radar Gunfleet, MMO PT Boat game now available for the PC

Gunfleet, MMO PT Boat game now available for the PC



Quote:
If you are a fan of the first and second world wars and happen to like battling other players across various seas, GunFleet has just that and a bit more. As of now, the MMO boat game is only available for PC and will soon land on Steam Early Access “sometime soon”.

According to the devs GunFleet is an online MMO-shooter, which comes to fruition by the different countries’ water-based fleets of the Great War and the second world war. The game encourages players to battle fiercely and to gather in quick torpedo boats, submarine chasers, submarines and river monitors…

“GunFleet is an online MMO-shooter, inspired by the different countries’ mosquito fleets of the First and Second World Wars. Fight with each other, assemble in fleets of high-speed torpedo boats, submarine chasers, submarines and river monitors!”


Looks like fun!

Looks way too "arcadish" for my taste.

It looks like it is based on World of Tank modes. The music is annoying.

It looks like the circus just arrived in town!...lol!

what we need is Destroyer Command 2 to tie in with SH4 so none need a 2000 dollar machine to run it with all the bells and whistles as the first one with some extras like PTs,,, I don't mean to take from those that work so hard on surface units but they are based on a sub,, maybe some smarter guy than I can work on the game engine to give us a better experience on surface units ,, I did get the PT 109 to act like one but that thread got buried,, {Torps for PT 109} or something like that maybe someone can find it,, I wrote it over a year ago.

Too bad it is a MMO. I play video games because I want to enjoy myself away from other people.

Looks like a lot of the demo combat consists of trapping your enemy against shoreline. If the demo is real time game play (looks accelerated) only very young, inexperienced players will get anything out of this.

I can never get into those games because they lack historical match-ups, country vs country, just a free-for-all.

The downfall of all these games is that they basically try to be sea-quake, and they want some of WoW's cake. But WoW is a tactically challenging game whereas the clones often tend to be mindless.
