What happend to the Rivers????

[unmerged(17352)]

Just having a look at the screen shots for HOI II and noticed that there are no rivers... For me these have always been a key strategic and tactical element of the combat! Does anyone know why they are being removed and it they are being replaced by other factors?

As Steel mentioned in the screenshots thread....

This has been brought up a few hundred times, yes There will of course be rivers in the game.

Sorry I had a scan of some of the other threads and didn't see it mentioned.

...think what we have seen so far is just the graphic from HOI1 v1.06 - even without rivers but what do you need more for beta testing ?

...I'm more or less sure that there will be a completely new graphic (with rivers) - but paradox just kept it in the box so far...

The Chinese ministry of Culture banned the representation of rivers. A vigorous offense against the Chinese sovergreinity it was...


As for more the whole sotry, see this link: "CNN exclusive: "Nay" comments the Chinese minister of culture on rivers being allowed in WWII games."

Rivers were deemed too wet for the game as they might damage customers' CPUs and result in too many lawsuits. Similarly all environmental conditions that could cause corrosion or short-circuits have been removed. Nukes/bullets/bombs/etc (anything which can be lethal) are strictly verboten...




Edit: of course I hope you realise that I might just be pulling your leg...

I dont see any "rivers" from the window of my office.

I've seen clearly manipulated pictures in books that depicts these so-called "rivers", but they won't fool someone as clever as me.

There are no proofs that "rivers" exist in the world.

"Rivers" goes into the same category as "Round Earth", and "You dont fall off the end of the earth when you sail west across the atlantic".


You see, thats a clever question, but there are turtles ALL the way down.

I thought your office didn't have any windows at all (other than Win2k, but that doesn't count)...

Well I got my answer, we seem to be switching to Disc World :wacko:

That prompts another question: Will Death be a unit or a possible upgrade on nukes...

Having surrounded myself with provinces full of AA, Land Forts, Coastal Forts and Garrisoned by Armoured and Mechanised Units a voice said:

WOULD YOU MIND HOLDING THIS NUKE FOR ME?

Oh no...

OH YES!

 

[Quivis]
