Hello everyone! I’m Kuba, Release Engineer & Interim QA Coordinator here at Paradox Tinto and today I’d like to talk about issues that are affecting our community and further plan how to deal with them.

As you are aware, shortly after releasing the Domination DLC we realized we had some issues that affected some of our players, so we released a quick patch to alleviate those issues.
With every hotfix that we make for our game, we have to limit the changes to the most pressing issues that slipped the release build testing. We want to react quickly to the bugs but we also do not want to introduce more issues into your games, as with short development time, bugs like to sneak in.

That being said, we immediately focused on making a full patch that will address many of your issues.

For an upcoming patch, which will be released in early May, we focus primarily on:

• Stability: We are actively addressing the latest crashes that have been ...

Greetings everyone!

Today we released hotfix for 1.35.1 Ottomans addressing some issues that surfaced since the release of 1.35. Save games should hopefully be unaffected - but if you have the possibility to start a new game that is always recommended.

PLEASE NOTE THAT 1.34 SAVES WILL NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH 1.35! (More info here![forum.paradoxplaza.com])

As always, please report any issues in our bug report forum[forum.paradoxplaza.com] or submit a ... Read more

Hello everybody! Welcome to today’s Developer Diary!

My name is Arnau, I am an Internal QA Tester working at Tinto. And I'm here with Pintu to bring you this week's Dev Diary where we will focus on one of our favorite topics, the new Achievements that will accompany 1.35.

The idea we have about achievements is to try to give a new inspiration or goal to our beloved players. Some of them are to provide additional depth and difficulty of the campaign and others are paths that will diverge from your normal gameplay experience. We have tried to give a little bit of everything in these new achievements and we hope you will enjoy them.
With the focus of Domination being on some of the major powers of the time it was a bit more difficult than usual to find suitable Achievements, since a lot of these nations are already covered with a fair share of Achievements.
So here is the list of the achievements we at Tinto came up with for the 1.35 Patch.

Greetings!

Over the last few months we've been communicating Domination's features through a series of regular dev diaries. Considering the diversity of content being bundled up into this DLC, and in the interest of being more concise, we've summarized and assembled into this infographic new features included in EU4: Domination.



And for those wishing to revisit each DD for Domination and for the 1.35 update, here they are in in chronological order:

• Roadmap to 1.35 (13/12/2022)[forum.paradoxplaza.com]*

The last few months have been incredibly busy for the art team, and our artists have created a staggering amount of work, with around 600 brand new 2D assets including event pictures, government reforms, and missions to support the content that was added for Domination and the 1.35 patch.

Here’s some of our favourite examples:

Ottoman mission art:

Japan mission art:

Greetings Everyone!

Today we will take a final look at some of the balance changes and the additions for usermodding coming with 1.35.

We'll also be presenting changes to the Age Abilities. As some Great Powers have received changes to their power level, it was only fitting to adjust their Age Abilities too. We have a lot of balance changes to show off. So many in fact we don't have room to post them all in this steam post!

Today's Dev Diary can be found on our forums here:

Developer Diary - 1.35 Balance Changes and Usermodding Additions[pdxint.at]

Good afternoon and welcome to another Developer Diary! This week we will be taking a closer look at various types of new content added to the game, starting with a review of the new Government mechanics that will come with Domination, and the additions we made to previous DLCs as well as to the base game.

Before we begin, let’s take a moment to address the concern around power creeping in 1.35 that has been discussed by the community in the past weeks. The content we showcase in Developer Diaries is usually in a rough form, not just from the perspective of numbers but also even from that bonuses. QA and Beta testing, along with your feedback, shape and changes the content vastly over the coming weeks. As a result, more often than not the content of the Dev Diaries does not reflect the final iteration. We take great pride in combing through and interacting with many of the comments under the Developer Diaries. We wanted to take this opportunity and note that in the cases of the... Read more

Hello and welcome to another Development Diary! Today we will be talking about the new, yet undisclosed content for Europa Universalis IV: Domination, the new expansion that was announced yesterday!

We are very excited to show you the final features that we will include. But let's start by addressing some of the countries that may be on the list of what could be considered Early Modern Great Powers, the main theme of Domination, and that will not receive new content in this expansion. First of all, you may have noticed (and widely requested) new content to be included for two of the ‘historical winners’ in the Middle East during this time period, the Gunpowder Empires of Persia and the Mughals, and also for some other ‘historical losers’ in the area, as the Mamluks. To be clear, they were left out of this expansion on purpose, since we have future plans for the Middle East, so you can expect us to create new content for them in the future. Some of you may have al... Read more

¡Hola a todo el mundo, y bienvenidos! In this week’s Development Diary, we will be talking about the content that we have created for Spain and the different Iberian countries, mainly Castile and Aragon, as they are the top runners for its formation.

First of all, for the redesign of Spain’s content for the upcoming DLC, we took a bit different approach than other countries that have been shown in the previous weeks, following this line of thoughts:
- We thought that its mission trees did not need a major overhaul, as it was already quite developed in Golden Century, covering most of the Conquest & Colonization paths required as Spain; therefore, we aimed to redesign its structure, adding a few missions here and there to get some extra flavor, and to rework triggers and rewards, to update them in line with the other Great Powers.
- We also decided to put more effort into adding more ‘mechanical content’ instead.
- On top of that, we also decided to add more ... Read more
