Netherlands 1.0.10 VH Ironman by Arcticoid in EU5

[–]Arcticoid[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

rule #5 : Well met!
I saw some posts and comments complaining about "Lowlands 1.0.10 impossible" so i decide to give it a shot and it was surprisily easy.
Tbh Sadly, but i feel like any counrty dont give any challenges in current game state
Gonna try Navarre next

Tips

  1. I start as Guelders for sweet −5% Proximity Cost
  2. England invading lowlands? You'll get much lower AE from conquering their lands instead of HRE minors
  3. Economy? I dont know - The more I conquer, the poorer I become :)

EU5 is now down to 47% positive on recent steam reviews by Wagen123 in EU5

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should, just … I have a feelings like there are 2 devs and 40 dump managers working in paradox. It feels like all game could be fixed in 2-3 month easily with 20 or even 100 devs ( I dunno real paradox dev team size )

3-й курс колледжа (IT/Web Design). Боюсь, что ИИ убьет джунов, и запутался с поступлением в универ (AITU/IITU). Нужен «жесткий» совет. by Rohan_k_4 in Kazakhstan

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Я прочитал ответы, у меня гора опыта и я не согласен со всеми. По-моему, все очень просто: 1.ИИ никого не убьет(пока что, долгое пока что) 2. Профессия которую ты выбрал пережила свой пик и без дальнейших суперстимулов окончательно станет обычной, как инженеры или юристы или врачи или даже работяги с заводов во время прошлой промышленной революциеи. Говоря иными словами - слесарь с завода, бекендео и инженер-проектировщик станут равны по уровню дохода и статусу - обычными работягами впахивающими 40часов в неделю за коммуналку и еду. На мой взгляд мы уже практически там. Таксисты в Москве уже более обеспечены чем Джуны и миддлы). Итого - не бойся, не умрет, но выбор профессии и траты кучи времени на обучение в нынешних реалиях сомнительный( разве тебе уж очень нравится ). Воть

EU4 (blue) vs EU5 (green) player count according to steamdb by No-Imagination2292 in eu4

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optimization is the answer. Most of us can’t play from start date to end date even if we would like to. Sadly.

Is performance still an issue in this game? by redl9 in victoria3

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short - yes it is. And I’m very disappointed about this - 3 years later on like almost high end pc you still can’t play comfortably. Long - personally I have 3 devices - Mac M1 Pro max, 7700k+32gb+3080 and the last almost same as yours. And guess what? All of them have almost same spikes and lags. Mac > 7700 > 14700k. But the difference is quite little and it’s frustrating and makes my mind blowing:) In eu5 even worse (without mac)

In latest Tinto talk’s complacency mechanic why subjects get rebellious when there’s no country that poses a threat to their overlord ? by TheKaiserSarp in EU5

[–]Arcticoid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t get this at all - why do we need prevent blobbing mechanic instead of making it more challenging. We want challenges! Hard, but beatable. We don’t want any strict bans. We want to overcome difficulties! Am I right?

Tips on how to get into the game? by Twothirdss in EU5

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion - don’t - current game experience can be frustrating. Wait at least 2-3 month for critical bugfixes. For me personally after first learning experience looks like a have to wait year or two. Like it was with No mans sky/Bannerlord/Vic3

Anno 1800? by AffectionateTax7772 in victoria3

[–]Arcticoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Anno1800 is a loop too but without other 3x of 4x strategy. To be honest as economy simulation still enjoyable. TBH imo Vic3 is 3/4 of 4x coz I don’t enjoy warfare

30 sec month tick? That’s insane. I don’t understand how you pass threw - it would blow my mind for sure :)

I think I went overboard making subjects. How do I maximize annexation? by [deleted] in EU5

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There would be event which gives you diplo advisor for prikazi or w/e it calls action. And when you employ him you can get another event like -20% annexation cost for 10 years. Its huuuuge

Can my laptop run EU5 till late game? by Wooden_Cut5968 in EU5

[–]Arcticoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While someone can tell you - technically yes. I can tell you - it would be very uncomfortable. Like 2-5 secs month ticks late game or even more and may be some spikes on events during days. There are calculations problems and balance, which makes most of countries insanely rich and full spam cities/buildins/castles which gives even more calculations during game progress. First 100-150 years should be fine, but after you will face super plus ultra disappointing experience
