I am unable to locate the manual - and without the manual it is almost impossible to get past the Ship Recognition codebook to actuallu play the game - which has not received the best reviews. I guess I will ask for a refund...
Works great and all...but still has DRM from 1992 in it. Inexcusable. Should either come cracked or have the ID card scanned and included. No control card either. You do get the manual (inside the game folder), but I shouldn't have to search around to find a way to play a game I legally bought.
A very realistic sim from the time when games had huge manuals a la B17 the mighty eighth etc. You can tell that a lot of love and research went into making this game. The manual has a tutorial that is easy to follow along with. The forum has tips on how to turn on/off sound and the manual is included in the game files. Very fun but any youngster that didn't play these games back in the day won't have the patience to read thru the tutorial mission. Sad
terrible...............installed the game since steam promised there was a manual............there was none,and no hints on how to acess one............total waste of money...steam should be ashamed of themselves
With no manual available for this product it was a rather useless purchase. I’m still searching...
This one might be one of the more fun and action oriented simulations I ever played. I think that even today it aged greatly: The game is quite acurate, The AI is excelent and even changes depending the different personalities of every commander in charge, it is very competent giving orders and shooting, so if you decide to fully go the planning or the blasting everything that moves you can be reassured that the other bit of the game will be well handled. You can also go fully OCD and try handling everything if you are nuts enough. The action is very exciting and frentic, but also includes a totally strategic game mode where you can handle everything, from patrols to diseases and supply lines. Now the polemic about this port: The first thing you will notice is that there is no sound by default. That must be activated (I think it was either ctrl+s or alt+s anywhere after the game starts). The second one is that the game is not cracked, so you'll need to have the provided manual at a handy place. Now if you download the game as abandonware somewhere else you'll notice it is always cracked... the reason this one isn't is simply because it is a newer version which has some changes. This one has improved aiming calculations and some minor bugs fixed. If it is worth it it would be up to you. In any case, this game is 100% awesome!
Игра представляет собой симулятор боевого корабля в театре боевых действий 1942 года. Очень сложный симулятор. Не советую вообще начинать игру пока не прочтёте гигантское руководство к игре, которое вы найдёте в папке с игрой. Игра одна из немногих кто может похвастаться честным 3D в свой 1992 год. Только для ярых фанатов морских боёв.
Well it didnt aged good...and there is alot of problems. For the People who have no Sound Press ALT+S Ingame and then the start should be playing....well at all i cant recommand this game.
It may be old but it is not out of date...still loads of fun!
A dated naval simulation. However, its still fun. Some of the scenarios are bloodbatrhs. Its not a groundbreaking game But its still fun.
