A second forum account? Certainly not me...
So who's Gaptain Cars then??? (plot thickens)
(there's no such guy, don't search, resume making of EU4;-p)
Can I ask Paradox whether it would be better for the games/development to set up a kind of teams for brainstorming/discussing the intended development? Obviously it would be up to Paradox to follow some proposals/ideas expressed in the forum.
Sometimes I feel that some decisions are made without considering some important aspects. This is because, I guess, lack of time for the analysis or lack of resources committed. In fact in case some solutions are not "the best" when this is disclosed to the community it's too late for the developers to make a change.

why aren't there a High Score or Hall of Fame list? I'd quite like to be able to show off my scores when a game ends - or compare my games' scores! I do really really really miss this!
So question is, why? and if it's something you can and want to implement, when?

There was an achievement system in EU3 that gave you scores and you could compared them with others on the Paradox Connect server. Sadly it was very problematic and more trouble than it was worth, and it will be canned in the 5.2 patch.
Basically the answer to your question is that setting up such a system would be a distraction from the writing, polishing and publishing good games.
On almost every project we do we have a group of "alphas" to help us out with things like research, and they usually also come with a lot of opinion and ideas, so we're already doing this. Plus some of us spend (way too much) time on the forum reading what forumites want/don't want etc. But we can't develop games "by committee" and the community is rarely (or never) in agreement on how they want things anyway.
What are you the devs expecting from the next Hearts Of Iron 3 Expansion release "Their Finest Hour"
I expect people to like it and feel it improves on the game. Not sure what you are after with this question besides that obvious answer?
Large piles of money so we can finally build the Paradox Apocalypse Bunker Complex we've been planning for years under the Himalayas!
Maybe he means in terms of sales...
I have a question. Do staff have any say in what project they work on?

Yes, assuming projects start around the same time. People jumping ship to other projects halfway doesn't really work well. We try to put people on the projects they prefer most.
As far as I can see podcat took care of significant and very successful HOI3 patching/changes and now it seems is going to deliver a very good HOI3 expansion.
If podcat is a cat, is Johan a lion? If so, what is Fredrik? And what's the rest of you lot?
You really shouldn't put it there, too much seismic activity over there. Put it in our trusty Scandinavian mountain range and you'll be safe for millions of years, and the commute will be a lot shorter!
