Hey guys! This is a first attempt at a new format and also the first time recording in my new monitor resolution: 3440x1440, so a 21:9 aspect ratio!
Let me know what you think, both regarding the quality and the format! do you want more disasters saved?
Edit: the people have spoken! In future, I will record in 16:9 1440p again! Thanks for the feedback. There was an attempt!
looks a bit weird to me bc I dont see 1/4 of my screen lol
I think most people still watch with a screen ratio of 16:9. So it will appear strentched and with black bars for most people. So for me I'd so no thanks to the 21:9. But keep up the new series with disaster saves
This may be just because I’m on my phone but some of it is cut off and it looks at little strange
Don’t really love the resolution but very nice video
Quality was awesome but regarding the resolution specifically, please switch back to 16:9. Please keep doing these disaster saves saved.
Wow, I feel honored to have my save be the first one covered.
If you want a bit of the story to fill in the gaps at the beginning (and at least provide my (flawed) logic for things): I knew I'd have a disadvantage in industry so I thought I would have to get my divisions as strong as possible, hence the 14/4s, thanks to Bitt3rSteel though I know that was flawed logic. Obviously, because you need a hell of a lot of equipment to support them, I didn't have the industry to train more divisions. Changing to 20 width and then force deploying a bunch didn't occur to me. I also wanted to squeeze out a couple of armored divs along with 25 mils on medium tanks to try to make encirclements early; they were only 20 width because I didn't think I could wait to get the production to support 40 width tanks, so I was surprised when that was exactly what happened. Regarding the air, I knew I done messed up (red air hurt) (hence the little bit of research and industry into aa) and planned on trying to make a bunch after AA2, but yeah. The main fleet was on convoy raiding because I forgot to defend North Africa but I saw some Italian naval invasions and scrambled to try to catch some of them; I know that that's not a good use in general for the main fleet though. There isn't really any excuse for the inefficient focus path (like neglecting Stimulate the Dynamic Market); that was all basically my inexperience. And finally, I went for the Battle of Maneuver Line for purely LARP reasons because one of the things Napoleon (the 1st) was known for was his use of Cuirassiers and I liked the idea of reviving the spirit of that with modern tanks.
Anyway, great video to Bitt3rSteel! I learned a lot, especially because of how this video directly critiqued my play in a way. I'll be sure to give the Boche what for in my next attempt!
No comment? Ok lol...
@@Sheikh_diane 1🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
With the new aspect ratio I feel like I'm watching a movie
Yeah exactly it feels so weird, not sure if good or not though.
Yeah it's not needed, doesn't need to be cinematic
I can't read anything, text is too small to read on a phone
lol that’s how all of my french games used to look when i first started
My games looked like that when i tried doing the achievement without the guide
Mine look like that all the time I’m not very good at attacking I always lose
I think that’s how most people’s French games look unless they ‘cheat’ by going on an immediate conquest of Europe. I don’t think it’s possible to get France in a war mindset in time to levy very many factories. 🤷
Bitt3rSteel is like Alex the rambler but he can actually save the game?
Alex suceeds sometimes
@@lanleskovec8697 “sometimes”
Yes
You woke up and chose violence
He's like Alex but without the console
Bitt3rsteel calls the most well known river the Nile. “This River” 4:32
37:35 I feel so attacked…I get the shade though lol. I’m glad you’ve fixed your computer issues and love the content. I like this new “genre” you’re starting, and look forward to more videos. Keep up the good work!
How you go through his focus tree :D
"Not my choice"
"Bad, the other one's better"
"Why you picked this is beyond me! but okay"
always posting at 2am, but always gonna watch it - i mean no one else is like bitt3rsteel because everyone else does some cheeky explots -_-
Like you could just get rid of the black barriers and zoom in a bit I guess. It just feels weird recording it in an ultra wide
For me it's fullscreen, it depends on your phone too btw
It's not his settings it's his moniter. It looks normal to him.
Great you solved the problem with the monitor! I hope you will soon do a stream for the suffering series, those are my favorites, and about the resolution i much prefer the 16:9
the initial setup is very historical though, the whole allies force is trapped in the low land, allies can hold the line at the river line but have a gap in the middle
I liked this one because of the set-up. You have to choose what to defend or risk losing it all. Take that, Gamelin!
I like how everyone is doing this format. Excited for this new series. Hopefully fewer sabotaged saves than Alex the Rambler gets lol
France : *put a third Napoleon at the head of France*
Britain : No.. not again
New viewer, well done. Not only was this gripping but I learned things I’ve learned l’ve never heard of on multiplayer or from other HOI RUclipsrs!
I'm glad the video helped!
25:25 Field Marshal orders do not care how long a border is. It it is split in two, the field marshal order will split the divisions in two equal portions.
Because of you I started making medium tanks (and heavy tanks if I have a lot of chromium) and fights became so easy. It looks like the game where you have a box and you slice it piece by piece to trap the AI. Always making me laugh.
Dissecting the enemy, one pocket at a time
finally a reason to use the theather mode
I honestly think you should sent the save back before the peace deal just in case the player wanted to do something else
Subscribed despite the really awkward UI
Content is good, wish you did a series on monarchist Germany and how to not suck :3
This was a one-off ion terms of resolution. I wanted to see how a recoridng in 21:9 aspect ratio would work out. Turns out, not great for people without an ultrawide :p
@@Bitt3rSteel Still, I really want to see you play monarchist Germany and maybe achieve the coveted Weltkrieg win ;)
Hey.
I'm a little new over here, but I been some of your videos and I like them so much! Hello from Argentina.
Glad you like them!
On a 16:9 monitor this is not pleasant to watch
the beginning of a banger series
So many People neglect Air - I would say its the most important factor in HOI rn - With Green Air and a good amount of CAS you can be pretty successful with plain 20W Cavalry divisions, wouldn't recommend it but its doable, and 7/2 divisions can also do just fine with sufficient air - and without air its not really worth having tanks because many of their advantages are taken away and their high production cost arguably speaking isn't worth it.
A lot of people don't do much with air because in mp, they usually have an air controller to do it for them, additionally, CAS while very powerfull is also very much a gamble in mp with how quickly it gets destroyed by good AA. Because of this many people make strategies for mp, then whenever they play sp they use those same strategies, without the air. Before anyone comments on how AA does very little: I once had a battle that lasted 1 month, both sides took more than 50k casualties and both sides lost more than 300 CAS. All because everyone had decided to rush AA2, not even fully to fight the hostile air, more because both teams had a player who followed a light tank meta for some reason. Also if you have actually good tanks, especially with a decent general against the AI, the battles will be over before the air actually starts effecting the batlle much if at all.
really like the video format, looks like an artsy film
Wow i love this format, it was great
Ah yes
I can see you're doing the old Rambler strategy
Yoooooooo that new wide-screen be popping off!!
Btw, for your spotters, the light cruisers you chose have very low spotting, all the French cruisers at the start do. There is another class that has a spotter plane attached - whatever the Lamotte-Piquet is. Idk why I remember that... (Consider investing in Radar, or tier II spotter planes. A surface detection of at least 35 or above is ideal) The 1 Light Cruiser and four destroyers is perfect though. It's a great combo of being able to defend itself and also having low surface visibility.
And when you have naval supremecy, and know massive troop movements are going by sea, set your spotters to convoy raid, they're actually very effective in this task, but normally it's a waste of fuel. And you loose your spotting ability.
Bitt3rSteel really just pulled the reverse card on the Germans at Dunkirk
That reverse Dunkirk was cool hehe
I really enjoy this type of video keep it up!
A tip for the Navy, set the strike fleet to never repair or low repair priority. And MAKE SURE you turn off the setting for ships breaking off on their own to repair. That's a great way to loose capital ships to subs, and also a mistake the AI makes.
Also, for subs do the exact opposite, they're perfectly OK on their own to repair, and repairing frequently is the best setting
Landscape looks cool.
Glad to see the computer problem worked out
Now the cinema mode on RUclips isn't absolutely useless
ngl this is quite nice to watch
Thanks :)
ultra wide looks great m8
Good video keep it up
16:10 is pretty bad for RUclips. Hope you go back to rendering to 16:9.
Well, it's 21:9, but I get that it's very niche. I was just so excited for the new monitor
Name and shame these players. Whoever sent that frog save in licks windows for a living.
Sadly I can hardly read anything on my 16:9 laptop, but nice content as always.
Germuni is the Metal Slug baddies in thumbnail 😁
Fun idea for a series
24:23 "I gonna Dunkirk the Germans." Well, well, well how the turn tables.
"Don't raid with capital ships, it's not worth it." Soon, Bitt3r. Soon...
You should try to win endsieg 1945 without exploits, it would be very interesting to watch
Is it possible?
@@fishy5288 he said no exploits
@@fishy5288 that’s why I asked
Early on you said that pushing down independence gives you access to 75% of their military factories. Can you explain that more?
It the autonomy is lowered enough you can change their status from puppet to integrated puppet. Which gives you access to more of their factories
Nice video
Near unwatchable on mobile. I mean I can see the front lines and all, but pretty much can't see the amount of divisions on a tile, or even the total number of divs in his army, makes it hard to really follow what's going on and feel engaged
Will Bitt3rSteel be the new Alex the Rambler
hi, unfortunately the video format is making it difficult to appreciate on my 16/9 screen, i can't read the text i see and in general it doesn't look good.
Sorry about that
"This is what they do, they show up when the war is basically won and then they take credit. Americans"
the Romanians: *looks away*
Edit: just realized this joke isn’t that good lol
No it’s funny. Glad to see some ww1 fans
I love this resolution
casually took most of africa lmao great content
Classic french bad time at Sedan
yay
next up do a collab on this series with Alex the rambler
edit:the resolution is a bit weird
I have a whole mess of a china game where i tried going democratic early and the civil war dragged on too long so Japan invaded while i was still cleaning up. Lost the whole coastline but hoping i can finish flipping democratic so daddy USA and UK will save me before i capitulate
23:51 how the tabbles have turned
The German empire came out of that with a pretty good deal
If you had put everything you had on aa on fighter 1 and rushed fighter 2 air supperiority would have been yours withing 6 months
i think u get 75% factorys when you have at least 50% compliance
Would it be possible to make these save games public so other people could play them?
Pretty sure there's an ample supply of uploaded save games on the steam workshop, just FYI.
I know some YTrs have their saves sent there instead of emailed.
8:47
Yes.
why didn’t you go behind the river line in the benelux
im gonna guess overextension.
Overexposed with the amount of troops available
I played as Napoleonic France last night, I never play as France. Killed Benelux and UK very easily, Spain as well since they went communist so I wanted to take them out before they could join the Commintern. Then I got to Germany.....unless you are the US I'm firmly convinced that Germany is impossible to beat past 1940. I had 122 fully equipped fully trained divisions with max planning and level 4 land forts and level 5 AA in every tile, and they broke through my line with the garrison they had on my border while their main army was in Moscow. I wanted to finish the game but it's just impossible, Germany is OP.
Yes
Can you make the UI bigger ? That would be great for mobile users :)
Yes I am also having problem watching the video in mobile
"Oh no, Slovakia, ohhh..." Hahaha
Nice
37:40 Which war are you referring to? Because if it's either of the world wars then you are wrong.
its a joke, friend
I wander if i have some saves of wen i startet playng the game
nice video, please a like this kind of challenge, can you please uupload those save files for us the public? please
I'll see what i can do!
Napoleon the IIIrd moment
Bro bittersteel i was just playing france
Make Why die for danzig achievement video!
that's how all of my France games look I can't play as them it's impossible Germany is too strong
just win lmao
@@quagnam438 why didn't I think of that before 🤦♂️
Yeah Germany just feels unfairly strong. They get such a massive industry they can basically beat the world. Plus the allied AI is borderline useless. I've only ever seen the UK hold the Suez maybe once. Never seen the Russians hold either
Do you do modded disaster saves?
I'm curious, how do you send save games to an email?
i like
ayy (ALMOST) the same resolution
why you disabled the closed captions? as a non english speaker it's hard to me to understand your word without the subtitle
They arent disabled. I leave them on auto-generated. I think RUclips just hasnt created any yet...i'm sorry
How to submit i wonder how can you save my disaster campaing
He said in video
Honestly, with the new Resolution, i can barely See anything on the map,
Is this is the base vanilla?
can you make persian empire.it is the hardest to make i think.a little help will be really good.
*mess up one iota of a realize roman ambitions run in 1936*
Yep, game's ruined, pack it in boys; wrap it up and ship it to Bitt3rSteel.
Does anyone know what reinforce meme is and how to do it ?
Really enjoyed the content, except the format it was delivered in. It's really unforgiving on my poor (not-so-young-any-longer-unfortunately) eyes. Otherwise, thank you for sharing the video with us.
I like ze rezolutionö
On phone, its looks better than.1080... but interface are so small, its eye hurting
Please 16:9...
Great content btw
How van i sent you mijn disaster save
Gonna credit alex?
How can i send him my save?
How do i send a disaster save
how do i send my disaster
24:00 *REVERSE DUNKIRK*
Awesome content Idea! Greetings from Austria! Maybe you could play my country one time, would appreciate it :D Cheers.
I can hardly read numbers and words from my 1920x1080 24" monitor
