Hi all, I was just wondering if someone could explain to me how you play multiplayer HOI2... I logged into the Valkierey net and not one person was logged in, what am I doing wrong?

We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
When a game is launched from there, the players no longer show up. It is best if you post in the multiplayer forum that you are looking for a game or join one of the numerous games already in progress. Most MP groups are always in need of another player.
The best time to find other people waiting to play is in the early evening and the weekends.

I play all the time. Wait! What? This is a WW2 sim/strategy game? Oh, I thought it was a router difficulties/reconnection sim
But how is HOI2 to play on Multiplayer? Does it work well? Isn´t extremely strssful not being able to pause the game?? Which site should I visit if I want to play Multiplayer?
Well you can pause the game - that is the only plus...
Other than that it is prob the worst implementation of MP in any game created in the last 10 years.
The clients usually run a few weeks behind the host - ghost units appear and disappear - you cant change your tech research without pauseing - you cant do hardly anything without pausing - pausing causes the game to crash - saveing the game makes it crash - weather gets stuck(try playing the USSR were is has been winter for 4 years) - the list is so long they should have just cut MP from the game...
And that is if your lucky enough to even be able to connect to a game

Well, try posting here for a start
Valkryie-net is probably not the best place to get games on an impromptu basis, as you never know the quality/quantity of players available. Post your availability, connection speed, location, and any other preferences you have, and people will respond.
Oh, and despite what some posters say, the game is easily playable. Some people in this forum have post counts in the hundreds, and in all those posts have never said one constructive thing, only how bad they think paradoxs games are (amazing they still bother to play & post if thats actually correct).
