Subsim review of Crash Dive - Page 3

Red Devil · 09-07-14, 02:43 PM

Very good review, but not for me. I have tremendous respect for the WW2 submariners but I will not take an 'enemy' boat out against my own ships. And before anyone says its 'just a game' - I have done decades of research into the Battle of the Atlantic and know all about the Allied civilian casualties and how many of them died. And how 75% of the U boats crews never saw port again.

Thanks Neal!! I stumbled on this a few weeks ago and was very pleasantly surprised. I urge any droid users to grab this. I really don't think you will be dissapointed!

El Dude · 09-07-14, 03:36 PM

Good news! Not sure if i will buy it but good to know that submarine games/sims are still being made

I have Sh3 and 5 still on my hd, though havent played for a year or so. Maybe its time again for a bit hunting on the ocean

Thanks for the email Neal! I'll have to download it on my iPad and get back into subsimming. Glad you still keep the site running

Hi, folks! I haven't been here for a long time.
Is crash Dive playable on a smartphone? I'm concerned about playing it on 4" display...

Onkel Neal · 09-07-14, 05:51 PM

Thanks, guys, for the kind words.

Gumby, I played the game on an LG G2, it has a 5." screen. The game is very playable on that size, although I was happier once I got the game on my 7" Kindle.

Gumby · 09-07-14, 06:04 PM

I'll give it a try.

Gerald · 09-07-14, 06:30 PM

Fascinating,and smooth review.

Chooky88 · 09-07-14, 06:46 PM

Thanks for the email and review. I'll definitely buy this one. In Kalbarri for a fishing holiday. I timed it with perfection for what the news call a 'once a year storm'. It's turned into a drinking holiday! At least now I have some time to play my new game :-)

Malakie · 09-07-14, 10:33 PM

This game has you running a nazi germany uboat right? No American or British subs?

Cpt.Nautilus · 09-08-14, 02:46 AM

Thanks for the review. I'll see how this works on a tablet.

I have a 2-year-old Asus Transformer Pad TF300. Any idea how this game is going to work on it? Otherwise I could try on my brand new Galaxy S5 but I'm a bit concerned of playing a subsim on a small screen...

SilentOtto · 09-08-14, 05:02 AM

Not my gaming platform, but any news about new sims are good news, also a reason to drop by, had been quite long for me!

Thanks Onkel!

Funny, when you did the review for Battle Fleet 2 some days ago I thought "He should do a review for Crash Dive". I almost offered you to do it myself, but then got distracted.

beresford · 09-08-14, 05:47 AM

Any chance of seeing a Windows or Xbox compatible version? My tablet runs Windows 8 and there is a shortage of strategy/sim games.

ReallyDedPoet · 09-08-14, 07:09 AM

Nice, I'll fire this up on the iPad at some point
