No EU needs some kind of Pops which I presume means EU4. Vicky2 would be much, much better.
Don't hold your breath waiting for pops in any future Paradox game including Vicky2 (or whatever they call their next 19th century game). Some percentage system is much more likely.
It think EU3 still has a bit of time left in it. A expansion or two more would be good and would increase revenue for Paradox.
Before working on EU4, I'd want them to make new versions of Vic and CK. Upgrade them to the new engine and improve them where they can.
Another major thing I'd like is another expansion for EU:R that adds more depth and replayability to it. They tried to make it friendly to new members of the Grand Strategy genre, but ended up makign a game that isn't as enjoyable for the current members of the community.
Either way. I'm a big fan of Paradox and will buy whatever they decide to release.
It will be very good, if Paradox team do next EU III or EU IV.
But what about Victoria II and next(second) pack for EU: Rome?

The more EU3 the better! There are a few areas that haven't been expanded on since the original, like the diplomatic options.
I just hope that whatever gets done, it wont ¶§$£¿‼ the modding community.

No thanks
I think the energy would be better spent on an Ancient Mesopotamia game, say from 3100 bce to the fall of Babylon in 539 bce.
Another possibility is Greek City states from 1226 bce to battle of Chaeronia in 338 bce.

Yes, I would like an expansion. In addition to whatever new features Paradox thinks of, I'd really like a focus on the non-European nations. I want to be able to play China, or an Indian minor, or a native American tribe, and have as rich of an experience as playing a Euro nation.
Paradox should make a War of the Roses game - it's probably something they'd excel at.
Yes, please.
I'd primarily like a ton of new trigger and condition types to play with, a vastly relaxed set of limits in respect to map modding (30,000 provinces? If you have the RAM, why not!) as well as better logging and easier debugging of problems related to both.
Some sort of random revolter generation (so a revolter from, say, Mogadishu could spontanously form a Mogadishan Kingdom without it having to be created by a modder in advance) and the possibility of internal politics, including granting partial autonomies to self-defined parts of the nation as well as colonies (multiple per nation; like, having my Mexican colony be one special administrative unit and my Indian colony another and my Californian one yet another ...) would be neat as well.

I think, fixing bugs and some work with AI is better. And yes, remove the Kama Lake from the map, please. This lake does not exist.

Not so sure about that. While I would love to see a War of the Roses game that situation is way too political for a Paradox game. If there is any weakness in Paradox games it is the diplomacy. Far too many subtle decisions/deals/etc. IRL diplomacy to deal with in what is basically a war game.
Having said that, if Paradox does ever do a War of the Roses game I would be at the front of the line to purchase it.
It must have been voiced before, but I'd love a character system like CK or Rome. Lots more options for intrigue.
And more to do in peacetime, either through economics, population management, religion, or a combination thereof. Warefare in EU3 doesn't really engage me, I like to tweak a country to get it's max potential in peacetime.
Edit: Oh, and methods by which you can knock countries BACKWARDS in tech-levels and advancement. If I want to raid a country for generations, burn all their books, tear down their buildings, and destroy their history leaving them savages, I want an option to do it. Or have it done to me if I screw up.

I had a thought about this and other similar scenarios the other day, even before Johan made this post. The problem is, I don't know if Paradox could or would want to take the time to do it.
My idea was to have several mini-game scenario like things. I think HoI II had something like it, haven't played that in awhile but I believe they had something like this for the Battle of the Bulge and a few other things? Though they just used a limited version of the regular map, iirc.
What I think would be nice is if they had a more highly detailed map and series of events for these little scenarios. War of the Roses, for instance, would just be England, and I suppose maybe a little of Northern France and the rest of Britain. Perhaps a more detailed version of all the provinces with more added and such.
Also there would be scenario specific decisions and events and such.
Just my rough thoughts on something that would be fun. *shrug*
I voted no - I'd prefer to see either a new IP or a revisiting of older ones (Vicky 2 preferentially, or maybe CK).
Those would be quickstarts... I doubt it'll trouble Pdox to add a couple of quickstarts... Not to mention modders.
I'd be much more interested in added provinces, gameplay, stability... etc.
Cheers,
Nick
I voted no. I want Victoria 2 damnit .
... not really , but I do want Vic 2.

The game feels mostly complete, but improvements in the combat system would be welcome.
Armies that could be customized would be nice, being able to select:
1) Tactics.
2) Weapons.
3) Uniforms.
4) Training levels.
5) Recruitment base.

POPs aren't really appropriate for EU. Having lots of separate population units helps to simulate the increasingly complex politics and economics in the 19th century, but I think they're much less important before the rise of mass politics and capitalism.
