at least it had my favourite 2ACW outcome

How would (You) fix Kalterkrieg?

it's not good but I never got the level of vitriol redditors had against it, you'd think it had shot their dog

>>2052147 (OP)
Well there's nothing in the mod that makes it rememberable

>>2052166
Give the 2WK an objective and definitive winner, at least in Europe. For the sake of this post, I'm gonna say the 3I destroyed the Reichspakt but don't have the navies or are too exhausted by the cataclysmic war to invade Canada to finish the Entente.
Canada, meanwhile, has similar issues. Not even with the US having joined the Entente can they invade Europe. A grudging Cold War ensues.

Cold War things happen. Space Race, Spy War, proxy wars galore in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and maybe South America.

Meanwhile, realizing Syndicalism is an ideology with no future, the governing bodies of the members of the 3I start becoming more and more authoritarian. Former members of what used to be the Reichspakt (namely, everything west of France) start having massive social unrest. Internal conflict seems inevitable.

Friction between the England refugees and native Canadians worsens. Surely the Crown has overstayed its welcome?

Russia, obviously, is no better off. As the 2WK went worse and worse for the Reichspakt, the Russian armies managed to capture White Rhutenia, the Baltic States, Ukraine and were about to force Poland to surrender when the 3I armies arrived to the Eastern Front and delivered a humiliating defeat to Russia. Everything west of Omsk fell under the control of the 3I (as either one big "sindikat", or many small ones), everything else is disparate warlord states.

And for goodness sake, alter the borders as if a World War happened. KKG didn't.

>he kept the same shitty title that invites newbhoi4 players to post their shitty vanilla hoi4 questions rather than discuss TFR, the greatest mod in gaming
WHY DID YOU DO THIS OP? WHY DID YOU FUCK UP LIKE THIS?

>>2052166
Have things happen would be the first step. Mod fucking sucks dick.

Hey, OP, tysvm for putting "Hearts of Iron 4" in the thread title. That means I can ask my question about vanilla, unmodded Hearts of Iron 4! How do I win as Germany? What's a good tank template? How do I use aircraft? Also, please allow me to include input on Hearts of Iron 4- this game is fun! I am contributing valuably to the discussion and content of this thread with my questions and input. Thank you again OP for including people such as myself in this thread.

>>2052166
1. keep the 1948 start date, but make the 2WK end in mid-1944 instead of late 1947. The 3I lasting 7 years, despite having no empires to draw men and resources from is illogical. This also gives the setting more time to settle into the cold war, or rather, second interwar period.

2. Add another superpower to the stage, Japan. They will be the newest superpower, and as such, the most aggressive. Their shenanigans will be what starts...

3. More proxy wars. These should be 'warm-up' conflicts, like what the Spanish civil war and Fourth Balkan war in KR are. Winners of these proxies get the proxy country into their respective sphere.

4. Make the Entente much more extremist to have them stand out against the landed conservatives in Germany and Austria. Action Francaise for France, imperial Unity Party for UK. Their revanchism will be the basis for the Third Weltkrieg.

5. Make the Third Weltkrieg the big event of the mod. The biggest critique of Kalterkrieg was that it was too boring. This is the most fun, and easiest solution to that. However, the third Weltkrieg will take years to build up to, and years to actually fight. To account for this...

6. Extend the playable timeframe to the late 1960s. This will give all countries time to rebuild from the Second Weltkrieg, rearm, and fight the Third Weltkrieg. Extending to the late 1960s also gives wiggle room for post-war content.

>>2052351 (me)
With the fundamentals done, here would be the smaller changes to the world.

- Swap Russia's gains in the 2WK to the Reichspakt winning the Eastern Front. Ukraine, Belarus, and UBD get their borders expanded east some bit. A Reichspakt puppet covering the Caucasus is also set up.
- Russia itself is under "temporary" military rule after Savinkov refused to peace. Their border with the Reichspakt is demilitarized.
- France remains split, but the border of the German puppet starts at the Swiss border, goes northwest, then follows the Seine River.
- Eastern China as a whole comes under the Fengtian Government, with the west being split between various warlords and Tibet.
- Scrap Canada, fold it into the UK.
- Have the AUS in control of the continental US, east of the Rockies. No midwestern or New England puppets for the Entente.

Yes it's very nice to finally have a general thread for HOI4! Personally I only use the default templates for Germany because they're there but mostly I just build infantry because there cheaper. idk why you want planes since they can't take provinces so you should just not build them.

There are probably more ways to completely ruin the mod but I think if you do this then you have a pretty solidly ruined mod.

>JD Vance has gone from from author, to US Senator, to VP in two years
That's nothing. Trump went from "convict", to fryer, to garbage man, to POTUS in two weeks.

But if you uncover too much, you get Clintoncided. You lose stability.

Retard politics, that's what. It's why every team should stand guard against it.

>>2053125
That's way too interesting. No, you're going to get a black and white, 100% government-approved version of events where you heroically put insurrectionists behind bars and the worst fail state is that some of them just evade justice for longer and drain your PP influx (possible soft lock by trapping you with negative PP gain for added awfulness).

I swear KR devs are like boomers trying to be hip with the kids. They've been stuck in their 2018 vanilla mod mindset for years and now they're trying to modernize their mod and and failing miserably. What the fuck is this mech, man

>>2053953
Ah yes, exactly what we asked for. Stupid minigames.
Make the devs walk the plank, switch to KX and never look back.

>>2053953
They've been on this path for ages. The Germany update copied the card game and NPP slogans to give two examples - so late into things that TNO was already deleting all that content by then.

Imagine jumping on the TNO bandwagon after it's gone off a cliff, lul.

it's over

>>2053953
The whole point is that nobody actually wants to take up the massive task of an America rework, so they're doing a quick and dirty solution to make it slightly less old. America is basically untouched after 7 years and it really shows. This is an improvement.

>>2054007
/vst/ only likes 10 year old content or emperor norton kx meme path and there is no inbetween

>>2054007
>No one wants to rework it

??????????

>>2054012
/vst/ is positive about lots of things but you can't expect people to get hyped about ~2020 vintage mechanics that people soured on years ago.

>>2054018
>lots of time and energy
This took one or two guys a couple of months to do. It's 15 focuses, maybe 40 events, and a couple of "mini games" (click event options which make one of two numbers go up, make sure at least 1 number is 6). An actual America rework would take a full team of people years (see Up With The Stars), even if they were Chinese it'd still take them a few months which is saying something. So this really is a lot better than nothing.

>>2054035
No, a bad update with a bunch of minigames no one asked for is worse than no update just like how 0.8 was worse than just keeping the superior 0.4 content for America.

>>2054044
Let's just feed that into the old translator here...
>I like gobbling gay ass and taking it from behind
Oh. Well, ok anon, I'm not one to judge anyone's sexual preferences. But did you really need to tell us that?

>>2054012
I wish there was a way to have the KX civil war but without all the meme content. The serious stuff and overall feel of the civil war is way better but it's weighed down by hundreds of focuses and events about shit that stopped being funny 6 years ago.

It's not mod devs' fault if, aside from the mandatory big conflict the mod eventually leads to, the USA are overall a fucking boring nation to play. Your country has neither culture nor history, and the only way to make it fun in a game centered around war is either make it collapse into a gruesome civil war or fill it with gay reddit minigames about building walkable cities.

>>2054183
Or, you know, use your alt history setting to set up some interesting conflicts, military or otherwise.
>NOOOO ALL THE PIECES HAVE TO LINE UP SO THAT NOTHING EVER HAPPENS!!
At least, that's what HOI4 modders tend to say.

why does KR put all these fucking downer events in
>win ww2 as savinkov
>all his former compatriots are disillusioned with him or purged and he's slipping into yazov mode
"errm don't you mean *realistic* events?" "No!" I didn't even play him as a megalomaniac when I had the option to. and besides, the events are always a propaganda machine, so why is my personal goebbels being a smarmy bitch and telling me all my achievements were for nothing

>>2054035
>So this really is a lot better than nothing.
Is it, really? I'd rather have something interesting instead of a minigame and a railroaded war.
Winning the minigame with both numbers being 6 doesn't prevent the war, it just makes it easier, which is horrible railroading AND retarded. It's TNO shit.

>An actual America rework would take a full team of people years
And that's bad because...? Something done late can be good, something bad now is bad forever.

>>2054191
Modern KR going the way of TNO and lecturing you for playing as the "bad guys"

>>2054191
Red flood is really the only mod that doesn't make Savinkov into le hekin evil russian hitler

>>2054191
Why do you even care? Reading events longer than a chapter is for VNfags.

>>2054057
KX has so much potential. Their America,Sand France,Canada and Russia content is far superior to KR.
But noooo, the devs will focus on adding shitty world conquest paths for countries like Luxembourg or Vietnam instead of actually finishing the Austria update.

>>2054234
What about the other countries? How does KX compare to KR there?

>>2054241
Overall, "more". Sometimes better, sometimes worse, but certainly more.

>>2054241
Other majors such as Germany or Japan have not been reworked, so you just get the vanilla KR experience. The minors are a mixed bag. They either include actual fun and interesting paths(Afghanistan taking the mantle of a collapsed Ottoman Empire and trying to reclaim their empire) or stupid unfunny meme paths(Tibet getting war goals on the entire planet at the end of their focus tree).

Every time the Kaissereich “devs” release an update they prove they hated the original lore and the original mod.

It’s not even the same setting at this point.

>>2054397
Why do devs do this? It happens to all my favorite mods. Some jackass comes in and just throws out everything people liked.

>>2054191
KR has gotten a semi TNO treatment where the modern modders clearly dislike a lot of legacy content
like the person writing the progress report on this America rework is very open they disliked the old names and wanted them changed even as they wrapped the change up in the same muh realism spiel they always fall back on for arbitrary changes like this.
>>2054419
basically the problem is the original mod didn't give a flying fuck about "realism" and just created a wacky althistory mod that was really fun. the problem is said mod attracted fans who actually took the mods' premise seriously and said fans with the hoi4 mod took over. essentially the fundamental problem that happens when you emphasize "realism" over fun.

>>2054397
What do you mean

>>2054449
>le realism spiel
The old names were just retarded. The joke was never funny. The new names make much more sense.

/vst/ will dickride the "original dev's vision" or whatever while failing to remember that kaiserreich on release was mutual masturbation for an irrelevant ideology (syndicalism). The mod was borderline unplayable unfun trash 5 years ago. Every update since then has made the game better by making countries actually fun and interesting to play, improving the wars, and adding interesting writing that makes sense. Kaiserreich devs for the most part understand that it's a game first and foremost (germany edges the line). America is going to be a piece of trash nation that isn't worth playing after this update but that's not because of anything the devs are adding now, it's because America was always terrible whether today or in 0.8 or 0.4 and no amount of small cosmetic changes will ever fix that.

>>2054475

I still do it of course, but I wish it was acknowledged.

>>2054506
Yeah. Everything old was terrible. It was boring as shit to play and to read. All the new content is way more fun to play because there's actually stuff to do. But you're a vibenigger who only cares about le aesthetic and le funny quirky reddit chungus alt history instead of actualy gameplay. So why don't you go back to your own website, tourist?

It's usually just TNO and KR that get that treatment. Kalterkrieg gets a honorary mention because... Well, no one remembers it.

>>2054553
It's ok. A bit flawed but ok. Worth trying at least, I liked playing as the USSR.

>>2053981
It is still weird how KR nu-devs want to desperately change the civil war set-up, but they still don't move Huey to the Midwest. That is one thing that was weird about the original, and that KX actually improved. by splitting Huey and Southern Democrats into different factions.

>>2054738
tbf the OG basically just set out to have a simple 3-way balanced by regions, don't think there were heavy lore considerations in the original days.

>>2054815
I know, I am just saying that it is weird they don't do it like that if they so desperately want to change it.

Yeah okay

>>2054871
There's a divide in the Kaiserreich community between people who view Huey Long as an evil racist fascist southerner and between people who view Huey Long as a basically alright dude/progressive. And that includes people in the dev team. If they moved Huey to the midwest/west that would require writing out his connections to southern reactionaries, which would be too controversial to the Long haters who see it as apologia/whitewashing. Also this update doesn't actually include map changes which minimises the amount of effort it takes, while if Long got moved it would require a lot of code changes and rebalances to make the war work properly.

>>2054007
>This is an improvement.

>>2054475
You're a colossal faggot if you prefer card games and flavour text about local party politics over actual gameplay.

>>2054950
It's an improvement for gameplayfags like myself. Current america prewar gameplay is sitting there for a year and a half while you're not able to build factories, equipment, divisions, or take advisors/change policies/take decisions, choosing the outcome of the election in 1 event, and then clicking two focuses. Not that the American Civil War and postwar content is actually fun enough to bother waiting for though.

>>2054952
>actual gameplay
What gameplay nigger? Fucking sitting there clicking 70 day focus after 70 day focus giving you +1 civilian factory or +50 pp or reducing your debuffs incrementally by -5%? The Civil War ends in a matter of months if you're not lobotomised, then you have to click through 15 focuses to clear your debuffs, then you click a focus to join the war, then you bludgeon everyone to death in less than a year with your 600 factories with zero effort.

Same as TFR from scratch to release.

>>2054475
And instead of making America fun to play they do stupid minigames?

>>2054871
I'm sure the problem is similar to India where everyone wants to rework it but there's no consensus on what exactly will replace it. So these updates act as a stopgap to calm the autists without the extra effort required of the full rework

Only a freak like you would have such a meltdown over this. God forbid they add actual narrative to the prewar instead of a series of 5 events which give minus stability. They even still have the path where only the reds rise up lol they haven't changed anything related to the actual war.

>>2055246
Hoover is cool and funny, and he did have an actual narrative of inheriting a country after great depression and several failed interventions against syndicalist uprisings around the world. You are clearly an ameritroon apologist.

Well its okay, I started going through the Yazov path and finished reconquering eastern Europe.
Kind of strange just how easily you get to invade everyone and no one bats an eye, even TFR felt more grounded in that sense.
Still, not terrible.

>>2055246
>X old lore was bad
>X old lore never existed
>X was just a blank slate before nudevs came along to transition it into greatness
God, this really is the TNOfication of the KR devs. Same smug elitism and disregard for the people that liked the mod and the universe that was built up over the years.

>>2055299
And it's indefensible. This new crap is worse than what we had.

>>2055303
Even if it was fine the smug elitism on display just makes me want nothing to do with it. Feels like having a self-important "media analyst" tell you that something you grew up liking is "problematic".

>>2055209
Okay grandpa, maybe if you played it when it was called All the Russias. But by the time it was released for hoi4 the devs were very much in their syndiewank stage.

>>2055299
>>2055303
>>2055316

>>2055299
and you have the same miserable bitching. If KR didnt update past alpha 0.1 you would be perfectly fine
>>X old lore was bad
Its serviceable but I prefer a fleshed out narrative over essentially. but as I said you would prefer 0.1 so its like talking to a wall.
garner-wagner - canadian reps - intro events for long and reed and mac - heatwave - strikes - election

>>2055338
>If KR didnt update past alpha 0.1 you would be perfectly fine
Compared to "this way to nuTNO"? Yes

I remember playing Kaiserreich on release and thinking it was garbage then. The first playable countries were the ones that came with the China rework. Every country outside of China, the Balkans, and Eastern Europe is still trash.

>>2055338
>If you don't like my reworks you have to like pre-alpha placeholder builds
>Muh fleshes out lore
God it's literally TNO dev behavior. No, we just dislike the direction you're taking things and your hostile attitude towards old lore and people who preferred it. The board is generally fine with a lot of the changes KX makes for an example because it doesn't shit all over the old stuff and it's players.

>old lore gets revamped causing minimal changes to the overall gameplay
>99% of the complains are from contrarian retards whose arguments can be summarized with "old good new bad"
every single time.

>>2055354
Who is "we", schizo?
Also this >>2054295

>>2055345
I still believe that the China rework was the highest point of the mod ever, from there it all went down after.

>>2055361
Where Brazil?

>>2055071
I'll go look at the post, they better have changed the Great depression in some way to account for this or else its just retarded.

>>2055361
It's bad enough that you cope the development style of the TNO devs but did you have to copy their behavior too?

>>2055362

>>2055354

Absolutely mindbroken by TNO. You can't stop thinking about it for one second. Nobody else is talking about that piece of shit. But despite how much you profess to hate it you apparently love nothing more than gobbling it's cock.

>>2055428
Using the destination of the path you're traveling as a warning is not "being mindbroken", it's "stop, or you'll end up like that"
But why are you shitposting here, Corn or Mango or whoever you are? Don't you have Brazil to do?

>>2055433
I don't need to engage with you anymore. You're obviously a schizophrenic devnigger falseflagger who is shitting on Kaiserreich to make your own mod seem less terrible. Maybe if you spent less time owning the chuds on 4chan you'd have an update that wasn't broken. Also, this is an imageboard, so post some fucking images you tourist.

how'd these threads go from shitting on tno to becoming stalin-tier paranoid schizophrenics thinking everyone is a dev

Why, when the KR devs seem quite adept at doing that? It's the devs that should be shit on. KR still lives, but it's headed down perilous roads.

Germany is fun, very similar (unsurprisingly) as France, but different. A few things- FdP path is OP and the best political party. You need to take the pro-nuclear focus, because anti-nuclear doesn't work and you just get hit with the malus, and you should really, really go down the Putinverste route because the two trade focuses that follow give a permanent 19 factories (even if you later go Nazi/Communist).

>>2055716
Is that so? interesting, well, maybe I'll try it later then, most likely with the nazis because the commies seemed real barren and ze bugs are getting improved upon pretty soon so, best just wait honestly.

Literally zero (0) gameplay content is going to be removed in the upcoming KR USA facelift, yet four name changes and an update to the lore not a single soul cares about is enough to make the clitties of a few dedicated schizos leak

>>2056089
If it's not a big deal at all, why change what ain't broke?
If it's not a big deal, why spend dozens of paragraphs in your progress report doing preemptive damage control?
If all you did was change a few names around, what are those are walltexts about altered lore about?
If no gameplay was removed, doesn't that make the minigames you added superfluous since they aren't replacing anything in the build up phase?

>>2056094
>If it's not a big deal at all, why change what ain't broke?
Its an aesthetic change. I can understand if you dont like it but the pacific states being called the pacific states is goofy and im happy piss yellow is being removed
>If it's not a big deal, why spend dozens of paragraphs in your progress report doing preemptive damage control?
"damage control" is a unique way of describing a few paragraphs that tell everyone that its not a rework just a lore update and surface level changes. Do you like your progress reports to have no context added?
>If all you did was change a few names around, what are those are walltexts about altered lore about?
"You" lol YOU are a freak schizo who cant wrap your head around the fact that not everybody is as much of a petty miserable loser as you are. Anyway yeah its a lore update. Did you have a deep investment as to who won the 1924 election before this update? or did you just start caring now?
>If no gameplay was removed, doesn't that make the minigames you added superfluous since they aren't replacing anything in the build up phase?
You say "minigames" which obviously shows you didnt read the progress report. Only one is being added and its a small thing involving a compromise with long that one possible president can do. Its expanding on the assassination choice that olson has in the current version.
In conclusion you are a miserable faggot that needs to rope NOW

>>2056089
It’s not the name and color changes that’s bothering anons. It’s clear that this is the first step to a full USA rework, and most of the people here don’t believe the nu-devs are capable of making it anything else than a railroaded, minigame bloated slog that will essentially punish you for playing anyone that isn’t the CSA. Whoops, I meant the WCA.

What sounds better to you guys, CSA or WCA?

>>2056098
>We alienated several users for a pointless aesthetic change/feelings
Even if we accept your point of view this is a terrible reason to erase what a decade of established lore and work around it.
>We spent several paragraphs insisting that the rework isn't a rework also that we did lots of lore changes, despite me earlier saying that it was just aesthetics
lol. lmao.
>Did you have a deep investment in the old lore?
Yes, I liked it and find your updated version to be objectively worse and you should feel ashamed for whatever part you had in shitting out that turn.
>NOO YOU DON'T GET IT THIS MINIGA-
Oh, so the old content is being replaced by a shitty minigame no one asked for? And the expanded content is something that a lot of players will hate because these things have been out of vogue for several years now? Thank you for coming clean about this.

Anyway keep ruining your mod. KX exists and I'm happy it does, at least they care about the world and its lore unlike you people.

>>2056101
CSA is, or should be, the Confederate States, which are completely different in every respect from Syndie USA.

>>2056098

It fucks up immediate visibility. On a zoomed out map it's harder to tell which non-syndie faction is winning.

>>2056196
> KX is the Victoria 3 of HoI4 modding, pure sandbox mappainter with 0 depth.
TRVTH NVKE

>>2056196
Kaiserredux is a real mixed bag. A big problem I have with it is structure. Take Al Capone for example. His successors clearly have a lot of love and care put into them. But they're basically just different coats of paint with no meaningful differences between them gameplay wise. Capone dies, then you choose the successor, then you click 5 focuses or whatever in order, and they just give national spirits/pp/stab/whatever. I think the best country to play in Kaiserredux is Ukraine, where it takes the overall gameplay and structural skeleton from Kaiserreich Ukraine, but adds new paths, new interesting gameplay options, and the lore/writing isn't made by a Ukrainian nationalist/murderer apologist. Minigames also aren't bad and can be very good. It just depends how they're done. TNO is the bad example because all the normal gameplay is stripped out and the minigames are all that's left. But in Kaiserreich and certain countries in Kaiserredux, the minigames provide interesting things to do before the war and ways to personalise or optimise your country, and have a meaningful impact on your performance in the war. They're in service to the primary focus of hoi4 as a wargame rather than being for their own sake.

>>2056220
New KX content is a lot more polished and fleshed out, in my opinion. Look at Illyria, Hungary, Capone, Morocco and Poland. Then compare it to Canada, SnadFrance, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Mittelafrika and Ireland.

The new content has taken a lot of notes from Home of the Brave (the US rework KX integrated), and it’s for the better.

>>2056210
They are deffinetelly not moving away from whacky paths, but they are doing what RF does, trying to base their whacky stuff in the niche ideas that actually existed at the time. And by moving away, I mean that they were doing that for last two years at least.

/vst/ would rather have the one millionth KR vs KX debate rather than talk about the new TNO update.

KR works on my machine, KX doesn't. Therefore, KR > KX.

>>2056248
Must have been a boring as shit update if nobody feels like talking about it.

>>2056248
True, literally no one in the /tno/ thread has given a shit about it. It's mostly just mini games, GUIs and broken shit since they released it early. The most fun garnered from it was the fact that half the events had no text in them which is funny considering how elitist they usually are about that.

Biggest surprise though has been the lack of shilling. When Mexico dropped they were relentlessly shitting it for a few days. This time it's largely been muted. Deadest ass fucking mod ever. Of course people are going to talk about KR and KX. Say whatever you want about either, there are good reasons to like both. More than you can say for TNO at this point.

>>2056248
1. The TNO people will talk about TNO on the TNO thread.

2. The new TNO update is for Brazil, and it’s not even the full 10 years. Interest in the update is going to be very low here.

>>2056255
>that half the events had no text in them which is funny considering how elitist they usually are about that.
What the fuck? I thought they sacrificed gameplay so they could go all in on story?

>>2056254
>>2056264
No kidding it's just a liberal and conservative route for Brazil. Almost no gameplay, nothing but minigames and events. In a third world country barely affected by the German win. KR vs KX grudge match #23897 is going to be way more interesting.

The only interesting thing to come out of it is that the Brazil lead finally resigned meaning that the tag is finally dead.

None, I guess? The ones that are supposedly active have been in rework hell for years. Germany has been in rework hell for about as long as Brazil was in development, Amur has been in rework hell for over two years, etc.

>>2057090
I think KR's one or two paths are better than KX's, but the problem with the KR Russia rework is that it makes it seem like there are 4-5 paths when in reality several of them are merged into the same path. It's been awhile since I played it, but that was the impression I got.

At his point "minigame" is just yet another buzzword whose only purpose is shitting up the thread and trolling. I value the opinions of those bitching about muh minigames just as much as I value those of people who unironically use [word]slop

If I can't play on 5 speed because my country will collapse from not clicking buttons the instant they show up, then they are a minigame.
Having to pause and slowdown to 3 speed constantly is a clear indication of a "minigame" negatively affecting the fastest part of Hoi4 which is the pre-war portion.

Its unrest towards the current regime, its supposed to be a mechanic to allow for changing the govt. Its not even a minigame, its literally just a progress bar that changes based on events and focuses. Similar to the Balance of power mechanics, which is already in use.
Savinkov (hitler-stalin combined) path is by keeping unrest low.
Republic+Socialists path is by inciting popular revolt.
Empire path is by inciting a military revolt.

>>2057327

FTFY

>>2057371
lbh if a modern westoid handled the writing it's going to be Putin-Putin-Putin filtered through a Hitkerian lens.

>>2057371
hearing academics talk about savinkov and then seeing the write up the devs made on him its like they're two totally different people.
>savinkov was seriously distraught after the assassination of the tsars uncle and deeply spiritually conflicted, but maintained a deep set faith in liberty and fighting tyranny in all its forms
>savinkov got his rocks off to killing, wore ideologies as a skinsuit and would've been buddy buddy with hitler if he had lived longer

Green NatPop grew on me desu, much better than brown.

>>2057238
It never left, they just updated it

>>2057407
even in original DH KR Savinkov was comically out of character. In like 12 years they never figured out a better Russian Revolutionary to have turn into Hitler

>>2057442
Savinkov's only like 9 years old, maybe even a bit less. Replacing Wrangler with him either occurred close, or after the HoI4 release.

>>2057448
It was in KR4 v0.3 I think. Just before America got content for a timeframe.

Is Kaiserreich a realistic alternate history scenario?
I've never heard of these 'Totalists' before.

>>2057624
>Is it realistic
According to Reddit, yes.
According to functional adults, absolutely not, it has a goofy setting with an American civil war, a strand of anarchism becoming the dominant world ideology, and back in the day used to have even more crazy content. They're currently competing with TNO to see who can ruin their mod with "realism" first.
>Totalists
They are the in-universe hardliners and broadly replace communists. In this world, Mosley remain in Labour, Mussolini is swept up in a socialist revolution and various French guys that later become fascists IRL remain part of the syndicalist movement. The result is an ideology that is reminiscent of national bolshevism although that's me being very reductive. There's more to it, but that's the basics for 1936.

>>2057657 (me)
Addendum: KR's setting is still plausible if you can suspend your disbelief and isn't complete nonsense. It has some clever PoD elements to justify why things turn out the way they do. It has some good alt history in it.

>>2057657
Not a single soul thinks KR is 100% realistic, the implausibility of events like the american civil war happening, the british monarchy getting overthrown by miners and italy casually returning almost to their pre-unification setup always get pointed out when asking about realism.

It is really hilarious seeing anons, I will not mention, as to not embarrass them, complain about KR lore being changed, but then they are seething about Savinkov for 100th time and want him changed. When Savinkov was there from way back when it was still Russian althist and the entire point of him was that his life went differently and he became more radical after syndies gassed his family.
Although, I will say, it is a shame, that more mods don't use Rodzevsky. Because he too had some wacky ideas.

I want to plat Xi's China, but Loji is too cute. What to do bros?

>>2056248
>>2056254
>>2056264
This update was such a letdown, there is a lot that they could have done with Brazil, a country that created it's own brand of fascism (even though the movement failed OTL), and it's known from the extreme syndicalist crisis in the past, plus the whole "pistolero banditism" that was rampant on the north at the time, years after such issues were fixed on the US.

They just picked two guys who could have ruled the country if the military didn't coup the former gov and wrote fics about it.

Heck, since the Axis won, I don't why Getulio didn't remain in power forever. Was this ever explained?

>>2057744
They just have Brazil support America and fight for liberal democracy at least until the start date. It really lines up with their North America content in general.
>Axis victory timeline
>The Americas are more liberal, democratic and stable than irl
Literally the worst decision humanly possible for the continent.

>>2057757
I am quite surprised they didn't go full OTL with Brazil. Brazil being couped due to Murican plan Condor at the game start would fit well into the narrative of "Nixon bad" that the devs have

>>2057771
True, it's crazy when you think about it. The only times they change the world from OTL is when they want to go out of their way to make it more boring.

>>2057780
>Devs went out of their way to make a alternate set of events that made it more boring than real life
Tfw we could have Brazil's police state coupled with it's rampant corruption and all the farmhand uprising that was going wild at the time.

Heck, those fuckers managed to kidnap a murican ambassador once.

>>2057797
Yes that's the insane part, for all the interesting shit that could happen they did absolutely nothing and anything that even hints at something interesting is a fail state of some kind or at the very least has no content. Plus their lead resigned so the tag's dead. A redux might as well rework everything from scratch, there's almost nothing worth keeping.

I've finished the Germany playthrough in Fuhrerreich, it was pretty fun. Basically more polished vanilla Germany with a couple minigames sprinkled it. Good stuff.

Does anyone here know if the flavour expanded mod for tfr extends to monarchist russia?
Just debating between a black hundreds or a logi run

More expansions for TFR China, this time for the reformists. (Not coming in 1.0.7 tho)

Someone recommend me a well-made, bug-free mod that doesn't lag like shit

>>2057881
Pride and Fall. Play either Calisia or Brotherhood of Coal. Don't let Poland scare you it's fucking great

>>2057887
What in God's name is this mod???

>>2057624
>I've never heard of these 'Totalists' before.
Cause its a KR thing, its supposed to be high level authoritarians like communists, hardline marxists and fascists with left leaning tendencies like Mussolini or Mosley. Strasserism and Ernst Rohm for example would count as "Totalists".

>>2057887
nayrt but I remember pre-TFR/RD when that briefly became celebrated in /tno/ as the mod to play instead of TNO because it was just really funny. Something like warlord Russia, but far more light-hearted and satirical. Good fun.

>>2057895
Absolute kino.
Basically Poland impoded due to EU wankery and couple of nukes. In terms of gameplay and style it's closer to TNO Russia but more fun. Also the sheer amount of choice of "how to fuck up poland" is holy fucking shit. For the time being only 3 countries have full content (full poland unification + epilogue), but the ones that do are really good.

>>2057725

No? Refer to this post. >>2057448

>>2057871
Does he get an attack bonus against himself?

>>2057871
Do we know if there'll be other routes than this coup? It's good that the reformers are getting more content, when I played them they were extremely bland.

>>2057871
I thought this guy was an OC cause of his name, but no they really named their son Man.

>>2057916
Never let them know your next move.

>>2057905
Suka, what? Wrangel was always an option from the beginning alongside Savinkov.

>>2057901
Love how the brotherhood goobers use COAL as currency. And then you develop a coal crypto later on

>>2057936
nayrt but Wrangel predates Savinkov. He was the NatPop in the earliest versions of KR4. Savinkov was added shortly after the initial release where he replaced Wrangel as the NatPop, and Wrangel subsequently became a more moderate autocrat in the wake of the Kerensky assassination. NatPop Wrangel was my first run in KR, good times with that one.

>>2057937
They released a really funny teaser recently for a Eurotrash shithole based entirely around football fans (they'd lynch me if I used the S-word here) with an economy based on bookmaking or some shit, don't remember, but their little mini societies are really charming. That mod really has heart.

>>2057947
It could be like that actually. Imo, now that I think about it, Denikin would also be funny natpop leader, considering how he was the most brutal member of ROVS (also the most antisemitic)

>>2057947

>>2057952
Pretty sure Denikin has always been PatAut and part of Kornilov's part of the pie chart? Could be misremembering though, it was a fair bit ago that I played vanilla KR and it's harder to check now that they've reworked it all.

>>2058011
I'd recommend learning the ropes first in vanilla. Play a few games as major land powers like France and Germany. Some of the big mods will probably overwhelm you with everything going on otherwise, and WW2 itself is a familiar setting to learn the ropes in.

>Utility mods
Honestly just use colored buttons, maybe player led peace conferences. Just sorting mods by subscription count should help you here really, the utility mods usually have the thing they do in the title. Grab the historical German flag while you're there.

>Big overhaul mods
Try out The Fire Rises with its music mod, it's the new cool thing for mods.
Kaiserredux is another good one, it's the best "vanilla+" mod. Not a foll overhaul, but a new 1936 and lots of things to do.
Red Rusk is another recent mod. It's modern day, but strikes a good balance between the setting and just being relatively easy to get into.
Red Flood also has a very interesting setting.
If you're a fan of Fallout or MLP, I'd respectively recommend Old World Blues and Equestria At War.
Avoid The New Order like the plague no matter what anyone's told you, it's extremely beginner unfriendly and has zero regular gameplay for most tags at this point.

Hope you have fun and manage to get into the game.

>>2058033
>maybe player led peace conferences

PLPC is an absolute must for any mod that doesn't make liberal use of scripted peace deals. If you don't have this mod, you WILL get fucked over by the awful warscore system at some point.

>>2057742

>>2058976
Good for them, I really liked KR's content for Central America and if they can deliver on some small scale action in the region that's neat. Cuba might be interesting too. Guess it all depends on the actual content but I'm cautiously optimistic!

>>2059010
>Redux title where it doesn't belong
>Off-brand memes
Yep, sure looks like a Chinese knockoff brand to me.

the weird part is, they didn't even put out teasers for the new red world content, not even a release date
it just dropped, which makes me think they are done with the mod

>>2059080
Considering how it took five years and RDRD is still not out, and how this update took three years, I would not be surprised if that turned out to be the case.

>Do KR L-KMT run, trying to go SocDem Wang
>Somehow end up losing to power to SocLib Song
Wtf, when I tried to do a SocLib run it was a pain in the ass due to radicalism constantly lowering it and needing PP to counter it. I accidentally stumbled into it trying to do a different route and there wasn't really any penalty for it. There goes that run and a few hours I suppose.

Pepe it's still a thing a thing on Korea. If anything the memes are too CURRENT for the timeframe. Where's honkler for example?

>>2059306

no, just take the great entity path instead of servant of the people

>>2060477
>>2060492
There is a mod that keeps her in power if you go down the servant of the people path, but it's pretty janky and if you do the normal reformist political tree she can still get booted by some of the focuses. Would be neat if they ever added a way to keep her in power while still doing that path.

Cant we just mass report the TNO server and every dev for grooming minors? Have Discord nuke their faggot ass server

>>2062164
That made me think. Did anybody here ever see a Trump victory? Because I haven't. Even though winning with him is piss easy against the AI.
It's only ever the UOA or the APLA after the PF debuff.

>>2062164
>300
>But it's the last 300 MAGA boomers holding off an endless horde of PFeds, APLA and their Chinese handlers for a year
This is legit really fucking kino.

>>2062333
It's possible if he lucks out with an invasion by PF against Biden and APLA then gets stuck in Cascadia.

>>2062396
Fair enough, but how often does that happen?
I think that's the problem with the "growing stronger as time goes n" kind of gameplay, because AI is just to retarded for that

>>2062414
>How often
Not very.
>AI is just too retarded for that
They should honestly just set Trump to have a 200% defense focus early game via AI modifiers. I think you could also give AI Trump some extra light infantry to plug gaps. That should be enough to have it not be a complete anomaly any more.

>>2062418
>They should honestly just set Trump to have a 200% defense focus early game via AI modifiers. I think you could also give AI Trump some extra light infantry to plug gaps. That should be enough to have it not be a complete anomaly any more.

Yeah something like that is desperately needed.

>>2062423
Would solve a lot, usually his AI crashes and burns because he tries to attack a perceived weak point. If fails terribly. Frontline eventually collapses. And to prevent him from becoming passive, just have the defense modifier go away when all his debuffs go away halfway or so through the starting tree, when he actually CAN push. This is also around the time the NA forms too, it's perfect.

>>2062396
He held out in Denver for a really long time against APLA as well
Since later went American Socialist I'd imagine if they or PF wins those Maga soldiers would gain quite a bit of respect. They held on against impossible odds for quite a while
He also has attack buffs higher than me, albeit not by much.
Meanwhile Union of America collapsed like wet tissues
>>2062333
>Pf debuff
Yeah, it's quite noticeable. You used to be able let national front handle APLA but not you have to stay on the frontlines to prevent them from pushing through

>>2052147 (OP)
any mods that allow edition of builidings/provinces?
basically a cheat/ingame editor mod?

>>2062333
>Did anybody here ever see a Trump victory?
No, I've only ever seen him win when playing as him. Hope they tweak the 2ACW in the future so there's more variety in who wins and what path they went down.
>It's only ever the UOA or the APLA after the PF debuff.
Eh, I still see the PF win often and occasionally the NSM somehow comes out on top. But yeah it's mostly the UOA now which is fucking lame unless Bloomberg sweeps.

>>2062487
>occasionally the NSM somehow comes out on top
lol nice. never seen that happen personally.

>>2062534
Doesn't happen often, but when it does it makes for an amusing 'lmfao what the fuck?' moment.

>>2062545
I live for those moments. Lawrence Britain, Zlatoust or Aryan Brotherhood conquering their regions, things like that. It's the 1% of cases that make games exciting.

What the fuck is this? Looks fun. Pure schizokino indeed.

What's the premise?

>>2062679
>What the fuck is this?
From Men to Wolves.
>What's the premise?
Not entirely sure, here's some stuff from the discord's FAQ
3-How did the USA collapse?

USA collapsed after US military tried to overthrown president John G. Crommelin as he was a danger to their much more powerful military-industrial complex.

4-How did the USSR collapse?

USSR collapsed after several years of violent power struggle between Stalin's successors, with eventual uprisings being unified under KONR-ROVS coalition pushing Soviets out of European Russia.
5-Why are there cults?

Counter-culture to traditional conservative values in the world was much more radical and violent, giving a significant popularity boost to various new age religious and spiritual groups.

6-Why Fascism and Nazism are still around?

Operation Unthinkable caused two major affects on western Europe:

A) Population living in western Europe became far more anti-communist, partly even seeing German Nazis as a wrong enemy and that Hitler was right about USSR. This was a major boost for radical right wing groups.

B) During the Operation Unthinkable almost all major fascist-nazi collaborationist militas were recruited to fight the Soviets, leading to their partial rehabilitation. Without major denazification of Germany, many former SS officers and Nazi influenced military figures still play the role in the government.
7-When does the mod start
January 1st 1990

P.S Technologically FMTW World is ~6-13 years ahead than OTL — depending on the region and field.

>>2062704
Hey that sounds awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Is their Discord a shit-show or is it worthwhile joining?

>>2062735
>Is their Discord a shit-show or is it worthwhile joining?
Honestly I really don't use it outside of being in there to get teasers, if you're interested in the mod and want to see teasers I'd say it's worth joining.

>>2062752
What's a place where you can find it?
Also this looks like ass, but in a way that has heart, you know? It's like a kid trying to recreate early TNO and I kinda doubt any of this will work or live up to the expectations I'm giving it in my head. But damn it, it sure isn't an island skeleton where nothing ever happens and the leader is the Wikipedia approved OTL leader - maybe the opposition candidate in the historical election, if you're lucky.

>>2062784
https://discord.gg/gypqzbXy

Just finished my Loji run and here are some thoughts I had about it
China can't seem to really get it's economy to turn a profit even with solely building civilian factories and office parks till 27. I only managed to start profiting after getting the third Loji upgrade which grants hefty bonuses. But when I did start making money I started making it big time.
Don't know if it was due to losing the war but I couldn't influence countries before Japan, and you don't get a popup to tell you that the influence tree became available.
Servant of the People subpath tweaking and something to keep it interesting because it gives none of the cool stuff Great Entity does. First focus that changes up policy will put you over trillion a month deficit.
Blockading Australia to peace out doesn't put them out of the faction and they will rejoin in a short amount of time but you can't remove the state attack and speed debuff when they do and the AI refuses to do the battle plans and attack on it's own, making it miserable.
I do wish China had more options with interacting with the rest of the world.
Over it was pretty great except for the final stretch of island hopping in Indonesia, Papua, Australia and New Zealand.

Which mod has the most historical and accurate China/Warlord situation (without being completely autistic)?

>>2063185
Not KX.

>>2062623
>>2062635
>Search for the mod
>Very low activity for years
Concerning but it might just be concentrated to their Discord.
So what's the goal of the mod even? Crazy people as a premise can work but even Red Flood has several long term conflicts in mind. Also please post more of these we're already at the bump limit anyway. No, I'm not getting Discord for this.

>>2062118
Can confirm, COM3D2 (if you know you know) it's a pain on the arse just to run.

Definitely not this one.

>Leafs are seemingly the most sane people in this mod
What did they mean by this?

This one and the rest I'm going to post were in the 'teaser-archive' section of the discord, not sure if that means these teasers are no longer accurate or what but I'm gonna post them anyway. Just keep that in mind when viewing them.

>>2063481
I don't remember that game having a poser mode, like Koikatsu does.

>>2063511

>>the others but 4chan won't let me tag all of them
Thanks!
I vaguely remember the ones from the teaser archive ages ago. Guess that explains where the mod ended up. Good to have these out of the way while we're at the bump limit anyway!

It'll probably never release but knowing how these things go, maybe that's for the best so that it doesn't end up becoming a piece of shit like TNO. Can you even imagine what it'd take to turn this into "realism"?

>>2063555
thanks for posting these, they are all really cool
hope the mod actually comes out, because it seems pretty unique
The closest thing I could compare it to is Red Floor, but it seems to wanna try doing things a bit differently.

>>2063706
From these pics, it looks like Red Flood, but misunderstanding everything that makes Red Flood interesting.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YY3SLoyCUjg&ab_channel=TheFireRises

>>2063791
That's a bit harsh. If you look back at early Red Flood pre-alpha teasers a lot of them just sold themselves on the spectacle of "funny AnPrim France creates Free Peoples of Europe" and the like. It's just another one of these mods like that and Extremis Ultimis and I guess LoHaLi that are really unhinged. They usually aren't good but I like RF and could easily have dismissed that mod based on its early teasers.

>>2063806
>Russian Imperial flag thighhighs
What an odd mix of cool and cursed.

>>2063791
I disagree entirely with that last part. It looks like Red Flood, but instead of creatives taking control, it's nihilists, sadists or very desperate people who are trying anything that MIGHT work to get out of the current social and cultural malaise.
Which is pretty interesting in my opinion, since I like a world in which shit gets fucked SO HARD that the current culture/political sacred cows get burned at the stake and have to be replaced with something else and new, and fast.
It's also why I wanted something like Beyond Earth to actually come out, but that piece of shit turned into vaporware because the mod devs got 'demoralized' over the average mouthbreather not liking their UI.

>>2064023
Agree on the take on FMTW. Has potential, let's hope they deliver.
>BE kill
Aw really? Fuck that sucks. That looked better than the actual game. In fairness to the dev it was faithful to the game's UI, but... That's not a great UI. Honestly they could have made most content with a cleaner font and some more readable menus.

>>2064023
>>2064093
any mod that changes the UI, even just the colors, will get a lot of complaints before people get used to it

>>2064104
>People dislike UIs
There are acquired tastes like Red Flood and early TNO, and then there's just being hard to read. The latter is hard to excuse. But I think they could've fixed it. TNO's earliest versions were pretty hard on the eyes too but they improved that by the release.

>>2064162

Are there mods that give Saudi Arabia content? Not thinking about total conversion like TFR, I want to be the giga oil sheik of WW2 and generic focus trees are boring.

>>2064195
Kaiserreich (and by extension KX I think) have focus trees.
RT56 has a Saudi focus tree? I think? Not sure haven't played that in ages.
Slim pickings though sorry.

A TFR dev gave some insight on the Redneck Revolt.

>>2064390
That's surprising. You'd think they'd be anti-establishment innawoods people from deep red states like Kentucky or Alabama.

>>2064396
Yeah that's what I was figuring they'd be, not sure what exactly they're gonna look like now. Like are they just gonna be the APLA socialists but lean conservative socially? How about alt paths what can we expect to see there?

>>2064396

No other unique names for ideologies or leaders. They have unique (I think) generals, though.

Also, the LoS has David Duke as a general, lmao

Why does Red World run smoother than KR? There are more things happening

>>2064489
>There are more things happening
my guess it's because Red World just adapts vanilla mechanics and it's not wars and focus trees slowing down KR, it's mini-game bloat
all those shitty political power card games have to take up space

>>2064476
>David Duke is still alive
Huh, not sure why but I thought he was dead.

>>2064528
He's in his 70s. He should honestly have the old guard trait. He hasn't been near the army since the 60s or early 70s.

This probably deserves a crosspost: TNO officially deleting the last of its wars in order to stay closer to reality and having zero gameplay.
In the TNO thread they're also talking about 2WRW going back to using the new map and might as well go back to being a submod.

Rejoice! TNO is finally dead!

>>2064777
>What made them cuck
I doubt it's true since several leads were very vocal about not liking the new map. But if it is then it can't have been pretty.

>>2064787
Not everyone you dislike is a TNOdevnigger, that art was made by some other guy.

>>2064792
I know a lot more than you do about tranny russian libtards who were on tno and jumped to tfr. It's not that hard to recognise the style and the vibes once you've looked at it for long enough.

>>2063806
Just noticed the russian panties sliding down, absolute kino

>>2064809
The artstyle is definitely from a woman, at worst it's a transman who got more horny from testosterone

>>2064863
>this is not any indie game
It actually is. HoI4 modders making excuses when you call them on their bullshit and drama and laziness instead of working on a mod is never not going to be hilarious.
Especially when some of the well-known and popular indie games were made by a single guy or gal with a passion. It just always comes to show that these people don't make mods because they want to make something but for clout. Same thing applies to manga translators for example. It is doubly funny because HoI4 is piss easy to mod. All it takes is one hour a day or even just one hour over weekend, and you can make a well fleshout mod in a year. Especially when you have an entire team. This especially applies for RW, RF, OWB or even EAW. They are hilariously slow.

>>2064900
the collapsing world fags shit out content so fast
the only one I get is Red Flood because they are really art orientated

>>2064810
>They didn't reupload any of the old teasers when the old server got nuked
Bit odd, at least for teasers who's content hasn't released yet.

>>2064904
They are art oriented, but it still takes way too long, especially when the actual focus tree then is like 10 focuses. Some just giving you party popularity. They still do this even in the Polish update. And the foreign policy is also generally quite boring, despite how whacky some of these leaders are. Like how the Yugo leader wants to return Europe to the free barbarian ideal but then in foreign policy he just joins Germany.

>>2064615
>2WRW going back to using the new map and might as well go back to being a submod.

I didn't even know there was soul left to lose. Boy was I wrong.

>>2065044
Despite Panzer and others being liberals, the early TNO was peak soul with how grimdark it was.

>>2065084
They were further left actually. Pacifica was a communist even. The problem is radlibs and radlibs pretending to be socialists. That's what did TNO in. Fucking normies.

>>2064615
>2WRW going back to using the new map and might
I don't believe this unless I see a lead dev explicitly confirm it. It effectively kills it as a redux mod. Then again TNO jannies are know to spread bullshit about people they don't like here.

idk why but it's not working, I've followed the instructions but it's just loading vanilla, I managed to make it work with the base KX on git though

>>2065413
A friend of mine on the team says that they're going to do it after Omsk is out and that this u turn was rammed through recently. But I find it hard to believe too. Why make such a big deal out of doing your own thing and how bad the new map is if you're just going to go back a few months later? It makes no sense.

>>2065982
Both are reworking Austria, and neither are going faster than a snail's pace.

>>2065982
They're both trying to kill the "Hungary when" joke by having Austria become the slowest tag ever.

Nazi Germany coming back from the dead and the Middle East getting glassed really should get their own super events.

Nazi Germany doesn't, you already have tons of super events for far right Germany. Some event with people celebrating watching the nukes glass the ME on tv wouldn't go amiss though.
