heard so much hype about Hearts of Iron 4 so I evenentually bought it. I liked it, but yeah it wasnt that good. Especially if you don't have any DLC or Mods, its very lackluster. Never played 3, but it looks much better, I plan on getting it soon.

    • @Engeri
      @Engeri  Рік тому

      Hearts of Iron 4 has some advantages. It's easily moddable, Multiplayer works without the use of Hamachi or other tools. It is however exactly like you said, a super mega DLC game where content is added as DLC no matter how barebone the base game is. Mods make up for most of it though.
      Hearts of Iron 3 is more of a challenge, its harder to learn and harder to master - but once you pull though I think it can give some real long term enjoyment.
      Black Ice for Hearts of iron 3 also makes things a little more interesting. (it's a historical mod)

  • @Grivian
    @Grivian 3 роки тому

    I would like it if they added HQ units in hoi4, as well as being able to modify the military hierarchy structure. It should also be possible to execute Generals and it should also be possible for them to be captured or killed by the enemy. Also the resource food should be added, civilians should be able to die during invasions and bombings (reduction of population in states), and there should be a count of civilians deaths. I would also like that casualties differentiate between killed and captured. Because if you defeat a nation that holds many of your soldiers captured you should get them back in the manpower pool or as civilians. You should be able to decide how to treat POWs too.
    Another thing. I don't understand when I play as Germany that I never need to trade any steel, except in the end when I make 1000 infantry equipment per day. One big part of the war is that Germany needed Swedish steel and that was one of the reasons why they invaded Norway. But not in hoi4 so I don't bother invading Norway until I research atom bombs. The UK also never invades Scandinavia.
    I would like to see separate peaces and the possibility to sign a peace with a major nation without unconditional surrender. For example if Germany defeats the USSR and the UK. Now there is only the USA left in the war. In order for Germany or USA to win the war they have to sacrifice many men and it might take years. They should be able to make peace with each other. It should also be possible to peace out the UK during the blitz and with submarines. I have never figured out how to use subs without getting them all sunk withing 2 weeks but it might be possible. But let's say that you successfully sink most British convoys and annihilate their air force, you should be able to peace them out after some time. I don't see any real effects from winter either.
    And peace deals. I think they are fine in hoi4 but I would like one improvement. Before it starts (it could even be before the war) each nation picks each state that they want, if they want to puppet a country etc. Then during the peace deal you will choose as it currently is with one exception. If you pick a state that another country wants they can protest by spending some of their own participation points. You can either back down (you can not pick the state in this round or the next), or you can spend more participation points and take it anyway. This will worsen the relations between the two nations.
    Finally once the world war is over the world tension should go down and there should be an event addressing it.

    Having never played any hearts of iron games and trying to play hoi4 how can you call it simplified? It’s too complex at least for me. I have a job and don’t get days off in a row so I can’t play games that require hundreds of hours just to master.

    • @Engeri
      @Engeri  3 роки тому

      I totally get that, and that IS the main reason why Hearts of Iron 4 is so popular in comparison to Hearts of Iron 3. However, in the process of gross over simplification Paradox (developers) have removed a lot of what the old-school fans found to be fun in the game.
      The complex support structure, HQ system and more is the reason it is just a lot less fun than Hearts of Iron 3.
      If you want to experience a bit of both, try the HOI4 mod called Black ICE Historical Accuracy.
      It combines the best of both worlds.
