That's the thing. It tries to be a JFC remake--a naval warfare simulation that has the accessibility that something like Harpoon (which admittedly I haven't tried, due to trepidation at its complexity) lacks, along with 3D visuals. Unfortunately the visuals are awful, but that wouldn't be a dealbreaker if the simulation aspect actually simulated the behavior of real units in combat.
I haven't had problems from a technical standpoint, but I also haven't tried multiplayer. The campaign isn't particularly good, though, plus the lame and clichéd 'story' elements are both unnecessary and distracting.
I'm hoping this game gets the love it deserves in the form of patching and modding, otherwise I'll be sticking with JFCw/NWP for a while.
On that note, how much more complex is Larry Bond's stuff than Jane's/NWAC?
