25 years later, I've got a PC, and I've played a variety of games. Most combat sim
games had system requirements way beyond the capacity of my Gateway 500C.
I noticed Dangerous Waters, and figured it was a good value, plenty of platforms to try out.
However, I know ZERO about real-life miltary technology or terminology. That sort of stuff is pretty dry fare for a game. I wasn't thrilled to see the game had evidently emphasied authenticity over playability.
But, worst of all, I cannot find the in-game tutorials that are supposedly on disc two.

Go to the game Editor:
And make yourself a simple one on one mission, sub verses sub, this is what i do to teach myself the game as i find the campaign missions buggy and im not fully 100% uber commander. Two subs one the Seawolf the other the Kilo or Akula, just make sure your zoomed in very close before making the mission nothing like creating a cool mission only to realise the enemy sub you placed is 10,000 miles away from you! Unkowningly your just spent the last 4 hrs playing the mission while pulling your hair out trying to find that REALLY quite Seawolf!. You never will shes way to far away!.
I have found the Kilo is the best sub for me to learn in, its not all that easy and trying to go up against a Seawolf its pretty hard as she will usually find me first but i have read on here of players easily sinking a Seawolf with a Kilo, im yet to do it
. In one mission i created the seawolf found me shot of a couple of torpedoes yet i still couldn't find her!!!
Then when u start getting better at it, make your missions a bit harder, add in some destroyers, helicopters roaming around, maybe a carrier or supertanker just for target practice & have a couple of seawolfs guarding her and some friendlies just to piss of your sonar man or more like, to confuse yourself.
