Semper Fi out in a week
Hoi3 was far from a horrible game.. the engine itself has great potential.. paradox just got over their heads imho .. hopefully the first xpack will help..
(Yes all their xpacks should really just be big patches.. but im guessing they have no money.. so this is how they continue with the games)
Kinda like EU3.. pretty shit at release.. couple of xpacks/patches later its almost perfect
Anyways xpack info

Aod is excellent, had so much more fun in that game than hoi3. One of the biggest disappointments in years, lets all hope for a miracle in semper fi.
Eu3 was 10 times the game at release than hoi3 - still it had problems.

Still waiting on the steam release...
Really annoying that it's been out on gamersgate since yesterday and the steam version is still not here.
First feedback seems to be very positive. People are very happy with the new features and are especially happy with the AI.

Depends. Hoi 3 is playable but it's not very historical which seems to be the main "problem" among some of the players dissing the game. What I've understood semper fi is the same but improved..

Game is ALOT better now.. the new theater system is awesome... + being able to see how your command structure is ..
ill quote what i said in the notes before
| Quote: | * Players can now define their own Theatres with a simple dragbox system.
* The new Order of Battle Browser allows quick and easy reorganization of the entire Command Hierarchy.
* The Command Hierarchy is now directly represented on the map.
* A new Air Superiority map mode makes strategic air warfare easy.
* At game start, each country now gets to choose its own hidden Victory Conditions. Can your enemies guess your secret agenda?
* HQs under AI control now have separate aggressiveness stances for Land, Air and Naval operations.
* Countries can request specific actions from their allies for unprecedented cooperation.
* Technological progress can now be shared with your allies.
* Brigades can now be upgraded to more advanced types (e.g. Infantry to Motorized, or Artillery to Self Propelled Artillery.)
* New 1940 scenario fills a gap in the game's timeline.
* Hundreds of new events added to immerse players in their own versions of World War II, comparing the unfolding alternate timeline to real history.
* Mighty warships can be designated the Pride of the Fleet, which is both an opportunity and a risk.
* The AI has been improved in all areas, at all levels. It will defend in depth, marshal big naval taskforces and launch multi-stage invasions. It will perform more historical diplomacy and pursue a strategic production strategy.
* Multiplayer for up to 32 players |
.. all those things so far seem 100% true
Playing as Italy atm.. have made diff theaters.. i have
-- East Africa (Ethiopia)
--North Africa
--East (France border)
--West (Just steamrolled Yougoslavia.. and are massing on the greek border)
--Central (Italy itself)
Being able to define and *See* your theaters/ Hierarchy is priceless

How does that work? Do they really cooperate adequately?
Gonna try it soon when I have the time.

Read Semper Fi is sort-of crippled by a crash that happens when Call to Arms windows appear, preventing you from assisting allies.
Is this true?
