Does the Sonlysts team abandon DW
Regarding DW, it has not been updated for a long time, which seems to suggest some degree of stagnation or abandonment?

You're talking about a 20 year old game mate... Are you seriously expecting active development ?

The company still exists https://www.sonalysts.com/ though it looks like they just do high-end defense work.

Chazly mentioned years ago, they released teaser images of updated models (Burkes, etc.) I think on their Facebook - for a possible DW2, but that was closed down many years ago...

I see they're looking to hire a surface warfare analyst (combat experience required) if anyone's keen!

yeah, they shifted the focus to miliatry software away from games (More money in military)

I hope they will come back to the roots some day. The coding guys are very interessed in this, the Bosses not so.

They currenty work on a program calles Sim Engine II, which is basically Dangerous Waters 2.0 but with the focus on Serious Gaming aka military simulation.
