Just starting a campign, had a few singles and my first convoy attack, maybe 4 hours a leisurely play just feeling out. Have played every other SH series.
I like it so far. Yeah it's different. Well I've waited for something different. Still learning my way around and at first missed not having the hot key go to a station sytem, but now it's part of the immersion having to go around the ship and MUCH more relalistic. Maybe they should add radio stations so you could call the EX from the bridge and lookouts from controlroom etc. Learning to use the systems tabs to get info I need.
Did the old gauge mod and like that but may go back if someone mods the CO2/Bat/Fuel/Air quadrant to that control panel. Yeah a few more things they could do, but I like the difference between this and the old series, had a blast heading through the middle of a convoy and then dodging a destroyer that showed up.
Give it time and learn your way around. If you don't like it because it's different oh well, I think lots will. It's not SH4.5.
