>The crappy nulore
>Removed anything interesting
So many years after they promised this and it'll be the shitty nu-German version where nothing ever happens and we're only getting this lump of coal because they contracted out the work to submodders again. I hope for their sake that they don't get integrated. Every team that has been integrated had their mods thrown into eternal dev hell.
>>
>>2407782
so what is next for TNO? Is there any way they're going to be able to keep this momentum or is TMT basically their last chance?
I'm assuming Requiem's upcoming update is going to be outdoing TNO's again. Not going to be spectacular, but just solid.
And solid is far more then anything that TNO can offer nowadays.
>>
>>2407806
>Every team that has been integrated had their mods thrown into eternal dev hell.
ODF team is doing fine (it's a shame they're victims of the fact that other teams can't produce content for majors). Brazil (Cold Southern Springs) team is... questionable. TFL team is dead, I guess, and that's about it, unless I forgot something?
>>
>>2407811
What momentum? They released a facelift for a third-rate power and got completely steamrolled by TFR. It is admittedly their best update in a very long time, but we've mostly had shit like Mexico and Fiji after the realism clique took over.
>>
>>2407815
ODF went from being a fun little niche mod to being a lightning rod for hate because Mango et al trot them out and make them bear the brunt of the community vitriol for the lack of updates elsewhere. For them it's less that they've collapsed and more that I can't imagine that they've having a lot of fun dealing with the fallout from all the other teams being in dire straits.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>2407831
I don't think it's a Requiem thing. It's a "normal mod" thing. Almost no mods have their plans leak. When was the last time you saw anything from KR for example? The biggest leak for another mod recently was a TFR dev putting parts of their Git in an update but even then the reaction is night and day compared to TNO's. It's people getting excited for the funny warlord's focus trees instead of seething about gameplay being cut. Before then, TFR was largely leak-proof too despite being major in size and very controversial just like TNO.
It's just a sign of TNO's very toxic environment with all their purges, reworks and clique warfare. No other mod has it like that unless you count perma-imploding schizo toozer mods.

Is it safe to assume France will get this new skeleton in Yippie? Considering Algeria is being made French in 62 and Burgundy is being cut for the uber-exciting VnJ 2 year demo. When the fuck are we getting playable French content? What could possibly happen to all these GUI’s and content they teased for it years ago? This mod became a joke
>>
>>2408240
We know the next updates are yippie and than victor and judge due to rt leaks. Manchuria would probably be after that. It’s way too early to really tell, maybe 2029-2030? That is if tno development is still alive by than and donsnt decide to port to hoi5 or falls apart in general.
>>
>>
>>2408325
Planned for 1980's content including winnable scenarios at least for Germany, which is still a ways off. Very early, but Remer can succeed Speer, and he continues his militarist streak by pursuing Star Wars, i.e space anti-ballistic missile systems. This neutralizes the threat of nuclear war against Germany and lets them invade the United States, Red Dawn style. Keep in mind this stuff is 2 years off, minimum.
>>
>>
If the Devs can actually put out what they are planning then I wont be mad. As long as they release Yippe! by the end of this year with all the content they are adding I wont be mad. I think if they do it right they will gain a lot more respect even if possibly it wont be as great as old TNO, but its not like we could ever go back to how TNO used to be back in 2020. Just preform and actually put a rework out that is good and I am sure most people will be happy about it. That being said its hard to have faith in these Devs but they are all we have so I support them and I wish them luck. I also wish RA and Requiem luck and that they put out amazing updates too because I will be playing all three.
>>
>>2408187
I want basically what TNO would have been if it had kept all of its original Ideas and it expanded on into the 1980s, and at its max all the way to at least 1990 or even 2000 one day with and end of cold war epilogue eventually but Id have to agree WW3 in the 80s sounds awesome.
>>
I honestly think its better TNO is split into 3 different mods. 3 mods with the same art style and basic setting but with 3 different directions and ways. I like to see it as TNO is the most realistic while Requiem is in the middle and RA are totally out there are schizo but still grounded in story telling. I genuinely do hope all 3 mods succeed so maybe one day we'll all look back at the drama over the past decade of development and laugh.
>>
>>
>>
>>2408331
I appreciate the sentiment but this team delivering it's most overscoped update ever (according to the lead dev) at a time when you have purges, restructuring and everything leaking is frankly madness. Maybe if it was just the US rework by itself but they went about it in such a clusterfucked way that it has to be bundled with an Africa rework (that makes the entire continent unplayable) and a Germany demo (replacing GCW with a Denna gui) that are both polarizing at best. The mod truly died the moment DV was announced.
>>2408375
It's probably that TNO janny, he used to reply with 2010s me random jokes when trying to shit on reduxes.
>>
The Yippie update breaks down like this:
There are around 3.5 million words to be written. 90 percent of that is the core Yippie update because skeletons don’t require much writing.
Each quota is at most 1000 words. There are at most 15 writers active right now out of 42 or so in total
At current speeds, using current reports, Yippie will be done autumn 2030. If all active writers wrote to max quota, autumn 2029. If all the writers magically began writing to quota, summer of 2027. And if they were whipped so hard they wrote twice as much, they would barely make it across the finish line in december 2026.
I was shown these calculations. I have the receipts.

They could integrate ai and then just proof read it at the end to make it up to snuff. But these guys are shitlibs who hate the stuff so they probably won’t
Even if they did, you would have to take so much adderall and caffeine a couple would have medical issues half way into the writing and loose a good chunk of the staff

I’d assume that the vnj demo, DV, And amur are already done since Amur has been done for a long time and DV already had most of the work done prior to integration. The vnj demo is the only one we don’t know about so it’s a toss up wether it’s actually done or not
But even assuming the above is true, Yippie is so large that there is no way in hell they are getting this done without bringing on 100+ people working round the clock
>>
>>2408670
>Amur has been done for a long time
What the hell are you smoking? Are you seriously claiming that they've had a full Russian rework done and simply didn't want to release it all these years? Russia dev has simply been dead for years. Even their leaked documents say it isn't finished.
>>
>>
>>2408678
They said themselves that it was far from ready and we also have footage of "nearly finished" V&J stuff that obviously is nowhere near done. Maybe parts are playable but it obviously isn't done. If it was why the hell would they've relied solely on Antarctica to hold people over? Iberia was also "nearly done" around that time but it took six months of crunch to get it out.
>>
>>
>>2408696
You can't, that's impossible. DV fucks up the entire early game for the US by removing the SAW and screwing over all early game campaigns. I'm sure a devnigger will insist that it's no big deal and that you can just do a find-replace but anyone retarded enough to believe that you can just replace the US-SS gigawar with a GUI PP spamfest in Outer Angolastan or whatever the fuck they have planned is clearly a lost cause.

The receipt is that the writing leaks started shortly after he was purged and removed as a lead. I just don't believe in coincidences and having the biggest writer leaks ever hot on the heels of that seems about as likely as any of this actually releasing.
>>
>>2407811
I think TNO will keep limping along, continue being a divisive mess of missed opportunities, until HOI5 inevitably comes out and the mod falls apart.
Maybe some people who are fans of more classic TNO will take the reins of a HOI5 version of the mod, which will probably be vastly superior

>>
>>2408654
>That's tricky. How'd you bring it in without the economy mechanics of TT? How'd you work around it?
Pre-TT economics still had metrics like GDP and debt. For additional TT-specific metrics, they could have been given a specific UI for Guangdong.
Either way, I feel like Manchukuo without Guangdong would lose a lot of its charm of economic rivalry and competition for the attention of Tokyo

I don't remember where I've read this but the fact that he's made to accomplish nothing will happen regardless if he gets put into a cuck chair or not
>Wallace's America will see little change from when he first took office. His government's non engagement policy with civil rights will keep the south in the dark while the rest of America continues as normal, further dividing the country and making federal civil rights legislation more of a foreign concept. However with increased wealth among black Americans in the south, emigration can occur causing a 2nd great migration or expanded legal challenges against southern institutions in future administrations. The south will come to terms with the passage of time, though not under a Wallace Administration.
Like this could genuinely be worse than modern Wallace where you could at least do stuff and it felt rewarding. Now it's all same brands of liberals who can't accomplish nothing and there's no stakes to anything they do because if they fail they'll just be replaced with another liberal and train will always stay on track

After cutting the Yockster because he made them uncomfortable. A fascist being elected because people were tired of the uniparty failing? That makes Americans, especially liberals extremely uncomfortable.

That's not true at all. Go to the last HOI4 general on page 10. It has lots of TFR leaks after they put out parts of their Git on Steam for 5 minutes and the responses are a complete 180 from what TNO gets.
>I really want to play as Kaczynski!
>People debating LoS VS BLA
>People getting some hopium that 1.1 is half-done
>Hype for post-ACW content
It's as simple as giving people what they want out of their mods instead of thinking that only a vocal minority wants HOI4 content in HOI4. TNO's leaks get shat on because it's 5000 focuses of centrist liberalism for over a hundred in-game years, wars removed and at best replaced with GUI slop like the recent Iran shit, etc etc. At every turn the TNO devs are as antagonistic to the playerbase as possible. And we know it isn't just hatred towards TNO itself because people are actually pretty positive on Nixon just to give one example and that's despite the US rework being very unpopular on 4chan at least.
>drowning out legitimate critique
A lot of the changes aren't solved by fine tuning but are a result of the team's broader design philosophy. Deleting wars, railroading, plot armor, nothing ever happens, GUI slop. It's not changing and in fact whatever's leaked is likely to be made worse in all these departments.

Tno team/update check in 1/2
Yippie- Yippie will include the america rework, the space rework, the amur rework, the africa rework, and will revamp the start of germany content. While officially its planned to release in late 2026 a leaked doc show at the current rate it will release in 2030 and would need all writers to become active and work at max efficiency AND would need all that times 2 to actually meet the late 2026 deadline.
Germany/Victor and the Judge- VaJ is supposed to rework content for Speer and Bormann. It's planned to be the update after Yippie. Himmler and Goering is supposed to release in a separate update with Himmler being a SS Aristocracy and idk what Goering's supposed to be (no world conquest though, not even all of europe conquest).
Asia- Japan and China are no longer going to come out together and will each have separate updates. No knowledge has been gained about Manchuria rework. The asia team might very well be dead (probably is) as they have not said anything in round tables even when asked a question.
The Reichskommisariats- Rk moscow has been reworked again! Ostland is basically dead. I don't think they still plan on giving it content. Ukraine has received some stuff with TMT and a flowchart leaked for it recently. No partisan Ukraine paths can make a successful deal with Germany.
Russia- As stated earlier Amur will release with Yippie. Tyumen is supposedly the second most finished warlord. Gorky also gets glassed in ‘64.
>>
>>2410106
Tno Team/Update Check in 2/2
Italy- Leftcoms? CUT, Christian-Coms? CUT, Guevarist? CUT. The red italy paths have been cut down to a standard bolshevik path and a eurocom path. Nothing else newsworthy outside the flowchart that leaked.
France- Not much known outside the dev doc that leaked. Development is prob screwed over cuz of DV
Greece- Dev left
Turkey- according to the 12/28/25 RT >“TNO is aiming for progress in America, and sections like Turkey, Manchuria”.
No clue what that means but there also has been some billibilli leaks about turkey and some on this board.
Latin America+Brazil- Brazil devs are working on content for rest of democratic leader. Argentinas starting from scratch and getting another complete rework (now starts as far right pro axis government). Chile has been confirmed dead in a round table leak >“King Ahab`s Feast is not going to be an update!” King Ahab Feast is a chilean novel so im guessing that was the name for chile update. Mexico content is unknown o algo.
Antarctica- Jap antarctica is being worked on and Burgundian antarctica is now a path for german antarctica.
Tno also finally hit 600k

Another mechanical DLC releases in half a month, devs. Your constant ignoring of it is going to disappoint your userbase once again.
Reminder that under Panzer and Pacifica, all DLCs were fully integrated (tank designer, ship designer, spy agencies, etc.). You haven't done that for a single DLC since Pacifica left.

All of this is because the last guys that knew how to code in tech left in 2023. He started doing the plane designer, burnt out, and left. Another guy started doing maintenance on NSB trees but he left in 2024. I left later and no one bothered to fill any technical/design gaps. Technology is just an art project at this stage afaik.
>>2410148
A lot of it makes sense though. Judging by how overscoped it is I'd say it's more likely that it will take several years as opposed to a few months. Especially since a lot of it's going to require GUIs, scripting and other forms of more complex coding to implement.
>>2410210
No, the campaign currently ends when you take Berlin, prompting an Omsk victory where you glass the city. Post-WW3 content was planned but the team said they wanted some distance from Omsk before continuing working on it. We might get it once their Russia devs are freed up again after Berezniki is out but that's just speculation.

They don't even do anything interesting in the proposed reworks apart from IMPERIVM Nixon and nuking Haiti.
It's all just so bland and does nothing with the setting. To take an extreme example, DV. Gets handed a unique setting, proceeds to give you generic boilerplate OTL content. The US is the same. No stakes (apart from Republicans starting WW3 for no reason lmao), just a steady march towards OTL for everyone except Nixon. Almost everything unique to the setting gone, and even the supposed nightmare scenario of Wallace winning is just a speed bump on the road towards OTL with nature eventually healing a few years later. Snooze.

Dude he was legit fucked over by Mango and Lamounier in particular. You could have someone that was a complete genius and they still wouldn't be able to deliver because the rules of what interactions you can have with Germany change every couple of months and if he'd set his foot down he'd have been purged. He didn't, and Italy was reworked and reworked and reworked to fit a moving goal post until he was purged anyway. I'm disappointed too but we know that most problems with European TNO stem from the Reich clique and their endless reworks, plot armor and railroading.

TNO has a waterproof defense though: They don't need any of them because their mod has no gameplay. This is also why they deliberately disabled features like Balance of Power and other things that get in the way of their elaborate GUI slop. On the other hand they have no use of the game's basic functions because they broke their own mod so lmao.

Reminds me of what Corn said: "What's Russia supposed to do? Just sit around?"
Flip it: What's Germany supposed to do without any threats, just sit around and coast? I fucking believe it but we're not at a point where their butthurt over the Ukraine war not going as well as they'd hoped has led to them retconning that too and making us look back at Corn's tenure as a lead as the good old days with consistent planning for the future. It may not have been a future we all liked, but a potential round 3 in the 80s gave both sides something to work towards. I always did have an inkling that Corn wasn't that bad as much as he had bad influences. I guess all the dogshit takes on Russia were from the Reich team all along.
>>2410819
Guess it means all of Russia. I'm not opposed to the concept itself, it's fine that a total W in KR/KX leads to you just winning it all. But TNO has set out to make future content beyond that so now they have to make further plotlines I guess? Really would be better with something like TFR: one clear winner and loser, then prepare for the next war, or at least set up the slow process towards full annexation down the line properly.
I guess I'm overthinking this since we'll never seen 2WRW release in TNO, I just thought it was interesting to compare the early nudev regime to the current one. Although I'm certain that a nudev will post here and tell us that this was planned all along.

Also for these collaborator states, The only way they can gain independence is via the slavic spring succeeding. But what does that even mean? Wouldn’t a win for the slavs be a loss for the germans and thus discredit the fuhrer? How can the two agree without one looking like a bitch to their own?
>>
>>2410943
I think all this comes back to them retconning Germany into being centrists that abolish slavery and are hyper pragmatic realists where it's convenient. You know, like how Hitler freed the slaves in nu-lure?
>>
>>
>>2410943
It's the collabs succeeding in their response to the Slavic Spring by successfully suppressing/pacifying revolts, not by the spring itself succeeding. If it gets out of hand then the Germans have to crack down on it themselves and the collaborators aren't trusted to have a quasi-independent state.

File: caucasus.png (1.7 MB)
So /tno/, I tried that Caucasus mod and will now leave my late night review here:
As with most other submods they give you a promise of 4 years of content, this mostly comes through in a gameplay cycle of national focuses, some minigames and a couple of economic systems, you do not fight any conflict directly through normal fighting.
Lore wise Kaukasien is undergoing a period of an "experiment", were the RK is battling with the idea of the National Commities. Simply enough RK Kaukasien is a tapestry of all the different people's of the caucasus plus the Kuban and Kalmyks, all being droven by the orders of the RK in the hopes of achieving either a great state of collaboration or working towards sovereignty.
A conflict begins brewing within the RK between the Political Clique and the SS over the future of the "experiment", should autonomy be persued or should everyone be kept under the thumb of germany, it is your responsability to try and govern the RK through this period as things begin to unravel over the corruption and all the attempts from the SS to sabotage and eventuallytake over the RK.
Economy wise, you are the black fields of the Reich, you have a huge benefit in terms of yearly profits that can be used to either increase the control of the RK on the oil fields or allow German companies to continue plundering them. You can then use those profits to improve the different provinces through a Mexican like GUI.
Story wise I liked it, the intrigue, the different people all vying for power through whatever means they can pull off... The drama sometimes too.
War wise it is horrible, worse than China as you really don't get anything war related, hell you can't even try and aid Ukraine during it's Civil War.
Economy wise it feels very simple for what would be the biggest player in the Reich economy, the system to rebuild/improve the Caucasus is fun but the oil system of "The Heart" feels useless.
I would rate it 6.8/10
>>
>>2408187
Unpopular opinion, but Antarctica.
If possible, reuse an old version of Deep Freeze from the workshop, and then back port the features in.
I think Antarctica enriches the story with additional conflict zones and makes the Cold War more expansive, and in particular I really wanted to see something done with the Ahnenerbe.
>>
>>2411184
I've tried to convince GoodWinSon to add Antarctica, but he's averse to the idea. So far he's kicked the can down the road, but due to currently under development map modifications, I'm afraid it'll become more complicated than a simple drag and drop.
>>
>>2411174
So basically:
>99% story, being the main focus which is a meatier version of all the core points from the flowchart, with everyone of it's story points lifted and turned into a few focuses/events.
>1% economy, the bare basics for what was originally the dark heart of Germany's industrial economy.
>0% wars and conflicts despite neighboring a conflict zone, zero friction with the literal USSR (what remains of it), and nothing close to the original internal conflicts because it's all been sandpapered away in nu-lore.
Yep, sure was made by a nudev that has no interest in the actual game and it sounds shitty enough to be effortlessly integrated as it's completely self contained and pointless. It's not even like you can't have story driven demos that have action. Brazil's original release did. But with most of the world being a nearly blank canvas they just went with nothing ever happening.
tl;dr they turned Kaukasien into something resembling the Mexico demo lmao.
>>
>>
>>
>>2411608
Man i wish. With the proposed removal of Iberia the only wacky shit that stays is Russia. They could make USSR a starting country that can collapse to the current warlords if the player fails the focus tree.

>>2411608
There hasn't been any proof that they're cutting more, but you never know. They've already removed two warlords. I wouldn't be surprised if it'd been proposed but even the nudevs have to realize that's a bad idea.
>>2411632
When was this proposed? Are you referring to the guy from the last post claiming that they're doing it or did some real evidence drop?
>>
>>
>>2411649
So doesn't mean anything then. I don't mean that I don't think it's impossible obviously. The poster in the last thread made a very good case for it being plausible and I think it being presented as less sensationalist and more of a dev hell misery deal also seemed believable since that's happened to several tags. But until we get clear proof it's hard to believe.
>>
>>
>>
>>2411686
Probably based on this post, someone might want to screencap it: >>2394845
tl;dr someone claiming to be a dev says it's being cut eventually, but that it doesn't matter since it just means dev hell and zero progress.
It's 100% reasonable, makes sense, has happened before and is perfectly plausible but there's also literally zero hard proof.
>>2411704
These are the same people that think that non-canonical nukes are a good way to get out of a plothole so until I see hard proof for it I'll take it with a grain of salt. Honestly there's a good chance no one left on the team even knows the lore and don't care as a result.
>>
>>2411719
That dude also made some dubious claims, like claiming that the reason Brazil was in dev hell was that they didn't know what to do with the lobster wars when it was one of the first things they showed as a submod (https://files.catbox.moe/pjfb8m.png). And while you can never know with the nudevs. I'm pretty sure that guy was just yapping and saying what he thought would happen while claiming to be a dev so gullible people would give him attention.
>>
>>
>>
>>2411733
No I'm pretty sure the lobster wars fucked them over for a bit because you go from having Nazi Germany's #1 fighter be your opponent to something literally no one will give a shit about. I can guarantee you that they had fights about this before settling for the current garbage and that people had to waste several hours of their lives editing loc, gfx and code to get things up to speed. So I'll say it's very plausible that whoever wrote that was honest and that the toozers and end product is just a result of the half year delay that made these people pissed off to leak all this shit.

If it is really going to take another 4 years to finish what's in Yippe! why would they be saying its coming out by the end of the year, I understand maybe it being delayed 3-6 months into 2027 but there is no way they would say something like that with it seemingly taking that long. I think the team has a plan and i'm sure it'll come out by the end of Q1 2027 because why would they promise something like this and delay it 4 years. Am I missing something? I just find it hard to believe not that that anons math was wrong but I just don't buy that they intend to take that long without some plan to get it out earlier.

Delays aren't really a big deal for most people because we understand that these things can happen.

That's not Requiem. It's based on the half-started tree that was made years before they actually released it. Afaik Community Edition just grabbed a bunch of unfinished legacy content when they ported over everything to work with the Antarctica map because you could still access the tree in Community Edition ages ago. Maybe they expanded it? I know Requiem was supposed to rework it since they didn't like the rugpull ending of the original.

It's probably more of a general suggestion, but dynamic foreign policy.
Have the Right-Wing NPP presidents be more interventionists, have the Left-Wing far more willing to work with commies (hell maybe allow them to let pro west soviet paths become an OFN observer?).
Have Yockey try and ally the Germans against the Japanese, have Hall promote socialist parties across the OFN - just things to make each one feel unique.
I wouldn't be able to tell you what a good call for RD Presidents are, but I'm sure you can extrapolate interesting forpol from their IRL stances.

If he's still Italy lead? Yes, but I don't think it really matters since Italy got reworked anyway.
If he isn't Italy lead? Maybe, hard to tell. The original accusation wasn't that he was purged but that he had been given a different role that effectively cucked him.
The people that made the claims dumped a ton of of stuff and it coincided with numerous other leaks so for them to get so much right and hurt the mod as much as they did while fabricating that detail out of whole cloth seems unlikely. But I also wouldn't put it past the TNO devs to do that themselves. After all it'd be an excuse to not work on the mod.

>A Wallace America would be hard to design, much less implement. Segregation was so heavily tied into pre-Counterculture America, that envisioning an America where it survives on in the South or perhaps nationally under Wallace in the 1970's and 1980's and possibly even 1990's becomes complicated. It would be like imagining a timeline where the HRE never formed, the butterfly effect is so pervasive and you have to account for so many variables, that you're describing a fantasy world than alternate history. Segregation would never last past the early 1980's at the latest given the ever-changing elements of American culture with the implementation of the 24 hour news cycle and more modern forms of political mobilization. Bennett's gradual integration is more realistic, it can be envisioned, RFK's radical integrationist policies are more realistic, these were things that were implemented on the local level, LBJ is more realistic, he is merely what happened OTL, but Wallace? It is segregation pushed on the whole country by a rapidly fading political bloc, who most of the time come into power under chaotic circumstances.
tl;dr Segregation even in just the South wouldn't have survived past the 80's.
Retard claims NPP is a fading political block and that segregation is impossible because it would be too hard to implement (makes more sense once you realise that the only think he's capable of implementing is le heckin funni klaus schwab and putin). I think requiem also believes in that because NPP inevitably collapses and everything return to duopoly and they had an absolutely diabolical USA rework that got leaked

Kind of and yes. Arguing with people on the Internet and internet is pointless mental taxation with no reward, especially about American politics.
>>2413902
I was referring to the segregationist bloc of the NPP-FR, not the NPP as a whole. And yes, for a team of two people max, it WOULD be hard to implement, especially when you have to account for how it would affect American 1970s content.

I wouldn't say it was pointless. You revealed a lot about your character and lost some good will trying to defend nuTNO's decisions. You should remember that your only purpose is to preserve Panzer's legacy. Once you step out of line and add your own reworks it'll quickly turn into discount nuTNO (shit) since you're neither talented nor creative enough to come with new scenarios as was revealed in your messages.
>And yes, for a team of two people max, it WOULD be hard to implement, especially when you have to account for how it would affect American 1970s content.
Don't make it about yourself, no one was asking you to do anything. We were talking about Yippie and reworked wallace. There already was a good path for wallace but instead of building upon it they decided to butcher everything and make a completely new trees for a bunch of new presidents in a completely different setting with NPP, Africa and GCW cut out. That's a lot more changes than just adding a successful Wallace.

They removed railroading and made it easier to stay authoritarian (earlier you had to go through a convoluted event chain that gave you 60% stability or else you would collapse and even if you did everything right Iberia would dissolve). It looks like TNO devs have some sort of boner for authoritarian managerial states as can be seen in their most recent updates (brazil, mexico, latam skeletons). I think it's because they're neoliberals and want everything to be run by the european commission and the "experts"

I have the theory that by "fascist populism" they mean their "new conservatism" subideology.
It being a jab at reaganites would really track with QPQ's record. I simply can't believe that the Yippie team is retarded *enough* to make Connally a full blown fascist to own the republicans

>I simply can't believe that the Yippie team is retarded *enough* to make Connally a full blown fascist to own the republicans
Nigga this is the same team that made Schlafly, a random conservative activist, into a full-blown fascist but you're seriously going to sit here and say that they'd treat someone they hate even more with greater respect and maturity? Do you seriously think QPQ wouldn't just treat it as an even bigger W against Reaganites and Drumpfler by labeling them as actual fascists rather than showing some nuance? You're way too optimistic, dude.

>>2414402
In the US flowchart, Connally appears to be under the "new republican" (aka reaganite) banner, which, for the dev team, is the second (third?) worst ideology to have ever been conceived.
Connally in his first term doesn't really do anything typically associated with fascism, and, like another guy pointed out, he even relaxes immigration restrictions.
It is very clear that they want to paint the poor guy as the personification of corporate interests. To make him an outright fascist would be a massive missed opportunity to develop an actually coherent story.
>>
>>2414660
Connally wasnt even designed back then and yippies fascist derangement syndrome came later. Im not arguing that he becomes a fascist im outright stating that he does and i know cause i have been the one to leak this.
Why, you may ask? Mango outright believes the US is a fascist state with an appearance of democracy in yippie, he fundamentally believes FDR and the new deal was fascism.
Every single president is a fascist besides Chisholm. This is meant to be subconsciously something that the player understands after a playthrough, not outright stated.
The reason why some flip to fascism straight up is cause they use the fascist tools of the fascist state for fascist goals, but otherwise every other leader besides chisholm, whose narrative is the end of fascism in america, is a fascist and cant dismantle the fascist system. Not even the other white progressives or Reuther cause he is tied with the unions, which are part of the fascist corporatist system. Burtons narrative for example is solidifying the one party state aspect of fascism under an eternal liberalism.
With this you can pretty much understand everything about yippie. This isnt a meme. I know more than you.

Ok this could be interesting if done right, with WW2 being won by fascists and the US slowly sliding into that subconsciously. What I'm wondering is why Chisholm? is it just because le black girlboss or what?

Knowing the target audience of TNO why would anyone want to play as a black girl boss to begin with? who does this appeal to other than their own stupid resistance lib slop they love to shoehorn into shit and make it garbage. I understand having a black president but shouldn't it have been a male? No one wants to vote for some dumb nigger EBTesha or a child raping karen irl so why would they elect one in a world where the dominant ideology is literally Fascism and racism is normalized. I feel like these devs are attracted to something like TNO because they just want to destroy the setting because they can't help but seethe at a world where Hitler won.
>>
>>2414727
This premise is so ridiculous. You cannot change from political system to political system on a whim.
You need to destroy the previous institutions and rebuild them anew to change the underlaying structure of society. This simply cannot be done in America from the inside of one of the two hegemonic parties because the incentives simply aren't there.
I dare you to find a single example of entryism into any established political movement of a bureaucratic state that has succeeded in changing the underlaying structure of society.

If the Nixon tree is accurate, I'm pretty sure the only way you can get her to actually win the primary is by Nixon boosting her to ensure what he sees as an easy win (for the reasons you've mentioned.)

The narrative of America being the lesser evil stretches all the way from the first days of the mod, and is the responsibility of Panzer, whose politics boil down to flirting with fascists he supposedly hates and mindlessly worshipping every progressive/liberal/socialist/communist wholesome chungus movement. The current devs simply evolved this idea to America, for one reason or another, being fundamentally fascist even though their institutions couldn't be more different.
This is really just a case of sheltered people using certain terms incorrectly. Double points if they're American and are obsessed with hating their country.

>>2414739
Trannies obsessed with Cold War-era politics typically come away with that impression, mainly thanks to their incredible vilification of boomers and the old ways of life that don't vindicate theirs immediately.

Nah, Panzer America was fundamentally good and far more nuanced. Lots of normal politicians, the ability to dab on Germany by landing on Mars and the actual far right options like Yock required things to go south. This is like the new Star Wars movies making people rethink the PT.
>>
>>
>>2414742
I don't disagree that his America was far more moderate, and he himself was willing to believe that its democracy could work if his specific wholesome chungus got elected. I just believe that a lot of this shit came from examining his past work and from the dudes that came after him stewing in their Discords and becoming even more extreme. Hell, current Panzer might be on their level of retardation after his transition.
>>
>>2414732
The Democrats have been in charge for give or take 20 years by 1962 other than Nixon. I think you could compare it to the Republicans being in power for the entire period between 1968 and 1992 (barring Carter) and being able to entrench reagan-style free market neoliberalism into the US. Even when Bill Clinton became president in 1992 he was fundamentally a neoliberal economically, shaped by the Reagan years. I don't think it's enormously out there for corporatism to become the dominant system in TNO's circumstances.

Truth nuke, although the blacky is also a fascist desu she’s really no different than Humphrey, fdrite, corpotist. Goldwater and other lolbert adjacent presidents are probably the closest thing to a anti fascist president.

I like the idea of adding more presidents and reworking some stuff in America I just wish they had kept Yockey as they did Hall and made it so each president they actually do a respectful job making paths for instead of just shitting on every conversative president and making it so you have to be a retarded Neoliberal like them to have a fun time. I bet most republican presidents are just going to be a Trump obsessed poorly written critique just to say "Republicans are the real Fascists" Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you people?

I think the structure of

An old proposal for Yockey was that
>he'd slow-boil fascism over his two terms, introducing more authoritarian stuff (you can include your drumpferino is a nazi references here if you like)
and then finally destroy all convention by running for a third term, mask-off.
That's interesting, and actually makes for a fun story of destroying a structure from the inside-out - while now half the Republican leadership can just swap to fascism (not even civilian dictatorship or the like, but full on fascism apparently), by... centralising power? Or firing on protestors?
Panzer's waxing about how the US was actually as bad as both Imperial Japan and the Nazis was silly, but in the VP design doc they openly compare Nixon to the two. It's just such an odd attempt to blackwash the whole affair.

I mean this is an interesting premise, The new deal was economically very similar to both fascist italy and nazi germany and both regiemes praised the new deals policies. Moreover FDR did centralize a fuck ton of power within the executive and basically bullied the branches of government into compliance.
In the tno tl, The new deal coalition is stronger because it was the old right wing that lost the war. Moreover the FBI and CIA are all chock full of former NKVD officers who ruthlessly root out any nationalist dissent to the liberal corporatist new order. If im reading this right, The fascism of the USA is not its governance style, Its the deep state that meticulously preserves the new deal administrative state and subtly crushes any dissent.
So There is not much difference between our tl and the TNO TL except that the full blown fascist powers like germany and japan call the americans delusional because they lie to themselves by pretending to not be like them, That they are any better when they govern the same way and exploit in similar ways
Its a fascinating premise that could have been executed far better if the devs weren’t shitlibs who recognized that barry goldwater was really the only candidate who could have undone the damage fdr did. Instead they pick a sheboon which is on brand

The idea of the New Deal coalition growing to dominate America in increasingly totalitarian and fascist inspired ways is actually a very interesting premise. FDR did take a lot of inspiration from Mussolini after all. The problem is when you try to square this premise with the sheer lack of creativity in the basic set up for nuTNO America. Really to make this premise work the country should be under a new party system, essentially one dominated by the Democrats. Elections should be contested by different factions of New Dealers, with the Republicans relegated to a permanent minority party with no chance of winning in any meaningful sense other than extreme edge cases. Instead the potential presidents are just 90% irl famous figures in the same eternal duopoly as real life except everybody accidentally becomes fascist except for one black lady.
The whole thing smacks of scattershot development and scopecreep. Obviously I don't know the intricate details, but it really seems like this whole America is fascist idea arrived way late in development and was awkwardly retrofitted onto content that was very much not designed with it in mind. I guess the only solution would be to restart development from scratch but wow that would be an awful idea at this point.
>>
>>2414899
I personally don’t believe that every president will be a “fascist” it’s just that the underlying institutions are already Psuedo fascist as is. The tools are there but it’s up to the person in charge on how they choose to wield them. Do they accidentally create a psudeo fascist state? Do they expand the new deal? Do they strip some powers but keep the underlying structure?
It’s like the ring of power, It amplifies the wielders powers and allows them to do what they will, but the ring always whispers that they can always have more power, They can always rule forever. Why not indulge in a bit of executive authority? Why not declare a war without congressional approval? Why not bully through this legislation? Past a certain point, you realize that you’ve accidentally become a dictator. Not because you seized total power, But because every one bends before you and no one said a single word, They just saw your dictate and they obeyed

Doesn't mean anything. Honestly even leaving the dev server wouldn't necessarily mean anything. Sometimes devs just take a timeout and the reasons for it can be completely benign. We rarely if ever get any drama from the Asia devs so it could just be anything. Unless a new lead is appointed or the guy's gone for weeks I wouldn't really pay any attention to it.
>>2416107
It's pretty common. The ones that don't just have role-locked channels on the community server which basically is the same thing in practice. The only mods that don't have any of the sort are smaller ones and you can count ones with public Gits to that list too like KX and TNO:RA. The actual secrecy and shenanigans in TNO usually comes from DMs and group DMs between cliques. That's where the real scheming happens, and that IS abnormal within TNO.

But ayrt is right. Perhaps worded crudely but it's not an unfair way to describe the reworks.
>Most states destined to get loyal collab governments that support Germany's wider ambitions for Europe against Russia
>Their borders are expanded eastward, hotspots like Narva purified
>All evil Russian leaders are turbocucks that bow before the Baltics and respect their enlightened borders, literally denied the ability to encroach on their historical claims
>Finland reworked in stages just to have Russia be too weak to gain any parts of Karelia even if they win
>Ukraine always destined to work with Germany, be its breadbasket, and be a future bulwark against the evil Russians
>Germany reworked and whitewashed to simply use people from these states as guest workers instead of brutalized slaves
>The evil Russians are infighting, slaughtering themselves, get recreationally nuked and aren't even really allowed to fight back while the Baltic bros slowly evolve into being normal members of Germany's sphere
Perhaps a better way to describe it would be as a kind of neoliberal/NATOpilled power fantasy. Although really it doesn't even do that right since you need to suffer from terminal levels of political brain rot for any of this to land just like how the absurd levels of TDS in the US rework makes most of it come off as comical rather than the hard-hitting political commentary it is in Mango's warped mind.

>>2418015
That is how the Germans intended it though? The crux of Alfred Rosenberg's vision for Eastern Europe was a so-called 'Wall around Muscovy' which would see all the non-Russian minorities of the former USSR receive preferential treatment at the expense of the 'Great Russians'. They were to be incentivized to see Germany as both their benefactor and protector against possible Russian revanchism in the future which would make them dependent on Germany in perpetuity. That is why RK Ostland, Ukraine, and Kaukasien are all as big as they are in the first place. It's just one element of the plan to empower the non-Russian minorities at the expense of the Russians. In fact, it's more odd that Ukraine isn't bigger in TNO (though as it turns out, this is because they didn't know about these plans until later in the development process for Ukraine and didn't want to go back and change everything). That being said, if you look at a map of what RK Ukraine was intended to look like and see TNO's states, you'll find it matches 1:1 so perhaps they'll change that too in the future. As for the 'slavery' thing, forced laborers are still used regularly in the RKs (at least in Ukraine and Moskowien) but it works in accordance with how it actually worked in real life. German forced labour wasn't like chattel slavery in the Americas.

It's so fucking funny you tards fell for Panzer's vaporware that was specifically designed to keep the hype machine going and are still mad about it seven years later.
Most of those "teasers" had no functionality at all, no effects, no requisites, no real structure for how they were supposed to play out.
All the plans for them were basically glorified design docs but made in a way that retards would obsess over it in the discord.
The most infamous example of this is Burgundy, which was hyped as the instigator of WW3 that had its hands everywhere and was the biggest nothingburger ever when they finally released. See also Kaukasien, which was cut, and Göring who was basically unplayable due to bugs.
t. oldhead who was on the team at the time
>>
>>2418086
And yet, the world building and tone was a million times better than the "realistic" slop they're promising now. Which is actual vaporware (unlike something that y'know actually released), and the promises people actually cared about from back in the day could've been realized if people had, you know, fixed up the tags in the mod instead of spending half a decade and some change to remove everything and start over from scratch.
>Oldhead
Going to press X on that one since several of the things you reference are just portrayed wrong and you can actually experience it yourself in RA. A less disingenous portrayal would be to say that a lot of it was unfun and fell well short of the potential. But that's still a better achievement than the nothing-ever-happens extravaganza they've been chipping away at for years with zilch to show for it.

>Going to press X on that one since several of the things you reference are just portrayed wrong and you can actually experience it yourself in RA.

See this is why I don't think you're an old hat after all. You wouldn't make these rookie mistakes especially if you were on the team when they were in development.
>Kaukasien
Not meant to be part of the original release but was instead meant to be part of V&J before they deleted everything and told someone to rework it from scratch.
>Burgundy
Release version did allow you to fuck up the entire world but this was removed later. The tag was severely neutered post-release when Lamounier decided that he was just going to delete everything. Burgundy still isn't fun to actually play in either iteration and I wouldn't recommend it. An actual Himmler path for Germany is an upgrade but it's not like we'll see it this decade.
>Goering
He had full content on release which the submod restores and fixes/adds various things to. It was actually possible to do all war plans up until the end but was unwinnable by design because once you reached the points where you fight America or someone else with nukes you get a scripted game over.

Was one of the first tags ever teased for the mod, with stuff like the Josias crowning, Indians Jones stuff, etc being shown in a dev diary circa 2017. Obviously it was never actually developed, and it wasn't present beyond an skeleton at release.
>Burgundy
Main example of smoke and mirrors. Burgundy's FP content was hastily designed to have something to show for at Release, without any real impact on the broader mod. No, beyond supporting Heydrich, you could not make the world end.
>Göring
I'm aware he had full content. It was infamously broken on account of being bug prone, and even the submod is years later.

I don't think enough people talk about this but this is so wrong from a narrative perspective. OG TNO was about the corrupting evils of fascism and how no one is better off from nazis winning. If you were a subhuman in nazis eyes and you helped them murder other "subhumans" then you getting killed off once you outlived your usefulness was a poetic justice.
When you make nazi collaborators have their own empires and nothing bad happening to them from serving Hitler what does it say about your mods message? Not only that but they CAN'T be punished for their crimes in any capacity regardless of player choice because Russia can not take back the lands they stole.
>>
>>2418176
Well that isn't my point. That's what the deboonker keeps yammering on about. I just think it's stuped and pointless when the mod was originally schlock named after a videogame that had Mars Landings and sun guns. These are the same people that think America being fash and still electing a black woman in the 70s is highly realistic though so it's obviously just a buzzword used to validate unpopular opinions.

>>2418178
Yes, Kaukasien was teased and then unfinished. I'm sure they could've finished all the planned content for Josias if they didn't remove everything. Instead it's been five years to get a new, completely different wholsum collaborator skeleton.
Burgundy wasn't all smoke and mirrors you're referring to the rework. It's still a very bad and unfun experience.
I think you're also overstating how buggy Goering was since I and others managed to finish runs with him just fine and the reason it was never fixed was because it was abandoned as the Germany lead wanted to replace it. Its replacement has yet to actually be worked on though so lol.

>>2418186
I'm sorry, but I've always found that train of thought to be incredibly self-serving. Obviously, whenever an epoch changing conflict ends, someone is going to lose out and someone and is going to benefit. The idea that literally no one benefits from the Nazis winning is just ideological masturbation quite frankly. You sound like one of those people who bitterly seethe at even the hypothetical scenario of Hitler winning WWII and demand that even in victory, the Nazis must apocalyptically crash and burn because 'bad guys can't win' or some other naïve, cringeworthy ideologically driven claptrap. I would think that someone who shares your train of thought would be happier with TNO's new messaging; that Fascism isn't something you can just wait out because it will inevitably collapse upon itself, but something that needs to be actively fought it it is ever to be brought down. The changes you are seeing in TNO (for Germany and Europe at least) aren't whitewashing, they aren't bending the historical record, in fact they are moving ever closer to it. From what I have seen from the teasers, leaks and in-game, the portrayal of Germany and its sphere is as close to reality as it gets and personally, I applaud that.
>What does it say about your mod's message?
What exactly should it say? Bad people get away with doing bad things literally every second of the day. There are good, honest people who suffer meet horrible, cruel ends and there are vile, loathsome people who live to a ripe old age and die peacefully in their sleep. That's just the way the world works. If anything, that makes TNO more realistic in my opinion, since, as you so lamented, it works the same way in the mod as well. And as far as I know, Russia can take back those lands, it just hasn't been added in yet.

But TNO is not a real life, it's a fiction. A narrative should have themes and a message. By your logic everyone should make miserable medias where main characters die without accomplishing anything and bad guys win because "that's how real life works" or something. By making it as realistic and historically accurate as possible you end up making unfullfilling, themeless and meaningless slop. A fiction has a universe that works on different rules than RL and anything can happen as long as writer wishes it. TNO had it's own coherent logic that it adhered to which reinforced it's themes. Germany wasn't well off after WW2 because they had a WRW and a GCW afterwards. Italians weren't well off due to Atlantropa destroying everything. The japanese weren't well off due to Kishi and war with China or something. The eastern euro's weren't well off because they were forced to slavery and germanized. Every piece of lore was working towards building a coherent world and a narrative that had a message.
By simplifying it as another historical conflict where side benefits at the expense of the other strips it of any weight and stakes and whitewashes nazis to be not inherently evil but just germans benefitting at the expense of russians or something.
>it works the same way in the mod as well.
That's where I fundamentally disagree with the nuTNO dev. A mod is not a historically accurate record. It's a work of fiction and every work of fiction has a theme and a message. NuTNO's message is that nazism is okay and shouldn't be treated any differently from any other nation trying to build it's sphere of influence
>>
>>
>>
>>2418234
If that's how you really wish to see it then I'm sorry, we'll never see eye to eye because fundamentally, I couldn't care less about some moralizing message. I'm not interested in some ham-fisted, preachy, moralizing lecture on the nature of National Socialism or Fascism or whatever ideology. I wanted an interesting, well research scenario that adhered as closely as possible, based on all existing evidence, to what Germany and Europe would have really been like in the event of a German victory and so far, that's what I am getting so I cannot complain. The fact of the matter is, TNO still has a message that is in fact, overtly anti-fascist, even if it isn't anti-fascist enough for you because you don't get to take a massive, triumphalist victory lap around its corpse and then piss on its grave. You want a power fantasy where you can cry and rage at the big bad Nazis and then, with a heart filled with noxious self-righteousness, take the fight back to them, mow them down like video game NPCs and set the world back to rights with the power of 'insert my pet ideology here'. I'm not interested in that. I'm getting what I want and I certainly won't complain if I get even more of what I want. I'm sorry if that doesn't appeal to you but it does to me. I sincerely hope the devs continue their academic journey and incorporate what they've learned into the mod instead of relying on pop-history memes, overused cliches and gross caricatures like everyone else does. So far, they are not doing a bad job (on the research and design front, the implementation front could use a lot of work).

God, you are such a pretentious person. I write literal Helltaker fanfiction that's way more interesting than this, because I don't shit on the setting I've been given and work within it, keeping it fun. Sure, I use historical and mythological/magical stuff from real life, but I always go by the principle of erring on the side of fun when it makes things interesting, with wonderful results. I guarantee that whatever I write would be a hell of a lot more fun to play than your version of things if it were a mod; Astaroth and the city of Dis alone would make you have a stroke.
>>
>>
>>2418296
I may be cringe to some, but I keep the setting fun, the message straight, and the logic consistent and coherent within the universe it's in. Nudevs could never make a Nephilim president of the US, they can't even do regular people.

Holy shit you guys are such faggots. You guys literally have RA and requiem, You can just play those if you don’t like nu tno. Why are you treating this like it’s a personal attack?

What you say is quite true. That is why I qualified my statement by focusing exclusively on Germany and Europe. I don't know what goes on in American development beyond whatever I see here. All I can say is that Germany and its sphere is well researched, irrespective of whatever goes on in other parts of the world.
>>2418293
That's nice and I'm glad you enjoy it. I enjoy the direction TNO Germany is going and I think, should the Germany update ever release, I will have fun with it. That is all I will say.

>>
>>
>>2418258
I'm happy for you if you can enjoy current TNO, but majority of people including me hate everything nudevs do and the popular opinion is one of the major metrics we can use to determine a value of a product.
If you're making this mod to get a grade from your professor then maybe you're doing everything correct, but if you're in the entertainment industry then your goal is to make something which is appealing to the playerbase. Even if it is appealing to you PERSONALLY it still is harmful to the mod overall since majority of people don't like it and you're bleeding devs and fans as a result of that.
>>

>>
>>2418331
I mean he could do whatever bullshit he wants if it's his own mod. The problem is that a mod people liked was hijacked. He should just have made his own TCT mod or something.

>>
>>2418331
Well, I'm certainly not going to pretend I'm not part of the minority. But that's fine with me. I won't disagree with anything you've said. Though I should I say, I actually don't enjoy current TNO because I know (theoretically) something much better is in the works. When/if V&J ever comes out, I will probably enjoy it again.

>>
There is always TNO: RA and Requiem. I see TNO: RA as basically if TNO stayed on the same course and had no reworks sense 2020 and Requiem is more of a middle ground between modern TNO and Old TNO. So hopefully once all mods are finished everyone will be happy because they'll me three mods that are all pretty great in there own way. It is sometimes interesting to think about what could have came of TNO if the reworks and nudevs never took power but that ship has sailed and you just have to jump boat to the other mods that add the content you liked back and expand on it. I'm sure in 2 years we'll be in a far better position and the people will be happy. Even if in the end it took over a decade of development. to create something good.

It's a mod, anyone can make it, you could make it if you had any skills or energy. No one is stopping you or anyone else who owns the game from making exactly the version of TNO you want. The evil nu-devs aren't holding the only copy of the TNO code hostage, it's yours to do what you want with. But you won't. Because you're talentless, lacking creativity, artistic skill, historical knowledge or anything required to create something even you yourself would enjoy playing, not to mention anyone else.

It's not that, it's that the devs went and changed everything about it instead of making their own fork of it. Had they done that, nobody would have minded and it would probably have a sizeable following. Nobody likes a hijacker though, and that's what happened to TNO. I've half a mind to post my President Behemoth greentexts just to show nudevs how it's done; I can't draw or code worth shit, but that I can do.

>>2418418
This, really. No one will hate you as passionately as a scorned fan. Even if the nudevs made something good they'd still have a large but manageable hatebase from that alone. But not releasing anything but Fiji and Antarctica for three years is what makes them so heavily a-logged. They can't point to anything but promises and a lot of those aren't even that good.
>>
>>2418418
What 's been hijacked? The steam workshop url?
There is no difference between the devs creating a fork at whatever version you deem the last 'pure' TNO and leaving that version of the mod to people who didn't like subsequent changes, and the people who didn't like subsequent changes making a fork of the last 'pure' version of TNO themselves.
>>
>>2418428
Your clique voted itself into power and started reworking the entire mod. That's what people are referring to.

Yea that's the major reason for hatred. No one likes when the product they love gets a change in leadership and the leaders hate their fanbase and do everything they can to say "fuck you" to the players.

I've never said anything about being "good". I said that if you're into entertainment industry you must make something which gets attention and you shouldn't piss of your fandom.

>>2418479
Not a dev btw just doctoragor. The real reason you all are upset is because old tno gives you the warm and fuzzies and since your depressed, autistic, and gay you desperately want that feeling again.

Concern:
Hello, I only recently joined the team and have done all my writing work for the
modern tordesillas. Some of the pieces I've written have been some of the best
writing I've done and I feel that I've grown a lot, thanks to frolicking and the many
LCs/Deputy WLs that have come and gone.
However, seeing the recent criticism on social media about the Latin American
skeletons have really demotivated me. Not many people seem appreciative of the
content and really makes me start to think about what I'm writing about or who
I'm writing for. I feel like 90% of the players will just gloss over something I've put
hours, days, weeks, months into. This is not a fault of the designers, I've loved
spending my time not only writing, but also learning these countries and their
leaders. But it's just so crushing to see people seem to only care about Italy
instead of an entire subcontinent worth of content. This is not hatred towards the
community, but just any advice on how to move forwards and write when you
know no one wil
>>

Because the questions you posit are the boring stuff nobody cares about. Nobody who likes tfr actually enjoys the dem germany content because not only does it have 0 content you get to wait 5+ years for the Z ai to declare war and then repeat it again. Comically easy wars btw. Cognoscenti is actually slop cooked up by your favorite ziggers and latinx devs. Hope this helps!

Instead of just looking at old TNO with rose tinted glasses, I like the old content too and its nostalgic but it isn't coming back and I've accepted that, now all I want is to support the dev's so they can finish the work that they have started so me and everyone can enjoy what they have planned and actually give it fair judgement instead of just crying about the SS Africa War being removed, not that I didn't enjoy that stuff when it released and have found memories.

When in fact most of the people that are unhappy with how the mod turned out just unsubscribed and moved on to different mods/games altogether with several fan forks available as well by now. They can rework their mod as much as they won't and most people in this thread won't be affected at all by this point. For a team of toxic control freaks it really must sting to learn that the world moved on without them while they're still fighting over leaks.

I'd say there's a decent chance more people care about things like the GCW and the Russian unifiers that were brought back than the troonslop you made for Antarctica.

False. India is white and the Ganges is an Aryan river. TNO nudevs are black Pakistanis with impure swineblood. RA vs TLD really is the modern Indo-Pakistani war where the Aryans of the subcontinent will crush the Muslim pigs that reworked Panzer's vision for the Aryans.

If Pikeman was supposedly purged from the team why are they still trying to keep up appearances that he's on the team?
The other main Italy dev, Quetrab, left the team and is making his own submod now, while the Japan lead, 5Shi, just left the team and they aren't trying pretend he's still on the team

Both work IMO, I lean slightly towards "free republic" because it's more distinguishable from the names of the other unifying russian tags. Alternatively you could just have "Free People's Republic" for both Kaminski and Gorbachev.

It actually isn't a complete ripoff. Suzerain actually requires you to shit all over her values and political beliefs. On top of that Anton (the player character) in the game is a chad and keeps leading the country anyway because he knows he can get a hot trad wife later.

There's never been a full Germany document. Maybe in 2021, but the thing's exploded in scope and been internally reworked so many times that as far as we know they seem to have separate docs for everyone. We learned this from a partial Schoerner leak earlier where a dev said that it was too shit to leak and that it was just a worse version of Goering that never got off the ground.

At some point you have to wonder why the devs even bother. They're hated by most of the HOI4 community outside of their own territory and most people don't even want what they make or believe any of it'll release. Is it just a sunken cost fallacy thing?

I've been critical of a lot of changes before, but this seems like a pretty nice flowchart. I honestly like it quite a bit, I would actually play this tag if it came out, it isn't like the average wiki-scrape that they usually end up shipping.
>>
>>
>>2422120
It's telling that the only complaints it got were
>It isn't playable
>The world around it sucks
It's not their fault that they're stuck dealing with shit like a mini cold war between America and a third world ally with a demo. Then again the LATAM team are the most solid guys on the team. It actually looks like they took all the criticism they got over Mexico to heart. Too bad the rest of the mod's made by overgrown children with political brain rot.
>>
>>2422131
Ok, so basically it's an evolution of the current flowchart, not really a complete rework. It keeps Castro Mexico-aligned, but he can get removed from power by the US and become an actual democracy.
The most interesting changes are as follow:
Castro, like irl, will engage in as many proxies as humanly possible, eventually antagonizing the US.
In 1970, Iberia and Italy will try to mirror Puerto Plata. The rebels will take some island next to the coast of Cuba and free the political prisoners there, who can take over the rebellion and make it become pro-US. Otherwise, reactionaries will keep being at the forefront.
At the end of this conflict, there are many possible paths. In my opinion, the most interesting are Castro's, who can keep the Mexican model of governance or turn left and become more socialist.
Some rebel paths seem fun too, but I think there's a bit of redundancy there.
>>
>>
>>
>>2422163
I didn't really mind. The lore is nothing incredible but it can theoretically work.
Mexican content wasn't popular because it was a pretty short demo in terms of years but filled to the brim with useless events, so the pacing was really bad.
It also didn't help that it was released as a stand alone update.
>>
If there's a thing devs should be doing is stop framing country demos as content updates.
You cannot say that you're proud to announce 3 years of content for Fiji while the content for Italy is still the way it is.

It can't work because no one cares about Mexico. It's just authoritarian social democracy against various shades of liberal democracy. There are no stakes. It doesn't help that even if you cared can't play it from Mexico's perspective past the demo so it's just Mango's America being comically evil whenever that rework drops and I can't ever play the better-designed Cuba because it'll never be playable. See the problem? If they wanted to make a Mexico that was an adversary to America they shouldn't just have made it OTL Mexico. Lots of wasted potential ruined by the setting being completely neutered by the nudevs.
>>2422185
Wait until you see all the Fijis in DV. We're past the test run - get ready for an avalanche of single pixel island tags with their own leaders.
>>
>>2422227
It makes sense. The PRI was already in power by 1929 and they are not really enemies with the US, only geopolitical rivals.
As for the stakes, it's not between Authoritarian Socdems vs Conservatives, but to set the party line.
The choices are between the IRL candidate (who is a very vindictive and petty person with a very low self steem who took every form of protesting as an attack against himself), a pro-capitalist technocrat who wants to align with Japan to undermine the US and a sort of idealist internal reformer who has to come to terms with reality.
It isn't bad material, it was just a matter of execution.
>>
>>2422243
It doesn't matter that the world's most boring thing makes sense if it's still the world's most boring thing. So what if they were in power in 1929? Make them lose power. Have their power be threatened. Change ANYTHING. But no, we get OTL Mexico down to a fault where they copied things so lazily from our timeline that it loops back to being unrealistic nonsense. It's all so bland and boring, there's no passion. And the stakes feel like having countries in the EU bicker about trade agreements or something. Sure it isn't unimportant but it doesn't exactly make for riveting content.
By the way yes I realize that they can't just have Mexico change so don't bother writing that reply in case you or anyone else were going to. I know it wouldn't make any sense in a timeline where America is largely just OTL and most consequences of the Axis victory in WW2 for the Americas have long since been removed or are in the process of being removed. All of this being wasted potential is pretty much set in stone at this point. OTLism has ruined the mod.

>>2422287
No one cares about minor adjustments in the PRI and tacit changes to forpol that don't even amount to anything meaningful in the demo. Please stop making this argument. We know it's very close to otl and le realism. It'd be better if it wasn't that kind of creatively bankrupt slop courtesy of people who forgot that it's an alt hist piece.
>>2422290
Did you even read the post you replied to or are you just making a strawman? The problem is that it's just otl Mexico and that it's completely boring and the demo has nothing interesting unless all you care about is picking a faction leader for a corrupt democracy. It's just a lazy Wiki scrape. I like Mexico in other mods like KR and KX because they do something interesting with the country. Managing the agriculture in a third world democracy that does otlism just isn't. Please, for the love of God, get this through your head. This applies to many other tags that get endlessly shit on for being lazy otl slop where nothing ever happens. Use your imagination, at least the Cuba dev tried and did an ok job.

I think a lot of this boils down to you and the team not reading the room very well. I know this guy is making a strawman, but even a 25-75% compromise in favor of nothing ever happens would've gone a long way to make it less terrible. Instead they went all in on dry OTL politics. None of the epic cold war content between the PRI and Democrats will ever be playable anyway so why should I care about forpol that'll never materialize for me as a player even if it was good on paper?

>No one cares about minor adjustments in the PRI

>>2422330
If you just straight up refuse to understand why the PRI doing realpolitik against a liberal America is uninteresting to most HOI4 players and why it matters that the otlfest of a demo ends before anything major happens then I guess it can't be helped and you'll just have to stay completely out of touch. You have no soul and this is why TNO will continue to get mogged by other mods.

>>
>>2422316
I've said before that I don't think the execution of the demo was good because the pacing sucks.
However, you're all complaining about frankly retarded stuff. You cannot really make a "higher stakes" Mexico content because it doesn't really make sense.
What are devs supposed to do? Create a civil war between the PAN and the PRI? Invade the US to reclaim Aztlan? Become neolibertarian falangists?
I know Mexico won't be the reason people download the mod, but as long as it can serve a purpose to further geopolitical conflicts that other more mainstream countries will have, I will think that the design is alright.
>>
>>2422357
You're a creatively bankrupt moron. In the infinite blank canvas that is alternative history you looked at all the options and said: nothing happened IRL so nothing should happen here either. You can make it make sense just like you can nake the Axis victory make sense despite that being utter rubbish. You just have no interest in it because you just want to talk about otl politics.

I dont like the game. I like the mod for the game that strips it from the most characteristics that define it. What is exactly wrong with that?

And even Suzerain devs arent good at their job desu.
>>
>>2422373
Have Mexico's civil war from the flowchart take place before the game starts and have the nothing ever happens events leading up to it currently be accelerated by post-war problems with America so we can get to the interesting parts where the devs actually showed some creativity right away.
You must now guide one of the radical governments in Mexico who are at bad terms with America and good terms with a foreign backer of your choice. America now has strong incentives to oppose you, and you have to deal with both the problems posed by America being hostile to you while trying not to be dominated by your benefactor. The cold war in the region now makes sense, and going back to PRI and good ties with America is just an option among many, one that now would have more impact.
If this is unrealistic please explain to me why you believe the latter portion of the original Mexico proposal is bullshit that should be reworked.
>>
>>2422373
(nayrt)
I'm not going to talk about the setup overall, because for LATAM countries in particular it can be difficult to create a plausible alt-hist scenario as this region is the most unaffected by the WW2 outcome.
But you can try, you know, not copy-paste Wikipedia entirely like they did in the case of Mexico, even with relatively small things that are mentioned only a few times, like the 1959 railroad workers' strike.
This shit is irritating, and is the main reason for my hate towards DV, that is the pinnacle of devs' creative bankruptcy

I agree. There are just so many PoDs they could implement. The Treaty of Bucareli spirit says the Mexican Army is an onternational laughingstock that is corrupt af and barely receives any funding. So how about in 1945 the Sinarquistas, emboldened by the victory of the Axis Powers, launched a Hail Mary coup, took Mexico City, and deposed the PRI to create their own Integralist, Ultracatholic state? Nothing like that happened otl. Researching it would be a pain. But that is the "job" of an alt-history mod. To diverge from irl, because that makes it alt-history. Choosing the PRI otl path is just the path of least resistance, and feels lazy.

You people have pissed away every ounce of goodwill outside of your sycophantic discord of yesmen, and that's the reason people like you have to come here and run damage control, blaming TFR for people hating TNO when the only reason there's a perceived hate for TNO (actually hate for the devs who murdered TNO and decided to wear it as a skinsuit for their own story about OTL decolonization movements, German invincibility and how Republicans and Dixiecrats are actually worse than the Nazis, look how they nuke poor Haiti, a country the US could defeat in a conventional war in a matter of hours) is the fucking TNO dev team itself's combination of incompetence and contempt for their audience they inherited from Panzer, the one thing from early TNO they don't want to rework away.
