Two player Nation

[Leoap]

During and interview with a Dev i heard that two player where playing soviet union.... one looking after the military and one after the industrial/production
Sorry but I didn't' understand if they where playing at the time...
Actually i Think it would be amazing to have this opportunity....
Even better in Multi player , it would be fun to split a nation with various assignments
Example one player having Airforce, one navy and one Army.... with one major player being the head of state....

Maybe this would create a bit of confusion in the interface?

I'd love to play this way. Would also be interesting if you could split it with an AI player. Would make for some very interesting challenges

 

[Leoap]

Yes exactly..... and this would help immensely during magnet of big nations
Even if i think the best use wicked be Multy....
BTW will multi be like EU4 style ?

Have ten players controlling Germany at once, obliterate anything that stands in your way.

Think this was an option in HoI3 aswell...

Just imagine the possibilities of this happening.

One person in control of a single theater, Africa, Europe et al

And one person in control of the home front doling out the supplies to each theater based on the information they have collected.

USA 2 player - Pacific theater, European theater

Japan 2 player - China & India, South Pacific & Islands

Soviet 2 player - North & West (Karelia/Leningrad/Moscow/Belarus, South & East (Ukraine/Crimea/Caucasus/Far East)

Germany 2 player - North & West (France/Norway/Baltics/Leningrad-Moscow), South & East (Africa/Balkans/Ukraine/Moscow-Stalingrad)

It would make for a good rp even more so if you could have more than two players playing one country. So you cuold for example with Germany have couple of generals leadng the different fronts in the war and one player as head of state handling production,diplomacy,tech and providing troops for commanders if they need some. That way you wouldn´t have so clear priorities unlike when you play alone and tend to usually concentrate only on one main front at a time.

 

[Leoap]

This possibility of multi player would open a lot all the gameplay
Actually at one point if for example you are Germany and you conquer all Europe you "really" need an extra player to manage everything

Example during WWW the Reich deadbeat realize that he was losing Suez because he had so much to do

And actually i think it would be really fun to play with a friend a nation

In Hoi3 me and a few of my buddies would usually have 3 of us playing as the UK (leader, army/air, and Navy), and somebody else as Australia and another as Canada, Commonwealth. It was fun to be all the commonwealth guys. We would try to beat a player Germany/Italy with usually a house rule of no US or SU player, AI only.

It's a great feature, and I'd love to see some YouTube Let's Plays of HOI4 players doing this. For example splitting the German army into Army Groups North, Centre, and South.

We have been able to do this since HOI3
You can have 2 players play the same country, and split things as you'd like.
and you can also "split it with the AI" by automating what you dont want to mess with

I've played HOI3 with two on a the country. Are HOI3 and HOI4 limited to two per country?
