Ah well since the reviewer and the developers seem to had their problems back in their Harpoon modders days i have to ask myself how unbiased this review really is?

About as unbiased as the HHQ page you link, they are far from innocent and unbiased either.

Didn´t said they are but since these guys defiantly have a history imho it was not the best choice for a reviewer!

If you find an inaccuracy or falsehood within the review, please report it. I am more than happy to provide clarification on any concerns.

For example:

Actually, I can point to one glaring error that totally unhinges the entire review:
"Most displays such as Weapons, Sensors, and Contacts can only be activated via the mouse-click on a button."
should read:
"Most displays such as Damage Control and Contacts can only be activated via the mouse-click on a button."

Is the game flawless? No, of course it´s not! Is it cluncky at some parts? For sure it is!
It has afaik a 3 man dev team for gods sake!
Is it overpriced? I would say yes and i am 100% sure the devs would do better if they had another publisher but i bit the bullet since there are no alternatives for a game with this background and scale! Even not Harpoon, but that is mho.
All i am saying is that someone who has a tarnished past with the devs should not do a review on a site like simhq! It´s like you had a run in with a guy in the past and it turns out he´s the new building inspector for your house! There will always be the question, is he an hardass to anyone or just to me because of the past!

My past is untarnished, so I had no problem writing the review for SimHQ or anyone else.

I'll say it, again. If you have found an inaccuracy within the review, please feel free to point it out.

Imho the point is not if you made valid points, i am sure there where/are the point is you shouldn´t have done the review in the first place because of the history you have with the devs! I bet you didn´t had a problem reviewing the game!

Your first link leads to the wonderful 404. Try http://www.simhq.com/naval-combat/co...s-preview.html although it is the beta.

Your second link is private, so I for one can't see it.

SimHQ is mainly about car races sims, flight sims, FPS, some Tanks sims. They are not a group about Naval Simulation. Look at their forum and you will see what is paramount for them.
