One other issue of mine is that single-player missions apparently are the same style as those in Silent Hunter III: You're simply put in front of the target and told to approach, aim, and pull the trigger. "There's your gun, there's your target, now shoot". With all due respect, I'd prefer deeper, more complex missions that had you receive your orders, hunt down your target, and then attack.

All my critisism aside, though this is looking to be a great title.

And what's "Go To Game", I wonder? A handy quick-start option?

1:40: I hope those randomly flashing lights are temporary.
2:44: The map doesn't look very good. Hoping it's W. I. P.

I was sitting in the presentation too, the Version we saw was a newer with more features, also the map looked different, better and high-res

And yes these flashing lights are WIP!

@All

I compressed those In-Game Footage Video, you need DivX 6.40 and it works!!!

If you have problems playing with DivX or DivX Player de-install it and download K-Lite Codec Pack, install it with MPC and your problems will be gone.

Here is a 56k-friendlier version of the gameplay video, it´s 54MB instead of the original 200MB:

Blimey. Those orange explosions and that smoke. and that water. Out of this world! I sure hope the Pacific theatre will be as exciting as the Atlantic.

Redwine · 12-04-06, 07:45 AM

Lot of good improvements, as all world navigable, canon shell holes modelated...

but nothing about thermal layers and baththermograph. :hmm:
