Sonarman · 06-08-06, 11:16 AM

Get over to the Ship simulator 2006 site to get the demo.

The game is due out in Europe next week and in the US sometime in August.
European gamers can purchase it though the Amazon UK link in the Subsim store.

So anybody already tried this demo ? How good/bad is it ? Sailing model ? Graphics ? Let us know please.

Downloading now!

Safe-Keeper · 06-09-06, 07:36 AM

Y-E-S!
I've been dreaming of this for years, and I hadn't even heard of it!

Downloading as soon as possible!

First Congress turns down the bigot "anti-homo-marriage" constitutional amendment, then this! Gawd, this is a good day!

Hope there's a sailing model!

Oh, and an accurate depiction of European cities (I'm eagerly awaiting a Europe-edition, allowing me to sail into an accurate Bergen, Norway, complete with Bryggen and everything).

GOOD day!

This was way overdue!
btw notice how the ShipSimulator 2006 font is the same as FlightSimulator by microsoft, yet I can't see microsoft anywhere on the shipsim.com...are they trying to fool us? :hmm:

Demo looks pretty good. I might get this.

You're all joking, aren't you? I saw this game on budget, for the price of a couple of sandwiches.

Since this game is not out yet, it probably was not the one you saw....

The game has been out in Germany for some time, the forthcoming release on 16th June is the new English language version with many added features and yet they are releasing it at a very attractive price of £19.99 in the UK (£14.99 +p&p via the Amazon link in the Subsim store.) They plan on releasing in the US in August.

Also the talk is of a 2007 version around Jan /Feb with waves,night, the abillity to sail between ports etc, depending on sales of this title.

The game is out here in Germany since March, I bought it ...and after some hours of play it became boring and went to Ebay ...this version was not worth the money. Virtual Sailor is the better choice for a civil ship game.

You are right...I read what it was and thought it sounded boring as hell. Would never buy it personally. Anyway, if you wait 6 months you'll pick it up for £1.99 in the bargain bin.
