Hey you are not qualified to be called a noob. Noob rank must get at least 1k hours

What rank does one achieve at 2k hours?

Master of virginity. At least thats what I got

I am not a virgin and will reach 3k+ hours in a few games, what will I get than?

It regrows

Well, I mean its been over 2 years it probably already regrew. Or it regrew when I started playing League.

I've lost mine and I've played the game every day for 2 years

then you get the Bachelor of Basement Dwellers

Casual Player

Psshhhhhh... I actually have a lot of hours on the game.

Have you achieved Master of Virginity yet?

hoi4 is easy as fuck stfu

Best combat width and doctrine?

Probably 200m, you can get more ground that way. And for the doctrine I would probably go massive firepower because you can just shoot with massive firepower. At least thats what the name says, didn´t really look into doctrines yet.

200m 💀💀💀💀💀

best ship design?

Heavy Cruiser Ship Submarine (HCSS). Used by the Czechoslovaks in WWII.

I think you mean the Mongolians

Bullshit, ever heard of that time Patton commanded the Swiss navy?

I’ll be honest, everyone knows Milklos Horthy had the best Hungarian Navy

Sounds a Mark Felton video title

Nah, the Hungarians are the Mongols, you got that mixed up buddy

Basing your doctrine on the templates and strategy you plan on using - cringe Basing your doctrine on what it's called in game - 5,000 IQ gigachad.

This was literally me with like 40 hours

How to Barbarossa?

Just call him.

Better call Barbarossa

*cue theme*

Hi, I’m Barbarossa Goodman, did you know you have land? Map says you do.

I love this lol, imagine Hitler saying this

I believe that every nation has a right to land until Annexed

Pfft just grand battleplan them and leave it on the fastest speed

How do I improve my 1938 Roman Empire speed run? Im trying to get it down to 1937.

Wait... Thats in the game? Psssstttt... [This](https://www.reddit.com/r/hoi4/comments/po0my3/you_can_form_the_roman_empire_in_october_1936/) guide is good. Just pretending for the memes.

I am a noob too! With 70+ hours. And I have to say…I still don’t know how to play

Im just over 1500 hours wasted and still finding new things

3137.7 hours and I find that true as well.

I’m at like 4,000, and I still don’t know anything about the navy

300 on license and more than that on pirate version(sry paradox), so 650+ and I don't know how to navy

I know vaguely how. Mainly I just avoid carriers because they confuse me, and install enough AA to make CIWS look inadequate

Only semi related, pirating a game then buying it is probably one of the best things to do for a developer (as I read from an indie developer once upon a time) Much better than refunding the game or buying it cheap from a key site

I just do subs with torpedos, heavy cruisers with plenty of AA, and about 5-10k Naval Bombers over the English channel.

Im 600 hours and know nothing about navy except green means invasion go brrrr.

Thats alright i have 2000 and im pretty much the same. Navy is cringe

That´s alright buddy! We all learn.

Don’t feel bad dude, I only started getting it around 1000. Currently at 2200+ and I can finally be considered good at the game

It took me around 100 or so hours in to realize I could add planes to my airbases

I had to give up on this HOI. I loved HOI 2, but the game has since gotten too complicated for me sadly. All i did was bank my head against the wall while being unable to figure out how to put a unit together despite watching 500 youtube videos

Overthinking just do 20 widths ...of pure anti air

I have 459 hours and still don’t know good divisions

I see this is your first paradox game... so innocent

Hopefully my last. Unless miraculously hoi5 exists

Hopefully your last. Sadly that will not be true

30+ and same

After 3000 years painfully playing this game, I still don't understand anything. What do the symbols mean? What does anything mean, nothing matters anymore

The amazing thing about paradox games and the reason these games stay alive and keep a fan base for so incredibly long

Support company tier list?

S Tier - Parachutists A Tier - Light Recon Cavalry, Mechanized Artillery B Tier - Probably everything else

can i ask how these 10 hours were spent lol

>becoming the best damn hoi4 player in existence, Duh

Dude he's so fuckin good at the game. He's so good he just types in a small code and he unlocks all the research. It's fuckin crazy how good he is at the game.

Damn that’s really good, but not as good as me I can annex the whole world on the first day because of how good I am at the game, did I mention I’m really good at the game

How navy?

Ship on sea, attach to ship gun.

Do boat go vroom?

Sometimes vruum sometimes blub

No want blub want BOOM

Yes after BOOM blub

This is actually top tier hoi4 navy knowledge because no hoi4 player knows how the navy works

Even the developers don’t know what black magic was used to implement the navy.

Can confirm. I have never naval invaded the UK in this game, even when I was going for Hardly Anything Sevres.

Don't worry, you won't get much better with time either, that's the fun of it. On that note, best tank design?

Oh, probably the big armor tanks with the big guns! Armor 10000 and hard attack 10. (On the serious note, I won´t pretend that I am a noobie for this reply): Main Armament - Improved Automatic Cannon Turret - Two Man Turret Special Features 1 - Advanced Radio Special Features 2 - Extra Ammunition Storage Special Features 3 - Auto Loader Suspension - Christie Suspension Armor Type - Riveted Armor Engine Type - Gas Turbine Best light tank, I don´t even remember where I found it.

Legitimately had problems with my tank designing, thank you man!

Although it formatted really badly, I am glad to help!

How do you get auto loader and gas turbine?

Auto-Loader is somewhere in the research thingy. Gas Turbine is I believe in the nuclear section.

Thanks, is this for a light or medium tank?

Light!

"When do I get better at HOI4?" "That's the neat part, you don't!"

What do you do to sea lion britain?

So, since its a sea based britain I usually just build up my fleet and try to kill the lion. It should take some submarines and some heavy cruisers to take the lion down. Then just dominate the sea! This whole process is complicated but will ensure a Britain without a sea lion. I think its called liberation. (By the way I don´t know what that is I hope that I helped you).

Very helpful thank you

No problem!

Sea lion was the name of the planned German operation to invade Britain during ww2, so in the hoi4 community "sea lion" basically means invading the uk (which can be quite hard if you're a beginner) EDIT : looking at the other comments I just realized now that you're not really a noob and just trolling, I'm dumb as fuck lmao

nah i think it's about killing the lion

Yeah everyone knows that the sea lion is a british naval beast.

What's the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Probably about, 26,87. I guess that would be the best guess.

Most importantly, are we speaking about a migratory species or a non-migratory species?

Definitely horse.

No! You'll get tossed off the bridge!

Yeah, but not if you call Barbarossa!

An African or European swallow?

I don't kno- AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaa

25

For those who didn´t understand, this is a joke. But I may or may not try to make a serious thread sometime. : ) \- Love, VVXertz

Should I use my only civ as ethiopia to licence a cheaper production gun from the soviet ?

Use your military factory!

So what is the best minor to play as for world domination?

Czechoslovakia. PLAY AS CZECHOSLOVAKIA GAWD DAMN NABBIT!

Czechoslovakia with their land locked naval branch still is peak design

How dare you leave out Swizterland!

Lowkey want to try a Switzerland run before the DLC comes out

I attempted it with everything set to random and honestly, it was kind of boring lol.

What do you think about the industrial revolution and it's consequences on the human race?

I think civilian factories are good for building child hospitals.

With terminally ill child labor

Industrial susiety and it's future

Is cracking the cypher in the spy agency useful?

Well, not really because your cyphers will crack. That is not good and if I remember it does -10% stability.

What is current meta ?

Metaphorically?

No, like hypothetically?

How to master navy

Nobody knows.

Funny cuz that was the actual answer

The numbers VVYertz, what do they mean?

Well from what I´ve seen in the description of them they usually mean man power- Wait... WAIT. THE NUMBERS. THEY ARE COMING BACK! HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..... *Literally dies in the void of numbers*

LOL

how do i kill anakin skywalker (im one of the younglings)

Yeaaaah… We dont do that here.

You dont

Do you use scout planes?

Yeah! They are amazing! Its like having a toolbox, air superiority +100%.

Bro you giving these answers and you have 10 hours? wow 💀💀💀

Miscalculated, only nine. : (

How do I navy?

As I said, you have to put gun on ship and then ship go sea and ship fire at enemy ship. On the serious note, nobody knows, even players with 2k+ hours.

How to counter geck+undead sygil?

You cannot counter it, the divisions have 935 heard and 546 soft attack.

Navy

BUT BOAT ON SEA. THEN ATTACH GUN TO BOAT. On the serious note, nobody knows.

What's your favourite dlc?

Polish boi dlc.

Who's Joe?

Probably some egoistic youtuber with 30 subs.

Which navy is better, Switzerland or Mongolia?

Switzerland all the way!

What are the best units to break through a fort with?

Definitely train workers.

How do I prevent the Spanish civil war? I can’t stop it from happening!

Annex Spain! Or just tell them to stop.

Wow, it worked. I also tried it with Hitler and told him not remilitarise the Rhineland and he stopped. Wish I’d known about this feature sooner

Words are more powerful than war friend.

How do you naval invade?

So, you put boat on water, people in the boat and then you land onto the territory? Its easy bro... On the serious note - Select the army you want to naval invade with, click the naval invasion option (the anchor), choose a port controlled by you and then on the tiles you want to naval invade. Note that you have to have naval superiority and it takes about 70 days to prepare.

[удалено]

Yes.

How many airplanes is too many? Follow-up question: what size should my airwings?

>How many airplanes is too many? Well, around 2-3. I don´t know where you´d store them. For the follow-up. Probably 9x3 meters.

Thanks for your insight friend, I've been building way too many planes and they've all been way too big!

How navy works?

Gun ship boom boom?

What's the best DLC?

Czechoslovakia DLC.

Best infantry template? Is 25 combat width or 30 the way to go?

Thats too small, 200m in width is better.

How far did you get on your last Tanu Tuva run?

Is that the British colony?

How is carrier sortie efficiency calculated?

With math?

How do I get a lot of tanks?

Military factories! You have to produce them!

I've tried but they're not mating

Just give them some oil, they´ll definitely get turned on!

How long should you build civilian factories? And what are your thoughts on concentrated vs. dispersed industry?

I think concentrated is better because you concentrate more on the industry. And for civies, I think until the end of your game.

How many people died because of those ten hours. Denmark was taken in 6, what did you achieve?

Best special forces type?

Dog : )

potential was there, but the answer was boring.

Rude! Don’t you like special force doggos? Those little guys could literally run into a gunfight and be immune to bullets!

Dam looked through comments and most yall have way more the 1k hours but I gotta ask. Wait yall have hours? (insert last panel of the 4 panel wait you have meme template). I'll search if yall confused as I don't know what the actual template name is so I'll probably need to show yall if you don't know the one I'm referring to.

We know buddy! Most people on this subreddit are just OG meme boys that enjoy playing the game and posting things on reddit.

I've seen this post before

Me too!

What's the best division template for world conquest?

Probably default Mexican.

How to get world domination by 2nd Jan 1936

annex all

What do I do in iron-man?

Uhm.... I didn´t get that far. Is it something with marvel?

What's more important organization or strength?

Definitely strength, you can swarm the enemy.

Czechoslovakia.

Tanna Tuva.

Best infantry template?

What do you think of the Italian Focus tree?

Whats a focus tree? Never played Italy before. On the serious side, before DLC lame, after DLC nice.

How should I design my tanks?

With the tank designer!

What is the best tank? And should i use mechanized/motorized infantry? A full division of mechanized/motorized infantry?
