I heard there was going to be a multiplayer game livestreamed soon...

[DrZoidberg]

I heard from Arumba's youtube channel that there was going to be a multiplayer game livestreamed soon...
When is it central european time and where can I watch it?
Just so I don't miss it.

As far as I know, nothing is confirmed apart from the following:

- A bunch of youtubers is meeting with the devs for a multiplayer game in London
- Said youtubers have received access to HOI4 alpha a few days ago, which should make them more or less effective in the multiplayer game

We don't know whether it will be streamed (probably not) or how big of an embargo there will be.
I suspect there will be no gameplay videos but only "impression videos".

I think Victor Cortez is correct, but if it is ready enough to play with Youtube opinion makers why not show us forum opinion makers some of the video of game play? I know we as individuals don't have as big an impact, but as a group we do have an impact. So I fully understand why we don't all get access to the game for a test. I think many of us would watch a twitch video of the play with the understanding that things will change & the game is not fully done (I have seen that currently all event images are a para drop, so they have not yet made the event images for the game).

It's still not in beta? Is it even going to get release within 2015?

Would be nice to watch this, but there is an embargo so I doubt there will be a live stream.

I think there would have been a big announcement here, if they were planning to livestream it.

Also the live stream producer/host has left Paradox.

Things are heating up over on twitter, Finland having a civil war, France and Germany signing a non-aggression pact, Nationalist China joining the Axis, Turkey fabricating claims on Greece, and Italy on Yugoslavia.

Bad news:

No stream of this event. Look for articles/videos/screenshots sometime next week.

We will have to wait until next week.

It seems like a really big waste if they aren't making a live stream or at least a gameplay video to release later out of this

I mean the whole point of getting youtubers would be that people enjoy watching them play games, whats the point of having them if your not gonna let us watch them play your game

They also need to bring back streaming in general, I know they lost the old guy who ran them but that was a while back surely they could have found someone new by now, and I feel its kind of a waste having no video content put out, Common Sense is being released next week and we have literally seen no gameplay footage of it and I assume we will be lucky if we even get a release day stream

This. I understand they want to find the right person as it's a very important role, but we have had no streaming in a while now.

They don't seem to be hiring anyone to do the streaming, no jobs listed on their site mention it.

If you look longer down on his twitter homepage theres a picture of Britain with new icons!

looking through quill's tweets

"Apparently China joined the axis. That's more than a little concerning"

oh i'm really liking this.

The war has started.

AFAIK, answer to both your question is "No".

While new release date wasnt announced, based on what we know Q4 would be earliest possibility of release and PI doesnt like releasing games in Q4.

India & Australia (Allies) defending French Vietnam from China (Axis).

So wish we could watch this.
