A good OP, and that reddit post makes the game look REALLY promising. Wiz is making goons proud.

I don't see any demographic charts and tables in the steam screenshots, they better be in the game or else!

I agree with the posters who enjoyed Vicky 1 more than 2 despite 2 being much easier to play and aesthetically pleasing. I always assumed it was because I was in high school and had lower standards, but I think you guys are right that the insane jankiness of turning independent Texas into a 100M population super state or whatever made it more fun. 3 still looks very good and I will definitely excitedly play it. If it can make the internal politics a bit more interesting that'd be good. I'm curious how immigration is gonna end up - I kinda don't like the idea of making it more deterministic and hardcoded to big events like the famine, if only because attracting immigrants and moving your population around is one of the more fun bits of the era.

Wiz can you confirm we will still have graphs and charts monitoring population demographics like ideology (or interest groups), class, and ethnicity, etc?

Vasukhani posted:I definitly remember some warhammer 40k sized doom battles invading the UK has france in vick2. Like wiping out 2 million a 4 month battle. In Vicky 1, you could manually promote entire populations into soldiers, then make units from those soldier populations. You could use those specific units on suicide missions until you destroyed the entire population of a state or whatever.

Trains will be represented by populations of trains (PoTs) and modelled according to size, fuel type, hauling capacity, dietary preference, and ideology. The game will run at .001 ticks per second as every train's movement is modelled in real time. A year in game will take 6 months at max speed.

I figure that eventually more efficient forms of agricultural production will trickle down to the subsistence farmers and ensure that anyone with a bit of land is actually making some small surplus and selling to market - which could have some ripple effects and drag them into the broader economic system. Maybe then you get kulaks.

Dirk the Average posted:It can be hard to notice (because the process is very gradual), but you'll actually take little bites out of the territory as the bar ticks down. So your progress is literally measured by the amount of territory you have on the map. Ohhhhh okay! I guess for Argentina it's just very gradual. That or i made too many colonies or something. Thanks!

Any protips on how to attract immigrants from other nations? Is it really just standard of living that drives most of it?

AnEdgelord posted:Anything that gives a migration attraction seems to trigger something that makes it so a region can become a migration "target" for a specific nationality. I saw that happen a couple times with the gold rush events in North America. I was wondering what determined those things - do you just run good laws/high standard of living and they trigger after some time? Or is this scripted events we're talking about?

So I tried playing a few countries as tutorial nations - Japan, Argentina/Chile, Sweden, and Belgium. Belgium is DEFINITELY the best tutorial nation. The little Latin American countries just absolutely struggle for any sort of resource in the early days - it's not like in Vicky 2 where you can get a trickle of immigrants to get going. It takes far too long to get the resources to get the standard of living up to attract immigrants, and the base level expenses of bureaucracy can absolutely cripple tiny countries.

I've found the main thing I'm doing basically at all times and at breakneck speed, is leaving the market prices of goods open and just building more of whatever needs more to meet my industrial needs (usually coal/iron/tools early on). Is that the main thing you guys are doing? I did some diplomacy and built some military industry too, but that seemed to be my main focus.

As much as the internal politicking was advertised as important, and is modelled, does it actually do anything? I have been able to just reform governments freely and pass basically any laws I want with minimal consequences. Do elections do anything except change clout percentages a bit?

buglord posted:How do I figure out what my population needs in order to increase quality of life? So I did some runs as Argentina/Chile, here is what I learned: You are too poor to build things to be self sufficient. If you wanted to, you'd have to go to the goods/market tab and look at everything that is above "average" price (or anything that has more buy orders than sell orders), and build native industry or trade for it. With the construction industry you could afford it would take a century. A better strategy - join the British (or French) market. You'll suddenly be FLOODED with goods, and you can create advanced industries (engines, ships, electricity) to sell to an absolutely massive and growing market early. Your POPs will magically get all the poo poo from the UK or French market which is flooded with basic goods. You lose your autonomy to control some of those things, but really, the British are swimming with goodies so it doesn't matter. Then, apply greener grass to all your provinces and don't incorporate any territories. Cut taxes, abolish your military, and wait. As Argentina, I had more people than Brazil by 1860 from immmigration alone.

fuf posted:The way the economy ties into interest groups really is pretty clever and I think is what separates it from other "build a production line" games. The weakest part of the game is definitely that politics is basically useless and can be completely ignored 90% of the time. They really needed to bake the politics stuff a bit more, and completely rework how elections/parties/interest groups affect gameplay. Elections really should actually do something - maybe force the player to make the leading party in the governing coalition, change the head of state, force one law change, SOMETHING. As it stands you can have the same immortal head of state and governing coalition from game start to game end and not have any problems or impediments the entire time.
