A Cold Waters question

In practice, it's hard to avoid having to go to the 3D view occasionally (if only because it automatically shows up if you switch out of the tac display)...sil but it sure is fun watching your quarry get a big hole in its side.

I don't think any RSR fan will be disappointed from a gameplay standpoint.

Edit: some significant differences -- no Seawolf, no Sea aLance (I've found this to be huge, as the Russkies still have Silex missle-torpedoes that they can drop on you), and a 1968 campaign as well.

Does the 3D mode mimic the Tactical map mode? In other words, does the 3D mode let you "cheat," and get additional information that you would
not get just using your sensors? Like you can do with Silent Hunter 3 when you switch to exterior views.

I'd rather NOT "cheat," or at least be able to the "cheating" off.
