War on the Sea

Subs are useless. The enemy sees the torpedoes as soon as they are fired you have no chance of hitting with them. Enemy subs have homing torps that cant miss. American fighters are pointless and can't hurt anything. ♥♥♥ fighters are industructable and sink destroyers with their guns alone. The enemy knows where you are at all times your units will miss aircraft carriers and battleships until they are so close Helen Keller could point them out. Way out of balance and complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Seems like every update just messes something else up. Over 100 hours in this game I really wanted to like it. I can't I'm done.

This feels like the devs at Killerfish said "Oh, we have Cold Waters, let's try to tack a half-arsed RTS on top of that." There are so many frustrating elements with the game. It doesn't seem like the devs have played their own game or wanted it to be good. Some examples: - There are no indicators for remaining ordnance on planes. This is super basic, but still missing. - The interface is mostly copied from Cold Waters, and in Cold Waters it makes sense. This makes for a frustrating UI in this game. Leading units is tedious. Handling groups is tedious. Seeing what current orders units have is tedious, because you can't trust the sliders. Seeing information about targets is tedious, and so on and so forth. Very poor UX in most respects. - You need to exit to the main menu to access settings. - The unit AI is pretty bad, but controlling units yourself is just as bad. If at least one of them were good you could ignore the other, but alas. - There are no carrier-ops mid-battle. Would have been fairly simple to implement and is sorely needed. These are just a few of the things bothering me so far. With a few more months of development and a lot more QoL, this could have been a great title. As it stands it falls very short of its potential.
