Generals!
Here’s a concise status update on what the team is actively addressing right now.
Post‑release support is ongoing. We’re closely monitoring forum discussions and community feedback and will publish the first post‑launch patch this week. This update contains a broad set of fixes and improvements and will be compatible with existing save games so you can continue your campaigns uninterrupted.
Coal.
We’ve read the many comments, concerns, and suggestions about coal. We’re evaluating the feedback and will communicate the specific adjustments we plan to make in an upcoming update.
Stability, multiplayer performance, and naval AI.
These areas remain top priorities. Our engineers are profiling and optimizing multiplayer systems to make sessions more stable and responsive. Concurrently, we’re improving naval AI so fleets behave more effectively and adaptively.
The patch scheduled for this week includes a targeted fix that should reduce certain causes of lag, along with naval AI improvements, a variety of bug fixes, and balance tweaks.
Please continue reporting problems on the forums. Detailed bug reports and reproduction steps are extremely valuable and directly inform our priorities. If you’re unsure how to format a useful report, see how to submit an effective bug report.
Thank you for your continued support and for helping us improve HOI4 with every update. More information will follow soon.
