What is developer's favourite upcoming title: Sengoku or Crusader Kings II ?

For any of the Paradox team, what is your favorite non PC game?

Do you mean board games or console games? My favourite boardgames are Talisman and Munchkin and for console games I must say the Assassin's Creed "trilogy", even though the first game was rather mediocre. I like Angry Birds and Sword and Sworcery on iPod/iPhone.

I have been/am working on both games and I must say CK2, mostly because I have done more work for it and it feels more like "my" project than Sengoku. Both are great games though.

Resident Evil V, big time! That is the most fun I've had with a co-op game, it's fantastic.
As for boardgames, since SolSara brought it up, I have two favourites: RoboRally and Betrayal at House on the Hill. Everyone needs to play RoboRally.

Oh, I have not played CKII yet, so I'll have to say Sengoku. They are both a bit different for me, since I've never played the old CK, so it will be interesting to indulge more in these two.
 
Roborally rocks. For boardgames, I also can heartily recommend Evo, but it's hard to find these days because the developer/publisher/whatever went bankrupt ages ago. Great fun leading yoru dinosaurs through global warming though! :)

CK2! I spend all Wednesday play- uh, testing it. Disloyal duke eh? *Assassinate* Muhahaha!

I hear Podcat's favorite is Sengoku though. He plays such long and interesting games :D
 
I'm going to fill in the blanks here. Darkrenown obliterated Podcat about five minutes into the first multiplayer session with Sengoku.
It is now more obvious when someone declares war on you...

Well.. podcat has a proud tradition of losing in multiplayer games...
 
Counters in HOI3/SF/FTM...

Background: I've recently been trying to improve the graphics on the HOI2 counters for Darkest Hour. I posted here recently, and Johan kindly replied explaining that with 8 bit counters and a 256 colour limit, that not much could be done. I wanted to enlarge the flag to fill the full size of the counter (or thereabouts), I succeeded, but the quality was poor and I could not find anything on the web to help me out.. well not for FREE.. and free is where I'm at right now (unemployed)..

I have been very much encouraged by the recent spate of Counters mods for HOI3. But although they look good, I'm now thinking of taking up this "venture" to see if I can do a job on them myself.

BEFORE I start... can the HOI3 graphics person please explain the limitations of changing the counters for HOI3.. Will I meet the same limitations as in HOI2?.. Yes, I understand that now they are 24-bit counters (?) instead of 8-bit counters in HOI2...

... If I want to have different counters for different counties... well at least the 6 main countries.... am I again limited to changing the sprites into counters as here Here http://www.designmodproject.de/forum...f=1469&t=18072 is your solution.

Can you please advise?
Can you please point me towards any modding for HOI3 docs you may have on the forum?

I'm much obliged and sorry for taking up your time.
 
Hi, you really want to be in our Modding forums for these games, also external links are not allowed (although the one you gave does not work). thanks for understanding.
 
Is there a specific place to post errors on the site? Examples: Spelling mistakes, inconsistencies between release dates on the Press Page and the Game Page, etc.
And technically, the first page on this post is wrong. Now, you can answer "When is CK2 coming?" as it has a release date. :p
 
Does Paradox playtest patches and expansions? Because it doesnt looks like it - many people (myself included) reported that in "HoI3 For the Motherland" CVs and BBs are now almost impossible to sink - I run 10 hands off games (using 3.04 patch) (as Cuba) which I let run untill 1945 and I NEVER saw more than 10 capital ships as sunk.

they do and they are aware of that problem. what exactly is the purpose of this question?
