I bought the game a few days ago and here's my first impressions. I played it on the kindle HD fire. I love the look and feel of the game. It is very easy to pick up and get into it. The gameplay itself is faster pace than a desktop PC. The AI escorts (naval vessels, not hookers) are pretty tough. It is challenging to hit them and escape from them. It did remind me a lot of AotD. It was fun to watch the escorts latch onto your decoy and work it over with DCs. I loved the war patrol concept! Totally random and dynamic; great variety of ships and contacts that make up the convoys. The map very is also very well done imo. I'm impressed with the sonar reflection animation when the escorts are hunting for you. The coolest part of the game, I thought was the sound.:K aleun_Wink: Lots of great details. The only thing I didn't really like was, I found turning in the periscope screen a little cumbersome, especially when you are evading escorts. McBee review: : Kaleun_Salute: Well worth the money.

Re: Crash Dive game
Thanks for the Heads up about this game and the review.
Will look into it, down the track. I have to admit, I haven't played Aces of the Deep, etc. Er..! alittle, behind the 8 ball, on some games, to date. (non Sub ones, too.) Pardon, to you all for that. You will just have to Heel Haul me, Tie me to the Mast, for punishment. Or worse still, KP duty (kitchen "patrol"?) for the next 6 months. No, no, not cleaning out the "Head" for six months and the pipes, too. AAArrrggghh...! Anything, but that, Oh please. I am still so badly stuck in SH 5, as per you don't want to know. So bad, I am playing other games, presently. All not Naval, or Land warfare games. (er..! for fun, Dr Who. Ha! as an example.) And what's this WOTA one??? May I throw in, that I am sure you are all aware on Steam a game coming called "Victory at Sea." Which??? Kinda looks similar?? Now, I am not having a go at Crash Dive or Naval Fleet 2. Just that this Steam one, looks similar???? Check it out, and see what you think. Take care, all. "Now hear, this, Mermaids off the Port Bow, Whoo Hoo! |

Hi!
Great game indeed. I gave it a shot and I have to say that I saw more different ways a ship sunk than I did in ALL hours I played SH5. And the destroyers are much cleverer and more dangerous. I start to push away the feeling that something was terribly wrong with my mod list. Christian |
