      So they're preventing you from exploiting the game... by forcing you to produce more guns which are basically universally good for practically any playthrough rather than build a bunch of the other crappy equipment you're almost certain to replace within a couple years anyway. Yeah, okay. Thanks Paradox, I sure do hate making more guns 🥴

  • @FLUX.2226
    @FLUX.2226 Рік тому +131

    I still think it's a good change, it feels more realistic even if it makes little difference gameplay-wise. Because historically, there was no magic barrier that prevented Germany from doing Anschluss before 1938 either, it just happened to be that date where they were able to do it. And now we also need to have an army that's actually decently equipped to be able to pull it off. And if you want to rush that, sure, go ahead. I doubt that Paradox wants to completely prevent an early Anschluss.

      @@CatnamedMittens Not implausible by itself, but the manpower requirement seems to be meant as a "you need to appear intimidating enough towards the rest of the world in order to force Anschluss", at least that's how I see it. But if you just field 500k men without a single gun between them, which is what you could do previously, that shouldn't be the case. Now you need to field an army that is both large enough and decently equipped, which feels more plausible to meet this intimidation requirement.

    I feel like instead of trying to stop a player from rushing Anschluss by mechanics they should instead give an incentive to not rush it. For example with the Sudetenland you lose access to the civilian factory advisor so it makes it not wise to rush the focus unless you are doing early war. Maybe an idea is that if you rush it you get a negative army exp modifier for 180 days if you do it before 1937.

    This comment section has been the most critical, anti paradox, anti HOI4 developer comment section I have ever seen.
    I personally like the change, I Have 2k hours and I know some of you sweaty nerds have 5k but please remember we are not normal players.
    If you can rush it then rush it.
    Y’all forget the point of the focus is to add flavor the point is that historically it wasn’t like Germany had to wait till a set date to Anschluss, rather Germany needed to be intimidating with an armed forces strong enough to strong arm Austria.
    Now you can argue about the arbitrary number but the people saying “they should just remove all requirements blah blah blah” have truly ascended to ridiculous levels.
    In the words of feedback “is HOI4 a history game or a a computer game? It’s probably somewhere in the middle.”
    This patch attempts to add a little to the history part of the game.
    (That all being said I think a more ideal barrier would be based on total IC of army and Airforce but there are a million reasons I can think of that they didn’t do that.)

      @TruckerDave650 I’m not convinced it was an attempt to make it harder as quite clearly it didn’t work and anyone could see that instantly. It was attempting to make the game more flavourful. Now people can argue if that’s a good idea or not and can argue if it succeeds at that goal or not. But at least see it for what it was instead of arguing about something it wasn’t intended to do

    • @finlayames6216
      @finlayames6216 Рік тому +2

      @TruckerDave650 no one’s scared of 500k untrained people with 12 rifles between them. But suddenly if they all have guns it’s a different story. Since the whole idea of needing manpower in the field is to basically intimidate other nations that if they didn’t submit they’d simply be invaded.
      Also as I’ve already said it’s obviously not hard to rush, if anything it’s more obvious. I don’t have that much experience in the game and never knew you could limit equipment hand out like it was needed to do previously, but simply needing a certain amount of guns produced anyone can work out the maths for. Its so simple that no one couldn’t work it out which would probably include paradox themselves.

      @TruckerDave650 from a historical PoV 38 is way too early, maybe when doing alt-hist paths that gib some extra WS or lower the focus's WT requirements

    Man i dont get it why they do this bullshit when anything they need its set up thet all required manpower need to be fully equipt

      They did that and because player can affect what "fully" equipt soldies have (aka nothing) people just did division that were fully equipts, but who did not have any guns :)
      This is much better now! Maybe push the needed guns little bit closer to what fully equipted divisions really need. But at least they nopw have some guns!

    Has anyone ever used the equipment restriction on divisions for anything else other than exploiting? I believe it is a feature that ought to be removed altogether.

      Yeah, I sometimes use it so something new I started producing will really only be supplied to my tank divisions by removing it from all other divisions,

      You can use it to restrict garrisons to old equipment only. Which is a valid use of this feature.

    Why not finally make that tanka with normal guns are usefull. And that the ai also builds tanks. Game is really stupid in this. Can t balance the game. And just skip ai to have tanks.

    This honestly just seems like a flavour thing. 500k untrained people with a total of 12 rifles between them isn’t going to make any countries bend over and submit, but if they all have a gun that’s a very different story.
