Hearts of Iron IV - Development Diary 59 - D-Day

You mean the game that you dangled in front of the community and yanked away like a cats toy for years?

The game that I'm sure could have been released Friday but for a really stupid and cheesy marketing ploy you're releasing on Monday?

That game?

 

[gman551]

It almost seems like you enjoy making all these people wait podcat. You couldn't show just a smidgen of kindness and release it on Friday so that people could enjoy it on the weekend?

Actually I think he does enjoy it. Making people wait on him with bated breath.

Well at least they won't be getting a lot of sleep. Before or immediately after the launch. Which will naturally be at like 3pm CET.

It's happening!

Guys I need money, Stellaris ate all of mine.

I pre-ordered the Field Marshall Edition; does anyone know where one would get their forum icons?

I didn't know how to get it either. What I did was, I disconnected my Steam linked to my profile and connected back and now I have my icons.

Wow, that worked for me, too; thank you for the tip. Let's hope game launch day fares better than forum icon day, lol.

Damn, we have a holiday on release day here in Sweden but it releases after I would already be home if it wasn't a holiday. Plus my internet is bad and no preload

 

[Smitzer]

[DieselAlpaca]

OK chaps, after hoi1, 2 and 3 ready to go and experiment a brand new game
Good luck with the launch Paradox team. cheers

Victoria III confirmed. sorry

 

[Pdubya]

A long time coming, but I think the delay was the right decision. Particularly with a game whose last couple versions have been kinda meh. For all their innovation HOI 2 and 3 were not keeping up with the rest of Paradox's line.
Glad to see you guys accomplished what you set out to do with version 4. Tweaks and regular free and paid DLC should round out HOI4 nicely. Anticipation is high podcat, congrats to the whole team!

i am both elated that it is 1am (UTC 10+) of the D-Day landings and terrified because my uni finals are this week T_T. I cannot binge game because of my finals and I am deeply sadden by this.

 

[ploddi]

Amazing stuff!

 

[Verfuhren]

Can we have it now if we rebel and present an ultimatum...Something down the line of "Release now or else"
