Troy Goodfellow, Assistant Developer tells us: We've decided to get in touch with Paradox Interactive to try and find out what is being done about these problems in the v1.5.2 patch. The 1.5.1 patch was released that began addressing the desync problems, but it has done little in that regard. The game was rebalanced, new focus trees were added, AI was improved, it has new data flows to handle in multiplayer environments and somewhere in between multiplayer was made completely unplayable with continual desyncs among the playerbase. Paradox Interactive has constructed a masterpiece of grand strategy gaming, but has it started to trip over with the addition of Waking Tiger and the v1.5 Cornflakes Patch that followed it? Hearts of Iron 4 is an extremely complex game if you look at it from a technical stand point. Other players are reporting the same, so Hearts of Iron 4 is at the moment fully complaint free! In our tests that we ran for about 6 hours, there weren't any desyncs experienced. patch, which has addressed the issue of desyncs.

UPDATE: Paradox Interactive has released the Beta 1.5.2. We aren't able to get any games going without them happening right from the start and throughout the game. UPDATE #2: We sadly need to report that the latest Beta 1.5.2.
