Crusader Kings III Available Now!
The realm rejoices as Paradox Interactive announces the launch of Crusader Kings III, the latest entry in the publisher’s grand strategy role-playing game franchise. Advisors may now jockey for positions of influence and adversaries should save their schemes for another day, because on this day Crusader Kings III can be purchased on Steam, the Paradox Store, and other major online retailers.
This thread is more than 5 months old.
It is very likely that it does not need any further discussion and thus bumping it serves no purpose. If you feel it is necessary to make a new reply, you can still do so though.
It is about making the game easier to understand for beginners too. We old fans can't stay too conservative, adapt or die.
I completely disagree, it is a nice feature especially for new players. Anyway, why not have a classic control setting and a new setting, pleasing both old fans and making it more accesible to newer players.
I am a veteran but I do love using WASD though xD
It's basically having the option to put your cursor on the edge of your screen and the map then scrolls to the edge your mouse is pointed.
Edge scrolling is the behavior of panning the camera around the map when the mouse cursor is close to the edge of the game window. If disabled, the camera will no longer pan when the cursor hits or is close to the edge. Some players wish to disable edge scrolling when playing in windowed mode or when using multiple monitors, as they often tend to move the mouse cursor outside the game window yet do not want the camera to pan when doing so.
That's a great idea! Make a Game Rule so us Old Farts can use our precious W like we're used to without shafting the newbies...
I've playing CK2 since release, and every now and then I find myself trying to scroll the map using WASD. It's intuitive, I guess. Using the direction arrows is impractical and uncomfortable, since they're to the other side of the keyboard from the left hand.

Using a Game Rule for a UI setting? That's a bit silly.
Being able to switch keybinds would be a lovely solution, but may not have been planned for when developing CK3. I can live with that decision, so long as some keys exist that let us switch mapmodes. Please don't tell me this useful CK2 feature got axed in favor of WASD movement!
Looking at Ireland on the screenshot I count 12 counties with perhaps 1 or 2 obscured by the tutorial window. Is province count also still under development. I'd be a bit disappointed if CK3 starts with the province density CK2 had at launch. I've gotten used to 19-county Ireland, I don't wanna go back to 13.
Is hot reloading something we'll be able to do once the game is launched? Would make creating mods a hell of a lot easier to test
Oh having the ability to toggle between is obviously the best option all around. But having ONLY WASD is just awful.
I don't use the arrow keys, I use the only quantifiably objectively superior method: Middle Mouse Click and Drag.
I agree, I wonder if because the barony will be placed on the map the county density will get down. I'd like ck3 to have the same county density than in ck2. It will fell like a drawback if not.
Beside that, all this is very positive and look well polished.
Im worried about whole map. CK3 adverises it has 4 times bigger map and territorialy it might be, but actually it has less conquerable provinces what mean less action and less playability.
I think conquerable provinces should be doubled up not decreased. Visible Baronys dont compensate it if they can not be seperated from countys and conquered seperatly.
STOP! COOKIE TIME
