Paradox Interactive games

Which is rather ridiculously ahistorical, really.

Yeah, it doesn't actually represent the policy of any state until after the game's end date, and it makes playing the Manchu/Qing more or less impossible, from what I understand. It's kind of difficult to impose any other barriers to conquering vast tracts of more or less pointless territory for the AI, though.

You could always play a mod. Some of them has nice borders.

I'll probably mod the map myself if I'm not satisfied with what they serve up this time.

I'm currently stymied by the fact that Strannik's heavily revised HDM for MMP2 is not compatible with the vanilla game. Most of the map mods that I would like solely for the map come with baggage. In the course of my current heavily modded Byzantine game, though, I've started to get pissed by how crummy the map is, and I miiiiight start modding it myself. That takes a helluva lot more effort than editing text and localization files, though.

The problem with the excellent modded maps is that they aren't compatible (?) with the converters, so you are pretty much stuck at the game that features them.

I had this problem with the Watkabaoi map for For the Glory: infinitely better than the original map, but it doesnt convert to Victoria.

 

[Tee Kay]

Better than the current version where those province are either inhabited by easily conquered "cities" of nomads which can be taken over by non-nomadic civs (as opposed to just the nomads up and movign their tent next province over and leaving you with a very empty province), or inhabited by villages that commit collective suicide the moment 1000 Europeans walk into the province.

Much better.

The only example of the former is the Shamanist Oirat Horde in the Gobi. The other pagan states in the game weren't nomadic. (I'm assuming by easily conquered you mean pagan states with no forts which can be seized like a colony).

The latter is admittedly silly but massive depopulation did happen when 1000 Europeans walk anywhere in the Americas, so in term of the end result it's pretty realistic.

True. I believe nomadic states will have a chance to "civilize" though, as it says so in the Developers Diary.

Mod Victoria?

 

[Evie]

The latter is admittedly silly but massive depopulation did happen when 1000 Europeans walk anywhere in the Americas, so in term of the end result it's pretty realistic.

Massive depopulation? To an extent.
General extermination? Nowhere near close except in a few areas where the natives were specifically enslaved.

Most everywhere else there were native settlements the whole time, and western settlements efforts "kicked them out" (or shipped them to reservations), from 1607 onward.

 

[Maniacal]

Upwards of 90% of native americans were wiped out by european diseases, but it didn't happen overnight. The diseases spread along the trade routes. Though the "amrch a unit of troops into native territory and they ALL DIE ISNTANTLY is stupid.

 

[Evie]

Upward of 90% over several centuries, and with several areas being far worse affected than others.

And another thing to note - the population figure given for the natives (eg, 1000 in one province, 9000 in another) are already pretty much post-90% (there are what, 5, 6000 in all of New england?), pretty much. So the game first auto-kill in its setup the 90% who died from plagues (fair, as those deaths were largely unavoidable), and then add to that a "free" 100% death rate once westerners march into the province.

EITHER you do a 90% die-off in the setup, or a 90% die-off when europeans march into the province. Not 90% in the set-up and 100% when europeans march in - there were natives in pretty much every part of the Americas, except a few, in significant numbers, for most of the Europa era.

 

[Dachs]

The problem with the excellent modded maps is that they aren't compatible (?) with the converters, so you are pretty much stuck at the game that features them.

That's actually not a problem for me, because I don't care about carrying over converted settings. I don't get to 1821 in most of my games anyway, and even if I did, EU3-V2 converters are not particularly good. Besides, most of the end results of my EU3 games tend to be rather...one-sided, and not particularly conducive to a fun game in V2. If I ever did want to carry over a setting, I'd just mod V2 instead of trying to convert.

True. I believe nomadic states will have a chance to "civilize" though, as it says so in the Developers Diary.

That's not really a helpful characterization either, but whatever.

 

[Ashurdan]

I have a physical copy of EU 3 complete and want to buy heir to the throne, but I heard there are problems buying it off steam if you don't have complete on steam... is that true? Should I get it off of gamersgate or impulse then? Anyone who can help it would be appreciated,

Ash

 

[Maniacal]

It requires EU3 Complete or EU3 In Nomine (a previous expansion) to play, I'd say just go and buy it off of GamersGate (which was created by Paradox).

 

[Rub'Rum]

Yeah, use GamersGate. For any game, as far as I know, you can't buy expansion packs on Steam if you don't have the steam version of the vanilla game. Steam is compatible with Steam and that's it really.

 

[NBAfan]

Never buy Paradox Games off Steam, Gamersgate is always better for Paradox.

 

[Ashurdan]

Okay, I will, thanks to everyone who replied... also does anyone know when Divine Wind will be coming out?

 

[Maniacal]

December supposedly.

 

[ZeletDude]

Hey does anyone want to do a HOI 2 (doomsday) Multiplayer game tomorrow at like 5 or 6 (depending on my friend) American EST Time? Just PM me or something to let me know..

 

[cardgame]

I'm game but I don't know if my schedule will allow it, it wmost likely will but no guarantees

[Maniacal]

Holy massive change log batman.

 

[conception]

This makes me want to load up the game when I get home from Thanksgiving. Some of the things fixed (like full annexation now being allowed) could hamper my enjoyment of games. It always really stunk to have to fight several wars to annex a small country that could have easily been annexed in one.

 

[madviking]

Well this can't be good, my game doesn't start up after the patch...

Bummer, but thanks for posting this because when I patch I'll try and keep a folder with the unpatched game just in case.
