Yeah but normally Germany invaded the Soviet Union during spring and summer 1941, Japan attacks USA in late 1941, early 1942 at least in my last games.
It's okay for me if Germany attacks the Soviet Union during Spring-Summer 1941, as long as they don't reach Moscow before Winter. For the Japanese attack in Pearl Harbor, it must happen after the German attack on the SU. Summer 1941 is too early, but any time during Autumn-Winter is approximately okay.

yes and Iraq should only turn fascist once the allies in the West have been defeated, Greece and Yugoslavia have been defeated.
 
I resurrected this ancient account just to give this a red 'X' and ask what in the world were you thinking?!

Please make it easier for Communist Austria to provoke a revolution.
For example, like in India:
Stability less than 35
Support for communism more than 30
Or like in Germany.

Paradox Gold Team, I very rarely comment on this forum, but I feel compelled to do so now. I strongly urge you to reconsider the direction of your development. This is beginning to be ridiculous, as many other posters have articulated here already. You're going to lose out on revenue if you keep going like this. Please start developing the game to be faithful to history to a much higher degree, and mechanically sound (so that I don't have to use the console and "fix" mods as extensively). I would not have paid for this if this is what I knew exactly what was on offer. I'll simply stop buying if there's no course correction. You need to address your back-log of issues at this point; I trust that you're aware of what I mean.

Like others have expressed, I've poured over 4000 hours of my time on this game, including modding time. I've participated in communities such as World Ablaze (who do a fantastic job of being faithful to history and being competent devs), I've organized many private "vanilla+" moderately modded game sessions, and played countless amounts of single-player campaigns that were historical. Citing this passion, I'm also now concerned for this game's trajectory. This is a sentiment I seem to share with many others.

Just a friendly reminder that the topic of this thread is discussion of

Dev Diary - Prototype Vehicles Unit Pack​

Please restrict your comments to this topic, if you wish to discuss other related topics or other DLC then start a new thread on that topic.
Thank-you for helping us keep the forum organized and following the Code of Conduct.
 
Just to ease the amount of pressure on developers: this 3D models pack was intended to be released in Q2. The "Q3" thing was a mistake, according to Arheo's statement in October 2024, right after Expansion Pass announcement.

For some reason, PDX_Per made it look like the release date was moved... Dreadful mistake, considering all the backlash towards the "sooner release".

It’s a caterpillar! It’s a snake! No.. It’s.. a tank?!
We're definitely open to other model updates. Some of the basegame models have been around for a decade now, but there's also room for some other cool stuff.

I don't know what to say anymore. Maybe I am getting too old and maybe this stuff works out for you guys, but for me it's sad to see what HoI has developed into when I was on for the ride since 2005... I was totally fine with king Wojtek easter egg and alt-history. But focusing on memes and giggles, what kind of crowd are you actually attending to? Naval warfare is a mess, air warfare is laughable, land battle UI is questionable, soo much room for improvement for defensive gameplay, diplomacy and espionage, GoE is...what it is. Lets drop some more memes. Good content for some, I guess, I don't know. You lost me on this game.

I honestly don't understand why these 'prototype' vehicles come by when we're still forced to use riveted (Turan-like) models for MBTs while playing minors. There's basically one 3d model for all tanks. I strongly disagree with your priorities even in this particular niche.

This would be an incredibly easy fix as well.

Just make the Centurion, Patton and T-54 2D & 3D art available to all tags. Maybe the E-50 as well.

Or at the very least let each tag have access to one of them.
