Can't describe it in english...Jinnai said:
...buy it, it's cheap now, I think
see some screenshots
Yep, it is.Jinnai said:sweet!
Look for it, and play it. You will know then what I want with cultures and religion
PS: The planet is full 3D, and 'zoomable' to a city range. The capitol can be moved (if you want) I did it as Russia to St.Petersburg, and recreated Monarchy.
yay! for pie-charts.
booo! for sending colonists and missionaires.
sending single "individuals" IMO was one of the most stupid things in eu2.
i spend a considerable ammount of money for a chance of conversion, and have no influence until its finished or aborted by an enemy...
its an all or nothing thingy.
conversion and colonization should be a steady process.
depending on my sliders and the money i pump into conversions, the pie charts turn to my favour...
I love vicky, but also boo! for pops.
they stink of useless micro.

I don't like the idea of modelling ethnic groups and religions to double decimal points for every province. It encourages dismal stat-incrementing gameplay. "Woo-hoo, my province is now 59.29% Iberian!"

I dont understand why this should be a bad thing.
If you care about it, it gives you a feel of success if you manage another 5%,
if you dotn care about it %values wont influence your playing at all...
Personally, I'd like to see missionaries kept, but handled differently. Instead of the current huge payment up front, followed by a long wait for success, I'd prefer to have to allocate $ to support them, in a manner similar to military maintenance or tech investment. That is, it would be a continual drain on your budget, with a continual effect. If you pay too little, it would have little effect, even less, it might disappear. There would still usually be a start up cost, & you might be able to commit for, say, 20 years, after which you expect it to be self-supporting.
This would also allow events, which would create missions, sometimes asking for set-up costs, sometimes only support.
But the bottom line is that I'd like to see missions as more continuous than currently. And yes, this would involve %'s.

So you wouldn't mind if it was 0-100%, not 0.00%-100.00%?
I wonder how much success a player is going to feel when they 'manage another 5%' hundreds of times in a single game...

no 0% to 100% would be ok for me, i didnt undertsand that you ment the "after comma" numbers only. (did you?)
of course such a moment of joy would only be a small one.
it would more be a ongoing process, where wevery now and then you look for it and are satisfied(or not) with the development.
Many good ideas here!
Pie-charts would be nice as has already been pointed out. One for culture and one for religion for every populated province would be nice. I did not like that provinces abruptly changed culture/religion in EU2 (an all or nothing approach).
Hmm, perhaps the Shinto-religion should be directly tied to culture (japanese)...

Here is a thread with some simular culture ideas that some of you posted: Nationlism thread
I really like how Victoria has all the cultures in it, but I really would've loved if their was more social effects off having these different cultures in the same country.

IMO, every province should have a 'Major' culture and a 'Minor' culture, with differences in severity relating to events, revolt risk, etc...and perhaps a major and minor religion as well to simulate province with more than one religion.
If a province is truly monocultural than the Major and Minor cultures are the same.
This would allow the to show the history of the Jews, poland, the Pale of Settlement, etc, who presently do not exist at all in the world of EU2.
By massacring the population and losing tax value and stability, the ruler can change Major to Minor, or vice versa, or completely eliminate a Minor culture or religion after great cost and time and pop loss.
There should be many more religions available, and it should really be 'religion and philosophy':
They should include the religions already in EU2 +
Humanism (i.e. the french republic, america)
Confucianism should be Confucian, Taoist, and Tradtional Beliefs
Buddhism divided into thervada and mahayana. Japan should be Majority Confucian with minority Mahayana in each province except Hokkaido, which is Minority Pagan.
Judaism.
Certain religions should be naturally antagonistic to each other,
i.e. Hindu vs Muslim, Catholic vs Jew, Orthodox vs Muslim, Protestant vs Catholic.
Anyway those are my ideas.

Ahhh... Superpower 2 lol. Many a night/morning I would be falling asleep at the keyboard trying to invade the US with a Cuban-North Korean coalition.
yes, and also if most of foreign nations people are converted, a possibility for the nation to change national religion
