TFR hasn't added a single new country since it's release. I doubt I could be lazier than that

"DOESN'T COUNT!"

>>2102976
What the hell am I looking at?

>>2102982
Yeah it doesn't because it's just some cosmetic changes while gameplay stays the same

>https://xkcd.com/2149/
Huh, well based off the map and portrait styles it seems like the mod is based off Red Flood. If I had to make an educated guess it's an alternate world being speculated by those living in the Red Flood timeline.

does anyone know what the fuck happened to the great war redux mod's germany?
is there a path guide to getting fun paths anywhere?
>>2102984

>like 20 new paths and a whole new fucking war (3rd EW)
"doesn't count lol"
41% yourself already kateryna

Is the twink or the bear more fun for a democratic russia game

>>2102992
I think Kateryna went to bed. His posts are also dumber and full of Czarist astroturfing. This guy's probably just sad his country isn't in yet.

>>2102991
Retard dev deleted all of the alt his paths >>2101629

>>2102991
>>2102989
ToTA portrait style and was inspired by the Modernity Collective. Probably an amalgamation

>>2102987
Nice counter-argument
>>2102992
These "paths" amount to nothing but the change in leader portrait. Even the schwab was just a regular EU path with 1 new war without any mechanics thrown in the end which isn't that hard to implement since it's just two lines of code. 3rd EW didn't even work and had no new focuses or mechanics or unique puppets for eastern europe. After the war I just full annexed Germany and that was it. I could literally do that with allowdiplo so shut the fuck up it's not something that takes months to implement

>>2102998
I played to the end and won easily, there is barely any post war content and what's there is broken

>>2102993
Twink I think is the more moderate reformer whereas the bear goes a lot farther with the reforms and liberalization of Russian society/government.

>>2103001
what's it look like, anon?

>>2102998
>Fell for the cutting fun alt paths to be more realistic meme
Why do so many mods fall for this? I get not wanting to go too far and getting too outlandish, but if the paths are already in the mod and well liked by the playerbase then why delete them?

>>2103006
this is all you get
the moment you do the naval treaty, everyone renounces it

>>2103015
some cool events, emdashes and missing LOC

>>2103015
>>2103019
There is no post defeat content other than 1 decision where France declares war on you.

>>2103028
At least it's better than Kalterkrieg, it has SOME gameplay

>>2103028
There is a small and unfinished 7 focus tree for establishing Weimar in the files but there's no normal way to get it other than firing the event for it.
It ends with this shit ass event that sounds as if Hitler was some sort of a capeshit post-credits scene.
Then if you'd decide to play it for whatever reason without any tree or decisions you'd get Nazi Party formation event in Feb of 1920, 3 events for Beer Hall Putsch event at irl date, and then him being made Kanzler at irl date, and then Reichstag Fire
So even the unfinished post-defeat is just railroaded otl

Since the recent EaW update didn't actually add everything (or, indeed, anything) of what they're teasing I'm going to play OWB.
Recommend me a faction pls. I don't know much about Fallout so anything is fine.

>play TFR/KX
Can't. Computer is too shit.

>play KR
Lol.
ADDENDUM: lmao.

>>2103084
If your computer is so shit it can’t run TFR, there’s no way it’ll handle OWB very well. If it somehow does work, give Caesar’s legion or Lanius a shot.

>>2103084
Pioneer Company is fun, they're up in Canada.

>>2103084
i have a cpu and gpu from 2014 and can run a full game of TFR fine. Yeah it's slow, but it's not unplayable. Maybe I'm too used to having a shitty pc.

>>2102998
>You deleted all paths
>"But the one we left in is really good!"
Why do they always do this?

>>2103112
It's honestly hard to understand when that's not really the audience for their mod at all. You could say that it's something bigger alt-his mods could do, as that has been the design trend in the 2nd half of hoi4's life. But most tgwr players I don't think really want to see "this is just 1:1 German Empire, also here's two chambers you have to nanny before you will have to nanny a balance of power when the war kicks off"
Genuinely queer

TFRetards spammed cp in the tno discord again

>>2103116
Not suprised, tfr faggots are pedophiles

>>2103116
Zamn really? TNO devs we're eating good today. Did any of you sticky the cp yet or should I do it?

>>2103113
I hope that trend dies. I'd much rather explore some actual alt his, than sit through some autist's hyper-researched and extremely "realistic" nonsense. I think grounded and realistic routes are good to have and I don't hate them but they're not my first choice. So it's always a bummer to see when all choices get removed, and the only one that's left would be my 4th pick but extended.

tno discord is on lockdown after a tfr dev and his friends spammed cp

>>2102965 (OP)
I fucking hate TFR's dumb generic portraits and I hate even more the fact that they still haven't fixed all instances of them appearing during normal gameplay.

>>2103145
TFR devs have given up in the background there is very little dev progress being made right now

>>2102998
Holy based. More mods should ve like this. Fuck "fun"fags. Another victory for realismGODS

Reminder that the nutfr triumvirate nuked the czarist tfr discord and had their goons spam it with CP and animal crushing content until the entire discord was deleted.

Yet the gooner hoi4 modder is... worse?

>>2103157
Czar vindicated for the 50th time award

>>2103137
You can do both really, I mean research stuff and also have alt-his. Sadly a lot of people think research = deleting everything that didn't happen/anything that deviates from most generic and obvious outcomes

>>2103162
No, that's exactly my point. And no, I don't think anyone equates good research with deleting implausible content. My problem is that we increasingly just seem to get the OTL outcome or something close to it in these mods at the expense of any variety. The above GW example is perfect. It's bigger, it's apparently better-researched, but any way to get off the intended path is gone or heavily downscaled.

fuck tfr

>>2103166
You see it's a bit schizophrenic for a lot of people too. Since like Kaiserreich has been doing changes to pretty much make the whole world revolve around ww2 that needs to always start on a particular date, even going as far as pondering if not to add oil embargo mechanic to hamper Japan in the future. And various other things removed/changed due to "realism" and "plausibility"
But at the same time Savinkov is just full on what. With shit like pulling a katyn massacre-esque false flag on pows to show his army is dysfunctional, nuking London and Paris and then feeling bad cuz it didn't "destroy materialism" as he declared before, and throwing every single irl young conservative/nazi/strasserite etc as his "useful idiots" but then making it so he puts a rando military man in charge of german puppet cuz the "german savinkovists" are too irrelevant or crazy.
His death event when enemies capture Moscow and it's just Hitler killing himself in the bunker, even with SAVINKOV DEAD included to mirror that famous newspaper is just a cherry on top.
So ultimately for people like that it's less of a question of realism etc cuz it all flies out of the window when they want their headcanon, it's just a useful cuddle against anyone that'd try to criticize what they do.

>>2103172
seethe more retard

>>2103175
Nice try katieluka, didn't take your hrt today?

>>2103172
I remember when KR always had a highly random start to its 2WK and I loved that. It struck a good balance since the conflict over the French territories held by Germany always happens sometime close to autumn 1939 but the fact that it COULD happen in 1937 and that it COULD involve very different alliances made every game all that more exciting. I also doubt that these people even know what realism is. Realism is always what happened in our timeline. Well guess what? Much of what happened in our timeline would make sense if Germany won either world war, China was fragmented, the USSR didn't exist and so on. C'mon, let's see some creativity!

>>2103180
It can still happen with Belgium/Switzerland shenanigans

>>2103179
What the fuck am I looking at?

>>2103184
One of the current top kaiserreich devs, or rather their reddit posts.

>>2103181
I guess that's still true but it really feels downscaled compared to older KR. Most games started to feel samey and that really hurt the replay value. Eventually I just moved on to other things.

>>2103185
>One of the top KR devs is someone that gets bathtub estrogen and hangs around in communities where they peddle it to the underaged
Well OK then, guess that answers a lot of my questions about the direction of KR.

TFR is retiring, we do not have the manpower to finish 1.1, thank you for everything.

>>2103084
Your choice of supermutants. Shale's army "hard" path is fun.

Hey everyone,

After careful thought, we’ve made the decision to officially give TFR to Czar. Over the past months, it’s become clear that both community engagement and our own drive to continue development have tapered off. Despite our efforts, the overall enjoyment among players wasn’t where we had hoped, and forcing things forward wouldn’t feel fair to anyone involved.

We want to specifically thank all of our devs for their work here—their contributions really shaped the project’s aesthetic and vision. TFR wouldn’t have gotten as far as it did without their input.

The current Triumvirate, and some devs, will be gone, and Czarist exiles, and the MENA team, will return to replace them.

Thanks again to everyone who played, gave feedback, and helped shape the project. We’re looking ahead to new things, hopefully with fresh energy and shared enthusiasm. Czar's vision for the mod will save it from it's deep hole.

-TFR Triumvirate

>>2103260
TFRetards, how did you fuck up this terribly?

>>2103260

Czarists will take back TFR.

How many days of spam and namefagging has it been now?

Day ten since they started shitting up the TNO thread.
Day three or four since the anti-TFR namefagging campaign.

Hard to tell if these are related but it's some of the most pathetic shit ever. Imagine spending several hours a day namefagging on a low traffic board while telling yourself that you're a master troll.

>>2103272
You are retarded and cannot help to accept nobody wants to play your shitty mod.

it's a false flag by a czarist retard

>>2103298
And they've been going at it for ten days straight.
I think it's bigger than just that though. They've always been the worst people in the entire HOI4 community. They've only just gotten more brazen about it recently.

>>2103299
No, it started with a TNO dev having a mental breakdown in their containment thread. It's possible that the two incidents are unrelated however and that people only blame TNO because the first incident was caused by them. I don't know, it's hard to tell.

>>2103512
>playing in africa
That was your first mistake. Why would anyone pick that as their first path in the mod? Are you retarded?

>>2103526
They looked cool and I like playing as nations that start out small but grow big overtime instead of being big from the start. What's a good starting nation for Red Flood?

>>2103526
It's a fair assumption that any competent mod wouldn't add shit like that in the first place no matter where you are. Nothing wrong with playing a minor country on your first go either, I think. If you're just getting accustomed to a new setting a slow start is a perfectly viable choice.

>>2103512
Retard there is literally an event at the start saying that it's old content and shit.
All the paths for them do nothing

>>2103544
>there is literally an event at the start saying that it's old content and shit.

>All the paths for them do nothing
Gay, now what's a good starting nation?

>>2103528
>I like playing as nations that start out small but grow big overtime
>What's a good starting nation for Red Flood?
Play Kavkaz

>>2103536
Tuaregs are very obviously a meme nation from the very original release. If you think it would be a fun experience to play for a minor nation, then I can only call you dumb.

>>2103549
Kavkas, poland, ukraine, france, germany and zheltorossyia are very good. (Nice submod for zhel https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3458299600)
Italy, churchills india and kazan are good if you can tolerate older style of hoi4 modding.
Finland, belarus and bulgaria are good but start and end as small powers
Avoid fiume like the plague

>>2103549
I like Churchill's India. Good pick if you want a unique experience in a small tag that doesn't get heavily involved in WW2.

>>2103528
play Cossack host in Central Asia.

>>2103581
For me, it is Libertarian Theology, I love religious socialism and anarcho monarchism.

>>2103585
Most free image software let's you edit these things. One anon suggested GIMP which is good. Another is Paint.NET. That one also let's you resize image with limited loss of quality and then save it in a file format of your choice with a compression level that you can pick if applicable.

I know some of the stuff on here is planned and has been teased, but that was all announced before this appeared. Could just be a fake made by someone who's been closely following the mod.

I don't like this. I find some of the design choices odd. Like a random black activist being a maoist for no reason? Liberation Theology being authsoc?
The events are also very boring. They're two short and uninteresting and both follow a similar structure. I suspect AI but I'm not entirely sure. The Radical Democracy description is definitely AI though.
>>2103661
Why is Gonzalo Thought a subideology when Maoism explicitely mentions him as the basis for the ideology?

>>2103696
Most likely a Sub-subideology, still being maoism under the hood.

>>2103722
Still it's redundant since Maoism is already Gonzalo Thought.

>>2103727
But tons of subideologies are like that. That's the point.

Fucked up my prerequisites to getting the Left Accelerationists so I decided to win the Z war.
It was a pretty fun run all in all. I didn't know you actually CAN form the EU without going bug-eater, I'm glad you can. We can call this the good ending, despite me nuking St. Petersburg and Moscow and China nuking Japan.
Read some advice about making divisions and it became way way easier to rape ass once I got it, but God DAMN is supply even MORE of a killer in this mod. Pretty buggy too, I crashed a few times and some of the mechanics seemingly didn't work as they should have.
Nothing Ever Happens, History has ended. The event was pretty good too.

there's also Identitarian ethnonationalist EU for post-Soviet defeat France, they get cores everywhere in Europe

I see them answering questions, lead ENG dev confirmed the Southern Struggle mechanic applies only to the RR. Other Southern civil war factions don't get it. Also apparently the BLA in game is anti-socialist so don't expect any left leaning paths for them, would explain some of the RR paths.

>>2104733
Look at the proportion of questions asked and questions answered.
Also scroll up. I understand them ignoring the "will x have content" questions because they're retarded, but the rest are usually actual genuine questions that never got answered.

>>2104733
nayrt but I like that split between the BLA and RR. Keep the two extremes within the niche on either side and let either shine.

>>2104733
So there's a non zero chance we get kanye in the BLA

>>2104758
NatSoc Kanye would be so based.

>>2104758
The BLA has a leader with the Esoteric Nazism ideology in the files, so they may get a bit weird.

>>2104771
EsoNatSoc, he is possessed by the spirit of Hitler (PBUH)

>>2104775
Even better. Though since their Wiki has an EsoNaz listed, maybe he should just be classical National Socialism since he's the reincarnation of Hitler?

>>2104673
>Identitarian ethnonationalist EU for post-Soviet defeat France, they get cores everywhere in Europe
I only managed to get Italy+France+Iberia cored as Camus. Even after the 3rd European War after I conquered Germany. It also released all of Germany's subjects as puppets. I wonder if that was just a bug.

>>2104783
Pretty sure that's a bug, I remember absorbing Germany before the 2EW. I don't think Camus is supposed to get a 3EW.

>>2104785
Yeah Germany just declared war on the Soviets super early and I was dragged in. There was a focus tree that mentioned 'dealing with Germany' talking about how they have the wrong person in power but nothing happened after I did it.

>>2104783
When I played I got the 3EW (no uniquqe super sadly) and annexed all of the pakt of steel and got wargoals through decisions to get rid of the countries that weren't in the 3EW.
You didn't annex your puppets in anatolia/the levant so I just cheated to annex them for larp

How the hell is this a real post? I'd ask why the hell someone would post this but I guess you already answered it.
baka TNO absorbing all drama really made people go soft on other villains.

Whats with HOI4 mods always having real life people as rulers? Sure, if its set 20 or 30 years after it, I can understand, but you have people making mods where history changed 100 years ago and they still have shit like Donald Trump as a monarch or some literal who that has the same beliefs as IRL. Why not have some people be made up?

>>2104910
>Kind of thing you look at and immediately know it was posted by a delusional troon
This, but with loji gooners.

>>2104940
Because then you'd be hating on their shitty oc donut steels instead.
I think Red Flood does a good job at the kind of thing you want. Often total nobodies that only make sense in their setting. TFR also does an ok job with OCs I think: sparingly, and more to embody an idea than anything else.

You're not wrong though. There's definitely a time and place for OCs. I think that 1984 mod would've been a good fit for it instead of what we got.

>>2104940
>Why not have some people be made up?
Because it's cringe and gay and has never worked. Hoi4 is mostly a political game set on earth and by adding OC's you destroy it's believability and set it into fantasy land that has nothing incommon with the real world whereas most mods are not alternative universes but different timelines of real world that still exist in the same universe

>>2104940
EAW and OWB do this a lot and usually pretty well. Though ymmv with some of it.

>>2104940
Führerreich did this, and people never gave a shit about the mod. And it eventually died.

>>2104946
Sorry chink but the ai will be colonized

So my red flood is crashing on startup. No submods. Tried reverting to an earlier 1.16 build. Also tried resubscribing. Nothing. Any idea how to fix this?

>>2105018
Verify file integrity in Steam. That usually fixes these things. As simple as it sounds, rebooting your computer is also something worth trying. These tend to solve most problems when the game crashes on startup for (you) and no one else seems to have the issue.

>>2105040
Thanks. Manually deleting the mod and the descriptor and reinstalling worked.

>>2105050
Descriptor issues used to be a very common issue when the new launcher was released several years ago. You'd think that Paradox would've solved that by now. Cheers on getting it running, mate.

Actually, I think there's six factions. These Larpagans here being one of the secret paths, the only time it may have been teased in the past was a portrait they released.

>>2105465 (Me)
Pic is the portrait I was referring to.

>>2105469 (Me again)
There's also this portrait they teased a while back, could be related to the secret far left Cascadia faction.

>>2105469
Getting eso naz vikings with some sort of skitz anarchists on top of the other kino will probably make cascadia the best tag for a long while

>>2105477
Yeah I'm hyped as fuck for Cascadia, high kino potential there. Without a doubt it's gonna be the first tag I play when 1.1 drops.

>>2105404
It's not a TNO dev. It's a Mexican retard named Cobblestone from TFR's MENA team before that shit got shut down along with Czar. He's got a grudge against Otto for whatever reason. I get that the TNO janny was shitting up the last HOI4 and TNO threads but these spammers are unrelated. They just happened to shit up threads around the same time.
By all means, do continue to hate the TNO devs but they don't deserve to get lumped in with this. They're self destructing in their own way.

>>2105465
i could take on them all at the same time

Apparently nu-TNO devs are going to rework (shocking) the Russian Reunification wars by removing the wars (even more shocking)

"Russian reunification by wars is unrealistic as the entirety of the region is still de jure under the Soviet Union. The various warlords on the map are just gameplay representation of separatists and rebellions. Russian reunification as a concept is unnecessary as the Soviet Union is already presented as a single entity on the world map. The nee Soviet Times of Troubles mechanic will give each rebel and separatist factions decisions to spread their influence to usurp the Soviet government. Conflicts are still present for more chauvinistic groups such as the AB, but instead of declaring wars this will be done by spending infantry equipment and other military equipments (tanks and support) in a Vic3 style minimap to take over neighbouring provinces and states."

Insurrectionary anarchists are likely the 5th path due to the fact that the symbolism in their background uses the same symbolism they'd use and the cascadia teaser mentioned anarchists a good bunch of times.
>>2105469
>>2105471
Im not sure how relevant paganism is in the PNW but i also wouldn't mind them being a proper path since it seems cascadia is kinda like komi with its diverse range of radical paths

Damn, how many factions and battles can one state have? Washington alone seems to have had more battles than the rest of the US during the 2ACW

>>2105968
The south seems to be biggest shitshow in america so I'd say alabama would see the most fighting of any state overall.

>>2105968
The PNW is likely one of the most violent regions during the civil war aside from the south

>>2105968
California is an utter shitshow.

>>2106011
>>2106020
What's going on in those states? Surely not 6+ far right and far left groups (not counting the legally sanctioned forces, like the police and the military) duking it out for the territory.

>>2105968
Those are all different paths for Cascadia, not different civil war factions fighting.

>>2106118
I thought those factions existed regardless of your actions, and the battles in question happened in fluff but not in gameplay.

>>2106124
>I thought those factions existed regardless of your actions
They do, but they're all part of Cascadia. They're not fighting each other at all (presumably).
>the battles in question happened in fluff but not in gameplay.
It's fluff for those OCs/stand ins. But I mean a lot of those battles will naturally occur as you reunify Washington.

>>2106128
>They're not fighting each other at all
Eh, I don't see the fascists (in any flavor) and antifa just sharing Washington in relative peace while the 2ACW rages elsewhere.

>>2106141
I mean there's gonna be some internal conflict, probably some assassinations/purges. But I don't see full on war between the factions occurring.

>>2106128
>>2106143
Maybe to get the Vinland/Occultist guys you need a civil war like in patriot front.

Infiltrating communities always starts like this. You force a catchy meme to get people to ironically get hooked on and you keep on pushing it with growing aggression, until people won't be able to distinguish irony from actually supporting it. This not different from how faggots, pedophiles or realismfags manage to infiltrate and subvert communities.

>>2106648
Yeah I bet I wouldn't get along with him and he probably has issues behind the meme but at least he seems refreshingly human and like he actually believes in what he says.

Yep, NATOwave started as TNO OFN memes. It then spread to NAFO communities which resulting in unironic NATOwave "memes"

>>2106683
I prefer ironic NATOwave myself.

Would be cool if the European War could end with Europe getting turned into a nuclear wasteland, I know it's already possible for nukes to be used in the second one. But still an outcome where both sides get BTFO would be cool (I guess you could consider Catharsis to be that, but Russia loses way less than Europe in that scenario imqho).

2WRW (or Requiem after the rebranding) did that for Omsk. If the war with Germany goes on for two long they can just ragequit and glasses most of central and eastern Europe to end the war. Everything between Poland and the Urals becomes a wasteland in that exchange.

Really? How? Is it via a decision or something? Because I was having fun as them raiding the people around me but that mini game just kinda sucked the fun out of everything.

>>2106706
If you mean that Gauntlet or whatever it's called then yes just take a decision to skip it and you auto complete it. Wish more of TNO's shit had that.

>>2106695
On 2WRW, why have they not changed the name to Requiem on the workshop yet?

>>2106712
Don't know but if I were to guess whoever handles the Steam page got busy or something stupid like that. Wouldn't really care if it wasn't for the fact that the patch is supposed to break save games.

>>2106710
Yeah it was the Gauntlet, I didn't see a decision to skip it but maybe I just missed it. I'll definitely give them another go if you really can skip that mini game.

>>2106716
They added it in the first hotfix. Everyone hated it even though they'd made it easier than the original. The tag lead announced on day one that they were going to add a skip button. So kudos on them for listening to the fans. Now if only they'd remove the Madagascar minigame and turn it into a regular proxy war like in the old days...

I'm very much in favour of 2WK railroading. Having it be more dynamic sounds good on paper but in practice it leads to quick, imbalanced wars that are a complete stomp for one side. The mod already has problems as it is. Ideally, every country in the world would be railroaded into joining the 2WK at a second date so that it doesn't end up as an underwhelming 1 year affair entirely localised in Europe like normal.

>>2106614
Shut up you joyless fucking faggot. Go back to bitching about TNO for the 4th year in a row, even that is less obnoxious than this.

I wish Omsk had a minigame for managing your labour force or something (maybe something like Burgundy). Right now it's super boring just waiting around doing nothing in between the wars. Having an economic minigame to tweak with in the background that makes your wars easier if you're good at it would do a lot to break up the tedium.

>>2106810

You're the newfag. That's Natalia Poklonskaya, one of the early faces of the Russo-Ukrainian conflict that got a modest amount of fame in 2014 for her involvement in the Russian takeover of Crimea. Not only is that art not random, it's completely on-topic for a thread that in part discusses a mod where this conflict plays out. And it's probably older than you on top of that.

>The association between John F. Kennedy (JFK) and Camelot originated from Jacqueline Kennedy's efforts to shape her husband's legacy following his assassination in 1963. She linked his presidency to the legendary court of King Arthur, a symbol of idealism, chivalry, and noble leadership, by referencing the Broadway musical Camelot.

It's part of JFK's post-assassination legacy apparently, so the ideology must simply be a reference to the Kennedys as a political dynasty.

He currently has no ideology in the ACG bug since the requirements list not going authoritarian/hard right it's likely intended to be something similar.

A progressive MAGA path in general would be neat. You could have Gabbard as a candidate too, and it's probably the only way you could ever justify giving a bigger role to the MAGA communist faction.

It's certainly a good mod but it needs some more work.
I hope the America update gives every faction proper localization. Also maybe some more unique interactions between states.
Maybe Patriot Front/NSM/Atomwaffen can give guns to Cascadia against the APLA?

>>2107348
Different focus tree, your way of handling all conquered European lands are different and the collapse is actually avoidable and just an added challenge. So you can't even get the most basic facts right in your attempts to stir shit.

>>2107351
Different modifiers, sure.
But what do you do that's really different? At the end it's the same: final war with Russia and then waiting for the collapse.
It's good but it just isn't very different.

>>2107352
This is retarded. It's like saying that all different leaders in a tag are the same just because in the end you fight the same big war like the 2WK in Kaiserreich. I can make anything seem bad if I'm that reductive to the point where a different focus tree, tone and post-war end state "don't count" for whatever arbitrary reason you've made up in your head.

>>2107362
>same borders (plus a little bit of russia)
>same final war
>OP modifiers with a different coat of paint
You don't do anything you don't do in the other EU paths besides have the collapse at the end.
The events are good, the theme is interesting, but it's simply too similar to the other paths.
They could've done something cool (maybe with the UN since the WEF is very well-connected to them) but they didn't.
I'm not saying TFR is a shit mod or the path is shit, it's just not that different.

>>2107364
NTA but it really is a ''different coat of paint on the same car'' i think the devs kinda put themselves in a hard spot because of the amount of variables so having something radically different might break something or the idea that the 2EW ''HAS TO HAPPEN'' no matter what also makes it feel samey
>>2107331
Pretty sure its not AI but whoever wrote the events didn't bring their A-game, TFR writing flipflops alot, i did hear they've been undoing the usage of AI in their writing

>>2107369
Aren't they adding another ending to the first EW? I saw that somewhere in this thread. I don't know if the image is legitimate though.

>>2107331
>>2107333
I don't think it's AI. AI tends to be stiff and overly general, but this is awkward simply because of a poor sense of grammar, flow, and style. It's very ESL. You can see similar (and much worse) examples in game, especially regarding comma abuse. He's at least getting better, but they should just get a WASP fan-fiction writer or something to do it instead cause as it is it's pretty embarrassing and really disconnects you from your larp.

>>2107370
Im not sure if its a real image but i don't hate the idea of a stalemate in the 1EW that unlocks moderate and radical paths for both sides because then you'd have really interesting matchups

>>2107374
It would be great to see the first EW be a bit more dynamic.
Maybe an event chain deciding what parts of Europe go to who?

>>2107364
You're just a disingenuous idiot that ignores the majority of what's being written and refuses to account for things like different focus trees, narrative structures and additional end-game challenges. Just awful.

your schizo babble is funny but it doesn't mean anything
the focus tree is the same as the other EU paths with different OP modifiers to steamroll Russia with
there are no unique wars
there are no unique mechanics
It's 90% the same thing

worshipping the developers and acting as if they can do no wrong is how we ended up with modern TNO

>>2107351
>Different focus tree
Most of the focused are the same
>your way of handling all conquered European lands are different
What the fuck does that even mean in gameplay sense? I guess it means that you get more land which is literally a single line of code (transfer state) and you make it out to be something more
>>2107362
>This is retarded. It's like saying that all different leaders in a tag are the same just because in the end you fight the same big war like the 2WK in Kaiserreich
Kaiserreich is more sandboxy and allows for different scenarios like early weltkrieg, all your allies collapsing and whatnot. In TFR you sit in a cuck chair and watch as germany eats europe before attacking you. There are no geopolitical dynamics because it's all predetermined.
>different focus tree, tone and post-war end state "
Focus tree that doesn't have any effects besides a modifier and 5 factories doesn't change much. The "tone" is smoke and mirrors that can't be objectively measured. Post war end states don't exist for most of the paths and they're just cosmetic changes like another name or a flag which doesn't change the core gameplay experience

>>2107391
But everyone hates the nudevs. They just don't care.

>>2107392
>Kaiserreich is more sandboxy
kaiserreich very much took a while to get to that point
TFR in it's current state is in open beta.
It was a good idea overall to release and open the gates to wider recruitment.

I hope the Jannies create an containment thread for TFR fags preventing them from just shitting up the thread. Same fate that TNO fags had.

It get's old real fast and annoying when all the thread is only about TFR.

>>2107399
What would the hoi4 threads even be about in that case? Fucking Kaiserreich? Whoops, can't discuss one of the other major mods because of a general rule!

>>2107399
TNO gets a containment thread because it's not a strategy game after they deleted all gameplay and the only thing people talk about is drama and retarded reworks.
TFR will not get a containment thread because it plays like a strategy game and is the most popular HOI4 men d right now.

Please stop reposting this request you butthurt faggots.

>>2107399
Come on the, tell us what mod you want to discuss. Because someone is guaranteed to want to discuss that mod. Is it EaW? Rise of Russia? Bikini Bottom mod?

>>2107407
This one, of course.

>>2107399
Initially I was mad at TFR anons for monopolizing the modding thread, but in the end I realized that the modding scene has gotten stale and there barely is any mod to discuss. TNO and its consequences have been a disaster for this game's modding community, and TNO's progressive self destruction ended up affecting other mods as well. Many of the mods that were popular a bunch of years ago are either dead, irrelevant or in dev hell, until TFR showed up the total overhaul modding scene was entirely carried and maintained alive by KR/KX, EAW and the rotting corpse of TNO.
All things considered, I have to kneel and thank TFR devs and players for saving HOI4 modding.

>tranime
Where? In some focuses in the Japan tree? It fits, they're meant to be cultural ambassadors of some sort and it has been done by the actual country IRL several times.

>slow progress, lack of good updates
Mods much bigger and much older than TFR are also guilty of this. See KR and EaW.
I'm not using TNO for examples as "slow progress" implies any progress is being made, and "lack of good updates" implies any updates, let alone good, have been done.

Ignore him, he has been whining about anime in TFR for months now.

>>2107463
I've seen posts with EAW screenshots and content getting deleted by jannies within a few hours, I don't know of this is still the case, but it happened a lot before the 4chan hack. Then the hackers published a full list of janitors and mods, and I noticed that one of /vst/ jannies also was a /mlp/ janny.
I suspect he was the faggot deleting EAW posts here in this board to force anons to post on the pony one.

>>2107391
The devs created an echo chamber for themselves where nobody could criticize them, and any time someone tried they got banned. All the dev worship was manufactured.

>>2107463
MLP content is prohibited outside of /mlp/. EaW gets mentioned here and there, but you can't post images and getting too deep into it risks breaching rules. That's why.

>>2107476
Fucking why? It's just in a few focus icons and Loji anime girl is mostly a fan creation.

>>2107350
>Maybe Patriot Front/NSM/Atomwaffen can give guns to Cascadia against the APLA?
You can actually already do that, after the National Front forms you're able to supply any of the far right civil war factions with gear if they're still alive.

>>2107484
The entirety of the modern internet is an echo chamber. Unless you actively use multiple places for discussions.

>>2107489
>It's just in a few focus icons
And it's in a place where it actually makes sense, not just randomly.

>>2107530
TNO is a special case though because they've created a place for themselves where they've infamounsly banned most criticism and just talk among each other in their insulated lead dev chats. That's how you end up in a situation where all leads think deleting all African content is amazing while most of the community - even their own before the jannies swept it up - have been overwhelmingly negative. The TNO lead dev echo chamber has so many layers of protection against any form of disagreement that it makes a a Bluesky tard with half the planet on their block list look open by comparison.

>>2107530
Outside of shitholes like resetera and somethingawful, I don't think I've seen a stronger echo chamber than TNO's subreddit and discord server.

>>2107549
Even Something Awful is way better. At least they had something of an actual culture of discourse there for a while before Lowtax (RIP in power) fucked it all up.

>>2107549
I've just learned today that aside from being pretty much dead (less than 300 updoots in the latest rework announcement), the subreddit is actively seething at r/hoi4memes shitting on TNO on a daily basis, and I thought that was peak comedy.

>>2107549
Any echochamber is bad.

I hope 1.0.8 focuses on overhauling Germany's far right and far left content. Currently France mogs it hard in both categories (which is understandable given they got an entire update dedicated to overhauling them).

>>2107613
>have they announced what 1.0.8 will be about?
Nah, I don't think they've said or teased anything in relation to it yet. We just know it's going to be the next update and not 1.1, wonder if we're gonna get a 1.0.9 update as well or if this is the last medium update before 1.1 drops.

NTA, but there is also the debug mascot, a dancing one in the special forces doctrine tab, and a face on the frame of the first spy in the intelligence agency. The debug obviously doesn't matter, but I find the latter two off-putting. I'm assuming they're placeholders (for what though?) and they really shouldn't stay

>>2107646
>a face on the frame of the first spy in the intelligence agency
99% sure that's a bug because she's also the debug mascot and technically the mascot of the mod.

>>2107601
I hope all upcoming updates focus on filling in missing text and placeholders before beginning to overhaul >>2107610
anything

>>2107634
Very, yes. Both of those rely on poorly explained and poorly understood mechanics relating to naval or aerial superiority.

"But I have 100% naval AND aerial superiority in every tile I need to naval invade/paradrop! And in every tile between the launching base and destination too! And the invasion/paradrop doesn't trigger!", you say? It's because Venus was most likely in the house of Sagittarius.
You have to grab a tarot deck, and make sure the first three draws are the Priestess, the Tower (upside down) and the Wheel of Fortune. Otherwise, the operation will not launch.

>>2107650
>I hope all upcoming updates focus on filling in missing text
They add LOC and additional events with every update.
>placeholders
If you're referring to gfx they also pretty it up in every update, the only thing I can think of that hasn't been touched is the special forces doctrine tab which is still empty with just that one girl from Lucky Star dancing.

>>2107652
Yeah, I figured, I just don't like work starting on redoing anything before the first iteration is properly finished. That risks it never being realized. A lot of the old TNO content that's disliked for being bad and broken was just obviously unfinished and now I've a distaste for what they did to it. And actually there are a bunch of things with placeholder text, I think I saw more of that than placeholder graphics

>>2107661
I think there is, but the path is really unfinished right now. There's a reason you can only get it by messing with the game rules.

>>2107662
>Second Falklan War
Requires South America content, and TFR is years away from that. Would be kino, but there really are more interesting places to do first IMO.

>>2107666
Well the idea is it'd just be skeleton content for the AI, and Argentina would only do it if the UK lost the first European War.

>>2107658
This is so based.

>>2107646
Its TFR's mascot, im guessing its the one with the text ''fix your shit'' which indeed is a placeholder for the latter two

>>2107622
I’ve nothing against the monarchy per se, but they really ought to have chosen someone else. All these events and paths about a more assertive kingdom under Charles is pure fantasy, straight out of a Tolkien novel; especially considering what a spineless muppet he is in real life.

Maybe Charles has his own Wormtongue?

>>2107662
>Falklan War
How would you go about it? Those islands can be like four provinces max

>>2107703
I guess it'd be like the Taiwan War, if Argentina successfully takes the island they win the war but if the UK manages to keep them off the island long enough Argentina will white peace. I'd also restrict the war to only happening if Europe loses the first European War.

>>2107712
And the outcomes? I would have it as so:
If Milei fucks his reforms he can pull the ol'reliable and invade the islands for a chance to keep his presidency or give rise to some schizos if he loses. If he seccsseded in his reforms it would grant really good bonuses if he wins, with even a loss allowing him to keep the presidency or get some moderate opposition in charge.

and also give me Charles III hanging republicans from lamp posts all along the Mall and setting fire to 10 Downing Street, and top it off with an event where he's overlooking the carnage from Buckingham Palace with a psychotic glint in his eye as he goes full gamer sicko mode

>>2107720
Basically what you said, the only issue is this doesn't account for other South American wars that could radicalize Argentina. Also the UK explodes into a civil war when Europe loses the first European War so I'm not sure if the war should occur before or after the civil war. Maybe it'd be changed so if the UK wins the Falkland War the civil war doesn't happen and they don't unlock some of the more extreme extremist paths. However if the UK loses the war the civil war occurs and you unlock their most far right/left leaning paths.

Probably never going to happen, but if we ever get post-Catharsis content it'd be cool if an AWD cell appeared in the general German area. Early on in a Germany playthrough you get an event about a rumored AWD cell being in the country but I don't think they elaborate on it.

>>2107726
Based take. These people are retarded.
>Noooo everyone always have to behave exactly like in real life
Eat shit. Keep it plausible but honestly a lot of the best HOI4 content is speculative and takes a few liberties. And I'd rather have that than say TNO Mexico which just copies OTL content.
>Oh so u just want me OCs
Preemptive no and fuck off to the TNO fag writing that, you know that's not what I meant.

>>2107728
>this doesn't account for other South American wars that could radicalize Argentina
The losers in the 2023 Argentine presidential elections did have some influencers calling for civil war. Maybe that war ended up happening in TFR.
There's a problem in that civil war, however. If Milei wins, he'd strengthen the military, but wouldn't want to invade anything. The other side, the Peronists, would want to invade, but they hate the military.

With the recent pledge to remove all African content in TNO, this statement by this arch-TNO devnigger really should be a warning to everyone. Let someone with a TNO dev mentality come anywhere near a mod and they'll destroy anything people ever cared about with glee.

>>2107782
>I'd remove the war that makes the rest of the wars in the mod possible
He's joking, right?

>>2107835
No, it seems like TNO is finally becoming what it was always meant to be: a visual novel.

>>2107835
That's what TNO did, remember? They started a rework that saw the war that was meant to remove all subsequent events, the German Civil War. With time this led to most tags in the mod being reworked either as a direct result of this, or because the tone in general was shifting thanks to all these reworks. So if the TNO devnigger got his wish he'd delete the 2ACW and replace it with a moralizing J6 minigame and turn Europe and Asia into skeletons because now the EW and invasion of Taiwan can't happen.

>>2107782
>>2107846
And they replaced the plot-critical GCW with what? They have to make up for it somehow.

>>2107850
>Replaced it with what
Nothing yet. It's all still WIP. So the entire lore of the mod lives in a limbo and has for years with new tags adapting to a reworks that isn't released yet.

>>2107835
They want to remove the GCW despite it being the only reason why the RKs revolt and why Ruzzia's remnants stop getting bombed for long enough to start forming into actual states.
Are you really surprised?
>>2107850
I think it's Goebbels declaring himself the next Fuhrer, everyone ganging up on him and the influence games to see who becomes the REAL Fuhrer. No real war. Doesn't really explain how a paralyzed govt would prevent local autonomous units near the borders from enforcing order in the same way a CIVIL WAR does, but it's le realistic or some shit.

Some interesting posts there. An anon pointed out the following about posts with people saying DV wouldn't be integrated and the users in the screenshots saying it wouldn't be:

>Voyteck: Former member, wasn't in the team when integration was announced
>GOP-PIC: Former member, wasn't in the team when integration was announced
So the TNO leads, knowing that DV would be completely hated, might have lied to their staff up until just a month or two ago. Really makes you think.
This one will be downright prophetic too: https://www.reddit.com/r/HOI4memes/comments/1mcm6lx/you_will_read_ze_events_and_be_happy/

Some comments in the second link are pretty telling too. It really doesn't seem like a happy community at all with how polarized even they are.

>>2108180
if they were to actually commit to realism, there is absolutely no way Himmler would get to power
SS weren't as elite soldiers as the media would have you believe, they were actually really pathetic. Their combat effectiveness was on par with volkssturm units, when they were fighting actual soldiers instead of civilians.
>>2108215
Yea Goering is also very likely. I don't really think anyone else in Hitler's inner circle would have a chance. For Speer to come to power, there would have to be a miracle where everyone else dies.

What if Hitler completely loses it before his death and, considering the Reich is in a state of relative peace and stability, instead of appointing someone with a military or propaganda background as Fuhrer he gives the role to, of all people, Eva Braun?

No, because as >>2108839 said he's Reddit Incarnate and Redditors love creating moronic maps like that with a thousand Balkanized, artificial statelets that'd collapse within seconds and don't make sense anywhere outside of a casual HOI4 game.

I LOVE WARLORDS!

Maybe I am missing context but in the fire rises why do I need to go Presidential Russia instead of Fascist Russia to get the Tsars? Isn't that a little weird? I'm not saying it wouldn't be possible for Reformer Nationalists to want a Tsar but surely the more extreme Nationalists should have the option to bring back the literal symbol of Traditional Russia?

>>2108849
Yeah no these are the same people that think that the second you remove Putin/Xi then everything will be a harmonious pride parade spanning from Guangxi to Sakha (50+ liberal countries now).

>>2108854
https://thefireriseswiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Russian_Federation/LDPR
There's a Wiki for this, you know. Elect LDPR and work your way from there for the various Tsarist options. Every candidate has a tl;dr instruction on how to get him.

>>2108856
Trying to explain to people (Gunther types) that the Communists and Nationalists are more popular then the Liberals in Russia is like telling someone the tooth fairy is not real. That is of course assuming that United Russia is taken out of the running with Putin gone which is not what would happen.

>>2108857
Thank you for the guide, I will follow it to get the SMO Veteran Tsar. Still though
>The Reformists include monarchists and ultraconservatives
Is this not a bit unusual for the restoration of the Tsar to be locked behind the less extreme faction? Again, maybe I am missing some context on that particular Russian political sphere but it does not exactly track that the Presidential Dictatorship path leads to a monarchy whilst the Fascist path does not. It just seems like the Hawk path is aesthetically more in line with a restoration of the Emperor along with it's more extreme nationalism.

>TNO devs take over TFR

>It gets replaced with a GUI about applying sanctions to make the government collapse
>Winning the mini game ends with everyone embracing neoliberalism
It's funny because TFR does end up treating Fehlinger's shtick more realistically than actual Redditors would. Because the only way any of this could work is if you just roll up tanks into Moscow and Beijing, destroy the entire state apparatuses of Russia and China, and then force everyone at gunpoint to go along with the new agenda. And even then you'd have a resistance against it that'd make anything in WW2 seem timid.

>>2108861
You'd have to ask the devs about that or play it yourself, I've never played that route myself so I can't help you out.

>>2108864
They have a few centrists if you go all-in on doing a nationalistic democracy. I like the breadth of options myself. It's nice to have something besides an evil fascist to smash the commies with, you know?

And that's assuming Putin and Xi let them in instead of forcing a cataclysmic nuclear war that'd make anything in Fallout seem timid.

Total nuclear destructive capability has drastically decreased over time. You wouldn't even get irl cold war gone hot levels of destruction, let alone actual Fallout-tier apocalypse.

>>2108829
OK, here's how balkanized Russia can work.
You make up those 41 states, right? But you bind them under an accord, which we'll arbitrarily call the "Belovezha Accord", which says those states can only belong to an organization we'll arbitrarily call the "Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)" and no other (like NATO or the UN or the EU or etc). Those states, if they find themselves unable to maintain sovereignty, will automatically become part of an unified country.
We'll call this unified country, I don't know, "Russia"?

>>2109016
True, if you want it to be realistic they'd sooner fling nukes at Fehlinger than let him hold military-enforced pride parades in Moscow and Beijing.

>>2108946
I want an omsk-expy path, preferably post 2ew loss. Maybe kinda like Atomwaffen, where you collect nukes while everyone declares on you. Why do we need the world if there is no Russia in it type of deal.

Does the Russian Imperial Movement ever get mentioned asides from one AWD focus?

>>2108835
The real reason why it wouldn't work is that most of these republics are pro-Russian.

>>2108854
Dont you know anything about Russian politics? United Russia is literally working with the monarchists and nationalists.
LDPR is about imperial restoration but they are still republicans.

>>2109082
Real reason it doesn't work is that 90% of them don't have any identity. Those divisions aren't even geographic, let alone ethnic-they are arbitrary lines on the map
Not saying it should be removed-Gunther is soul. I am a bit iffy on the conquring Russia completely and invading china, but whatever.
>>2109027
Realistically nukes definitely get flung after 2ew and probably after 1ew, especially on certain paths. And I don't mean a few cities get nukes, I am talking regions and countries becoming uninhabitable.
>>2108854
Because the reformer path allows for more groups to take power

It's "orientalist".

>>2109748
Not particularly. It's just that the non-CW Equestria hasn't seen an update in more or less forever.

>>2109748
It did quite some time ago in 2021 and since then it has been slowly declining. Spergout they had at Baron for actually doing great with Sirens and Equestrian rework was the culmination of that.

What mod isn't declining? KR is going the TNO route, KX is bloatmaxx and adding even more bloat, EaW is slowly becoming a toozer mod, TFR's honeymoon is over and becoming a toozer mod, OWB is, presumably, doing things and TNO is TNO,

>>2109758
>Spergout they had at Baron for actually doing great with Sirens
I was going to play the Siren route soon. What happened?

>>2109759
>TFR's honeymoon is over and becoming a toozer mod
What are you talking about? We got that Dystopia update back in June.

>>2109763
Baron was doing the Equestrian rework, and presumably progressing nicely with the amount of teasers, the ideas were also interesting, like how Equestrian tree would be more reactive through loadable trees based on the threats to Equestria in the world. Then they kicked him off the team.

>>2109759
Hard disagree on TFR. They've put out some big updates including all of France and Schwab's EU.

KX didn't fit your definition of not adding content so you just decided it's not content but bloat, great fucking job nigger

>>2102998
>NOOO MUH MEME PATHS!!

>>2109784
Hey now there's nothing wrong with wanting different paths. There can definitely be a happy medium between TNO and KX that more mods should strive for.

>>2109786
You are clearly stupid if you think KX is too schizo, it literally doesn't go far enough. It is a tamer more much more mild version of Red Flood.

>>2109781
>>2109783
I'd like you to define your fucking "quality" then, or show where's this 5000000 paths with 6 focuses each. Especially with recent stuff.
Or are you gonna bring up other mods as form of defense like Red Flood where shit like their Poland update still has 90% broken pics in events despite coming out half a year ago

It hurts you fucking retards that all of your precious mods do fuck all while KX still exists and marches on. You are probs a tfretards or other sort of scum

When will KX finally release a German or Austrian rework ? In 2 years all they released was Ukraine, afghanistan and fucking Central asian shitholes, they even removed some godamn Russian paths
