Favorite aspect of DW

OneShot · 06-18-06, 12:18 PM

My favourite aspect of DW is certainly the addition of the air plattforms, especially the P-3C Orion. They have been quite easy to learn, but are hard to master and the big bonus in my eyes ... no TMA I have to care about! Some might say Airplattforms are no challenge ... and thats right depending on your way of playing. If you try to aquire your opponent by pure passive means first and only revert to active in the final moments of an attack to get a good position fix then its tough ... on the other hand if you load up with DICASS to the hilt and drop active all around then its quite simple to find a sub, but then who plays like that?

But there are some things I don't like ... at all! For starters the non-detectable masts ... I can live with those pesky SAMs on the sub, no prob - IF the masts would be detectable, because then some tactics would simply be stupid (on behalf of the sub drivers) and using MAD in a MP game would actually not be a suicide maneuver as it is now (depending on your opponent). There are some other things, but no show stoppers - well to me.

Still, I truly like this game and will continue to play it (which reminds me I have to install it on the Laptop again).
