How old were you when you started playing submarine sims?
 

Like I said in my little introduction, i actually started playing when I was 7!

Silent Service, I think by Microprose or pose......

back when you got a nice box and a large manual....

I probably picked it up around 7-9 honestly now that I think about it. We had an old copy of SH2 and I always loved diving and surfacing.

Fast forward a few years later, I got really really hardcore into SH2 again...I bought SH3, 4, DW, Enigma Rising Tide, etc.

I regret nothing. :woot:

I discovered Silent Service around 1987, which means I was 37 at the time.

Silent Service, I was 30, but I played a U-Boat sim on the BBC Micro prior to that. Can't remember it's name.

Best regards.

Around 12-13, started in 2013.

Silent Service.............. about 13.

688 attack sub at 11 or 12, in my old 386 pentium! Then latter played Janes 688(I) hunter/killer with more understanding!

Too old to remember now but just a tiddler.

Probably on Atari or something years ago, but I was hooked after Fast Attack.

I can't be so old when I started to play submarine Sims

In our local store they had this sub-something-arcade, where you put a dime in the machine and you looked into a periscope and had to hit ships on the surface.

Got a little older and lost interest in it, until some years later where I got a machine called Phillips 7400(can't really remember the name it's like a play station)
there I got many games(cartridge) among these I had a submarine game.

played on that machine until it was time for my time in the military, had not so much interest playing for fun, when I was doing it for real in the military-sort of.

Many years later I saw a commercial for a game called Destroyer Command. I bought it and in the folder there was something about a game Silent Hunter II

So I bought that too.

Today I have Silent Hunter II, III, IV, V, Dangerous Water, Subcommand(somewhere) Fleet Command and Command. And of course Destroyer Command

Silent Service on Commodore 64 (cassette of course :O:). I was probably around 6 or 7. :hmmm:

I'm too old to remember.:doh:
My first taste of sub simming was SH 3. Whenever that came out.

Welcome to the boat Tiddles.:salute:

Boy, if that nick don't have potential for a fatal fatfinger...:huh:

About 6 or 7 I'd wager.

The first time I played a subsim I must've been 10 or so. Played a random misson in AOTD at a friends flat. My first subsim that I owned was SH1, next was AOTD, than SH2 and SH3. Haven't tried SH4 yet, graphics are marvelous and I guess with right mods gameplay is too, it's just that I dread setting it all up.
