I've been gathering information on Cold Waters ever since receiving that email from Onkel Neal, and i've seen some videos on youtube.
Even though I've been pleasantly surprised by it, I feel it may be a little too simplistic for my taste, as there's pratically no TMA involved, the distances are way too close for comfort (25kyards), and the overal gameplay a bit too arcady (especially the torpedo dodging part).
What do you guys think?

It's a sub commander simulation, not a sub stations simulation. As a captain. I have the rest of the crew to do all the stuff you mentioned. I may watch over their shoulder at time (that's why you have the waterfall and dive control). The torp evasion is very accurate (go watch Jive's video) the 3D view is there to help inexperience player to visualize the 3D space. Don't use it and just use the tactical plot if you want. That's all I use most of the time. I just wish I can get the Torp depth info on the tac plot with having the water condition hud selected. I do wish we can start scenario further away though. Maybe the Dev can give us an option for when the contact use 1st picked up.
