5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, 24 Dec 2006
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This is a surperb game, but not for the casual gamer. The graphics are fantastic, it sounds great, and the enemy AI is (almost always) pretty damn smart. The fun of sneaking your boat into a good firing position, setting a torpedo to run just below the enemy's keel and then seeing the magnetic fuse break that ship's back is not to be underestimated. You will need some patience, it takes a while to learn all the tricks, but an excellent game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perhaps a little niche, 28 Nov 2006
By A. Hodrien - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
I'd say the previous reviewer didn't quite get this game. Obviously this game is slow without time compression on, as it simulates real-time submarine warfare. There's a lot of sea, not many boats, and submarines are slow... Time compression is unsurprisingly provided up to 1024x...

The crew don't seem to get tired at full acceleration to avoid you having to overly micromanage, but you will find crew getting tired during long engagements. Best avoid long engagements...

Depending on the mode, the sonar operator's detected contact lines will appear on the main map. Torpedo aiming is a difficult art, and requires careful management of the sub's direction and some gut feeling as to what manoeuver a ship is likely to attempt. Don't expect them to behave like photon torpedoes (although the later wake-homing torpedoes are fabulous against warships).

It's an odd game, and I think it's somewhat heavy on realism and low on fun, but it's still a sound game. If only it didn't use starforce copy protection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprise find..., 22 Jan 2008
By Mr. Stuart J. Hickson "DiscoStu" (JERSEY (no, not the New one)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Graphics are very good indeed, as is the realism (although my submarine warfare experience is, thankfully, zero). It is a game that requires much patience and you can return from missions lasting several days without even having any enemy engagament! But the fun of sneaking into the middle of a convoy then picking off boats at will is very satisfying. Just don't let the enemy start pinging you!! Hours of enjoyment for the patient amongst you.
