As far as bugs go, there aren't too many and Dangerous Waters has been pretty stable for me. The major ones such as the DSRV problem and most of the other issues I've seen can be fairly easily avoided through scenario design once you know how to do it. The mods LWAMI or RA fix a few (except for the hard coded ones).

As far as multiplayer goes, there are still a quite a few avenues for that. I believe that Seawoves is still around. They do MP games a lot and there are plenty of people here on Subsim who would be glad to get into a nice MP shoot-em-up.

Well it's... Pretty good... Pretty good...

Pretty damn good actually, with the LWAMI 3.10 and RA/DWX 1.1 mods now available. I assume you know about the old 1.04 patch which fixed a lot of the original game flaws, but these two mods really make the game worth playing. Honestly, this game has never been better and is by far the best you can get in the genre.

I whole heartedly agree.

I play Dangerous Waters more than I play Silent Hunter III, which actually gets boring for me after a while.
