Dont hear the people complaining about private construction.

90% of them havent even played the game with the recent update, they dont know what they are talking about. it makes it much more interesting with the ai building stuff themselves, including ai building on foreign states. For exemple i normally play has minors, and construction sectors can get quite expensive and i often have a small elite. So its quite nice seeing foreign elites building up my country. Plus the ai is doing a much better job at where to build, i checked my financial districts and manors and most of them had buildings with good productivity.

There are several reasons why Private Construction is good. But the clincher for me is that it's just too hard to keep track of every single good the Pops need, and every single set of goods that go into making those goods.

If I had to personally identify, queue and build for absolutely every good, and every prerequisite good for those goods, it would drive me mad.

With Private Construction on, all the stuff I would lose track of myself gets covered off for me by the Pops themselves, thank goodness.

Just try running Japan in Isolationist mode, where you can't import stuff, and see how you get on having to personally build for every single good. Then you'd stop complaining about Private Construction being a thing.

And, by the way, I'm right. Because I have 568.8 hrs in-game. And my Dad's bigger than your Dad.

Try using laissez faire right now, their income is crazy, I couldn't keep up with 2 construction yards in the early game as afghanistan but the instant I switched I've built 5 and I still can't drain their income even as I stop building entirely and let the private sector handle everything.

Best part is that it's a snowball effect, the more stuff they build themselves, the more their financial districts grow, the more capitalists I get, the more filthy rich people I'll get to (possibly) tax later. They are also buying up all the buildings from my vassals. It's pretty sick.

Laissez Faire used to be pretty cool before but it's great now. The only things I need to build are admin buildings, ports and universities.

Pfff 690 hrs here so all you sub 600 opinions are invalidated, vicky 3 is a fun game and the new dlc seems a lot of fun aswell anyone with less hours who says otherwise doesn't know better yet anyone with more hours with a different opinion is just a slow learner that should play more so they can realize the game is Güd and my opinion is the right one. My opinion is more right then that of others unless they agree with me. mic drop

The only bad part is they are build in places that have no employees. nothing like having 60 steel mills in the middle of nowhere with a pop of only 30k.

I do like the update, its a direct upgrade compared to the oid private investment but I would rather keep on Interventionalism or command economy to stop the ai from making bad building decisions. until an update or mod comes out that prevents them from doing so.

lil bonus tho, on Laissez Faire factories do auto downgrade over time so you don't have to destroy them like before.
