Research is the same as in HoI 2 only you no longer choose a tech team, you choose a manufacturer for your tanks and planes and he gives you a research bonus. I mean given the size of Moldova you'd think they could squeeze a test site in there with those 6 factories, but nope. What I do not understand though is why a rocket test site or nuclear plant takes up a factory slot. Same goes for infrastructure and defensive utilities. You no longer build factories in every single town and village, instead provinces have factory slots and you can choose to build military or civilian factories. Trade is very simple, just ask for how much you want and if you have convoys and free civilian factories you will get it.Ĭonstruction is a lot more streamlined. You can either produce them from your provinces or trade for them. There are 6 types of resources (oil, steel, rubber, and 3 types of rare metal). The economy is also simplified quite a bit, which is good, and unit production is a lot more logical now: you make equipment and train soldiers to use that equipment.
They knew why the put a link to the wiki straight in game. The game is absolute at explaining things, even for P-Dox veterans. You 'll struggle a couple of times because the game insists on thinking that you want your advance to extend to only one province instead of the whole front even though you never let go of the right mouse button.Ĭombat is fun and taking over Europe is easier than ever, though it also feels a lot less rewarding. On the bad side the planning tools are rather simplistic (4 options + add new units and delete plan) and occasionally buggy. Most of the fighting is done via plans - you tell your units where and how to advance and they will follow up on those orders. You now feel like a general in charge of armies instead of a corporal or captain in charge of units, though you can still control the units. That being said much of the tedium of the previous games has been removed. Armand Calinescu head of state? PNL a conservative party? Gheorghiu Dej and Petru Groza selectable liberal ministers in 1936? Antonescu as head of the Iron Guard? Tatarescu and Patrascanu leaders of Antonescu's party? Whaaaat
Not to mention the absolutely research they did for everybody outside the big 6. Interface is ugly and unintuitive and overall the game feels shallower than previous HoIs. On a system than can run EU 4, CK 2, and Stellaris perfectly on low settings this game struggles even on bare minimum after 1938-1940, and the graphics have nothing to do with it as the fps pops back up when I pause.
I've only played it for about 5 hours on a friend's account but here are my first impressions:
