Is there some problem with patching HoI3 3.05? Neither Steam nor Impulse have game updated even 2 weeks since patch release. Since both services have same problem, could there be some problem with patch itself?
thx
thx
Guys I remind you all once again, this thread is for general questions that do not fit anywhere else.
Game specific questions belong in those forums.
I appreciate your understanding in this matter.
You mean like Populous? I'd love to see a good modern god game. Which leads to my P'dox question:
Does Paradox have any plans to release the Europa engine as completely open source? That is, not just licensed to some fans?
Clausewitz engine games cover a wide period of history and a great many mechanics - warfare, colonisation, diplomacy etc.
Watching the news as the Libyan civil war pushes on, I can't help but feel that kind of asymmetric conflict would be an interesting setting for a Clausewitz game. The best of Hearts of Iron 3's combat mixed with a Rome/CK2/Sengoku level of leader detail. Is this something that Paradox would consider?

That was an old announcement that should not have been reused. Nothing more to announce right now, other than you get bonus points for reading carefully and being interested. 
It was a snafu on our part. Project Silverado is not being announced for many months, nor is it a MMORTS.
/s
Project silverado? You guys should do an AAr on how you name your new projects, that would be interesting.
Oh dear, now it's not enough for us to keep up with all the signed titles, we have to keep track of their code names too. No wonder I'm turning grey!
. Next year is going to kick major ***
1. How come you guys are so great?
2. What was the inspiration for the original Europa Universalis?

It was/is a board game, designed by Philippe Thibault, now of AGEOD (Paradox France): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_Universalis_(board_game)

Sorry if this has been asked before. But will there ever be a merger of Europa Universalis and Hearts of Iron? (Is it even possible?)
By that I mean that the game starts in the 1300's, and goes on to lets say the year 2000.
I can imagine it would be a GIGANTIC game, and campaigns taking maybe months to complete. It would be totally awesome!
That said, I do not in any way mind buying two seperate games

Most likely not. Politics, warfare, the very concept of nations, etc. all change far too much over such a long span for a single game to cover it in any sort of detail.
I have a couple of questions once again:
1. Is there any major holes in the timeline from Roman times to WWII that hasn't been covered by Paradox game(s)? I'm quite impressed about the cover so far and I thought about making AAR or something where I'd play trough 2000 years of Paradox Games but I'd just want to know if there is some bigger jumps from era to another.
2. Does any Paradox game have support for Linux or are the games Windows & MAC only?
This isn't much of a question but I noticed that devs are using American and British english randomly in the games, took a long time to find out what was causing the error in my Rome mod because even if all other neighbor modifiers are written in american english for example 'any_neighbor_country', the one I used was neighbor = x, which doesn't exist as it's 'Neighbour = x'

Will there be a "Salem" type game based on either the Rome era or based on other EU eras? A Sengoku "Salem"? etc...
Also EU: Rome ends at the date when historically Octavian was granted the title of Augustus and became the first emperor. So it leaves away the imperial Roman era and the start and spread of Christianity. About one thousand year jump from Rome to CK. After CK though everything's covered until the end of WW2 (not counting the few years between EU3 and Vicky1/2 start dates).
