@kapitanfred: It's more kind of a fleet command game but you will be able to control single units of your task force as well if you want to jump into some action. It's not an arcade game but not a hardcore sim either. We think it's important to do the right balance. Realism usually isn't fun for the most.

@Polak2: Thank you! Are you the one from Discord as well with that nick? :)

Oh sweet baby Jesus YES!!!!!!!

I'm still playing Fleet Command 2-3 times a week and, while the core gameplay is still strong (not too hardcore, not too arcadey), the graphics have never been it's strong point so to see a new FC-style game coming out with modern graphics means that I'm over the moon.

I've already added it to my Steam wishlist!!!

Woow, this new sim looks amazing I can't wait to play it. I wanted to do a couple of questions but i've been reading the topic and I looked the anwsers I've been looking for..... The back of MicroProse to the business plus they're involved in the development of the game :rock:

Just saw this!

...and always wanted an up to date graphically pleasing version of Fleet Command.

That the Cold Waters guys are doing it is a bonus as I trust them to come up with a more elegant UI as FCs was a kludge.

Will be keeping an eye on this one.

Questions for the devs. re: USN carrier air wings;
- Will the EA-6B Prowler jamming aircraft be modeled?
- Will the F/A-18 Hornet aircraft be modeled?

The EA-6 will be in, the F/A-18 eventually. :)

Hello Xaron !
I have some question to ask.
First, will this game available on GOG ?
Second, will Kuznetsov carrier (i believe the russian call this thing heavy aircraft carrying cruiser) and Orlan heavy cruiser appear in this game ? If yes, which weapon configuration will the orlan cruiser class get ? I believe there're 2 different weapon configurations: 1 is 96 48n6 missile on older ship and 1 is 48 48n6 missile and 46 48n6E2on pyotr velikiy.

On my Steam wishlist already! These images look sensational. Addition of F/A-18 would be an essential for me. So excited about this. And the return of Microprose! They got me into this genre when I was a kid.
Keep teasing us with these images :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

The RA-5C Vigilante plays a central role as the all-weather, long-range eyes of the fleet in your inventory, with a reconaissance system analogous to that of the SR-71 Blackbird.

Fleet defense duties are handled by the F-14 Tomcat, with its powerful AWG-9 radar and AIM-54 Phoenix missiles, capable of engaging up to six targets simultaneously, and intended to counter the Soviet cruise missile threat you are likely to encounter in the game.

We've also added the Kitty Hawk class of supercarriers to give these planes something to operate from while our Nimitz model is in drydock for a little overhaul. And for those of you comrades who are into surface raiding and fire support, here's a Sverdlov cruiser somewhere in a Norwegian fjord.

Apart from that we totally revorked environment lighting and clouds system.

Another blog post. (https://store.steampowered.com/newsh...94871659375337)

More of a technical update for sure but those videos look extremely impressive.

This is the kind of sim I am really interested in.

Looking forward to it! :salute:

Sailed in USS Constellation CVA-64 1975-77. Worked the Flight Deck-ATO with all these great Naval Aircraft. "Connie" would be my choice for Sea Powers in-game "Birdfarm". Make a Old Sailor Happy.

It would sure be nice to have the oil-fired Kitty Hawk class as well.

WAAAAYYY back in the 90's I toured the JFK and got to see the two F-14 MiG killers on the hangar deck. That was some ****.
