Is anybody going to play this game? If so did you play Hearts of Iron 3? I played a little a bit of the second game in the series . The third game ran painfully slow on my old laptop so I was never able to give it a could go. In the previous games New Zealand was a playable country. |

Nope! "'Cos When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things."

Re: "'Cos When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things".
You are therefore a very fortunate man sir; no hobbies learned in childhood (which is where, the sociologists tell us, the 'seeds of interest' are sown), and absolutely nothing 'childish' to distract you from your day-to-day activities. Congratulations are in order, as you are indeed a very rare breed, but one has to wonder what DO you do with your 'spare' time (ie: that time when you are not at work), and how DO you avoid being 'contaminated' by any 'interests' you may have had as a child? (Serious question BTW).
Thelensofhistory: Sadly, I can't help; presumably you have tried the various game forums?

Ahhh....sociologists, those people of limited intelligence who couldn't get into University to do a real subject, but having failed to gain any knowledge of their chosen topic presume to tell anyone dumb enough to take them seriously how to live their lives. I see no hobby in childish computer games which require no ability to think, because they entertain a very small part of the brain. Pooh Bear would have loved them. Fortunate? Yes indeed I am, but not for any reasons you might understand from your somewhat erratic non-observations based on absolutely no knowledge whatsoever.Your not a Sociology 101 student are you? Congratulations? Yes, I am unique, but then aren't we all? Contaminated? Nah... I gave up self-flagellation many years ago, once I realised it was not what it was cracked up to be!  |

In view of your erudite response, what more is to be said, except thank you.

Those actually familiar with the Hearts of Iron series will find a certain comic irony in the suggestion they require "no ability to think"...
To the thread originator, I would suggest Komata's idea of trying the simulator/games forum elsewhere on the site here is a good one, it does appear to have some threads of non specifically aviation related content?

Ironic indeed.  Could a moderate move this thread? I am still finding my way around the boards. |

The game is still in Alpha. So it's still early to make a judgement call on how it will turn out. Still judging from what I have seen the game looks promising.
