I know this isn't strictly a teaser, but xmas is almost upon us, so I figured a present of some shiny "fietsen" were in order for Bratyn :3 http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuteZbBXQAIniy3.jpg
This thread was added on January 02, 2019, with posts from podcat_paradox.
@A_Spec I figured you'd like it ;)
I was super excited to hear that @HOI_Game was nominated for the Steam awards under Best Alternate History: https://steamcommunity.com/games/593110/announcements/detail/2796070940830340422 So I asked some of our UK devs for the most outrageous alt-history pic to celebrate this... (there are a lot of emotions in their corner right now) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuxO24UWkAIrj6e.jpg
the yearly Christmas dev diary comes around where I finally get to unleash my art skillz. Embrace your new wallapaper (or not) and read about some stats from the year! https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/hoi4-dev-diary-merry-christmas.1140097/ http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuyFLinW4AAYWiV.jpg
@KaanBabaBurda It hasnt changed that much since pdxcon when I showed it off. I plan to do an update on that after MTG. That way we can see how it changes :) Turkey is at the top of non-majors atm though!
@Dnote_Z5 @ShamsJorjani @omfgblondie dunno, just skip ahead to DS9 imo. best trek!
@Dnote_Z5 @ShamsJorjani @omfgblondie heresy!

Things one of the new guys found out today at paradox. "Going for fancy pasta" is highly ironic and dates back 10 years ago when there was a huge difference between two lunch restaurants nearby :D its funny what seems to stick in PDS culture

@Gamer_1745 @HOI_Game wow thats brilliant :D
Hearts of Iron IV: In real life https://youtu.be/Wkh8I4FofAU via @YouTube This is brilliant!
@My_Devil_Is_He I really need to get in on that over christmas!
so while we wait for 2019 to roll on, what would you guys want to see for @HOI_Game in the new year?
@bai81387 @HOI_Game i actually think we already have the option of flooding conscripts. If you go mass assault you can spam underequipped divisions fairly well as long as you are ok with burning manpower
@jkchart @AnthonyMagkno @HOI_Game yea, its sort of what it was designed to be, but i feel with how much hoi4 has grown since release its pretty limiting now
@JoakimVestin_ @HOI_Game we actually used to have this before release, but it looked too messy and ended up cluttering things up. perhaps it could be a separate mapmode now tho when we are adding the possibility of more
@dthomas931 @HOI_Game i thought the plan even early on was to continue the fight from canada
@officalkimjongo @HOI_Game i think there is already a mod for that :D
@TheAtlanticMan @HOI_Game If you have Waking the Tiger you actually have a minimap you can flip out on the bottom right
Tomorrow we start off @HOI_Game dev diaries again after Christmas break! http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DwZkW_UXQAA61N6.jpg
@SaschaTee @PdxInteractive @HOI_Game blood for the blood god, tanks for the tank-throne
@sunnyleung4 @SaschaTee @PdxInteractive @HOI_Game a lot of paradoxians are actually. We got a gamingtable at the office :D I am primarily a Thousand Sons player though #magnusdidnothingwrong
@sunnyleung4 @SaschaTee @PdxInteractive @HOI_Game my designer is a space wolf tho... its pretty disturbing :S @YaBoy_Bobby_Pds
@RobZacny solitaire games are quite cool actually. I looked at a couple of naval warfare ones during last summer as research :) Fleet Commander Nimitz had some cool mechanics and ”ai”
@Mathijs_Delft @HOI_Game I always post them before going home ;) so soon
Tuesday teaser time! Tomorrows diary is going to be about tech changes across the trees. Here are some guns :) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dw9-4WzX4AEbHRe.jpg
we have speeded up research for everyone to compensate for all the new tech :) https://twitter.com/Pixel_husky_/status/1085244427671687173
@herrmansen ahead of time is costlier
@BjorkWasBanned @The_GamingRhino http://pbs.twimg.com/tweet_video_thumb/Dw-72OsX0AQAjq2.jpg
@IVM_Firefly its not that big a difference but some day maybe. i kinda miss it in mp
Tuesday again, so before ppl start asking for the teaser.... In tomorrows diary we are going to show off Man the Guns models, art and music ;) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dxh3h5yW0AAA3Pz.jpg
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/hoi4-dev-diary-art-and-music.1147722/ Boats & Music and other cool stuff in todays diary! http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dxmpz7yW0AUsfl-.jpg
@haave yes :)
@SirMattSelby not impossible. I think more music for HOI would be great
RT @JonShaferDesign: After 7 years and a lot of hard work At the Gates is now available! It's a tough game, but great for serious strategy…
@dorpdork thanks!
Tuesday teaser! People seemed to like the submarine dev diary AAR format, so tomorrow we are gonna have a USA vs Japan AAR from Japans perspective. Gabriel wont be skimping on the super heavy battleships :) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DyF6hQJWwAA_aTE.jpg
its also a good opportunity to show off some UI changes we have done from previous diaries
RT @HOI_Game: Archangel has been engaged in naval warfare playing a game against Niall. This week he will share his tale to give you a feel…
@Pdx_Da9L @spot_mod checking code both ANTI_AIR_PLANE_DAMAGE_FACTOR and ANTI_AIR_PLANE_DAMAGE_CHANCE are used in the strat bombing part of AA. not the part where CAS fight divisions. dunno if that was somethign we fixed at some point and it was broken in some way in 1.5?
@RobZacny stop it you are making me want to rewatch it and its over a 100 episodes!
Tomorrow's diary is gonna show off some of the new achivements coming with MTG. Can you guess this one? http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DypKKHdX4AAQvRV.jpg
@AAliments For features that should have been in the base game, I am totally with you. This is why all $$$ for MTG funds a time machine so now that we have made those features we can go back in time and add them. Probably leading to these tweets disappearing in a huff of time paradox...

@ISPuuuv Good thing all old swedish buildings have bomb shelters (russian scare yo), so if this happens we can game in safety :)
@AsaTJ To be fair tho, UK can get lots of USA oil, so you are gonna need a lot of african communist subs too to pull off your plan (or use the ai scenario stuff to flip USA commie too)
We have shown most stuff now so no teaser today, but tomorrow we are going to do another AAR/play report focusing on the custom AI scenario feature we are adding as part of gameplay settings. We covered this a bit early on, but didnt really show examples etc. Its pretty cool! https://twitter.com/Aer0matt/status/1095365823533932545
@EysN5Bg3PWh3QB0 the game uses multiple cores. start it with the command line -threads=1 if you want to feel what it would be like otherwise
@gugahgcs not sure there is room. i could talk about it with the patch log a bit perhaps? but then its kinda listed anyway
Dunno, but here it is! https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/hoi4-dev-diary-ai-plans.1151821/ https://twitter.com/zach_haigh/status/1095774007612194816
I'll just leave this gem here :) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DzXNpMWXQAIx88I.jpg
we tried it once at the same time as a russian LAN and it worked out badly. Some say there should have been more employeed helping out, and some say a guy called Moltke bungled it up. It could probably work if we do some smaller LANs first and do the russian one later ;) https://twitter.com/lukeplunkett/status/1097605456892112896
@Alfray_Stryke @E_Universalis yea would be fun. We got customngameplay rules now too so its easier
@gugahgcs happy someone got my overly complex response joke ;)
No teaser today. Tomorrow we are doing a huge recap diary covering all of the expansion
its gonna have some stuff thats changed and things we forgot to mention also
This diary I am writing feels more like wrestling an oiled up bear. Its gonna be huge but our forum software sure was not built for this magniture of posting :S
@rob_4556 ugh, I forgot to write about that one ;D a lot of small stuff like that isnt gonna fit into the diary ;D
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/hoi4-dev-diary-man-the-guns-mega-recap.1154415/ Here we go. MASSIVE RECAP diary is live. I probably only forgot like 50% of stuff *phew* http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dz2f7yjWwAY-sHX.jpg
@gugahgcs they are about the size of tigers (although listing all the new nations kinda pads them in an unfair way ;))
@gugahgcs we'll show them next wednesday, they still need some proofreading and cleaning up. Its a big job to go from like 6000+ lines of "whatever I was thinking that day" to 400-500 lines of something remotely readable for @AsaTJ to write jokes around ;P
To be fair I handed you like 40 pages and went "sorry I didnt have time to photoshop in sexy JoJo reference pics on the expansion breakdown you will have to imagine it" (actual conversation) https://twitter.com/ceeebie/status/1098229598700126208

@ceeebie i am still in de-Niall about all this
Just did an IAMA together with several people from the team here https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/at6kne/we_are_paradox_development_studio_creators_of_the/ Was a lot of fun and many good questions!
@feedbackgaming @HOI_Game @Pdx_Da9L made a ticket for the invasion order hotkey the other day actually, so its at least in the pipe (although I think we ended up deciding it didnt need one if you could multi click several destinations instead now that we no longer limit to one invasion per start port)
@A_Spec is this 1996 again?
@Tigerpreserve yes
@feedbackgaming @HOI_Game Weather mapmode is kinda cool. but not super useful. I got it in the backlog though so might see the light one of these days
@feedbackgaming @HOI_Game maybe the penalties are not worth stopping over? altho mud is pretty nasty. I am not sure. I feel mud is pretty visible on the regular map, but maybe for most people its not hmm
@Jetiiluigi i dont think so, all the logic handling that is fairly tied to naval stuff

Hi guys, the dev diary is running a little late today so it will probably get posted after the stream thats starting in 10 minutes. It will include the WIP patchlog we got so far as well as some telemetry goodies on what people are playing :)

@DalenDirk @Indyclone77 @HOI_Game HOI4 is basically designed to teach you by beating you. It works because its a shorter game than some of our other ones. So you get futher and further and realize what you need to improve
just got my copy of @UbootBoardGame kickstarter. looking forward to some more physical sub warfare too :) http://pbs.twimg.com/media/D1E7zvAWwAAUvFK.jpg

@omfgblondie ooh nostalgic!
@producerjohan @Sandwichbull @HOI_Game @gameimperator @StellarisGame my main issue with it was that it was always lowest prio (unless you were small enough to benefit from tech stealing) because officer ratio and research was such must haves. It did add some interesting levers to control south america stuff
@producerjohan @Sandwichbull @HOI_Game @gameimperator @StellarisGame and commandos had some fun stuff with buildup of uprisings and supply hits even if it was too nasty vs the AI
@Benjamin_Magnus @producerjohan @Sandwichbull @HOI_Game @gameimperator @StellarisGame haha yea i remember getting carrier tech as the swiss :S
@Aer0matt no we are on diary hiatus atm until we begin talk about 1.7

@FlyingHedgeh0g @HOI_Game today :)
@esserpnegual I seriously doubt the performance argument. the impace of a non playing observer is small. Spying tho... thats a more real concern. Maybe we could have restrictions so you would need to approve being observed?

@DagBoee @HOI_Game Good question (although I will argue about the MP focus!). Will make sure to include some discussion about it. I obviously arent going to talk too much about the future tomorrow though! At least not in detail

@Blofeld2k I absolutely agree, which is why all the money we make on this will go into our time machine project where we go back in time and add all the content we have made for the original release 3 years ago. Due to the way time travel works you wont even notice it happened!
@clockwork353 you can always pick the 3d art you want in the division designer even if it isnt the majority type. I do that to keep apart my different divisions between say more defensive and offensive

@Riekopo2 that was actually something we toyed with early on in development when plans were a lot more complex creatures. It didnt quite fit into the flow of the ones we got now but I agree it would be cool to have the option of doing it
@BurdenOfCommand Its got the same restrictions as a player pretty much. There are a few places where it gets better knowledge (it can check enemy org and such on divisions which imo is fair as a player would remember roughly based on past combats).
@BurdenOfCommand AI logic is built around fuzzy data "whats the worst and the best possible" and depending on what its trying to do it will balance its choice between those
@BurdenOfCommand There are also fun places where we intentionally make the AI misread numbers for historic reasons. Our AI is not dumb enough to declare war on USA while war is going on in china, so we give it a massively inflatable ego.
@BurdenOfCommand Some nations are also set to be extra set in their ways when it comes to evaluating aggressiveness from other nations. Like America
@BurdenOfCommand @EzraSidran I had not, that looks very interesting. We have various encirclement detection logic and such, but atm the more advanced is mostly defensive
@BurdenOfCommand We do in areas, but its mostly when things switch quickly on a top strategic level. Since units are usually on fronts and the AI has a rough idea on the total army strength of an opponent (through decryption) it usually doesnt cause too many issues on a front.
@BurdenOfCommand For invasions its a different matter. its a problem we are working on constantly because of the added complexity of the big delay before they can be enacted, more limited knowledge about enemy defenses and the guesstimate on "how fast will my supply run out"
@BurdenOfCommand We have had several diaries on AI over the years and they are always fun to write. I suspect we will do one for the current expansion we are working on also :)
@BurdenOfCommand @TimeGhostTV haha yea. With fully rational AIs tho Germany would just be stopped after the anchluss as other nations see their military buildup :) I try to approach this stuff from a rational angle and then put rules or specific AI behaviour on top (Japan for example hates to ask for help)
@dmoregard @A_Spec streaming games like Google Stadia would also be a logical way around it
@spot_mod Unfortunatly not. We tested makign it moddable a long time ago I think and ran into stability issues. Might be worth looking at at some point tho, as I do get this request often from modders and from MP groups (altho its usually about slowing down 1 and 2)
I spoke too soon. Tried it out and I think I got it working :) https://twitter.com/spot_mod/status/1175533209955815424
@SESSpackman @spot_mod not sure I agree on that one. but I would like speed 2 to be a bit faster I think. This way it can be modded to your preference :)
@Zervel The fact that peoples kneejerk reactions seem to be assuming the worst and basically attack creative people online is why I dont enjoy twitter much anymore :(
@Zervel Kojima also deserves a lot of cred for being one of the few people making unique stuff in the AAA industry. Does that mean its quirky as hell? Sure, but I'd rather have a unique vision that does something different than trying to please everyone and worry about culture clashes
@Indyclone77 @Zervel signed up for Sooty posts!
@spot_mod assuming the change doesnt explode in testing it should be in 1.8 :)

@MikeyG54896440 @unityofcommand its a different kind of game. It focuses more on local tactical and strategic gameplay than HOI4’s focus on long term strategy. If you never tried hex based combat games or like those I would give it a try

@Benjamin_Magnus @SirVogelius bananas are an accepted measure of size reference!
Was checking sales numbers for HOI4 and recently 2 people, for the first time bought a copy in Antarctica. Hoping you two penguin researchers are having a great MP game!
@gianarasps1 @HOI_Game you can form them in any nation (although it does cost a fair amount of industry so if you do it as a small nation you wont be build a lot of other stuff). There can only be one spy master per faction though, and you'll want to grab that if you plan to go all out on espionage.
@TheWesterFront @Leo75601058 If I remember correctly by default I think it goes to whichever one is the player.
@AshleySeemsNice Awesome! Do you play with the antarctica mod, and do you play MP vs the other antarctica buyer? :D https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1725465968
@ShamsJorjani if you were wondering 1917 was great :)

@terrywelty @Pdx_Da9L During the stream, so probably around the 10 CET mark which is in the middle. But time can vary a bit depending on how stuff goes.
@UnmutualSix @Pdx_Da9L make sure to update and verify the dlc and you can play on the plane :) Nothing beats Carlism like Carlism at 30k ft (assuming its a flight, other it might be best to pick the Anarchist path)
