Default A Great New Thing About The New DW MP Demo...

... something that i've wanted to see in a sub sim for the longest time.

first of all... for those who missed it... a new multiplayer demo is out

... but best thing about this, you can now have multiple players crew a single sub in a coop multiplayer mission...

... just like the real thing

Quote:
With the addition of GameSpy Arcade support, "S.C.S. – Dangerous WatersTM" includes standard multi-player and multi-station functionality. Thus, players will be able to compete against each other or collaborate as a team. When utilizing "multi-station" mode in multi-player, up to 30 players can team up and operate individual crew stations on the SAME platform to achieve mission objectives.
this is something i've really wanted to see for the longest time... and as soon as a group gets up to doing this, i'd love to hear just how well it works

This has been a MP feature of DW since it was released in v1.0.

And it works great, especially with TeamSpeak.

brilliant suggestion but i really can't right now, SH3 has taken up enough of my time, and i'd really like to get my sim done before the year is out...

i got so excited upon reading the blurb because the multiplayer coop crew concept is a biggee in my stuff... and i had no idea that it was already an element in DW...

cool...

now imagine the same concept in 3D where you can see and interact with other crew members
