New P'dox affiliated release - For The Glory

Only 1,000 counties?  Sounds like the map's going to be pretty small.

Yeah that would be a typo on p'dox fault. This isn't CK, there are no counties.

Why are they basing this on the EU2 engine when they have a new one out?

They allowed some fans/independent programmers access to the EU2 source code to see what they could do.  They have kept EU3 to themselves though.

Because p'dox released its sourcecode for teams of people who wanted to modify it.  They were allowing people to do so for all the other games that were released on the old engine, but I don't recall what happened there. I think they decided not to release the CK code as they've still a beta release out there. Ulmont did you ever here from p'dox?

Hmmm.... perhaps they'll do something like that with the Magna Mundi crew...?  They were already given a sub-forum of their own.

Here's a long thread that potential changes/wishlist sort of items were discussed.  Of course the team was quiet on what had actually changed as we were covered by our NDA.

My latest inquiry, on April 21, was responded to with "We're currently swamped in applications and can't handle more.  Please contact us again in August if you still want to do a license."

I guess it's about time to resend the proposal.

Considerding they have decided to NOT make CK2 for a while (crap) then yes, you guys should really get to fixing Johan's code of CK1.

RE: CK. Isn't Johan on record as saying he had a horrible time developing CK1 and doesn't fancy doing that again?

When is this EU2 thingy due out anyway?

'Grats, Garbo, on getting published.

I thought the story is well-known: a bunch of Russian fucktards pulled a magnificent bluff on Paradox acting as if they were developing CK. When they discovered this, Johan had to blitzkrieg the joke of a code the Russians crawled together and turn it into a game in record time, which he did. I know I know, CK 1.0 was not exactly spectacular, but too bad you were not in the beta to see from where it reached that point.
