Have they fixed that AI bug where the Bismarck and crew sail up to
Hawai, invade and capture it ?

This game is a farce as a serious WWII simulator - one might just as
well play Axis & Allies and get more believable results to boot.

It's not marketed as a "serious" WWII simulator, doh! It's a strategy
game taking place during WWII.

This reminds me of my favourite COG:EE bug/feature: the Turkish(!)
Navy persistently sailing up and down the English channel and beating
Royal Navy fleets by the bushel. What is it with devs and brave naval
types? They can't ALL be Gunther Prien fans.

Whatever it wants to take over, it'll probably look at the HoI 3 map

"most detailed game based on World War II ever made."

"the most detailed depiction of World War II ever created."

"'thousands of historically accurate military commanders and
politicians."

"Realistic military command AI allows for unprecedented levels of
interaction."

All from the game's main page over at :

http://www.paradoxplaza.com//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id...2&Itemi

Somebody who believes it is not marketed as a "serious WWII simulator"
obviously has a reading and comprehension problem. Do I smell George ?

being capable of Wink

HOI AI is actually Skynet in hiding, soon it will become fully self aware

Then somebody forgot to change that, because the current party line is: "HOI
III is a free-form strategy game with a WWII setting, you dork!"

....When someone wonders aloud what Finnish units are doing in SE Asia.

My favourite was: "I know PI said they would not move Stalingrad, fair
enough. The scrutinizing eye will realize though, that in 1.2, the rest of
the world got moved."

Also worth mentioning is item number one in the readme: "Added a simplified
terrain mapmode where each province " ... And that's it for that sentence.
Paradox just oozes quality control.

Yup, the bugs in the readme are almost worth of their own thread. People on
the forums are scratching their heads about things like:

"- Fixed a bug with the objective assignment of child agents"

The amazing thing is that the guys at PI are being hailed like if they are
firefighters trying to save the game - leaving to the world to wonder *who*,
according to the fanboys, broke it.
