EU5 made a very bold choice in bringing back the start date to 1337, considering that EU4 really hit it's stride in the 1500s and most players wouldn't play more than 150 years. This could be fine if the extra 100 years is filled with interesting content to keep the player engaged, but unfortunately this has not panned out. You'll find that the late medieval period has little going on, and worst of all the addition of hourly ticks in a 500 year game makes this boring period feel excruciating because of how much those extra ticks pad the game time. In the time that the average EU4 player would finish a campaign you will still be in the first 100 years of the game in the late medieval times. I was playing on fast speeds and after over 20 hours of playtime I was still in the Age of Renaissance.In the age of discovery your options open up with better technology to allow you to do more. However if you've been playing the game remotely competently then the game is pretty much over because the AI cannot properly oppose you. The AI has no direction in terms of expansion with the removal of mission trees and the whole situation system does little to shake things up because they don't work properly or the AI doesn't know how to use them.The game promises a lot of content but when you look closer at it you realize how shallow it is. Thousands of events it claims, but it's all just different versions of "-10 noble happiness, -7 stab, +30 gold, etc" You'll find that you're doing the same thing as most nations, and the concept of doing the same thing over again playing through 20+ hours of nothing just to have no competition when the game starts opening up is not appealing at all.I played Austria for 20 hours and was unable to even deck a war because casus bellis are limited early on. 20 hours of just constructing buildings hoping something would change. I've had more fun watching grass grow.
>>725073273>Playing as Ottomans>Conquering around Anatolia a bit>Black Death hits>Lose 1/5 of my country and it's going to take generations to recover manpowerWhat were they thinking?
>>725073273Wait for 50 DLCs it'll be good then
Oh, I thought you were gonna say because 1337 is the website everyone will be downloading the game for free from.Also, why do I hear in every single review "It's really good now, but I can't wait for--" I wish everyone wasn't so easily influenced into becoming retarded. Why is releasing an unfished game expected? Even if it weas finished why should I expect it to be updated. How about you just make a game and that's it. I don't care if it's Paradox or current year, doesn't change reality, stop making games live service projects. "If you buy this game you're buying into a at least 6 year project" ACTUAL WORDS from a review I saw. Mental illness.
Just wait goy
>>725073273oh really because I thought that choice was uber leet
>>725073684This game was the ORIGINAL live service product, because they keep coming up with new ideas after it comes out. The game as it is has a lot, they just add more later
>>725073745>DLC announced at releaseThe absolute fucking state of this industry
>>725073791How about they don't add more, they release a game, then a few years later they release a sequel. How about that? That way you actually have a GAME. I guess that's the problem. I know this is the "Live Service" board, but I prefer computer games. Where you make a game and then people play it. Instead of "let's make 70 versions of the same game and keep changing things and then make it an utter mess that cannot be a single thing or ever preserved."But I know you're already been taken in. Already fooled. It's already too late. People are already too stupid. Mmmm yesss expansions, updates consant updates mmmm, unfinished games mmm, microtransations too please mmmm.
>>725073406ask god
>>725073898paradox has been like this for a decade
>the addition of hourly ticksholy shit why did they do this?hoi4 is ten years not FIVE HUNDRED
>>725074230have you ever played eu4?
>>725074230only combat and units ticks at 8-19the rest of the game ticks once per day
>>725074085Paradox likely pioneered it
>>725073406Why didn't you expel the jews?
>>725073406I mean it took until 1453 for them to take Constantinople, just fuck around for another 100 years slowly taking Greece/Thrace and surrounding the city from both sides, it's a comfy ride.
>>725073273Terrible game
>England sits around and does nothing, doesnt bother to take Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. >Castile doesnt bother to form Spain>Otto switches to orthodox Did they play the game during QA?
>>725073273did any of Emperor's features get preserved in V at all or is this a CK3 thing of waiting years for the DLC?
I can't get over the fugly 3d modelswhy the fuck would they add this shit into the game?
>>725073273I unironically just went back to Eu4 for a quick campaign as Granada. EU5 just seems way too bloated to fuck, numbers everywhere without any actual gameplay substance.
>>725073273>20 hours of just constructing buildings hoping something would change.yep, that sounds like paradox>crack>sip
>>725073273I never enjoyed the latest Vicky 3, that felt like a fucking chore to playWould I enjoy EU 5? I just want to conquer stuff and shit regardless of which nation I get to play as
>>725076941Really does need a grand exhibition mod to replace all the jeetslop and ck2 models
>>725079742No it's like vicky 3 but with even less conquering
>>725079656>>crack
>>725073273Paradox niggas be like "yoo this gameplay is fire"
I think this game is too hard for me, I'll stick with stuff like stellaris and civ
>>725080512This looks pretty fun, yes. What game?
>>725080512Yes>>725081458Victoria 2
This shits crashed on me like 3 timesSo I try to play AUH instead but its not as interesting as EU5 right now
>>725080512I bought a new pc just because eu5 is like this
>>725080512>sets steel stockpile to max and clicks the buttonWhat now?
>>725081841
>>725073273EU5 is meant for people that like the buildup of an empire than just blobbing from the get-go
>>725073745They mixed up/are combining the Preclassic + Classic Great Temple of Cholula with the Postclassic one hereThey were separate structures, not one structure iterated on for 1200 years, and were dedicated to different gods (Tlaloc/the Rain god for the former, only the latter was to Quetzalcoatl)
>>725073745I bought this and don't regret it
>>725073745>the Auld AllianceGreat. Scotland is my go to country whenever I come back to EU. I bet that shitty dlc either makes it too easy get the French on board to tank the English or introduces events that just completely fucks that possibility up.
>>725073273They should have added a 1399 bookmark
>>725076937The jews at Paradox have done the exact same thing in every game since EU3. What the fuck do you think?
HOW DO I REMOVE THE JEWS
Wish there was Shattered Empires so I could play France from zero to hero
The start date shouldn't have been too far away from the start of colonization and global trade1453 or 1444, some time just before the Byzantine Empire's end, marking a border between the end of the medieval period and the coming of the early modern period, was the sweet spot
>>725076889Of course not
>>725091843Nah fuck that I hate firearms and colonizationGive me earlier start dates
>>725073406Should have build hospitals instead of conquering.
>>725081632Check your cpu temp perhaps. Even when this game is PAUSED (eg in main menu..) it maxes my cpu cores and I have a shitty intel stock cooler and without limiting my max GHz a bit it would go to closer to 90 deg. Celsius.Plus there's absolutely no reason for a strategy game to run 60+ fps. Limit it to 30.Streamers have been detrimental to rerards in gaming.
>>725073898>plan to further develop the game past releaseAre you new to grand strategy games?
>>725073273I just can't figure out how to play this game. 5000 hours in Eu4 and I'm paralyzed and quit without a year passing. It's so demoralizing.
>>725073273You can have your parliament form a cb for free without even a spy network.
>>725092134You are too used to EU4. Cursively reading everything is also a mistake. Slooowww doowwwnnn and set tooltip delay to 1-2 seconds, this will force you to stop and think slloowwly. eg you're just used to getting your way and sort of coast out of habit and that's not good.
>>725092370Thank you bro, I'm doing it!
>>725073406>1/5That's good. The bizzy 1/3rd of their pop and I steamrolled em.
>>725073952genuine braindead take
>>725073273Is Kingdom of Aragon a hard civ or am I just shit? I got BTFO’d by France within like 20 years.
>>725092134Breh you just you need to get in the mood to learn.Automate all the shit you don't want to bother with and try to figure out how to play.
>>725092134Conquer lots of vassals, improve relations and then annex them for cores. Make sure not to ignore society page, go to it and recognize cultures to lower rebel support. Build roads to spread control from capital to settlements which improves your taxation gains. If it's overwhelming just slow down the timescale or automate shit like trade and production. Haven't played a gsg in years but I used to play eu4 a lot and whole eu5 is a lot different I think it's pretty fun and will likely be way better than eu4 in the future. That said I'm still learning and have put in only 10 or so hours.
It's...pretty awesome. Feels like I'm playing a modded CK3/EU4. Game has amazing potential. Keen for the GoT mod.
>>725079564>numbers everywhere without any actual gameplay substancegoncerning
>>725092787The base of the game is fantastic. If this gets half the dlc quantity of EU IV then it'll be the GOAT.
>>725073273Got claim the throne cb on the naples as byzIn the end after 4 year long siege of their capital and multiple loans the game doesn’t let me subjugate them through the peace deal, I can’t even attempt to as there is no such option in the peace deal selectionThanks paradox
>>725080512dem fuckin' POPs man
I am actually enjoying it more than EU4 atm. Trading, laws and research are much more interesting. The only weird thing so far is the diplomatic penalty. If you have 1 (ONE) alliance and one fieldom, you are usually above diplomatic capacity in the first 100 years.
It's really good. I am shocked.
Hmmm...should I wait for it to get seasoned or do I eat it raw?
Man you really gotta blob like a retard to keep up with the balkans as the turk.I thought the smart thing to do would be to gobble the other beyliks to get more primary culture land for the control boost but nah.

>>725073684Because it isn't unfinished. You just can't release a new game built from the ground up around new systems that ALSO has as much content as the old game that's had content piled on for the past fucking 12 years.>every single new game needs a superset of the old game's contentLiteral retard shit for the dumbest of faggots. This mindset alone has caused more damage to videogames than almost anything else, and is a huge part of why service game bullshit is so common.
>>725095138Uh huh. Vomit out some more of your retarded thoughts I need a quick laugh.
>>725095173Sorry, but I don't keep engaging with retards that can't even summon up a token pathetic argument.
>army randomly refuses to movebug or am I retarded?
>>725095208LOL cute save dumbass
>>725074230It's to make combat realistic. Combat shouldn't take days and adding hourly ticks removes the unrealistic reinforcement juggling that EU4 had, since battles took months there. Playing on speed 4 is almost the same speed as EU4 speed 4, at least for me.
>>725095329Pointing out that you said nothing is not a "save"
>>725095357Pointing out that you're retarded is an argument kiddo.
>>725095394False
>>725095261Are you on a enemy fort's zone of control? If so, walk the same route out. Are you in mountains during winter? Too bad, your army is stuck there. Maybe don't put your army in mountains during winter.

Spent the day playing as Milan. I fucked up though, should have abused the Ghibli casus belli and subjugated as much land as possible. Because 30 or so years in the HRE passed that stupid law that forbids internal wars without valid CB. No fun allowed.

>>725096264Yes, and I'm going to nail all the reasons why to this door.

I would play these games if they had actual battles like in the Total War games or something

>>725096547there's a mod for crusader kings 3 that starts mount and blade warband so every battle you fight can be a real-time battle

>>725073273Is there continuity between eu I-IV, like can you import saves?If not, where's the difference between IV and V then? Same time period means same shit happens again, doesn't it?

>>725091981NTA but why play an EU game then? The entire point of the game is to model the age of discovery > napoleonic era. Why not go play CK?

is it good?
>>725097325Yes. Some dedicated tranny is trying to gaslight these threads by same fagging because it's not his mana dogshit eu4. It's vicky2 levels. Johan decided he wanted to make actual gsg again and not normiecore MP dogshit. Expect a lot of seething

>>725073406>Lose 1/5 of my country>as opposed to the real thing that killed 1/3 of the populationyou got off lightly, and yes, it's going to take generations to recover manpower, just like it took in real life, that's the whole point of the black death plague
>>725098508>>725098582and in real life, HRE spent most of its existence fighting civil wars with itself, mostly religious utter bullshit, and if a foreign country attacked them, they couldnt defend themselves and relied on outside support to bail them out.i remember reading history of the HRE a couple years ago in college and it was a completely retarded rollercoaster.
>>725096264The Bible has a clear definition of what a saint is, anon. You using a definition that goes against that as a defense for something else you shouldn't be doing is funny.
Redpill me on Eastern historyDidn't Japan rape itself for agesAnd China was getting gangbanged by the entire world

What country should I play first?
>>725100352>the british colonised most of the world and brought civilisation>implying it's a good thing>implying the portuguese and the spanish aren't guilty of this eitherin any case, we have empyrical evidence that if you reach a new place and it's settled, raze it down to the ground, burn everything and start from scratchand don't leave, this is the most crucial step
So this is CK3 for actual autistics and without all the fun of medieval Sims?
For me, it's declaring France, Britain and spain as my rivals on day 1. They WILL submit to golden bullcock
How do I beat bigger nations early on if all I do is levy troops instead of building an army?
>>725100674Yes
>>725100501>Nigga read a history book.ok im reading it right now. >Britain was a nothingburger until it got its greedy little hands on India for unlimited money cheat.not really no, what you're thinking of are the Dutch. >>725100650>implying colonisation is a good thingits not a good thing, its a GREAT thing. nothing more awesome than reclaiming land from retarded non-white savages and building civilisation in that place.

>>725100482ARGHH THE JOOS WERE BEHIND THIS, THE JOOS DID THIS
>>725100997Cost depends on ratio. If you, a tiny OPM with fuck all economy and soldiers gets spain as an ally, it will cost you a lot more capacity than it would them. You see this number in the tooltip when going to request an alliance btw
>>725100891No I'm not thinking of the Dutch. I'm thinking of England, a country of little importance in European affairs from the end of the 100 years war to the 18th century. Lucky that storm saved you from the Spanish armada or you'd still be nothing
>>725100307>wereOh, they still are.
>>725073745Why would I buy this slop when mods will be superior and completely free?
>>725100194I have 16gb and the game only uses 5.5gb of RAM. No sign of it writing shit to disk like Vic3, Stellaris and CK3 do when you don't have enough RAM.I have seen several people with more RAM than me claim the game rests at 11gb of RAM usage though, and while I'm not sure yet there's a possibility that some of the lighter bugs I get are from lack of RAM. I might be wrong though.
>>725101085yes

>>725103743Eu4troon seething
does the slowest speed run on hour tics or day ticsI'd be curious how it'd feel to play at a speed that mostly moved hours
>>725096547Not having to play a janky RTS every time there is a fight is one of EU's best features.
>>725103810you're trying way too hard
>>725103823Literally not a single thing happens at the hour mark outside of battles. Whoever thought of this concept needs to be fired at once.
Why not just call it vicky 4? This game plays nothing like any previous Europa.
>>725073745My main gripe is they lock new mechanics for all nations behind content for a select few. The content for select nations should be standalone and new mechanics should be free updates. If I never want to play Byzmemeium, but want access to whatever new general mechanics they package in to it, then I'm fucked. THAT is why paradox are the ultimate jews.
>>725103982Tricking idiots into leaving a perfectly good game to play a shit game.The era of EU4 has only just begun. With no more expansion, the game's finally finished.
>>725102361you did it through the laws UI, changing laws in there costs a ton of stability
>>725104074>>725103906>Eu4>GoodHahahahahahaha holy shit kys eu4troon
>>725103937Why, retard? The hours are doing exactly what they are supposed to do.
>>725104243None of the UI shows hours; it shows days. Not to mention the performance tank.
>>725104243You're replying to an eu4troon who thinks a battle of 2k men should take months to resolve
>>725100232There is navy levies, cant you do with it?
>>725103587There are ways to raise that tech+ buildings iam more worried about the AI sometimes being too passive
>>725104384You're so embarrassing to watch jesus
>>725102361>>725102139Law change is different from revoking estate privileges btw, are you sure you did it right? Law change instantly spends your parliament capacity so even if your original measure fails you should only lose the 7 stab as normal.
Are Daimyo in a playable state atm?
>>725104335Change your clock setting in the options and slow down, it shows hours.
>>725104534And you are a seething faggot tranny who will never ever influence paradox to appeal to your horse shit tastes ever again
>>725104661Sort of, they start as stateless (like banks) until age of discovery and then all pop out as OPMs and ruin your game as Japan. I think it's broken.
>>725095873This. The game runs great. I have 32gb ram, 7800x3d and 4070. All very easily accessible for a employed man, brownies notwithstanding.
All I'm doing is building roads and slowly see the money go up to build more roads10/10
>>725104941Building boats is cheaper and easier (if your land is coastal)
They need to make the AI more aggressive
>>725100674What is it with this CK3 retardation? There's nothing about CK3 in this game. It's Imperator: Rome 2.0.
>>725105040It is but it's opportunistic. Relations don't seem to matter if the AI rivals/declares on you for no real reason.
>>725105107Forgive them, brown thirdies only know about ck3/vicky3/eu4/hoi4. It's all they think of what /gsg/ is despite those being paradox' absolute worst offerings in the genre. Literally none of them have touched eu3/vicky2/hoi2&3

>>725105497You don't have any unless you're Byz.
>>725097218fun manaslop > boring economy sim
>>725105646Manaslop sucked, everything they added to eu4 after release was non-mana missions and one time bonus estates and shit.
>>725105779>everything they added to eu4 after release was non-mana missions and one time bonus estates and shit.Because the mana system was flawless and didn't need changing
>>725106003Not even Johan says this anymore.
>>725106149>Not even Johan says this anymore.Idk who that is faggot
>>725106195I know, newfriend, that's pretty obvious.
Why are people so disingenuous on this website?
>>725105040I've already had holland and brandenburg game ruined by england and poland. At least for smaller nations AI seems pretty aggressive.
How can you make countries your vassals?
>>725106738mixture of bots and maligned losers
>>725106764Yes, or fief or dominion (all 3 are different in eu5)
>>725106742This, like in eu4 it was pretty trivial to just maintain high relations or alliance networks that kept GPs off your back but not so in eu5.
>>725106764You can do it as part of a peace deal or when you go to the diplomacy menu. If you're a monarchy you want to split subjects between fiefdoms and vassals since they only count the combined strength among the same subject types.
>>725106821>>725106958I see. Vassals were the only subject types I knew, that's why I was talking about those specifically
>>725106780which one are you?

>get measles outbreak event right as I close my border for bubonic plagueOh Johan>*Loads autosave*
I never played 4 except for a few hours of a pirated copy. How does DLC work for this? Do only a few countries have fleshed out "missions" and everyone else is stuck with generic stuff until they slowly drip feed updates for the rest of the world?
>>725107848It's an actual game
>>725108002Can you answer the question instead of looking for subtext that isn't there? I'm interesting in actually picking it up.
>>725107848There aren't real missions and a ton of the flavor is "the hundred years war is still going." So really everyone is generic at release, like ck3.
>>725108059It's a video game about Europa universalist, set in the end of the medieval period going through the age of enlightenment. You pick a country and make your own goals. Yes, there are flavor events for all the regions. No, it's not being bing wahoo you get ironman death squads retinues for playing as Prussian like ck3 and eu4
>>725104531AI being shit is easier to fix than it is to fix than the underlying mechanics.They repeatedly failed to curb blobbing in EU4 despite trying many different things.
>>725108062>Ah yes, Naples and Novgorod are exactly the sameWrong lol stop trying to force your shitty taste on others
>navy levies get completely destroyed when you disband them for some reason>have to wait years for it to build up again after a warDid they forget how it used to work in ck2 or something
a lot of people playing spacewar for some reason
>>725101939thats pretty fucking kino, imo.
>>725108526well clearly a lot of people were against
>>725108404Navy levies are confiscated commercial vessels.Of course they will disappear once you disband them.
>>725101939That's a big if Poles
How long until they put the netflix dlc subscription in they tested with Stellaris?

>>725108661>>7251087632nd best war record in Europe, right after France, who is 1st (historically France has the most badass war record in the world).Bow before french military superiority. ironically, the 2 countries with the worst most awful war record in europe are.... Germany and Russia. The frenchies have all the right to act like smug motherfuckers when it comes to history (we all know western europe is in the shitter now).
It took me 100 fucking years but I finally got Scotland into a decent spot to fight England. Only problem is, as strong as my standing army is, their fuckhuge Levies are really hard to deal with. You couldn't just pull a giant 50k stack out of your ass in EU4 so it seems much harder to deal with bigger countries now. And Levies really suck to use for the player because it sets you back in population a lot.
>>725108197>No, it's not being bing wahoo you get ironman death squads retinues for playing as Prussian like ck3 and eu4Are there any army modifiers?
>>725109173Levies should be like 1/5th as strong per unit if you have a good General and drill them for experience. So a 10k Regiment should beat a 50k Levy. Fix your formation so your cavs flank
I CAN'T STOP BUILDING ROADS AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>725073273I'm just checking out the game and damn it's insane the amount of stuff and mechanics they added. I was expecting it to be a lot more barebones until they started to release the DLCs but I'm feeling overwhelmed, and I'm experienced with Paradox games like EU4. They basically added stuff from Crusader Kings and MEIOU and Taxes too
>>725110472>Eu4>Paradox gameThat's like calling clash of clans a strategy game.

>>725115917>>725116159>Why is a decade of post launch support a bad thing?I assume you guys know that the actual nuance here is that most people who talk or complain about this tend to emphasize that the content of the 'ten years of support' are often seen as overpriced for what they actually offer or represent feature releases purposely cut up into pieces for easy monetization as they slow drip it to the audience. People can cite the unit packs or various content packs as easy examples of the type of post game release content that is criticized the most. There are instances of significant features that people expect for the base game (either on release or as a base game update) which are then inserted into the dlc for the sake of prioritizing the monetization over ensuring the best experience of the game. Not making a definite statement about what is right or wrong about their setup for post release content (although naturally someone will take this out of context or interpret this how they please) but there is plenty to be said about how their content releases tend to be perceived. The fact that many of their dlcs are negative in rating or release to plenty of critiques about the balance/technical stability/cost to value says a lot.

>>725100232kek I also did something similar.
what should be built before the black plague? building goods buildings seems pointless as the demand is going to collapse.
So is it fun or not?I'm hearing a lot of conflicting opinions, and the usual "come back in 5 years".
what do I do with this? they're not my subjects like in eu4
>>725119620you can build hospitals but they really don't do much and they cost a lotI would spend them money on roads or RGOs, as RGOs are *always* profitable and provide either inputs or pop goods.
>>725119772eventually if things go well you can make them your bitches and even annex them. mini hre mechanic
Why the fuck would they pick a fight with me specificallyIn what way are our interests at odd
>>725119772You need to maintain it and mess with laws if you want it to actually do anything. It's an international org like the catholic church so it has its own rules. Also make sure to check your diplo capacity (not the green bar) to make sure you're not over, alliance orgs are really heavy compared to regular alliances.
>>725119772>3 at onceoof that might be rough to pass the laws but basically you will get a bunch of laws to pass and you can keep the union separate or pass centralizing laws (one is to make them join all offensive wars) until you unlock annexation
>>725119702It's already ok, the UI is kinda shit but the biggest issue is the AI
>>725119702To me, the biggest hurdle seems to be how much time you have to spend on it. Probably the longest overall campaign and timescale (with hourly ticks), no start dates to choose from, plenty of game in the most shallow era has to be played before even hitting exploration and discovery. Which is a turn off for me.
>>725119934nords seethe at the existence of succesful meds
>>725120075You can explore and colonize from the start of the game, it's just expensive.
>>725103179morocco and the ottoman empire are not in europe
>>725120075Hourly ticks are extremely overhated, they run in microseconds since it's literally only troop movements and battle calculations.
>>725118408I mean in the modern era
>>7251199892 at onceim milan
>>725120075>plenty of game in the most shallow era has to be played before even hitting exploration and discoveryRIP PortugalAlso doesn't that just mean people will quit even earlier? Basically no one played EU4 until 1600.
>>725108526"God's Hand Made Wonders, God's Hand Made Me"is my favourite medieval quote
>>725118214Then they should be expelled into hell prior to being crucified
>>725073898>Doesn't remember on-disc DLC's
I've played Eu3, Vicky2 and CK2, started Eu5 but I'm a bit overwhelmed. Any tips?
>>725120116>from the start of the gameI assume not up to the coast of the Americas and other exotic locales. I'm talking more about the era of globalizing trade and colonialism than just having the function of exploration. I'm sure that Spain and Portugal have some early exploration within their relative vicinity.
>>725119620I have been hospital maxing but just to test I'm gonna try to explicitly make things worse for myself as boheemia. Last time trying to max disease resistance I ended at 1.05m pops. Writing this for my own records will be back shortly
i really really wish they don't just add later startdates, but also an earlier startdate set in 1265 or something, would be absolutely epic
>>725120329>Basically no one played EU4 until 1600but that's because you could blob and become so powerful that you would roflstomp any coalition by that timeif they have made expansion harder, then maybe it will remain interesting for a longer period
>>725120432treat it like dwarf fortress, try learning one thing at a time and keep in mind you'll lose and restart a lot.
>>725120542Sorry mean to say after black plague came and went first time, no other diseases. Obviously if smallpox or something else hits before would change my results. Is there a disease resistance mechanic built in and hidden somewhere for pops? Like if I get smallpox twice is the 2nd time much weaker due to immunity
>>725120617exactly >>725120329if they don't listen to trannies and leave the game more or less as it is, without a few nations conquering everything people will play for longer, unfortunately too many troons complained about "nothing happening" because there weren't a grand total of 15 countries left by 1811
>>725120617I haven't seen anyone show EU5 late game yet, I'm very skeptical
>>725120528Oh, yeah you can't cross oceans until age of discovery, apparently the ai caused problems when they could cross early.
>>725120542the plague is semi random right?>>725119872roads and rgo's that drop construction cost(lumber stone)?I was wondering if any control buildings are worth it or building more towns/settlements pre plague. I've played till 1400 and save scummed plenty to get a handle of what fucks shit up
>>725120329>doesn't that just mean people will quit even earlier? Basically no one played EU4 until 1600Yeah that is a possible issue I'm waiting to see addressed by those who have significant time with the game. If EU4 was the kind of game rarely played up till the later years due to players gaining too much momentum to lose in the first few decades and just the general attrition of interest in a campaign over time, I wonder how does this manage to maintain interest when it starts even earlier and takes longer. Some may say that anti blobbing measures will help, but I'm already seeing plenty of people dismiss the AI as a worthy challenge and dominate their campaigns early.
>>725118354Which CPU model?
>>725115276Maybe if the jews didn't poison wells post-Black Death, they wouldn't have gotten blamed for it.
>>725120854>>725120542the plague is semi randomthe plague can be removed from the settingsthe plague can be altered from the options by changing the origin location from the settingsthe plague is not a problem
>unprofitable buildingsTHEN MAKE THEM PROFITABLE
How do you set to ignore unprofitable buildings/population displaced etc
>>725121002im going ironman second run now that I have the ropes. so I shan't be doing that.
>>725121002I love the plague. I'm just trying to survive it with ~25% of my people decimated and not 60-80%. My first run as moscow I got raped and lost a solid 75% of my pops. And pops are power, so if you can lose a factor less, then you're set to stomp all over any rivals in the region
>>72512091810700>>725120854don't worry about diseases, construction materials are good to expand and roads are your only real control expanding building for awhile. expanding pop goods like wheat/fruit are good because pops like them and they're used as input goods.re: roads, don't go too crazy they're expensive and eventually the estates will build them for you, try only connecting them to your city/town settlements at first.

Since they now will be releasing quadrillions of DLC each week can I finally assume that EU 4 is complete now?
>>725123641but i pirated the game anon
>>725122837It clicks in the same way victoria 2 clicked and that's why it's a good video game.
>>725123675Happened to me too
>>725123371Take an hour looking at stuff before unpausing.
>>725123870my fellow russian enjoyer, maybe something about the player being russian does this
>>725123896yes but what buildings should i build, this is what i don't understand? should i just build rgos?
>>725073506Victoria 3 didn't need 50 DLC to become good.
>>725124023Maybe you're onto something, it didn't happen when I played the Eastern Roman Empire, they just conquered me instead.
>>725121971Yes, besieging is and always has been a factor of leadership not being fucking retards
>>725122837Kys eu4 troon
>>725123870Someone on a forum claimed its because they start with more orthodox subjects than muslim
>>725124267Fuck off sperg
>>725124317Well logically it just makes sense, Orthodoxy is Christ's true flock. And the ottomans probably read the zutt passage and were like "We gave up Tengri for this shit?"
>>725124356Call him a eu4 normalfag and it runs off him like water. But call him a troon and watch his shrink back
it's 1362 nigga what guns am I supposed to find
>>725124138you can automate buildings and let the game play a bit and get a feel and then seethe ui looks intimidating but it's actually quite good, in the building tab there's an expand RGO button and then it pops up a list and you can sort by profit. so mouse over whatever the flags at the top where it shows what inputs are being bought by pops or imported and then find the most profitable sources of those and expand them. this is all basic vicky2 stuff anon, didn't you play the only good paradox game????
>>725096772Is there something like that but just for city building? For example, where you can micromanage a city/town under your rule. At least the capital.
>>725124418it could just be a revolt that changed them. I haven't looked at the pops myself but in 1337 western anatolia is irl orthodox for centuries.
Once you conquered a lot of provinces you're supposed to automate buildings unless you want to min max everything
>>725124497you may call him eu4 normalfaggot, manabab, casual, it all runs off him like water off of a rain coat; but call him a troon and see how wounded he is! how he suddenly shrinks back,>i've been found out
>>725122937>>725123189>playing paradox games on release
my union is big and it keeps getting biggathat's cause jesus christ is my nigga
>>725124571BUILD arms nigga like what the fuck nigga how is this even real hahah just build the factory in yo capital nigga haha
>1400's>netherlands already formedwhat do i do now?
>>725124882quit because retards haven't thought about the pacing at all
>>725080512>Exported 1.0k coalO shit nigga what are you doing? Just build more glass factories.
>>725124882colonize and keep the stinky spanish from owning you.
>>725124882colonize, maintain a concert of europe
>>725124167Because it's fundamentally broken and can never be fixed?
>>725117719>conquer Spain>make moneyCARTHAGO DELENDA EST
>>725103179Anon, what's the name of the game?
>>725123371You have to watch multiple youtube tutorials from different sources to understand what the fuck you are supposed to do. Yeah, it's shit but it is what is is.
>>725122937EU5 sounds like the worst fucking paradox game ever, stupid ai decisions ruin entire playthroughs on their other games for me. IM NOT PLAYING THIS SHIT
>>725123371roads if your nation is of decent size. and stab slider if you want to change government/laws, stab is your mana.
>>725103179>he playes OOE
>>725125160>>725125257when you expect to spend several thousand hours on something a small learning curve is expected
>>725124882colonize and/or blob into the english channel (southern england and northern france)
If you don't think EU5 is the tightest shit we can't be friends
>Large threads on /v/ and /vst/, lasting 12+ hours, over the launch of a fucking Paradox title of all thingsWhat the hell is goin on guys
>>725125381You'd expect devs would make it possible for people who give them money to be able to understand it simply through the game alone
the fuck is this shit
>>725073273we are so back chudbroshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U99oQSFvgIA&list=PLchKrUy6HCEGphRJi1lUTbQ6qBZ88Xu7z&index=1
>>725125882I see a lot of CK tier border gore in a lot of these pics..
>>725125753it is, there weren't any youtube tutorials for vicky2 and most of us figured it out. if you don't want to take the time to mouse over stuff you can watch a video.
I remember playing EU4 for the first time thinking that it was going to be extremely difficult, but getting the gist of it in 10 minutes. Then Paradox kept making the game easier and easier with more mission trees and permanent modifiers to the point that it was comical, and "good gameplay" meant rushing mission trees and then swapping to another country to get their mission tree. It was always retarded that you could swap national identities as easily as a pair of shoes and there is zero negative repercussions at all. EU5 is already MUCH more deeper and complex than EU4 ever was, it's frankly not even close. The learning curve is fucking giant. It's a pain in the ass so far to play this game at all, but I think that this can end up as the best paradox game.
>>725125882>hungary not using vassals for control and free incomeevery game>look at iberaWTF lmao
I didn't order this Library to be built, how did this happen?
>>725126250>this construction in the ESTATE CONSTRUCTION part of the outline is a mystery
>>725126250estates can build buildings with their money, just like capitalists in vicky
>>725126250estates do whatever they want
>>725124882With or without Belgium?
FREE FROM TEMPTATION
Why can't I fabricate claims?
>>725126445without since france own all of belgium
>>725126727ask your parliament bro
me? I just watch the map as I cant decide who would be good to learn playing as
>jan mayen not playableshit game
>>725126395>>725126408>>725126420I just, didn't know that could happen.
?
>>725126853incidentally this is also why you want to release low control areas as subjects. you don't get shit but the estates get the full benefits from low control places, where at least you get some tax and ai soldiers from vassals.
>Oh my atheist, did you just right-click in the rivals menu to exit the menu? That's an instant -25 stability for you, with no warning!Why are they like this
>>725126167>read tooltips>try thing out>doesn't work>stare at it for 10 more hours>it's supposed to magically work nowretard
>>725127085is there a vassal limit I have not understood that, its never hurt me yetI've seen 3 level vassal teutons-livonian order-courland.
Can someone explain to me why a game that's just a bunch of menus needs a great PC to run?
>>725127248you didn't read the tooltip correctly
>>725126750Then you know what you must do, Netherlands isn't complete without Belgium
>>725127279sort of, you have a diplomatic relations capacity but it's weighted different than eu4
>shitter nations in shittenburg and fartfurt coalition me>people don't want to be my friend even if they have a combined total of 200 guyswhy
>>725127203wait what?
