What will the next DD be about?

[LoLLarN]

I just read through the last DD and usually in the end we are told what the next DD will be about, so if the DD's are not done, then what will I be fancying reading on Friday?

I am deeply sorry if it has been said somewhere to why I could not manage to find it or that I simply ain't good at searching things up myself. Anyhow I will be thankful for any answers about it.

Things I don't care about:
• Radio
• Weather
• Partisans

Things we need dev diaries for:
• AI
• Pacific Theater
• Nuclear Weapons
• Inheriting materiel, blueprints, and soldiers from occupied countries

Please fix @podcat

 

[Denkt]

The DD is also about occupation, not only about the bad side effects of it.

Nuclear Weapons

How often will these things matter, the game is most likely over at that point.

• Radio
• Weather
• Partisans

While these have always some impact on the game.

I'd say that Nuclear Bombs surely play a large role in the game, and the race to the ultimate weapon will be an important (and fun) part of gameplay.

I'm not saying that weather, partisans, and the radio are useless. I'm just saying that @podcat could be doing dev diaries on far more interesting things that the community wants to know about.

We are rather starved for information about all 4 of those things, in case you haven't noticed...

Speak only for yourself.
I personally really want to hear about partisans.

Speak for yourself! I want to hear of partisan movements. I've never played HoI before and I keep hearing the resistance system of HoI 3 isn't that good, so I'm really eager to hear if they have some cool new beans to spill.

Okay, I can see when I've got the unpopular opinion. I'll edit my original post

In hoi3 partisans are vital. More than techs, maybe. Some partisans will make Germany move troops from the front and they lose the war. Because of partisans.

Another point. If you land USA, as Japan for example. They will run out of manpower in 1943. Then they will only do partisans. 500 IC in partisans. The hell man. Partisans are very important.

As important as the pacific theater, or the strength of the AI?

The only diary I cared about is the one where they rectified and change the oil system to something realistic. Which should arrive between 2 weeks to never

More seriously, I think the one i'm more interested in is the one about ai

Colnies outside of colonial areas (plus islands) will be handled by entirly diffrent mechanics. With an emphasise of protectorates and tradeposts.

@Mannstien is clearly onto something here;

Consider Parmesan;

"The nutritional benefits of Parmesan are such that it should rightly be regarded as a 'super-food'. Cheese contains all the goodness of milk but in a concentrated form - 16 litres of milk are required for every kilo of Parmesan. A look at the table opposite will give some idea of its relative merits:

One of the factors that make Parmesan so 'super' is the ease with which the human digestive system can assimilate all this goodness. Due to its long ageing, much of the protein in Parmesan has been broken down into peptones, peptides and free amino acids, in effect the protein has been 'pre-digested'; the protein is readily available and as such it puts very little strain on the metabolism.

Tired soldiers have little energy left to drive their metabolism - therefore supplying them with parmesan cheese will increase odds of victory.
Be warned = Parmesan will certainly be included in the combat rations of my military forces.....

 

[Cpack]

But Parmesans only appear in northern Italy......

Looking forward to the DD. Btw. I played lots of HOI3 games and I nor the AI never used nukes in my games. As said before, the game was allready decided before nukes could take a role.

AHHH, I should have bloody known there was something the Italians needed to have taken out of their focus tree!!!!!! At least let us export this wonderful resource to our enemies

You barbarians have no clue about Parmesan cheese.
