Loading EUII games in Vic - is it true?

from panvision.no - norwegian distr.

Finn fram savegamet fra Europa Universalis II, og gjør deg klar til fortsettelsen – for her er Victoria og 1800-tallets kriger og teknologiske fremskritt!

"Find the savegame from EUII, and get ready to continue...."

So - is it really true? Can I load my EUII game in Victoria?

Its definately wrong, I'm a closed Victoria beta tester so I know. I find it highly doubtful that a viable converter will be even practical since Victoria has ethnic percentages instead of one ethnic group per province as in EU2 among other reasons.. Someone should contact Panvision and let them know they are mistating the game's features, it sounds like in this case they are confusing Victoria with Crusader Kings.

As far as I known, you can't load an EUII savegame in Victoria. I think I read it somewhere, maybe the FAQs, but don't remember.

That would be nice, but I don't think I will be implemented. But maybe it's a surprise from paradox

This has been asked several times and the answer has always been no.

Yes I know, that's the reason I just couldn't believe it.

I'm sending a mail to Panvision Norway telling them about the mistake.

Aaargh, false expectations.....

a pity i really wanted this feature i was building up a bunch of savegames i was going to continue

 

[Tunch Khan]

I'll pay an extra $40 for that single feature. Shouldn't be that hard.

All,

This is definitely covered by the NDA.

I wouldn't jump to any conclusions either way until you get an official word from Paradox.

Are you sure about that? I thought it had already been stated by Johan or Patric that there would not be a converter in one of the earlier discussions on this subject....

They have mixed up Vicky with CK...

for startes , this wont be able to be done from all things said so far, you must be mistaking it for people saying they wish the game started in 1820 so this could be possible, but it is clearly not since the game starts in 1835.

dont know why they would try to hide something that could raise sales so it would probly be publicly stated by now if it was possible

I'm still waiting for an announcement about a 800-1948 super game.

Kris,

A lot of features thought to be in don't make it into the final realese... On the other hand, a lot of features thought to be out or delayed to a patch get implemented.

So, as another beta chimed in at the beginning, I just advised to await word from a Paradox guy...

And there it is.

I am with you bro

 

[Archaalen]

How would they make such a thing even workable? They'd have to switch from CK rules to EU2 rules to Victoria rules, maybe even to HOI rules (the Victoria stuff could probaly just be modded) all in one game. It'd be impractical, unless they've come up with a system that works across all of them, as they (fairly successfully) did with civ3

I'd say you'll probably be waiting a while for that one....

Civilization Universalis?

An 800-1948 game would be unbelievably awesome.

800-1000 : conquer the world
1001-1948 : stare at your screen and crush rebellions
