Default LOL ! Great video !

Some language in the subtitles fwiw. May make a little more sense if you're into flight sims, but a lot of it applies to any sim genre

I'm a hard core flight simmer and I knew it all. Luftwhiners, Oleg, 8fps (3 here lol) and all the other things.

Thanks so much!

It would not take a lot to swap flight sim for naval sim in the film.Perhaps this is a scene from a secret camera at Sonalysts as the employees agonise over why the combat pack has not been released and why we cannot have a platform changer for DW!

I'll give you one. I can't believe Sonalysts is again attempting to rehash the same navalsimengine that they've been using for the past 10 years or so, but this time not by revamping it and selling a new game (DW). This time they are simply tweaking compatibility and reselling these titles. Not even the database has changed very much since Fleet Command. Both SC and DW were simply the FC engine with sub, and eventually surface and air interfaces added. I'm fairly sure someone on the Sonalysts board told SCS to squeeze all they can from that engine and do it as cheaply as possible. I've bought every Sonalysts title since 688(I), and I have to tell you I've lost faith in the franchise. I REALLY wish a company would come along that would compete with Sonalysts, as they're the only show in town when it comes to a modern naval sim.

PD

Linton, I think the silence speaks for itself... no one can be bothered anymore. At least that's my take on it..
Cheers Porphy
