With August two weeks away, considering that the devs lead with focus trees. I was wondering what focus tree that devs will show off, or tease on Aug. 5. I feel like Italy is going to be shown off. So what do you guys think?

Don't really care which focus tree they show. I just want to know, broadly, what kind of gameplay improvements we can expect in the next expansion. I really hope there is a focus on improving land warfare.

Wait, how do you know there'll be a dev diary on aug 5?

I don't. However, considering that the Paradox Mid-summer break ends in August. August 5 would be the first date for a HOI4 dev dairy.

They haven't even properly announced the expansion yet. That will happen before the diaries start.

However, they have announced 1.10 "Collie" and 1.11 "Barbarossa" and that DD for "Collie" will begin in August.

Well, considering it's now August 5, and no dev diary was published today, I would say that the people in this thread were right about no dev diary until late August.

What we know is following:

The Devs work on Patch 1.10 "Collie" and Patch 1.11 "Barbarossa" paralley. How many % works on Barbarossa we don´t know. Maybe one of the Devs will show. But 1.10 "Collie" will come first, what the Patchnumber says already.

If I read the first DD´s correctly the Devs announced there that the Codnames of the Patches stand for an Operation the Axis, Comintern or Allies did. And if I read the last DD correctly, the Devs sayd about something about the 2 upcomming Patches.

So if the announcement of the Codenames are correctly, Patch 1.10 "Collie" will be the Pacific-Part with not yet fully done jap. Colonys and Oversee-Islands, which was an Operation in the Pacific against Japanise Oversee-Islands. The other Reason why this will be done first is that there are not done Allied-Colonys too [British-Malaya, France-Indochina, Nederlands-Malaya or so] and the Airforce-Part (Priority) will be refited first as well as the last big Points of the Navy-Part.

The Codename of Patch 1.11 "Barbarossa" ilustrate themself. That means Europe (Italy, Poland, UdSSR, Bulgaria, Slowakia and such). There will be done the Army-Part, Supply, Industry etc. which is a much harder nugget then the Airforce or the Navy.

So if all goes well I think we will get Patch 1.10 "Collie" with a small DLC at Years-End or the first 3 Month in the next Year and a bigger Patch with an big DLC at the End of 2021.

Aye, some more insight on the bugfixing process would be nice. It's probably an inescapable problem on a game this big that there are a lot of bugs people have been wanting to see fixed and feel frustrated by, but just a little more insight into them being in the process of getting fixed could really ameliorate it.
