When RUSSIA and Poland Fight a TOTAL WAR in EU4 Multiplayer 

Check out my VOD channel here: www.youtube.com/@absoluteHabibiLive/videos

“I was talking too many casualties, casualties I couldn’t afford” typical Russian experience tbh

In the Tinto Talks Johan said that the population system wouldnt impact performance late game and it will be smooth. I dont know if this is true or not. Recent paradox games have had bad performance on launch, and Vic3 still runs slow. But I am hopeful.

2:13 Kaluga's name would never sound more cool than this

You know historically Russians tried to use winter and attrition warfare against Poles in 1617 but it didn't work. At least not fully. People must realize that winter is the best season to wage war in Eastern Europe.

This is potentially an unpopular opinion due to the fact that HOI4 consistently has the highest player base of any Paradox Game... but I'm not sure I would like EU5 to be more similar to HOI4 in its single-player/multi-player balance. I have found that whereas most Paradox games I feel like I am consistently improving at in single-player, even after playing for hundreds or thousands of hours, HOI4 single-player is extremely underwhelming. For example, it took me around 500 hours of EU4 before I was able to get my first World Conquest, and longer than that to be able to get achievements such as True Heir of Timur. In comparison I only have about 200 hours on HOI4 total and nothing feels even remotely challenging in single-player - it is not difficult to world conquest, it's not difficult to survive against Germany as minor nations, etc. While I know HOI4 multiplayer is very fun and much more catered to than EU4 MP for example, I'd like if EU5 had a single-player experience that made me feel like I was improving with time, where HOI4 single-player you can easily win as just about any nation while mostly AFK if you know how to make a unit template. Ideally EU5 would have a positive single-player experience with significant replayability and variation (like EU4) while still having effort put into multiplayer balancing and primarily multiplayer-relevant mechanics (like HOI4). But I have a bad feeling that it will be like recent Paradox launches (CK3 and Vic3 for example, both of which I very much enjoy now but launched in incomplete forms and still need a significant amount of work to have the level of variation and enjoyment as their predecessors.)

Thumbnail is based Habibi, I was excited for this one bro

"When the winged beer bottles arrive! Coming down the production line!"

Eu5 wont have insane scaling of modifiers like eu4. So for example if you have -20% and -10% cost modifier it would be -30% in eu4 and eu5 could only let you have the best -20%. In my opinion it is a greatly needed balance so its fine

Poland be doing historical lart, first defeat Russia, second get into a bunch of wars w Sweden 3rd lose to Russia

I would say that with russia infra ideas are must: it helps so much with buildup and you really need that movement speed with how big you country is

I’m so god damn hyped with you’re more consistent uploading, I think your style of videos keep more really entertained. Have an amazing rest of 2024 and good luck with the channel

Great video man and loving the upload schedule already.

love your shit mang, hope you can keep up the 3 vids a week plan

Your videos are amazing, I can never get tired of watching them.

11:30 I wonder if you could develope a multiplayer dedicated EU4-like game. The engine OpenVic made is open for all to use and much more optimised than paradox ones. Just rebuilt a more barebones verssion of EU4 with much less bloat. Eu5 will probs run well in asingleplayer but I doubt it'll do well for MP

Bless Habibi upload

Thanks!

4 pm in France, I'm fully drunk but god damn I was waiting this video, I miss your eu4 multi video so much you are such a good man. Love you from France and maybe my little bit of portughese blood

How it is possible that you realise videos from multiple houses of multiplayer games every day? It is just amazing. P.S. please release other players from your basement.

Wholesome habibicore video

habibi could you start leaving the soundtrack you use in the videos in the description?

I sure hope EUV give the genre a much needed boost to new players

Great battle and the time are so familiar to history book.

Wooooo!

that ottoman color is just perfect

EUV will probably be on a new engine, which means despite more technically demanding assets in the game it will still run better than EUIV.

The worst part about this campaign is that it isn't going to the end. You were just about to start smacking everyone around.

i love you habibi

I think you could do a commentary video on EU 5 but wait for more Tinto Talks

Nice

I LOVE EU4

Comment :D Habibi really managed to do three videos in a week :D

YEEEEEESSSSSSS HELL YEEHH

I recognize the victoria 2 music

every time i see you with your beard shaven, you look like a cartoon character

please make a video qbout what you would like to see in eu5! i would really appreciate that.

Yeah! Chat with us on EU4. I'd love to hear more of your thoughts.

I think it would be better at a place like 2:10 if you dident say how the battle was going to end, it seems like a micro spoiler that cuts the tension of your play

regarding whether eu5 will be multiplayer friendly, i dont really think it will, it might have a really similar relationship to vic2 and vic3, its not even about the balancing of multiplayer, since mods easily fix that issue

Apparently the pop system doesnt cause much lag in vic3 and its gonna be much simpler in eu5. The pops (and the trade in vic3) use extremely simple math thats nice to the cpu. Ai making decisions for example is much harder on the cpu which is why for example ck3 lategame is so slow (tons of created characters and dynasty members cause the lag). At least this is my current understanding

Consistent Habibi is truly a blessing

I've emailed PDX because they didn't even bother adding a text chat to their last 3 "multiplayer" games, and they essentially said that they consider the multiplayer community like a small fringe group of "hardcore" players, which means( to me ) they would never consider us at all from a business standpoint because they expect us to buy whatever they sell, so they make their games for the casuals and if they get to it they might add a dlc or patch for us.

Does anyone know who the Burma player was and if he streams or something because i like playing in India and would asbolutely want to see what he did to be no.1 gp as Burma

Halal content during this halal time of month.

What mod are you using?

Maybe im in the minority here but i really like the late game campaing, of course the lags are making it difficult to enjoy however my point is that in the late game every opponent is so filthy rich that you've got to concentrate rather on your manpower reserves to maintain a war rather than time you've left until bankruptcy. Of course you can fight much over your force-limit and bankrupt anyways

When Uzbek campaign comes out

Paradox have you heard this?

What is a stab hit

Let eu5 cook!

What mod you are using?

to be honest, i dont think eu5 will be multiplayer-friendly, the new mechanics seem to be pretty heavy cpu wise. maybe we will see the MP players sticking to eu4. but honestly, as a meiou & taxes guys, i really prefer it this way, for two reasons: 1 - they already said this will be more "simulator not game", so MP will probably be SO unbalanced and hard, you prob couldnt micro all the mechanics at the same time, not even counting that the build up will be WAAAY slower without manapoints 2 - making this type of game better for MP uforntunaly may make it less deep of an experience for SP, and i really hope they just focus on SP, since has the potential to be one of the deepest and most fun strategy games ever love from Brazil habibi

Do you think colonial Great Britain or Portugal can out mscale Russia?

Victoria 2 music

As your viewer and a Pole who should I root for? 😆

!

Is there going to be a project zomboid video? 0_0

Even if EUV is an emulation of CK3, empty, poorly designed, laggy as f*ck etc... People will still buy it and Paradox will continue milking the herd...

How was burma that strong? Development?

Nive russian videos love them

Bro it was last session and you should’ve went for uncon on Poland

what about play for ottomans?

Can you talk about tinto talks

Considering Russian provinces have severe winter +2 attrition modifier everywhere and long distances thus longer exposure to that attrition eu4 is actually good about attrition game, I tried many times against both China and Poland and while they are killing themselves in my frontier forts and scorched provinces with even more exposure time I waited in urals, but most players don’t do that they are like Hannibal very good at tactics but lacking strategy, aka patience

Hey habibi I get the wholesome chungus "lets just have fun" meme. The thing is... I don't care if you have fun. I want to see map painting taken to its' most toxic extreme. I want you to backstab and be evil and min max to 1# GP along the way. I want people to stop liking you personally because of how sweaty you get. You may not like that I'm saying this, but it is the most entertaining content.

I still need to say: Stabhitting via just continuing to send peace deals are BS.

First

People are hyped about EU 5 but forget that it will need a year or two of DLC's before it becomes good just like every paradox game.

Pls pin habibi

no polish win? no like

You know.. i never supported pirating.. i always judged people for doing it, but considering where games are going nowadays, I might reconsider and just start pirating PI games... I'm not dropping $200+ for dlcs anymore, especially for the hot steaming dung PI has been dropping these past 5 years.

Do more MP videos with longer format! They are so much fun and don't be afraid of including scaling. Like I wanna know each click you do without watching full VOD, and why you do as you do including estates.
