#FinishPortugal

[Darksworthyone]

Please Please for the love of god release a free update that adds at least general portraits and unique infantry models for Portugal.


PS: Please dont do us dirty and make us pay for it.

Why should that be free? Country content is one of the big draws of paid content for this game. The free patches already add some pretty beefy new features. We're getting a whole new resistance system for nothing alongside bug fixes and AI improvements.

Your demand is unreasonable. It's unreasonable to demand anything more than bug fixes and performance tweaks with free patches, but Paradox is already delivering more than that(albeit not as many bug fixes as many people would like).

Because they are making use pay full price for an unfinished product, they had a whole year to work on art for TWO countrys

Portugal's already getting more content and focus than I would have EVER thought it'd get in a HoI paid expansion. More unique art would have been nice, but I personally don't see the absence of it affecting my enjoyment of the game in any way.

 

[Mr_Dimento]

I wish I made people pay full price for major content for my games I make...

 

[redcoat22]

Sadly it didn’t look like there was any unique 2d art for Portugal other than the leader.

Having just watched yesterday's stream, it occurred to me that the OP may not have a great grasp of English and that what they are actually saying is that more portraits and 2D art should be included as part of the paid DLC. In the stream, Portugal has no portraits for generals and has the blank 2D sprites for planes, and presumably, for tanks as well. As far as we know there are no new sprites for them either.

It is indeed disappointing if we actually aren't getting any of that stuff as part of the paid content in the DLC, but from a gameplay perspective Portugal's content is looking pretty darn solid, so there's that.

I don't care if I get them with a Patch or Paid DLC.

I want:

- Portuguese Generals
- Portuguese inf 3D Sprite
- Spanish 2 Armored Car 3D sprites
- at least one more Spanish tank Sprite
- Spanish IGC Sadurni carrier 3D sprite

I would gladly pay 5 bucks for that.

I was under the impression that once a nation got a focus tree it got some of these things. I really hope it’s in the works. If they have time to make achievement art and focus icons it seems a little 2d art shouldn’t be a huge deal

Well it takes like 2-4 h to make portraits they said, if I remember correctly, there should be source material so I hope, at least 1 FM 3 generals.

Don't think Portugal had any tanks, trucks or planes of their own so an infantry dude and a cavalry dude shouldn't be too hard to make either

 

[Secret Master]

Are you telling me that the art would really tie the game together for you, Lebowski?

I base my decision for heavy, light or medium tanks on the question which has cooler sprites. After axis armor pack, I started building spaa, arty and at tanks just to be able to put the Sprite in it.

Haha same here, I now use a lot of new vehicles because of the sprites.

 

[Vic3RebelUprising]

I can't believe they are not making the art for Spain.

Spain will get infantry sprites and one tank and a rec plane sprite.

 

[General Von Trapp]

As it's getting it's its own focus tree, someone will mod some sprites in I'm sure. The general portraits are a problem though because for consistency, they can only be made by Paradox.

 

[Iskulya]

As far as modding goes, Portugal has had sprites for ages now. McNaughton's Minor Immersion sprites have had it covered for about a year now I think.

Although it'll be disappointing if there is no official sprite, at least we'll be covered there.

Hmmm...but there is always the "Fairy Godmother(father) Effect".

Even though a nation (in this case, Portugal) did not have tanks, trucks, or planes of their own in real life, Paradox designers wave their magic wands and gift a newly born nation such as Portugal with tanks, trucks, or planes of their own. We'll see. They've done it before.

If such endowments (ahistorical tanks, trucks, planes, etc) help with $ales, I understand completely.

We've come a long ways from, "unit sprites are the worst thing to happen to hoi, and having them in hoi4 will ruin the game forever" to get all the way to, "not having unit sprites is a national disgrace and pdxdevs should be ashamed of themselves".
