Paradox Interactive has something to say to the troops. The anticipated v1.4 patch for Hearts of Iron 3 has released, fixing bugs and adjusting features to address fan concerns and feedback.
“With Hearts of Iron 3, I admit we bit off a little more than we could chew,” said Johan Andersson, Head of Development at Paradox Interactive. “We tried to be revolutionary rather than evolutionary, and while we will always strive for continued improvement, I think the lesson learnt from this project is that people prefer polish over attempts at breaking new ground.”
The critical fixes include improved AI, especially as it relates to cooperation with allies and production. The game has also been optimized and the game is reportedly running 30% faster. Land, air and naval units have been rebalanced to improve the overall game experience, and submarines are much more appealing units. The Hearts of Iron series has become renowned for being the biggest, most detailed and complete strategic game series on World War II ever made.
