it's like watching a war conducted between envelopes. for practicality I can see why people like them, but just the aesthetics of them...yuck.

we dont need another thread but for what its worth, i never enjoyed the models. HOI3 had counters and sprites. HOI4 does not have the option to remove models. i dont exactly care about what you think of counters, its not a dilemma for you, if you like the models. you not liking counters does not solve the problem for people who are upset with the exclusion
your comment would be useless on its own, but as its own thread its just... especially silly.

sorry I don't get turned on by envelope combat. but like you said, not my problem cause Paradox is trying to attract a more general group of gamers, and in this day and day, people don't like watching envelopes shift back and forth. i'm sure they can be modded it if you missed them so much.

Great an other thread about this topic.
Well done, in this one the two sides will surely come to a conclusion about this arguement ...

Because giants that stomp on cities is much better aesthetic-wise
Hint: it's not about aesthetics but immersion. Some people are perfectly fine with Civ-like models on the map but others want the look of a military map and on-map giants ruin that, and there was no controversy as it's totally up to the player to choose which one to use in previous games.

I've come to a conclusion. It's a good one. It's been a while since I've added a new person to my ignore list so time to dust it off. I'm sure you'll enjoy the prestige of being part of such an exalted group! So all that remains to be said is thank you for your successful application and goodbye.

Just stop to spread out your opinion, we just don't care.

To quantify the number of fruitcakes given about this, one would need to calculate the net profit that amounted for Germany from Operation Barbarossa.
Conveys the most information in the least amount of time. This is a game of Grand Strategy after all.

They should fight it out. Nothing better to settle an academic argument than bare knuckles.
PDX could host a big twitch event where people from both sides in model/counter costumes just bash at each other.
Last man standing gets his will.
Would be an interesting fight. I imagine there is a bunch of men between 30-50 years on one side (pro counter) and a bunch of young men 15-30 on the pro-model side.

Given that Germany was in a much better state economically than the rest of Europe 30 years after the war, I'd say it's quite a number of fruitcakes ;-)

@Lifthrasil, I'm 15, and I still think counters are better than sprites..... Here's to hoping someone can mod the 3d models to giant counters

nobody cares how old you are on a forum for discussing HOI4. i'm a fetus and I like 3d models.
also great job OP, we really needed another bloody counters thread.

Works out perfect for everyone then.
You have another option, and the rest of us can use them.
Thread can be closed.

@GeneralPetrov , lifthrasil directly referenced age in the post I was replying to, all I wanted to do was debunk the myth that only oldies (no offence meant) like NATO symbols and counters. Impressed as I am by the masculinity you've shown shouting at a child on the internet, I'm afraid maybe reading posts in context might be a better solution next time
