Well...I quite like the map as it is in the screenshot: uncluttered (mostly) and that slightly dated feel. Utilitarian, perhaps? But please, don't spend unnecessary resources on making the map pretty, or having gratuitous animation: it's the gameplay that we're all after.

Hmm. A more realistic looking map would've been nice, but it does look very... WW2-like; dark, depressing and industrial. The areas also looks a tad big from what I expected, but they know what they're doing.
Well, don't get me wrong, a map is one of the least of my concerns. I am more concerned with gameplay, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't appreciate a better looking map also.
And I am quite glad that HOI will be having the best feature of all: No PTI! Yay!

They are here to make sure that anyone who see them shots are not going to reveal any info to a third party..

I noticed that the Tommies had reached Erfurt and Hanover in April 1944 in the first shot. But by the second it was August 1945 and they had lost the two provinces to Germany. bad news . . .

Here
"Each country will have a government with a head of state, a head of government, and eight ministers/staff chiefs. Each of the latter group will include historical persons like Ribbentrop, Molotov, and Roosevelt. These ministers each have a distinct personality, which gives various benefits or penalties to their field of work. They also have various skill and loyalty levels. The research work being done here is staggering, as we are implementing everything from the Foreign Minister of Belgium (Paul-Henri Spaak) to the Brazilian Minister of Justice (Alexandre Marcondes Filho). "
OK I am officially impressed now.

Pologies,
thought i had stumbled on a pot of gold and i didn't see
another screenshots thread on the first page. Guess i'll have
to visit the forums more often.

I would also give anything to know what military historian is working on the research for the game, as Johan said. Over 700 technologies! WOW!!! Is there nothing Paradox cannot do?
So they let that cat out of the bag.
Awesome. And just maybe it's more impressive than it sounds.

I like the map and sprites - reminds me of posters etc. of that period.
The map is just as I hoped it would be, but I do hope there is an alternative unit graphics scheme. I think simple symbols would fit the map better than the 3D-miniatures. Then again, I suppose the unit graphics will be easy to modify.
That little world map is very informative as well. Take a look at the Pacific Ocean. Looks like lot of the little islands are going to be in the game.

Wow, the Germans are taking a beating arent' they? August 1942 and the Russians and Americans are already pressing on Berlin....
Lets just say my expectations are high. But this particular detail exceeds them. Now if only I can keep Morgenthau from leaking to the Russkies . . .Originally posted by Georg I.
