  • Thank you to Paradox for giving me early access which allowed me to get this video out to you guys so early. I hope it's informative. Like I said in the video, I have no idea what the new airplane meta is going to be like. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments or on my discord though.
    To help with justifying my time investment in making these youtube videos, I have created a patreon page where you can, if you want to, support my endeavors. I'll try to make it worth your while as well with interesting, unique, more personal content - you can find the link below!

    Before anyone mentions it: There are two modules I didn't mention. Minesweeping and minelaying can be found at the bottom of the Naval tech tree. You can also find plane cannons under AT gun research.

    I really enjoyed this video dude. You were clear and easy enough to understand that even the most seasoned noob could understand. Thank you for the help and best wishes to you and your family😊, game on!!!!! from Canada buddy 🇨🇦!!!!!!.
    P.s. you earned my subbed, hope it helps.
    Edit: would you be able to do a video showing how to make and use air wings. If you can’t tell I’m a boob at the game lol

    Great explanation on your part, but I feel that not being able to get close air support early game weakens already vulnerable nations even more. One of the best things about hoi4 is that you can build up and do well as even the most shitty nation. I hope they fix this cause many low power nations rely on CAS so much early game

    Was there anything for designing Transport Planes, specifically increasing their range? The standard range is simply too short for certain areas of the world due to not being able to decide where airfields are built in a state.

    I've been playing base HoI for a while, and I finally decided to try out the DLC subscription. The new features are cool, but one thing is driving me absolutely nuts: I don't like the way the planes are described as "light airframe" and "medium airframe". Same with tanks and ships, although with ships it's a little easier. Is there a way to rename those things?

  • @barnykirashi
    @barnykirashi Před rokem

    So, I've been wondering if we can use different sprites for the different planes?
    I don't want my Ju-87s to look like Bf-109s, given they use the same airframe.

    • @bigschmokes
      @bigschmokes  Před rokem +1

      I honestly don't know. PDX state they updated a bunch of sprites. Unsure if we have any influence over it though.

    Hello. I would like to know your opinion about my idea. First of all i am a big fun of the Hoi4 as the historical accuracy in the planes and tanks. Due to this i would like to see the real designs before i start to modify them. So, when you are open a new frame you should get some basic design which are accurate. For example Basic airframe open the Me109 and Ju-87 -for Germany- and you can produce them straight away. The program give you their module and players could enjoy the original names and designs. It is a bit annoying when you build a medium tank and the program link it with the model of an AA...

    • @bigschmokes
      @bigschmokes  Před rokem

      In a lot of cases you do get those designs. Afaik there is currently a glitch in the tank designer that just keeps assigning the wrong models. I started assigning them manually because it bothers me too.

      No. So there's a new feature where when stats are mission specific, you only see it when you hover over the mission in the designer tab.
