Maestro's Cold War 2

[h1]相当不错的冷战政治模拟游戏[/h1] 体验各个超级大国在冷战中的对抗与冲突[spoiler] 并把英法殖民帝国拆的一干二净，就算你玩的是法国也可以拆英国[/spoiler]。 在核战的阴影下，超级大国间的直接冲突基本就代表着我们所熟知的文明的毁灭，因此大家难得的能坐起来用一种相对体面的形式来追名逐利——事实上不管怎么宣传，冷战与意识形态的关系要远小于胜利后世界霸主的宝座的关系[spoiler]更别说搞出了911的穆斯林恐怖分子还是cia为了对抗想要南下的苏联扶持的，当时还拍了电影赞扬塔利班是自由斗士呢，结果转头就始乱终弃了[/spoiler][spoiler]落得被刀的下场（哇，还有病娇）[/spoiler]。 [h2]关于游戏内容[/h2] 这只是单纯的政治模拟，经济与军事都是为了政治而服务的，你没法像其他游戏那样直接操控前线部队或是平地起高楼新建一座座大都会，你能做的就只有花钱让更多人去送死——并颠覆或保卫一个可能对整个世界而言无关紧要的政权。 意识形态并不重要——至少没有很多人想的那样重要，你有的是时间让你的盟友把国有资产贱卖或把私人财产没收，但一切的前提是那是你的而不是你对手的盟友，为此所需要的手段要尽可能的灵活，但事后是否要把那个荒唐的国王或将军换成一个更听话的傀儡一般不是选择题。 [h2]具体一点的东西？[/h2] 作为一款回合制游戏，其毫无疑问对手残党十分友好，操作量上并不会比其他大战略游戏多（甚至还要少不少）。 不过因为政治模拟的本质，对于一些急性子来说这游戏里的战争节奏是很慢的[spoiler]现实里剿匪越剿越多的情况也不少见[/spoiler]，你需要花上可能数年的时间去帮你的盟友解决那总是能得到他国援助的游击队，亦或是反客为主在你对手的盟友境内扶持海量的反对派。 但战争不是唯一选项，大多数情况下你只需要用海量的援助博得目标的好感并与之签订防卫协议即可扩张你的势力，但如果遇到意识形态入脑死活不肯加入你的大家庭[spoiler]或者后宫[/spoiler]的家伙，通常只有两种选择——入侵或动员游击队[spoiler]其实就是挑起内战[/spoiler]，如果那是另一个超级大国的盟友的话只能选择后者了[spoiler]哇，还有ntr[/spoiler]。 等到游击队推翻政府的时候，你就需要和新政府打交道，并和他们签订条约了，哪怕新政府是推翻了你盟友的游击队所组建的，你也得捏着鼻子和他们搞好关系以保证自身利益。 至于目标……如果你没有在选项里选择那几个胜利条件的话，你要做的实际上非常简单——让你控制的国家延续到游戏结束，你大可不问世事的只在乎自家门前的一亩三分地，毕竟你的对手不可能直接入侵你，不是吗？但又有谁会拒绝在这个时代大展身手呢？反正游戏里的核冬天不会降临在你的头上，你大可搞几百次核灭世。 [h3]一点点题外话[/h3] 目前游戏里的可体验国家只有美国、苏联/俄罗斯、中国与法国四国，考虑到二战对英国及其殖民帝国的影响，添加英国扩展内容目前看来并无太大的必要（冷战中的英国实际上已经脱离列强之列，只不过靠着曾经世界霸主的余裕硬撑着罢了），所以我就不提了。 我从评论区内看到了作者对于添加中国当代内容的一些疑虑，我想我可以稍微解释一下…… 事实上中国官方的言论管控比国际主流媒体宣传的要宽松不少（有一个笑话是你可以随便中国任意一个论坛里说中国没有言论自由，但在X上说美国没有言论自由会被警告），只要没有刻意的污蔑（典型例子便是战地4）一般涉及近现代历史的内容不会被刻意封禁，更何况游戏里已经存在文化大革命这种相当敏感的内容了（硬要说有什么事件是绝对的红线的话……只能是那所谓的六四事件了，但事实上这个事件很大概率是他国刻意引导的，毕竟一个十亿人口的社会主义国家哪怕承诺不输出革命对于美国而言也是极具威胁的）。不过相关机制和事件可能不太好做（比如因为不输出革命而将大部分精力用在经济建设与外交上，以及在两伊战争期间对双方售卖武器以换取外汇搞发展这种事情，和那著名的一亿美元一发的导弹军售）。

10/10 would coup Panama again To dev; maybe add some options with what to do with a country after you win an invasion such as Establishing an military administration splitting the country into two or more with one of the sides going into your sphere of influence A feature for the USSR where you turn the country into a SSR with high nationalism and possibly and large guerrilla Turing it into a puppet state? maybe add events if you have most of Europe, Africa, or Arabia in your bloc such as an European Union or African Union anyways keep up the good work your making an masterpiece

框架不错，比较轻松易上手，ui称得上还不错，不过即使作为美苏游玩（尤其是苏）也有些太单调，事件影响太小且平常可干之事只有不停染色和加科研两种，没有体现出频繁突发地缘政治危机带来的全球紧张节奏。 主体内容还不够丰富就别急着出第三国DLC了，美苏两国国内国际都有很多可以完善的地方，比如美国大选机制与苏联内部派系

I would definitely recommend this game. It's a unique play that is both simple and difficult. I love history, but this is an era that I had not really ever done a deep dive on. I of course know the highlights, like just about everyone else, but that was it. Here recently, I had been learning about The Great Leap Forward (terrible name for such a great leap backwards), Vietnam, and Cambodia with its "Killing Fields" during this era which sparked my interest in this game (man what an evil, bloody, and tumultuous time!). This game has not only entertained, but enlightened me through introduction to events and concepts, which because I have an inquisitive mind, induced me to research in more detail for myself. Things I can definitely appreciate. The small business creator, whom you would be supporting, takes pride in his work and is both responsive and interactive with his base. Very cool! Lastly, my personally philosophy is if a game can give you more hours of play from it than you paid for it in dollars, it is well worth it. I bought the collective bundle and crossed that threshold already, with many more hours I want to sink in it. Bonus: if you do try and like this game, I would also recommend his other works on Barbarossa and Stalingrad, which I also own. Well done, Maestro Cinetik!

Das ist meine erste Steam-Rezension – also bitte ich die Community um ein bisschen Nachsicht. :) Ich kann dieses Spiel jedem ans Herz legen, der sich für Politik, Geschichte und alternative Verläufe („What if?“-Szenarien) interessiert. Die Spielmechanik ist insgesamt recht einfach zu verstehen. An einigen Stellen könnte die Grundmechanik noch etwas weiter verfeinert werden, aber alles in allem bietet das Spiel ein wirklich tolles Setting. Besonders gut gefallen hat mir, dass die alternativen Entwicklungen und möglichen Ausgänge wirklich interessant und kreativ gestaltet sind. Dadurch macht es Spaß, verschiedene Wege auszuprobieren und zu sehen, wie sich die Welt entwickelt. Ich selbst komme aus einem Dorf in Westdeutschland, ganz in der Nähe der damaligen Grenze zur DDR. Über die Elbe konnte man früher die Grenzanlagen der DDR und die Truppen des Warschauer Paktes sehen. Ein kleines bisschen von diesem Gefühl und diesem historischen Vibe kann das Spiel tatsächlich vermitteln. Großes Lob an die Entwickler – ich hoffe sehr, dass die fertige Version des Spiels richtig gut wird! :) This is my first Steam review, so please be a little forgiving. :) I can recommend this game to anyone who is interested in politics, history, and alternative history / “what if?” scenarios. The gameplay itself is relatively easy to understand. The core mechanics could still be refined a bit in places, but overall the game has a really great setting. What I especially liked was how interesting and creative the alternative outcomes and scenarios are. It makes experimenting with different paths genuinely fun and keeps the game engaging. I come from a small village in West Germany, very close to what used to be the border with East Germany (the GDR). Across the Elbe River, people could once see the border installations of the GDR and the troops of the Warsaw Pact. In a small way, this game manages to capture some of that atmosphere and feeling. Big praise to the developers – I really hope the fully developed version of the game turns out awesome :)

not sure if this is the developer's latest game but it seems like it is. the UI is much better (though maybe less flavorful for the time period but whatever) than in previous games. this game plays like a more in-depth balance of power, you allocate funds to do different things like sending economic aid to a country and then signing a defensive pact to boost your prestige. more prestige by end game year means you win. invasions are possible but discouraged and war mechanics are greatly simplified. that's fine, you are a high ranking bureaucrat and not a general, this is not a wargame. it starts off really almost mind-numbingly simple and then as you try to outcompete your rival and stop them from flipping some key strategic nations it starts getting a lot more complicated overall while still being easy to understand which is good. unfortunately this game does suffer from the same issue this developer's other games suffer from, which is a lack of info. i can see the end of month reports but none of them seem to explain why sometimes im up almost 1000 prestige and then the next month its -170 other than a vague "relationship change". invasions aren't really clear either, especially the korean war event. i can't actually tell if the troops im sending are impacting the war or its all narrative based. you get a thing that tells you "government forces victory is certain" and some updates on the conflict like if one side seized land and what impact it has, but actual troop losses don't seem to be included in the reports. i see there's an option for mod support which is great, i know the browser version has stuff like an MGS mode and a trump world one so that's fun. the game right now could use some more polish, there are some UI glitches here and there like with "key not found" being displayed in french, i had one CTD in the menu when clicking on start new game while in a game. more content would also be nice, but what's there is decent. i like the addition of national focuses that adds more strategy but also a bit more realism if you want that. i'd recommend it overall but the price is a bit high for a simple early access game at the moment. maybe like $8-$10 would be more accurate for now imo.

I, like many, played this back when it was a browser game. I can attest to a few things. -It's extremely fun. -The Developer listens very closely to what is said, and works HARD to improve the game constantly. -The mods will take off in the near future. We're talking alternate history, aliens, Trump, 2020, Civil War. Endless possibilities for this game. 10/10, buy it. You will not be disappointed.

很不错的游戏，我本来已经有了维多利亚三，钢铁雄英四这种历史性游戏了，但是我看到了游戏开发者积极回应反映每个玩家报告的问题，使我十分对这个游戏充满好感，可能是没直接切换语言，游戏简介我也看不懂，我就下了。玩了5个小时，我也慢慢上手了，来简略地介绍一下此游戏，这是一个回合制，选择自己想玩儿的阵营，每回合都会有固定的钱收入。除此之外，该游戏还有科研系统，然后内务系统，然后和对其他国家的一系列外交行动，比如给钱，然后给予军事援助，然后稳定性，游戏中的签订防御条约实际上就是一种使其加入你的阵营的东西，但是是很想说一下，能不能把游戏中的“非常可能，可能，不可能？，非常不可能”在描述时可以给出具体概率。希望游戏能越做越好（然后我还想问一下，这里的抢先体验游戏就等同于把游戏本体买下来，还是说后期还得再买一次呀？如果后期还得再买的话，定价差不多是多少啊）
