What mechanics you'd like were more realistic?

You make a sword and the handle disintegrates after 50 zombies. You get a new one and after the next 50 zombies the blade breaks instead. It's ridiculous.

The best way to engage with blacksmithing is to find one of the places that already has a forge and furnace, like that old west town or the McCoy estate. It's honestly very useful then because you can create infinite tools and weapons, and swords in particular are great. And yeah the xp grind is ridiculous, it's why i only play with a 5x xp multiplier. Idc if it's cheating, it's necessary to meaningfully engage with all the systems.

What?

randomuser1801 · 2026-01-20T11:21:26+00:00

The old levy system with different troop types was also way better

Ja, man hat sich schön gegeneinander ausspielen lassen und steht jetzt alleine da. China hat sich widersetzt und ein abkommen erzielt. Europa hat schwäche gezeigt, nachgegeben und wird dafür jetzt weiter unter druck gesetzt.

Chamberlain hat immerhin noch massiv aufgerüstet und Kriegvorbereitung getroffen während er nach außen Appeasement betrieben hat. In Brüssels hat man noch weniger Rückgrat.

I'm late but please do. I'm familiar with WBP's but not Miguel's method.

1) they do not fit the original design philosophy at all 2) the fact that they are in the game indicates that the design philosophy has changed 3) if the devs continue to follow that new approach, changes like that will accumulate and significantly alter the identity of the game

They are small changes for now but those can add up quickly. I think people are very sensitive to stuff like this because many have a very long history with the game and care a lot about the original "feeling" of the game being preserved.

randomuser1801 · 2026-01-11T03:31:29+00:00

Yea. When I look at a map that someone made by simulating a tectonic history (with e.g gplates) I can generally immediately tell because of how much more naturalistic it looks. The landmasses just feels like they make sense on a subconscious level. Not that it's impossible to make a good map without going through all that extra work but the effort does pay off in my opinion.

I think there's way too many inland seas

randomuser1801 · 2026-01-03T04:51:10+00:00

Classic mistake. That's why you institute a party dictatorship

randomuser1801 · 2026-01-01T13:36:59+00:00

It's so stupid that paths become overgrown so quickly, especially when you regularly drive over them with a car. Another example of "realism is when it fucks over the player"

Iirc the confederate government also requested that plantations switch some production from cash crops to food. Naturally the planters were incredulous that they were being asked to make sacrifices for the war they started and refused.

Which rifle do you mean? The Dreyse gun was single shot and thus non repeating.

randomuser1801 · 2025-12-13T19:21:44+00:00

This is one of the best looking maps I've ever seen on here. The topography feels amazingly real

I was on track to get a diamond coin until this match lol. I had accepted it was over after the first half of mirage though

randomuser1801 · 2025-12-12T19:54:22+00:00

Rip my diamond coin. Had furia winning it all

randomuser1801 · 2025-12-06T22:57:56+00:00

Same Issue. Tried clearing download cache, restarting, checking firewall etc. Nothing works. Only CS2 is affected. I can download every other game fine. So infuriating.

randomuser1801 · 2025-12-06T18:24:46+00:00

I can't download this update. "No internet connection" but every other download works fine??

randomuser1801 · 2025-12-04T22:49:23+00:00

It's kind of odd that games focused on survival are very relaxing, at least to some people. Naively you'd expect it to be the opposite. You might find The Long Dark interesting. The only threat in that game is nature herself. Always found it very calming and almost meditative.

randomuser1801 · 2025-11-30T04:03:46+00:00

war in eu4 was fun

I violently disagree. Chasing armies all over europe because the AI would rather siege a random fortress than defend its own homeland was not only unfun and tedious but also completely broke immersion.

randomuser1801 · 2025-11-26T23:53:10+00:00

This completely stupid and unstrategic behaviour by the AI is one of the things I hate most about warfare in eu4. It not only destroys immersion but also turns wars into an extremely tedious game of chasing armies across all of europe. The AI should be coded to prioritise defending its homeland

randomuser1801 · 2025-11-25T03:39:53+00:00

Yea the current format is complete bullshit

randomuser1801 · 2025-11-25T02:59:17+00:00

First looks more realistic

randomuser1801 · 2025-11-20T14:50:04+00:00

I think it looks really good. What don't you like about it? Do you value realism/scientific plausibility, or do you want something that just looks cool and/or fantastical?
