Hello Paradox, Welcome Back !

Sorry to tell you that but i think you are really wrong about the reflection.

Players don't play new content
Because it's doesn't change the way to play
Why ?
Because The Focus Effect is very too light.
C'mon 70 days for 1 military factory ??? really ??? how fun is that ???

(Solution)
Be creative, Add interaction and STOP with the traditional Focus effect (like 1 focus = 1 military factory!!!!!for godsake!!!!! i build them!!!! i dont need 70 days a focus to get one!!!!)
Add Deals, Exchange, Interaction, creat Things who matters (cause the player want to matters!!!!)
Players want to play a country who impact the game. That's a fair feeling. (that's why people choice germany 40% a time in you'r data)
TFV content is a nice things but the focus tree doesn't impact the game that much.

When you are Australia, people doesn't care if you go fascist or communist, you are too far, too weak to matters.
The perfect exemple of the very boring things in focus tree is for example, 1 focus for 2 dockyard. C'mon... So boring 70 days to get that, how do you want us to have fun with this ? how can i get a country who matters with that !

What's would be VERY good for small country is to get highly interaction with neighboor or major, for example, boosting production rate for a major, in exchange of something, or i don't know, having a boost in construction speed, if we do allegance to the reich. Interaction. Exchange. Mutual Deal. That what we want !

I invite you to read focus tree of the Millenium Dawn Mod, and mainly the Generic Focus Tree wich isn't boring to play at all. Because focus choice, matters, and effect are real.


Paradox Rocks, we trust you!!!

It's just that the formatting illustrates perfectly why less sometimes really is more. There are already many really strong national focuses, and with TfV they added many ways for allied minors to shape the country in a certain way. Don't neglect a focus that adds some factories. Everyone is in dire need for factories in the early game, and minor nations will crave factories for the entire game. The generic focus tree is already so strong that some people would like to have it toned down a bit.

It baffles me that people always claim that they somehow represent the entire playerbase with comments like these.

You have your opinion, and I respect your opinion, but you cannot claim that the "players" or "community" want this.

That said I enjoyed TfV and I'm excited for what's coming with the next expansion. And as already stated by Paradox in the last DD they will focus on linking actions of minor nations to major nations more, so I don't really understand what the issue is.

The issue that people see is that they somehow expect when the devs say "we're working on it", that means it will instantly happen. When it doesn't, they come here to complain that "the devs are not listening to us" and proceed to repeat their demands for the fifteenth time despite the devs already having answered to the last three times they asked for something.

As Paradox said, Players arent playing the new content. And the reason i gave, is real. Play more Multiplayer, Talk with people. Once again today, i added someone playing HOI4 and he was agree with me. One more, since TFV launch.

The issue that people see is that they somehow expect when the devs say "we're working on it", that means it will instantly happen. When it doesn't, they come here to complain that "the devs are not listening to us" and proceed to repeat their demands for the fifteenth time despite the devs already having answered to the last three times they asked for something.

If you read me correctly, i don't ask paradox anythings, i just advice them to be more creative in the focus tree.

You both look like you are listenning/reading only yourself. Big Ego.

Here you go with putting yourself as the sole representative of the community again. "The players this the players that" just isn't right. Unless you can bring proof that the new content isn't being played by the majority of players like you claim, the players aren't anything as I personally enjoyed TfV and know a lot of people who also have.

Also nice try undermining my arguement with a personal attack by claiming ego, but that's not going to work while you claim speak for the majority without any proof.

How about you check your attitude chap.

Your experiences and opinions and not the only valid one out there.

Insulting people who say you don't speak for them or who disagree with you are not doing yourself any favours for getting anyone to listen to your position or point of view.

Try talking to people like adults rather than you immediate reply to the first reposes in this thread being an attack on the character of the person disagreeing with you.

After all pretty sure paradox will have all the metrics you present and more, as they are not limited to only your experiences.

Playing as a small country can be very boring. But you also can't get these unearned freebies.


The whole scoring system (end game chart) needs a revision. It implies that the best score is simply the most massively developed nation in all categories. It doesn't reflect anything meaningful. Some of them are downright silly like number of fleets. I can just break up a fleet and have more fleets lol.

Tbh TS is right in some point. At the moment game has too small amount of events and choices for player. And those events which we have now has just one button like "ok" without any effect. As i think PDS add like x5 more amount of events and give player any choices for some of those events. For some countrys you can just make building's chain and press x5 speed right to year 1939 or even more, because there will be no any interesting events.

*sigh* Read the rules again. Impugning people's intelligence and trollish behavior will get threads locked, sometimes temporarily and sometimes longer.
