to Paradox programmers: stop doing stupid games! stop killing good concept games (hoi1,hoi2) Stop sacrifice good concept for game engine /better graphics , poor gameplay , stop be ignorant. You have all the work of thousands of players , with good intention who has posted lots of good ideas on this forum, who has correct/notify you all the buys from hoi2 ex:province names. They give you a lot of new ideas and a lot of new concepts, but you just don't wanna listen !

You will all be very disapointed about the new Hoi3

Someone told that """" "For me HOI2 is dead. I doubt I will ever be going back to it after playing HOI3 :/ """""" ---well mate i dont agree with you.


Every good player who wants a good game and a good gameplay game , not just "GRAPHICS" and lame gameplay, will still play hoi2 and later will try hoi3. why ? simple because it's better in concepts, in game PLAY


I have play hoi3 several days , trying to test it, to convince me i like it,to convince my self its a good one, but i didn't succed.

I've notice some very disapointing aspects of the game.
I run the game in 1280x1024 resolution, the game runs smooth.

1. The zooming poor engine: to see a division/corp of tanks or infantry you have to zoom it close. If you zoom it closely its useless. If you max zoom it the game will reveal you only the NATO spreads looking divs/corps. The game will not let you to choose between the NATO spreads or the infantry / tanks graphic (as we get used to it in hoi2 )
This is totaly crap. this was my first big disapointing. I DON'T WANNA PLAY a strategic game only in NATO SPREADS signs, i want to see my new upgrade it tiger-tanks corp represented by a german tiger-tank not by some silly NATO sign corp or division NATO SIGN.


2. I've look on the map ----- it's totaly unfinished / bugged. We have played hoi2 because we , players "repaired" all the problems with terrain, provinces, acces links, acces rules. WELL GUESS WHAT? We return from where we started and it's worse

AFRICA you can acces all the provinces, i mean ALL, from any point. Everyone knows in the province EL ALAMEIN you cannot FLANK THAT PROVINCE ! Every hoi2 player knows how the map look at KASSERINE ! it was a damn pass , a mountain region , hardly accesible .NOw is no more !
At El alamein you have to ram the enemy with your troops .....and that was the Battle it self, a trench warfare.

well no more . In hoi3, you can avoid El alamein and go straight to CAIRO or any point from AFRICA (and i bet same situation is on east europe) all the surounding provinces has acces and all are linked. I didn't belive my eyes it has no acces denied, no broke links between them. Come one Paradox , you are offending the inteligence of your customers / buyers/ players !


3. Stalingrad is not in his place anymore ( the most important south city/province has change his historical position)


4. Name of many provinces are realy realy realllllllyyyyyyyy CRAP. are messed up ( ex: in romania you have hungarian names of provinces, wich was corrected in hoi2)

what is so great big deal PARADOX, programers of hoi3 , you cannot acces the HOI2 map and see the final DataBase of the provinces from each country?

OR you even cannot google it?!?! to have a fair Data-Base with correct names of all provinces of europe !? well , at least europe and america? ! i dont know what is the name of provinces from Tibet for ex ,or Mongolia, etc, but let the historical ones alive ! Stop building games only for stupid people, not here, not with us , not with hoi2 concepts ! Stop offend our inteligence guys .


5.NAVAL BATTLES : display of Naval units ------ At a resolution of 1280x1024 ( i say it's a fair/common resolution ) my naval units are realy f####g huge !

Its like a big enorm ship fighting against other giant ship. It's realy a massacre for my eyes. I cannot watch it, whats the point for big /giant graphics for the units ?! whats the purpose ?! OK ....i zoom out and ? the result is the transformation of the naval unit into NATO SIGN. Great deal, realy. Instead of make a good enginge to see the big picture of important naval battles, you do it only with nato signs.


You will never never learn, and i tell you paradox something, i've played a lot of strategy games, i mean a lot, and let me tell you that lots of succes games , had become some stupid products for stupid people. You know why ?
Because the lack of importance for GAMEPLAY , sacrifing the GAMEPLAY for the GRAPHICS crap engine , WE DONT WANT GRAphics , we want GAMEPLAY and average GRAPHICS

some examples of failure

Civilization 1- concept was great , every person can tell you that .....but they want graphics and the civ 2,3,4 was a failure ----about the big /giant graphics for units -----well that is just stupid . Civ 4 try to resurect but fail again because of better graphics-ugly one , but shitty concepts.


Panzer general 1 - great concept , great game ! PG 2 was ok, but PG3 did something like you did --- they come with a "better engine" and guess what happend .....it wasn't good for strategy/tactical game , it was all 3D for ignorant stupid people, and the game has failed, was a big failure. And now , we , veterans of PG style gaming saw how this concept was killed - no one has ever produce a better PG1 gameplay




Gameplay means a great game feeling , great concepts , simulating the reality, great multiplayer scenarios, new concepts for multiplayer
The great glory of hoi2 and long life was because of multiplayer games. Do not forget that !

So who wants to play hoi3 , if is only for stupid people ? only for ignorant people who doesn't give a sh$t on history , on geography, on nothing, they are only stupid/ignorant graphics consumers

Hoi3 has a good map concept - new one . Yes , but NATO signs cancel that, naval giant units cancel that.

Hoi3 has only a good engine map , what else ? what else in front of hoi2 !?

PS: players has great ideas , better than any guy from PARADOX, but they do realy prohibit us. If Paradox will make a contest of concept/ new ideas , players will surly win ! Dont forget Paradox, we , players are the key for your future , not your 3D new GRAPHICS who will ruin you .

please comment.....
