So I started a game on the easiest difficulty to get the hang of the game and I think I've got the basics, how your empire scales off the resources, upkeep, colony expansions, lots of research, fortified positions, etc. What difficulty should I start my first real game on? And I was recommended a mod that makes everyone start an equal distance apart, should I use it?

no real answer but try whatever the middle difficulty is with no mods. tailor your experience from there. too hard, ease it up, dont like x thing, mod it baby.

Pretty much this
Jackson Brown
just play it however you wish to play
do you want to RP?
then install as many mods, create as many custom empires and set the difficulty to as high as you wish
do you want a challenge?
then create the current meta empire, set all enemies and the end game crisis to the highest difficulty and have a go at it
do you just want to discover as much as the game has to show?
set the difficulty to lowest, make the galaxy as big as possible and have only a few empires spawn, then go around researching anomalies and excavating relics
you can tailor the game however you wish

Just do whatever who cares.
I would suggest to never play on easiest and go for Ensign Ironman instead. That way you can feel the balance of the game yourself without gimping your experience with literal cheats both on your side on easier difficulties and AI side on higher difficulties.

How do I have an all white human civ?
Samuel Hill
Get Europa mod (I think thats what its called).
Austin Flores
"Separate Human Phenotypes" can work as well
you can also make a civ full of black gorilla niggers
Hudson Gutierrez
>European Phenotype and Names only
Hunter Watson
the answer here is to create both and then enslave the gorrillas for labor

I jumped from cadet to grand admiral right after learning the mechanics. You can do it too. I believe in you.

Thoughts on HOI4?
Xavier Hughes
you got it
I always make them aggressive nogs and they always kill themselves economically fighting some aliens
Liam Evans
how's the new patch
is the game still unplayable lategame and micro heavy?
Jaxon Wood
if by unplayable lategame as in dogshit performance due to pops then no it has not been fixed
Ryan Richardson
yeah that's what I've meant
any mods to fix that? shit drives me nuts
Jonathan Stewart
>get to the crazy shit
>performance is so bad I might as well just quit

any good mod to increase AI fleet power? it's impossible for them to survive 4X crisis on their own. I'm tired of babysitting the whole universe. I just want them to be stronger. so the end game crisis can be both challenging and fun.
Andrew Carter
not really, the crisis is supposed to be just that and if the player wasnt aware of its arrival, you'd get wiped away just as easily.
