Gran Strategist said: I know there was an issue a couple of months ago where carrier planes weren't working properly making them effectively useless but that was fixed and since then when I have carriers in my fleets they do significant damage.

are you sure?

guess I need to do some tests with the release vesion.  

Glad you worked it out @CBBox but please next time start a new thread rather than necro'ing an old one.  

MrReaper182 said: I've never once played vanilla HOI4 as I always play with mods such as the fallout mod, the WWW 1 mod, the Kisterrich mod or the Millennium dawn mod. So I'm just wondering how many other people have never played vanilla HOI4.

I've never played a hoi4 mod  

Moved to main forum for a wider audience. If the community agrees it's likely to be a bug, post in Bug Reports please.

So, my dreadn... Read more

You completely forgot about the Vatican State

Everyone knows the only divisions it has, are from within

Well after guessing Malta correctly a while back....

let's see...

I predict Ulm will get a NF tree  

Over 1% of the player base has this achievement, so we know it is gettable and not bugged.

I'll move you to the main forum for a wider audience of gameplay experts.

Apparently it is awaiting MS approval. Hopefully today!  

Gracz said: Will Albania get a unique focus tree?

Not in BBA, for now they only get annexation.  

Steel_Viking said: Does this mean tank refitting costs are fixed by this patch?

Not quite, we are still working on bringing this to you. still this gives you an early test of the new conversion system.  

BubblesZestje said: So wait does this mean the majority of people who choose the Polish Regency Council do it just to not get anyone as King? Seem to be missing a bit of infomation here.

this is something we are currently investigating  

Herr B. said: Interesting data, for sure.

However, I wouldn't read much into it. From the first graph alone (the difficulty), it is easy to see that a sizeable amount of data comes from inexperienced or occasional players, who have no idea of what's even going on. All of the data below that support this claim, especially the division design.

I would honestly prefer it, if you would filter out all data from "easy" or "very easy" campains. Then perhaps we could see how the hivemind has reacted to the NSB changes.

Hey folks! Please do not just post a screenshot of your game without giving context to what the issue is! It's much better if you post your issue in the bug forum where we can keep track of it!  

Ethereld said: Strategic Redeployment using railways is dreamlike. But what happens in areas with no trains or damaged railways? Will the pathfinding and speed work the same?

yes, there are separate speed calculations for both the current rail level and the current infrastructure level. The pathfinder will work out which is the fastest route based on both these speeds so if there are no railways between 2 points but there are varying levels of infrastructure it will still find the fastest path.  

Hello there C0RAX, here!

For my first HoI dev diary, I’m here to show you the second part of the Officer Corps, a new way of personalising your military that will be included as part of No Step Back and the Barbarossa update.

In the last dev diary we explained how we want to allow you to specialise your military branches with the leadership and advisors. Today we bring to you some new features that allow you to customise how your military operates, and act as a further use for the new sources of branch experience that were hinted at last week.

You may have been wondering what all those shiny boxes with emblems were for. I'm here to tell you they are the new Officer Corps Spirits.

Spirits are a new way to specialise your military, generals and even help your division designs. Each branch has multiple categories for its spirits that affect different aspects of the way they operate. Here I have shown you the spirits of th... Read more

Mousetick said: A DLC that requires a minimum patch level should not be activatable in the Launcher nor loadable by the executable if the version requirement is not met.

Thanks for reading.

Both Microsoft and Steam have options for turning off automatic updates! If you need help locating the setting, PM me and I will be happy to walk you through it
