Help me /vst/, my emotions, Im feeling them getting scammed away from me.>what game is itEspiocracy, a cold war GSG project by a polish dude>what's going on in the screenshotdev said this is a playtest where he had the USA carpetnuke the USSR before they could achieve a balance of M.A.D
>>2363841what do you even do in this game? youre a glowie agency during the cold war....doing what?
>>2363847as far as I understand, everything from coups, false flags, foreign interference, domestic subversion and typical blackbagging of dissidents.you might also be the one in charge of special force, but im less clear on if that's still on the table
>>2363841It's been about two years since I last looked at this game's progress, why does the map look like such shit now? Actually, why does everything here look so much worse?
>>2363869because everything up to this point was just a mockup, and now that its actually getting coded and put into the game its suffering from the fact that the games being made by a single autistic developer who is reaching way too high for what he can probably achieve. single dev both as in solo and as in never had a gf.
its still never actually gonna released btw, just get pushed back like 20 more times per year with nothingburger devlogs inbetween delay announcements. Sad. Play victoria 2 with that one cold war mod for a similar experience i guess.
>>2363841New teaser that dropped today: situation report when you load in
>>2363841Should I wait for tis or can I just play maestro's cold war 2https://cold-war2.com/en/index.php
>>2364465May his autism reach the peak of Dorf Fort and Factorio. And may Stalin preserve him from getting glowed before he accomplishes his autistic dream.
>>2367681Maestro's looks like Balance of Power with a domestic element tacked on. I liked BOP but I've never heard of that one, take that as you will.
>>2367681Would wait for Espiocracy. I think Cold War 2 is a bit too shallow for my tastes and lacks a lot of polish in things like the standoff mechanics and a lot of shit is heavily railroaded. A lot of historical conflicts like the Korean war can be kinda solved rather easily by spawning guerillas as the Soviet player. I would hold off on it at best.
