Wow it's amazing. On par with any ww2 battleship game I've played on the PC!! The Japanese campaign is hard for the first mission or so then it rocks!
Just a nitpick - Are you able to put a setting for US gunnery? Towards the end when I faced off 2 iowas their inaccurate gunnery was a bit laughable! Also esp in the first mission of the Japanese game some kind of turn predictor for the DD would be great to enable the DD to better steer towards and shadow the sub. No big gripes though - super effort!!

Enemy gunnery can be a fickle thing and we designed it this way on purpose. For example an enemy ship may get a lucky bead on you early forcing you to retreat. Also wind speed and direction can greatly throw off the enemy's aim, so if you're good at estimating wind drift you can develop a further advantage over the enemy in windy conditions. Those two Iowas might have been in windy conditions?? For the movement (tunring) indicators, we chose not to display these. Similarly, we don't show gun or torpedo ranges in the user interface. Essentially we wanted the game to have a "feel" aspect to it, whereby the player would learn these things over time. So rather than just show the player gun/torpedo ranges, bomb sights and movement arcs, we wanted a game that was easy to learn but could be mastered with extended playing time.

Any chance this may go to Windows 8? I recently got rid of my ipad and bought a Surface Pro. Really liked what you accomplished in 2.0.

We're currently working on an Android port and have yet to decide whether we'll port to Windows 8. Being PC gamers ourselves it is quite probable at some point, but we don't have a time frame yet.

Ref emulator from android to PC
Hi guys I dont know if it been posted yet ref a program that let you play some android games on a PC. I found a program called Blue Stacks thats works great with pacific fleets(i an using win 8.1). I also tried it with Crash Dive and the verdict is still out.
Just use your search engine and type blue stacks. Use the official site. It's a free program that set up a android environment. Regards Lewie i just found out that after you use blue stacks for awhile that they want you either download 5 sponsor program or pay a subscription for 24 dollars per year sorry guy LW Last edited by Lewis Wingerter; 01-11-15 at 10:20 PM.

I just now am seeing this other last bit added. Perhaps Blue Stacks is not the best way to go after all...... Developers, where do you stand on a PC release? I'm neither going to buy another iPad or Android tablet, as I too sold mine for a Surface Pro Windows tablet. |
