Request For Info On One Thing?

[unmerged(26876)]

This is a request for information from Paradox on anything.

We know the Hard Working HoI2 Betas cannot violate their NDAs but information has been a bit scarce of late.

Have a look at the FAQ. From the 27th of July the only confirmed info we have is:
1) there´ll be no time machines in hoi2.
2) There are specific HQ divisions.
Provinces have pictures for terrain, but some urban provinces all support unique pictures.
3) Nope not in [Monaco], neither is Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino and the Vatican. Voila.
4) Ok, Faeroer are not in the game... neither are the Channel islands. There you go.
5)

Now, I DONT WAN'T JOHAN TO ANSWER QUESTIONS!
You keep working Johan! Your time is too important!

What I propose is this:
Do you have a Junior Beta who could write up info on one new section of the game? (How it has changed? Why it's better? How it works?)
Maybe - HQ units?
Transport units?
The new tech tree?
Anything at all?

Then have it 'censored' by Paradox and post it here?
It would give us something to discuss
(In one thread they are discussing the use of the RETURN key for post readability!!! )
I would even forgo a screenshot for something solid (but that is just me :wacko: )

Maybe you could even post a draft section of the HoI2 Manual for us to read and tear to shreads??

Add your post if you like this idea!

I find this idea wonderful.

 

[Maximilian I]

I like this idea...

(especially the junior beta part )

 

[unmerged(29126)]

Signed ... since the the Betas are ...well... beta-testing things have gotten a bit quiet here ...

 

[herm]

Yes, I would like that too.

Especially that part about a part of the manual...

Don't you look at me! NO.

You nailed it on the head... Back to testing before a Beta_Master spots me...

 

[javiermcabo]

Great idea!

But maybe they don't want us to drive them crazy saying "that's not ok", "this should be like that"...

nice idea - besides the screenshots there aren't really much informations available !

btw. I would really like to see the units attachment list and how attachments will be handled in HOI2 ?

from the screenshots att. seems to be a seperate unit that can also be deattached... - ...but who knows ?

...and how many att. will be allowed per division ?!


...and some infos about the new combat engine would also be welcome

*** putting on nerdy robot voice ***
Need Input
(that phrases it rather nicely, I would think)

Anyway, tomorrow's screen-shot friday (TGISF)

and yes, some info on how things actually work and not just look would be spiffy

I'm quite new on the forum, so I want to check that I understood you well.

Every friday - new screen shot? Or..?

 

[javiermcabo]

every friday, new screenshot AND a couple of explanations about the game are our requests

Thnx

Thnx!

I'm quite sure that PE should make a game of "Game Developers' Incuisition" or "Modern Techniques of Psychological Torture and Addiction to Software Warfare". They're really good at it. I've seen so many desperate posts, it looks like people finished playing with HoI.

Not me! :rofl: !

If you ask me the currently released screenshots are sweet. Only problem is that there are only 9 of them to date.

I say the following with all honesty

I DONT CARE IF I SEE THE SAME DAMN IN GAME SCREEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN AS LONG AS ITS AT LEAST SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT EVERY TIME.

Sorry about that but quantity in this case is (to me) (and at this stage) is preferable to quality.

I agree.

Great idea!

Especially since us betas do that already.

I agree.

I don't ... but that's because I don't understand ...
could someone explain Zen's statement to me ?

especially the "quantity is better than quantity" bit

No, but seriously, whatcha mean by "slightly different" ?
