Not all is good, the game nerfed state owned companies by making them produce HALF the products.

Easily fixed by mods but damn.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You can own companies? My impression was halving was only for dividends, and it gets to more like 75% with command economy.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They remade the whole building ownership mechanics. So yes you can have nationalized companies now. Dividends eficiency changes but I havent looked at the numbers, on top of that nationalized companies have a -50% production throughput. So I made a mod to remove that and there is another great mod that overhauls all socialist systems to be more accurate, its called Theresas Communist Overhaul.

Where is your mod that removes the nationalized companies nerf, or at least what is it called so I can search for it if it is available to the public online?

Meabwhile, state owned war factories massively outproducing privately owned ones.

Gorbachev moment

What a dumb ass. His people didn't have capital, so why did he expect some of them to suddenly have enough spare to buy up the economy?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago

He went from cooperative back to interventionist so they already owned most of the buildings.

I saw that thread the other day. I was very proud of the sub for saying that this was both the obvious result, and the historical one. Victoria 3 draws out a whole lot of leftists obviously, but the nearly unanimous response was somewhat surprising.

Sounds lore accurate to me

Almost as if that's how crapitalism is designed

Did they finally add foreign investment mechanics to Vicky? I got tired of sitting in the endgame watching half the world squander their obscene oil reserves while my economy is dying from a lack of supply.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

They did, and as the OOP found out foreign capital will invade your economy the second you let it. One of the other balance changes was neuturing state owned.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They should really just have communism give you +20 infamy with capitalist nations or something instead of trying to nerf stuff like nationalization.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago

That's not how infamy works, but iirc there is a little alert under command economy and council republic that says foreign nations will be more likely to be hostile. Other than that, state-owned buildings can also be built under any system except laissez faire, although economy of scale is halved, and government dividends is reduced with varying amounts depending on the economy law.
