Hearts of Iron Roleplay Multiplayer Community

[Magnus Imperator Rex]

You should have each player roleplay 1 nation.


And you don't even have to buy a game to role play, you can sit on team speak and say 'Yes Mr. President and thank you Minister Diago'. 'Just do improv, no game needed. '
But to each their own, Like op said its more about playing dress up then a game. As far as games with historical war start dates you can prosecute the war in anyway, its just to have balanced teams in a real game. Anyone can be Germany and kill the denmark player, as not all nations are =.
Anyway no point duscussing game balance in a thread about improv acting. To each their own.

A game like this with allot of people controlling one nation will not be going long, it doesn't work well in HOI3 and it wont work well in this.
'Have fun though Reichsmarschallllllllllllllll :/' Leermeister yells into his phone box.

'Sorry your names not that important to me Diago, I do not need to worry about spelling it. Just pointing out it would make more sense to roleplay as leaders of 1 nation instead of having 3 people run each nation here in reality. If your going to have fuhrer bunkers and Oberkommandos why not just play a historical game with teams, you can still act.'

Leermeister Types into his keyboard while drinking a soda

You can also role play and use time in-between matches to do the same with your allies, Italy and Germany for example. Should be no more then 2 to a major nation--- 2 fronts, game will not be that complex for 2 or more people to manage 1 nation. And it is unrealistic to think that you will be able to keep a game together with so many people, and half the players have little to do in a single country.

People will quit and leave the game. It is hard enough keeping 5 or 6 people around especially in Sunday only games, Let alone a game where most people have little to manage every session.

Just saying being 'ReichMinister do nothing' every sunday for 5 hours does not sound that appealing to allot of people.

Much better to be Hitler and Mussolini in your RP or Churchill and Roosevelt

Still going to bet you dollars to doughnuts this wont get passed 1 session. Also I'm going to bet if a single player played 1 nation, it would stomp on some of these 'schizophrenic' countries with multiple personalities. That being said sign me up for Furher of Germany, i will accept nothing less.

Well if Fuhrer is taken then i wont play then.
The bet still stands; Dollars to doughnuts.

Germany is always our friends
i am sure it is the Yanks

Those Goddamm Yankies! I'm sure!
And we need to rescue Canada! With force! @ErichVManstein

 

[Magnus Imperator Rex]

Canada will ally the U.S.

...

...otherwise...

we might insist.

 

[Leermeister]

Dude, why are you here? It's really none of your concern if this fails or not. So, just leave if this is all you have to say in this thread.

'Sorry kind sir, It is just a fact you do not need 3 or more people to a country to roleplay in this game. It would be much more fun to Roleplay in a game with some of the points that were outlined earlier. Are you honestly going to have a minister position who stares at the production screen or diplomacy screen for 3-5 hours and expect to maintain this group for long? I think the self proclaimed roleplay community should take some constructive criticism on how it sets up a game if it wants to have a game last more then 2 hours with the same people. Limit 2 people to one country and it may work, but don't require at least 3 people to a country '



Leermeister calmly sips on his coffee shaking his head as he thinks of a USA with 5 players

funny thing is your making a fantasy game that wont work out for a game that is not out and half of you wont even show up for the next session when you realize old Leermeister was right.
Just remember OP I outlined the problems that you will soon see when you put your 5 man to a country game into practice. If this were HOI3 you are literally telling a few players to stare at a production slider for 5 hours a session.

hmmmm RP community does not take suggestions very well , those games always last...lol

Just assume none here have ever played HOI

 

[Magnus Imperator Rex]

you gotta start somewhere though right?

 

[DiegoVaz]

Magnus leave him alone
i think he's some paranoid kinda dude
just don't respond

 

[Leermeister]

You should start by playing an HOI in MP they have made 3 so far. I doubt many in this thread have to come up with such unbending fantasy rules that quite frankly will ensure that a game will not last. You all could go do this in HOI3 at this very moment to see how it works out with 3-5 to a nation. Oh right you don't own another HOI.

I agree on most points. Its correct it will be a miracle if this even survives untill the game is released. If it does its a miracle if everyone joins/show up. And its going to be grueling to get to '40 or whenever the US gets into the war if we are 5 people.
Though i actually wouldnt mind watching others play the game, talking to them while only concentrating on the research and production screens. Thats the most interesting part of the game for me and heck why would it be worse to talk to people while playing a game than just watching a youtube lets play?
2 People can work, i have done that myself in a japan game. 3 might work if theres enough action going on/if theres stuff to debate/the game is new. 4-5 im a bit skeptical about.

But this thread is fun, games and atleast for me a bit reviving in a forum that suffers a bit from the fact that theres not much interesting to talk about that hasnt been shown or debated 5-10 times already.

Yeah RP can be fun, but it would be more realistic to say 2 man to a country maybe 1 person for political and for economic control and 1 for military just an idea. Germany and Italy then have four people to talk and rp on team speak throw in 1 or 2 in romania you still have all this RP fun. just a more sustainable game as well. Also should not be a rule more then 1 are needed for a nation IMHO.

Anyway if some other RP people made a sane game that listened to others ideas it could be fun.

 

[achmed242242]

I dont know about you guys, but I have over 400 hours in hoi3, the only reason I dont have more is because i play other paradox games, and other games as well.

 

[achmed242242]

Also, Japan only has three people, and honestly I think that is the perfect number, as we have expressed to Takeo in that we really don't want anyone else in our country.

 

[MarcoRossolini]

WHO DISAGREED WITH THE POST ?

Our good comrade Richard Sorge has things in hand, not to worry...

Also, China, I think we need to have a little talk about "priorities" and the role of comrade Mao in your army, I'm sure we could make it worth your while...

 

[Y4NNICK64]

we will wage war on two oceans, on four continents, and we shall never waver. Our entire Fleet to Japan, our entire Army to Germany. Our entire Air Force to USSR, and no one will step in our way!



edit: this thread reminds me of this:

You don't shall have many allies on that way

 

[Y4NNICK64]

Those Goddamm Yankies! I'm sure!
And we need to rescue Canada! With force! @ErichVManstein[/QUOTE Canada is mine and its gone stay that way
