I ask myself.
I didn't know a thing about this game or how to play this game.
Youtube recommends this video to me.
I watched it till the end at 4 am. and enjoy it.
What the hell am I doing?
Germany: fighting against half the world
Switzerland: "Scheint gut."
4:45 Finland about to pull a pro gamer move.
Meanwhile Turkey : Honey can you bring me a cup of tea I'm gonna sit on the sofa and watch the world and do nothing
Winstons strike at "the soft under belly" worked this time around…
I see Cambodian Divisions on the Alps???
6:22 why the hell are there two Frances, both of witch are in the allies?!
On HOI expert the Faroe Islands gets invaded by Italy at one Point and the Spanish helping liberate Norway. Interesting!
smart to name a mod for one strategy game after another strategy game
Turkey and Switzerland: Ah good movie.
Video: Total War AI
Me: fucking autoresolve! wait a minute…
Total War Finland. Impressive.
AXIS TO SWITZERLAND: ZERO FUCKS
This is why I never invite Italy into the Axis. Same with Japan. When I loose as Germany. It always ether Japan bring the US into the war and they stomp all over Italy.
Turkey : Relax 😀
нифига не понял, но очень интересно…
Funny, in my playthrough, all of Europe fell to Czechoslovakia, North Ameica and half of Asia belongs to Japan and Soviet Union is sitting there, midning its own business. Now Czechoslovakia is in process of conquering Africa while Japan takes hold of South America. Once that happened… true World War will start. XD
Every timelapse is much better with Static X
It pains me to see that France loses in both cases
I look away and boom…. where’s Norway
Conclusion: The allies should’ve play Total War
i have NO clue what is happening
the Expert mod essentially showed what would have happened had Germany not rushed so hard into Russia, and had properly turtled up against the russians and allies, honestly had they not been fooled with the landing of normandy and hadn't pushed so stupidly against the Russians then they probably could have won the war, or at least held off long enough for a treaty to be made…if nukes hadn't become a thing that is.
hey um, what about the civil war between Spain and Catalonia? 1936-1939. irrelevant i see? maybe the IA would win the war without the human factor.
Can anybody give a good description of the various differences between these ai mods?
After viewing the video, the first thing that comes to my mind is that Total war seems to spread it's garisson more effectively instead of spreading them to defend pointless areas.
It also seems to limit alot of the pointless movement, back and forth, and reorganizing that the AI would usually do.
germany in total war:oh no italy fell ima send some units to help
ussr:WELL THEN ITS TIME TO VRUUUUUM
in summary total war is more action paced, expert ai is more stalemate. feels like expert ai has trenches in all fronts. i like how expert ai is slowing enemy down and trying its best but in a rt56 play i think it would be boring to watch.
company of heroes 2 music xd
The problem(in both total war and vanilla) that ai doesnt put any division to Defend Coast and it makes it super easy to Naval Invade A country.
total war is the best historical mod for hoi4 change my mind
Total war ai lose because they don’t help Italy!
Amazing how the Total War USSR managed to violently steamroll Germany despite being in a more desperate situation than IRL.
can we turn of historical? been thee done that i just want a random world completely
What does total war do
The totalwar mod end was so awesome, the d-day was in the timming to split the Europe between then and in the soviets, this was so beautiful, but the peace treaty of hoi4 is a fucki** border gore
whats the meaning of total war? does it mean all nations go to war immeadilly
I have watched alot of these and so far never seen one that was historical with finland
game version
First half goes to Total War. Also seems like i’ve missed some stuff in my geography classes. Soviet full invasion of Finland, then Finland joins the allies? And i’ve never heard of the naval invasion of Rome 😂 then advancing up into Vichy France and no Normandy. Good first half, but deeply degrades in 1941 and onwards. Good mod but needs alot of work.
October 1, 1942, 8:00
Germany: “Oh no, we’re dead”
Italy: “You’re*”
Fickin italy, every time
Both were shit
Me for no reason, rooting for the axis throughout the entire video: 😑😑😑
HoI4: Germany becomes a fucking brick wall like always
HoI4TW: Wow actually realistic????
no offense to anybody but total war is a shitty mod, while trying to get itself complicated, it is not good at it. and it also forces you to go "historical" u cant do anything to change time but going on with it
This mod is pain
