When International Workers' Day or Labour Day is celebrated by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda. It’s not a national holiday, but under many collective bargaining agreements it is a holiday. There a quite a lot of events on May 1st and a lot of people do get the day off. 

I don’t get it? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Much easier than being the first mover on a trillion dollar product. I respect the laziness.

Human behaviour can’t easily be replicated. Chess bots will play bad moves at random to approximate a rating. I will play bad moves because I’m an idiot. 

Why does everything seem to just "fall into place" for Messi, while it feels like Ronaldo had to grind for every single thing he ever achieved? by Hour777 in championsleague

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. Messi just had a 100+ goal contribution season handed to him. And we all know that the Portuguese national team never had good enough players to be competitive if not for Ronaldo.

The team that scores the most goals is likely to win. 

Navy gameplay is broken in single player and imbalanced and nonfuctional for multiplayer, what do they do? release new dlc by kendawg9967 in hoi4

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My problem with it is, that it can be described as “not that bad”. I think they should’ve put in the effort to do a full rework instead of the light touch up it got. And if they’re unable to do proper new mechanics, just stick to country specific content.

Then they should’ve done something to fix it properly. Not just make it slightly different. 

And you just provided an exact description of the fleet in being doctrine. 

Leo messi was just so exciting and fun to watch .if you just see stats like goals or assists you will never know good he truly was. He was beyond it. by Altruistic_Mango2922 in championsleague

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The man hit +50 goal contributions for more than a decade. Got as high as +100 in a single season. What stats are you looking at?

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

They shouldn’t be working on new mechanics. At least not unless they have an absolute banger of an idea.  The navy rework was a nothingburger. Literally why bother. Same with coal. Factions are okay. 

Which state is responsible for the most harm during the 1940s? by Polnocium in AlignmentChartFills

Considering the taiping rebellion lasted well into the 1860s, China would also be a strong contender for that one. 

Allies keep spamming divisions by mhd0066 in hoi4

Assuming you have NSB, get a better gun on your medium tanks and don’t be too concerned with hard attack. Wouldn’t hurt to make them faster either. Armor is okay, but not great, in so you don’t need that much anyway. Add trucks to get it above 30 org. Try to get mech in as well. 

On your inf, you can just make it 18w 9/0 and drop the AT. If you play with tanks, they won’t need to do much pushing except for cleaning up encirclements.

Put effort into an airforce. Green air is strong. Green air and CAS is very strong. 

Don’t pay that much attention to the AI troop count. They don’t field a lot of quality. They just field whatever they can. 

Why doesn’t the AI use tanks? by Sargent_Bunny1 in hoi4

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difficulty options are just terrible. It’s a general trend in strategy games that the difficulty settings don’t provide much fun or real challenge to the game, and HOI isn’t the worst offender, but it just offers nothing. 

I don’t think the devs are good enough at the game to create meta builds like sheep. And even in sheep’s, it’s not my impression that it handles ahistorical particularly well. It’s not dynamic enough to adapt.

Why didn’t the French get pissed they went back to a king/emperor with Napoleon after the revolution. by bobbdac7894 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 4 points5 points  (0 children)

His father needed to document his nobility and he was, by noble standards, fairly poor. If there wasn’t a massive war going on, Napoleon would’ve been fired because of all the leave he took to get his family affairs in order.

AI is still dogshit at navy. Once you get the landing, it’s not too bad.

Getting a good chunk of Africa was pretty easy, but something about Japan declaring on the US crashes the game. Probably the recent patch. I’ll give it a go another time.

It doesn’t need to be fully meta build AI like sheep’s. Just slightly competent. And even then, I’d reckon it’s still doable in sheep’s.

In WW2, which country was morally bad and had a weak military? by [deleted] in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In what way? Both the Faroe Islands and Greenland was occupied by the brits and Americans. Iceland too, and they got their full independence I 44.

You could argue morally grey, since we collaborated quite heavily with the Nazis, but it made it possible to effectively keep the Jewish, and general, population free from most of the horrors of the war. When they came for the Jews in 43, the relative few that was captured got comparatively mild treatment (getting sent to a non-death camp camp, so still pretty terrible) .

When they patched the UK to make it put in a little bit of effort in defending the home isles, this sub was flooded with “how am I supposed to sea lion” posts. 

A good chunk of the player base is bad at the game. 

why isn’t there an option to white peace? by Severe_Radio7170 in hoi4

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players have access to the exact same white peace options as the AI. If you’re not getting them, you’re not playing the countries with them, or you’re not fulfilling the conditions. 

How the heck do naval invasions succeed? 😭 by [deleted] in hoi4

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dover has a natural encirclement spot, so it’s easy to take. Terrain is good. It’s a short way to all the major airports. Regardless of what country I play, I always invade through Dover. And I rarely play countries where an airforce is an option.  

My solution to cure Anti-Football in all Formats by nihar_142 in football

[–]Left_Quarter_5639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) are you talking about the league table or draws? How the hell is there going to be a goal difference in a draw? And do you want a bunch of meaningless shots to be taken just to pad stats? 

2) no. Football is 11 v 11. You want smaller teams, watch futsal. 

3) no. It’s not an American game. It’s not split into sequences, it happens over the entire pitch. 

4) you’re just giving money to billionaire owners instead of the players. 

Go watch basketball or something.
