No, I don't mean the fucked up real life economy, I mean the fucked up V2 economy. The black hole that is late nineteenth century economics is lolariously silly and I'm wondering if Paradox will be doing anything to fix that.
I was hoping that they would fix the foreclosure crisis, unemployment, and the lack of confidence in the banking industry.
Don't forget the crippling dept!

Or the repeated involvement of GP's in wars that they are either not anyway involved with , i.e, no sphere, no alliance and the attacker has a low infamy (Speaking form experience)?

What part of the economy needs fixing ?
Why would you industrialize, out of curiousity? Besides to get liquor for Guards, of course.
Why does the economy need to be fixed? Because Victoria 2 is a military game. But the Victorian age was the advent of modern economics and industry was the driving force behind politics and wars in this age. Now it's a pathetic backseat to military conquest and completely disjointed from technological advancement. There's a single world currency, there's a single world market, a shirt in India costs the same as a shirt in Manhattan. I can produce the world's supply of artillery but not restrict my enemies from buying them, thus crippling their ability to combat me. I can setup an automobile industry in America a decade before Britian, but the UK can dominate the market mere years after it's first factory. I cannot have an economic sphere of influence over an area of China. This just off the top of my head. The V2 economy completely hampers the reasons I want to play this game. I worry that Paradox turned what could have been a multi-faceted game into just another war game. I'll wait to see if a house divided is intriguing, but this game will not flourish until the economic model is made much more realistic.
