Country selection by player
In tournament style games I've read about you pick your country before the game starts based on a selection order. It would be nice to implement the feature on here for locked games.

How do you "leave" a game?
I've seen different games where it says "Left" on the player's line. I don't see where you can click that - there's a Pause / Cancel / Draw option, but no "Leave the game" option.

Can anyone tell me how this works?

Unpausing Games
Sorry, for the question (I'm new here), but how do you unpause games? We've all voted to pause, but when we try to vote to unpause it doesn't appear to register anyone's vote. Thanks for your help!

A Game in Different Kinds of Speak?
Anyone interested in holding a game where each nation has a different form of English to "speak with?"

Games where people have left
I think it would be a good idea for the password to be removed for when someone has left a game and will make it easier for someone to take over a game. Additionally since the new person is at a disadvantage not knowing the situation they take over a reduced fee for entry. It is very frustrating when people leave a game or NMR so making it more viable for players to take over will keep games going rather than the players next to that country taking advantage like vultures which ruins the game.

I have a pirated copy and I'm too lazy to switch to Windows and check if I can do the multiplayer thing. Anyone have any idea if it works?
Fasces349 (0 DX)
11 Mar 13 UTC
yep: heres how to play multi:
step 1 get steam
step 2 buy Crusader Kings 2
step 3 buy Sword of Islam, Legacy of Rome and The Republics DLC
step 4 ???
step 5 profit (for a deserving company) and multiplayer for you.

The only computer game I have ever pirated was Civilization 4, and that was because I broke the disk, so I had to pirate it when I bought a new computer.

I generally use piracy as a play-test before purchase, and I got bored of CKII about halfway through the game because I had conquered half of the playable world, and that led to nothing but repetitive revolts and an unacceptable amount of lag. No need to be so judgmental.

Fair enough, there have been multiple games I regretted buying. In any case if you found the game boring the first time, then why the sudden interest?
ghug (5068 D(B))
11 Mar 13 UTC
I mean, I enjoyed the first hundred years or so, and I thought adding the multiplayer aspect (and maybe some more recent bugfixes) might make it worthwhile.

Same as ghug here!
I've got version 1.07 and I don't know from the top of my head what DLC, but some DLC, and it's pirated, no steam involved, and I won't buy it just to play multiplayer...
So anyone knows if it's possible like that? I could update it if needed I suppose...

I think he means in time, playing multiplayer you rarely get past the 2-3 hour mark in a game like that, since its hard to coordinate scheduales, especially with people across different timezones.

Nah, EU3 is by far the most boring of the Paradox games. The only time I have gotten past 1480 was for a megacampaign. Peace is too boring and war is too easy.
Hellenic Riot (1626 D(G))
18 Mar 13 UTC
1399 is a bad place to start. Play Hard difficulty and start at 1453 and it's a much better game.

EU3 > VC2> HOI3 > CK2, for me.
Fasces349 (0 DX)
18 Mar 13 UTC
CK2>VK2>HOI3>EU3 for me for me. I've tried starting later, its still just as boring. I don't know why you don't like CK2, the political strategy is fun.

Anyway, I bumped this thread for Tolstoy and Airborne, so we can decide when to play this week
Hellenic Riot (1626 D(G))
18 Mar 13 UTC
I'm less into the RPG & genetics thing. I keep trying it and trying to get into it but I really struggle. If you ever want to do a VC2 multiplayer game (particularly once the next expansion comes out) I'd be up for that though.

Emancipation of the ugly person
Women, colored people, handicapped people have all been emancipated over the ages. But in Holland, the person who's presenting the 8 o'clock news (a very good looking young woman (Sascha de Boer)) is about to be replaced by another very good looking young woman (Eva Jinek). Isn't it time for someone ugly?

Dragon's Dogma & Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch PS3 Games
If you are RPG gamers, you need to get these two games. If you need some games to play, you need to get these two games. They are excellent games. My Dragon's Dogma's pawn is Katarina (sorcerer). It would be awesome if there are people from webdip who can use her and upgrade her equipment. If you have an awesome pawn, post your name/id here and I will look into it.
