>Player Led Peace Conferences
Effectively mandatory for all playthroughs where scripted peaces aren’t a factor. Puts (you) in total control of the peace proceedings so post-war Europe/Asia looks pretty.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=846066944

>Toolpack
Gives the player a togglable menu to change party popularity, give buildings, transfer states and annex, etc. Great for getting yourself/an AI country out of trouble, or fixing bordergore.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2913150560

>Better AI
Swaps the stock AI package for one that is much more aggressive, and gives them in-game stat buffs. Best for people who think base HOI4 is too easy. Not compatible with mods that also change the AI/unit types.

>Industrial Expansion
Adds 5 new building types to refine steel, aluminum, tungsten, chromium and coal. Adds a new infrastructure type of the same name as the mod, adding building slots the more IE is built.

And now, the news!
————
TFR put out more teasers.
There was some TNO drama about a lead threatening a troon into self harm but it was a nothingburger apart from some LARPy coverup attempt.
Red Dusk and some other mods had updates.
People are laughing at TNO because it's still unplayable while both reduxes fixed their builds.

Calm start of the year.
If you don't count TFR trying to breach containment in Minnesota.

Note to the guy that made this pic: add TWP/Strasserists and Blood Tribe for NSM in the Others section.

>The Enclave was killing Vault Dwellers ever since FO2
Yeah, I mentioned them experimenting on an outgroup no matter the lack of rads in my post. Though I do personally have an issue with how the Enclave is presented even in FO2 sometimes, like with the intro which the devs themselves say is strange. That being said, Anderson being a mentally ill egghead is completely fine and I know about the planned alternate paths, I'm leaning military. I am just commenting on my own interpretation of the Enclave rather then saying "THIS IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE!!!". I understand very well why most modders and Bethesda themselves won't lean into a possible race angle with the Enclave for example. Nowhere in the lore does it state they care about skin colour but I just think there is something to explore there similar to the other factions with the Legion and women and the NCR and mutants. You have a group who would be, conceptually, of essentially entirely WASP stock and do nothing with that. This "evil Fascist dictatorship" has total sex and racial equality despite their grandfathers fighting a borderline ethnic war against the Chinese.

Good idea, go do that. Put that big "major updates" toozer on the side for proof.
Actually, do this: take that toozer, pull out the updates and put the paths next to them, then put all the unannounced updates in a different part.

Army of God submod pushed out another toozer.

>>2329566
I don't really trust that image, and I think using a supposedly leaked developer roadmap could cause some problems.

I'm only going to be including stuff that has been teased to everyone (not just supporters) or has been confirmed by the developers themselves in places such as #ask-a-dev

I've updated the 1.1 list and I'm working on the upcoming content list right now, expect it soon.

>>2329575
>don't really trust that image
That image correctly predicted three updates (Kaliningrad Animal, Rapture, Elysium) and you STILL don't trust it?
>and I think using a supposedly leaked developer roadmap could cause some problems.
Listen, everything that's leaked here is leaked for a reason, and it never makes it out of here. Point is, don't sweat it, just add it.

>>2329602
it's old and plans change

>>2329575
>I don't trust it despite it being demonstrably correct several times it's a total hoax

>>2329603
>Despite being a hoax it's also real but also wrong because it could change in the future

>>2329603
First off: four updates, I completely forgot about Red Dawn.
Second off: have you ever seen that the plans and updates deviated from the pic? I personally never did, and I'm pretty sure that an overwhelming majority of anons ITT have never seen such a thing either, so why not add it?

>>2329603
Idea guy AKA OP here, >>2329607 and >>2329609 are right. That toozer never betrayed us, so why should it now?

>>2329602
Ah shit, yeah: I thought The Rapture was announced in the Svetov teaser back last year but you're right, the image got the update name correct.

I didn't really trust the image originally because it got some stuff wrong about Kaliningrad Animal (there was supposedly going to be a small post 2ew tree or something). But that could be attributed to the update being terribly rushed and content being axed last minute.

Very well then, someone send the roadmap image and I'll add them into the list, which is nearly complete.

Thank you, I'll try and put down everything on here.

>>2329629
This is what I believe as well, I think Rapture is the next update, maybe it will release alongside Dark Maga.

Also, about Katz: Apparently his path is being added in his own update called "Honor for All".

Anyone got that old paid toozer for the pre war atomwaffen focus tree?

>>2329625
3/4 of the things promised in that image was not added in the Kaliningrad Animal update. We really shouldn't trust this toozer.

You can maybe use it to get an idea on what might get added, just don't use it as "THIS IS ALL COMING TRVST THE PLAN"
shit is gonna get cut or delayed, it isn't a public roadmap anyway. seems more like an internal plan.

>>2329655
That's because 1.0.8 was so fucking botched that Red Dawn doesn't even work. However, the content is currently being developed by RU-TFR.
>>2329660
The plan was trusted, and toozers were given. And where there's toozers, there's content.

>>2329660
I think they've done well enough so far to prove that they don't deserve do be distrusted like the TNO devniggers.

>>2329665
That roadmap was made before the CN team got nuked and from all the recent leaks it's evident that the ziggas are working on Nick Land's China and not Russia.

LIST OF ALL (CONFIRMED/RUMORED) UPCOMING CONTENT TO THE FIRE RISES

Sorry it took so long, I had to start all over again because I accidentally forgot to save, but here it is:

All information has been sourced from teasers, developer statements and leaks from here.

I haven't included everything from that leaked roadmap for various reasons, (some aren't really that significant and one path has been stated to never be a thing).

I will update this if anything is incorrect/inaccurate, enjoy the image.

You forgot all the unreleased content for Kaliningrad Animal and Red Dawn.

>>2329674
I'll change the wording to make it more clear.

>>2329675
That stuff isn't really that significant, and there's only so much I can put on here anyways.
Personally, I think they'll just add that missing content when Rapture releases.

Now with upcoming Second Chinese Civil War factions.

>>2329681
Did they even confirm that France is getting totally reworked? I think the devs just said that Lafayette will be getting a face behind the mask + overall expansion. Idk about the whole of France.

>>2329447
>why the mods did not delete that thread huh, faggot?
Because this is 4chan, retard.

>>2329691
They've said that they're going to be removing the tag switching for the French Civil War and when mentioning the Lafayette rework they say that "Europe stuff is still far away".
Personally, I think that this kind of confirms a France rework is coming in 1.3

Nevertheless, I'll add an asterisk next to France just because that content is so far off all we really have is rumors.

>>2329696
Yeah, I say its very 50/50 and we dont know much beyond that, all of 1.3 is under an asterisk since all we know that its going to be coming after 1.2, but thats about it.

https://youtu.be/AUzcgRzsIYc

>>2329332
>Five minutes to 1.1 edition
qrd for someone living under a rock since december, is the update out Soon TM?

>>2329715
For Russia:
Wagner is already in game, albeit barebones and hidden behind a gamerule.
Kvatchkov is also in game but his only purpose now is to be a transitional leader for Dugin to take over. As for the Nazbols, there's been a rumour for a while that they come to power if JR-FT loses the european war.
Once again, this is all speculation.

For China:
The developers are being intentionally vague about that whole fiasco, so I don't think anyone outside the dev team really knows what's going on.

Then again it isn't like TFR to completely axe upcoming content without good reason, the only examples of that were the original Dark Maga tree (replaced with a better version) and the Special Forces Doctrine (got fucked over by the recent doctrine revamp)

>>2329721
Probably not, It's definitely coming this year though.
I've got my money on a July 4th release date.

like for fucks sake Eques wasnt reworked since 2016

>>2329715
Looks nice. Nothing too boring and at decent wars early enough.

TGWR seems to be imploding rn, the dev team have been doxxed and one of them decided to quit modding because of the dox and threats, other devs became extremely sensitive and warned that talking about the drama will get you instantly banned, hope their mod die soon .

>>2329755
Could it be because this Youtuber made a video about them?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4an13ppH4Bs

>>2329755
Who doxxed them?

>>2329764
From what the devs claims it's Errorlog, the guy who made the vid about them a few days ago, there's also a dev from another WWI mod that's apparently set to release in a few weeks who released a 20-minutes long video showcasing the TGRW lead-dev calling randoms as-well as his own devs retards dozens of time and doing genocide denial, that video is age restricted because of that tho .

>>2329762
Doubt it if it's real, the drama there goes back at least several months. The guy's a total fag too. Half the video is of him whining about slurs and when doing his botched interview with Mango he retracted most of his original video and said he liked Antarctica after all. If drama happened it's unlikely to be because of someone like that.

I have to say, but I really don't like this guy. He seems like the type who will eventually get high on his ego and send his fans to raid servers of mods he doesn't like. Plus his retarded "holy crusade against revisionism" shtick is really stupid. His fans are already the types to spam gore and cp, why the fuck would any big mod want to be near his fanbase, with that information in mind?
He's already super close to being a lolcow anyways, his interview with Mango was a nothingburger because he didnt prepare, and he doesnt even stick to his own viewpoints about "crusading against reworks/revisionism" since he didnt press Mango on any actual critical questions or points. All in all, nothing good is gonna come out of this guy beyond more drama. Hes eventually gonna get himself doxxed or his channel deleted if he keeps it up, I bet my left asscheek that he gets himself into some really stupid shit or goes after the wrong guy somehow.

>>2329774

Also it's not just that he didn't prepare he did it at 4am, was practically sleeping through it and just let Mango walk all over him. Legit TNO's biggest W in ages.

>>2329779
I refuse to believe that the faggot who got mogged by Mango in an interview is the type of person to send his fans on raids where they spam CP.

>>2329788
He did tell people to go there. It could just be that he made people feel like picking a fight with them. Doubt it's intentional but he's definitely responsible on some level though probably not by intent.

I think its moreso the fact that some of his fans belong to the category that raid with CP, but yeah, he doesnt seem to know what type of fanbase he's created already. As if being owned by Mango of all people in an interview you didnt prepare for wasnt embarrasing enough.
>>2329787
Apparently in one of his community posts, he said he received a DM from Mango at 4AM, and decided to do the interview right there and then. What kind of fucking retard doesnt prepare a little first?

>>2329775
It's a vid from a newly created channel that has 83K views (and growing) about a mod with 320K subscribers on steam, it may not be the start of the drama, but I think it's safe to say it has rekindled it. The whole TNO fuck-up happened after the TGWR vid, if it'll have an impact remains to be seen.
Anyway, he's denying any guilt on the doх part, made a post about it on YT, I don't entirely understand his wording desu

It's basically copium for losing ground used by losers in wars since time immemorial.

Another banger is when they pretend that putting older tanks in the rear or for artillery service meant that "Russia had run out of tanks". Well for one, I'm 100% sure that Ukraine used tanks in similar roles, and that they performed very well. Secondly, it just makes sense to put potent but outdated tanks further away where they can still help, just not withstand modern firepower. If an actual ACW happened, you can bet your ass that older vehicles like the M60 would absolutely find perfectly viable uses, and that it wouldn't be "because the feds ran out of tanks" or something like that.

Sorry, these Redditor memes just make me ree.

No, retards. Monetizing a volunteer project to force our devs to make more content only achieves the opposite effect (namely, ruining all motivation for devs to work due to crunch and monetary pressure). Neither will we 'absorb' devs from modding teams that have not released anything, or are largely just artistic projects with no real gameplay.

I wasn't talking about absorbing, I was talking about taking over MC so that the higher-ups didn't shitcan everything like they did with DiB, then restarting all projects put on ice and giving them as much autonomy as they had under the previous management for them to work undisturbed until they release a proper demo, then leave them be on their own.

DiB has Potential with a capital P that, if executed flawlessly with oversight by an experienced dev team like TFR's, could influence the modding scene on a scope that TNO or TFR never could.

No it's doesn't it was retarded tryhard slop that added things for the sake of being 'cool' (like randomly having william luther pierce but he hates white people and epstein island as a tag) rather than for any actually "vision" like TFR (and even old TNO) has.

They did that in Ukraine too especially before 2022. I think the point is more that people whine about vehicles from the 70s and 80s being used when they're perfectly viable unless you're going head to head with state of the art equipment.

Its time for a **MINI EXPANSION PACK!**

New update for The Fire Rises **1.0.9.1** is set to release **THIS SATURDAY 31.01.2026**

**BRUSSELS EFFECT**, a minor european content update meant to be the first step towards something surely bigger...

Treasure your legacy of skills, child of Europe.
Inheritor of Gothic cathedrals, of baroque churches.
Of synagogues filled with the wailing of a wronged people.
Successor of Descartes, Spinoza, inheritor of the word 'honor',
Posthumous child of Leonidas
Treasure the skills acquired in the hour of terror.

Why in the ever loving fuck would big mods like TFR waste their time taking over MC mods? Modernity collective is tooser slop garbage and its like 3 people MAX actually working on it. This has to be one of the retards who work on those mods trying to shill for them being taken over by TFR for whatever reason.

>>2330407

Eh, this upcoming one sounds kinda fucking lame if I'm gonna be honest. I don't doubt the content will be high quality, but pre 1EW Europe is just a generally boring setting that you really can't make fun/interesting due to all the groups present being boring moderates.

If it is ever in my power I will have every single Russian killed, man woman or child. If it is not, I will never stop calling for it to happen, youll have to kill me, which Id welcome you to try. The more wars you start and the longer they go, the more opportunities to kill Russians we have.

I am going to say something controversial:
TFR American Civil War should splinter "realistically", with two initial large factions that disintegrate. Hear me out. This isn't for "realism" purposes, mind you. I as a player was initially confused by the setup, and prepared for a multifront civil war when really I was railroaded into a 1v1. That part I won't complain about, but I will complain that too many factions at the start is confusing. At best there should be a compromise, a collection of 'neutral' states that stay out of the initial 1v1 and then they splinter into militarized factions as things continue. We have a relatively simple civil war that appears to be not so bad, and then the country explodes.

>>2330695
>I will complain that too many factions at the start is confusing
I actually like this feeling of confusion at the start though, adds to the sense that shit just hit the fan and the overall chaos of things.

The dude's Cuban personal guard tried and promptly got discombobulated.

>>2330908

They tried this too. Like a good third world army, the missile either failed to track or merely missed and the launcher's location (and presumably the launcher too) got disrupted.

Or, as mentioned, maybe the Venezuelan armed forces are really, really incompetent.
There's hilarious footage of them trying, and failing, to demolish a plastic bag tent. There's footage of them deploying a sea drone that failed to destroy a wooden boat. There's footage of their "heroic militias" training, which featured fat Karens moving exactly the way you'd imagine. All of the above looked like a parody written by Mel Brooks, or starred by Charlie Sheen or Leslie Nielsen, but it was sold like genuine serious state propaganda.

>>2330913
Nah it just makes more sense that he was sold out along with his people. It's a corrupt impoverished shithole. Probably didn't cost them much to buy someone out especially since no one really liked Maduro.

Do carriers with fighters provide their own air superiority? Last I checked they didn't and naval bombers required land fighters to do anything.

What Trump wants people to think:
>the USA has a wunderwaffe that can disable any radar and missile system
>they have invincible cyborg soldiers
>stealth chinooks
Meanwhile in reality:
>he just promised the Venezuelan elite that he will lift oil sanctions if they get rid of maduro so that he can actually look good and not like an incompetent retard for once after he himself hyped maduro up as the narcoterrorist-in-chief

>>2330920
>>the USA has a wunderwaffe that can disable any radar and missile system

You could separate these out by a week or two to add events and make the collapse look more organic.
If its too laggy to make new tags appear like that then just representing the collapse through the country slowly becoming completely demilitarised could work too.

I unleashed Desert Storm 2: Electric Boogaloo on Iraq with my Exo troopers and drone swarms and I dont think Ive ever seen a 6000:1 KD before.

While the ideas may be cool, as a modder/coder I can tell you guys already that this sort of thing will be far messier and harder to make than it may seem for, in comparison to the investment, not much more fun than what the current descent into the 2ACW is now.

I say keep it as it is.

The flavour expansion submod help to understand america did not just wake up one morning of 2022 and decided to splinter into 3000 warlords. The events actually make you feel the country falling apart and the feds loosing control. Atomwaffen is in control of soth florida weeks before the civil war start in game

I consider this headcanon and mandatory

The cringey meth priest events for ATW put me off that submod entirely

Is the guy who posts the daily subcount comparisons between TNO and TFR still around? I know he's said that they're kinda useless due to how big the gap has gotten between their daily sub growth rates, but I still enjoyed seeing them as a daily news sorta thing. Maybe we can get the comparisons once a week or so so they dont flood the thread.

How? That mod sucks

>>2331186
i played it recently for the first time in years and it was much better than I remembered. The new Iran tree was good fun I thought.

>>2331173
My guy you had dirlewanger brigade going into a children's hospital solely to bayonet babies while high off their asses on meth in the warsaw uprising.

The meth cult event that isn't far off from reality

>>2331189
Apologies for writing like an ESL retard, I'm tired.

The error log guy (the one who made the tgwr drama video + the shitshow that the TNO interview was) recently came out with a new vid. Looks somewhat overdramatic, but it does seem to showcase actual issues the tgwr team has (+some teхt-interviews from former devs).

Multitude of reasons. What's the first thing an average new player thinks could be a mod and/or wants to try out? HOI4 in the present day. If you google "hoi4 modern day mods" or something similar, TFR won't even get a mention (at least when I tried), it's only md. It's in the top 3 of the most subscribed mods, so, a player unacquainted with the modding scene thinks, "surely it must be good?" Hell, even if you just search for articles about "best hoi4 mods", md regularly ranks in the top.

>lets see what /uhg/ is talking about this time

off-topic conversation either way, that applies to the pro-Ukie anon too

>>2331186
>It's ancient and had since 2016 to build up subscribers
>Its premise of the modern day is an obvious one for HOI4
>It's relatively simple to get into so it has appeal to people getting into modding (or at least it used to before the merge with MD4)
>A lot of people are gonna be looking at IRL events and that may draw them to play the mod. Basically until TFR's release it was the only modern day mod
>TFR's popularity had a positive effect on Millenium Dawn, because people see it as a sandbox version of TFR
All that on top of a natural advantage that being on the front page of the workshop gives. People clicking on the tab and scrolling down are gonna first be interested in the mods that show up.

>>2331185
These are fucking awesome, I think a monthly update (or even bi-weekly) to current sub count progress like this would be great to see, just as a guage.

>>2331202
Seconded, if he could post a link to a copy then we could get some nice graphs going.

>>2331179
I'm still around, I was going to start doing monthly/weekly ones. The next one I'll do will compare the Jan 1 to the Feb 1 numbers. The reason I don't do them daily is because the joke got old and it's not worth filling up the post count over it.

>>2331186

Never wasting a single second on this retarded fag's videos after first whining about the GWR devs using slurs and then caving hard to Mango. Guy's a total joke.

>>2331202
>>2331206
Thanks. It was honestly just meant to be a thing to sate my own curiosity and data autism. I thought I might share it since it was relevant to the topic of conversation.

I do the updates every 26th of the month. No reason, it's just the day I started keeping a record, and this one stretches back to December 26th 2024. I can make a copy for the thread maybe next week when I get my normal wifi up and running.

>>2331217
yea i don't get why gen z hates curse words so much, but it really detracts from his videos. I don't care if developers use profanity, I care what the developers are developing (if anything).

>>2331228
I don't like or use much profanity either. I consider it to be vulgar and counterproductive especially in public places. But I'm not going to moralfag over it let alone stir up heaps of pointless Discord drama over it. So much of what he does is just cheap sensationalism and shit-stirring for attention's sake and the moment he faced the slightest bit of pushback from Mango he broke like a twig and started to suck up to the guy he was condemning a day ago.

>>2331217
There's this thing linked under the vid, it contains testimonials from 15 devs (probably the most interesting/important part) and a bunch of screenshots (though a fair amount of these are just "he said no-no word"). Guess it's a good substitute for the vid kek.

Will there be an event in TFR that has Jeffrey Epstein browsing /u/?

>why gen z hates curse words so much
They assume life is like social media, where you can get demonetized for using certain words.

Do you think there should be some rework around the nukes? They feel kind of awkwardly placed currently in the tfr. I understand having them limited to decisions but an option to start amassing a stockpile as Nazi/Militarist Germany could explain why the Soviets don't just glass them the moment they reach Minsk. Similarly if sci fi is being leaned into a little then having a way to intercept China's warheads as Japan would be interesting if done well. At this point I am more interested in late game content then early, I think the set ups are really good, imagine the first generation raised post world breakdown.

>>2331228
The mentally disabled and retarded have larger voices online than in real life, most gen z could not care less about you swearing.

>>2331255
>Do you think there should be some rework around the nukes?
I think its quite fine as is, the only thing I'd really change is that using any nuke should massively raise the enemy ai's chance of using nukes against you.
>I understand having them limited to decisions but an option to start amassing a stockpile as Nazi/Militarist Germany could explain why the Soviets don't just glass them the moment they reach Minsk.
Germany is under the british/french nuclear umbrella.
>Similarly if sci fi is being leaned into a little then having a way to intercept China's warheads as Japan would be interesting if done well.
China would be able to easily overwealm any japanese missile defence system by just producing more missiles. It costs a whole lot more to shoot them down than fire them. Maybe they could create a national bunker system like the military path in china does with beijing.

>>2331195
>>2331217
The way that faggot keeps complaining about slurs is pathetic. He actually used the term "r-word" in his video. At this point that sort of whining weakens his argument.

>>2331255
100%. Its patently ridiculous for nuclear armed states to fight each other without eventually vaporizing each other. If youre going to have China fight India or France fight Russia, those countries should all suffer nuclear annihilation and essentially be deleted from the game from that point on. It should be something you have to avoid at all costs.

>>2331271
Is this guy some sort of industry plant shill? I swear its like he appeared one day and suddenly hes going on this "crusade against revisionism" in regards to drama that nobody gives a shit about. Whats up with that?

>>2331281
I think people actually are interested in HOI4 drama, and before the error guy appeared, there hadn't been a channel that would cover it. He clearly didn't expect to blow up so quickly too, and the reach might be overwhelming him, hence the fuckups like getting folded by the TNO dev, or that post about how he's going to post screenshots of people raiding TGWR discord on his YT.

>>2331281
>>2331264
>>2331255
I've asked about this from the devs like a year before, its likely not going to get reworked cause the AI randomly annihilating you while playing as Europe for the crime of trying to win is not very fun.

Nukes were teased during the anniversary teasers:
>Ballistic and nuclear missiles will be joining cruise missiles in 1.1. They both work as they do in vanilla, with ballistic missiles having access to the "barrage" mission, making them invulnerable to interception, while nuclear missiles use the raid system. Do note that due to the nature of TFR, nuclear missile strikes will only become available when outside factors allow it. Nothing's stopping you from producing them, of course.

>>2330902
lmao what happened to that mod

>>2331330
Progressively lost their steam going into the 2020s, with October 7, 2023 being the death knell where many team members left over ideological squabbling (yes, I’m serious)

I'm really against this. HOI4 as a base platform isn't prepared to properly simulate nuclear warfare, and I mean that in the "fun" sense rather than the "realistic" sense.
It'd be nice if each faction had relationships with other factions rather than a global world tension, or something. And you'd end up with something like pic related, rather than "Iran just nuked Israel, so China can invade Taiwan I guess".

Is the TFR update gonna break my saves? Do I need to finish this run tonight?

>>2331339
There was a clique in a mod I used to be in that was the same. It was a group of communists that'd sit in VC all day and talk about communism. Eventually they quit, and the mod became a lot more healthy and productive since it no longer had that millstone around its neck. It wasn't just that they were politically toxic but they'd also be opinionated about other things and circle the wagons against any criticism. Having people like that around can really sink a project.

I'm sure I just described at least ten mods.

>>2331352
There's guides on how to prevent hoi4 mods from updating, you hot a few hours to do it.

How do I get Li Zongren as Right KMT in the new Kaiserreich China update? I’ve clicked every event choice that increases PatAut popularity but I want to know if I’m missing anything and the wiki is outdated.

>>2331352
Just disconnect from the Internet

>>2331384
There's a flowchart on the Reddit. I don't have it saved, but it looked pretty comprehensive. If you join the KR Discord, someone there's almost certain to know about it.

>>2331384
Can you post the screenshots of the RKMT focus tree? I want to know if I should bother trying it.
