(More customer reviews)I just installed this yesterday and started getting into it. Installation itself went smoothly. The game tells you upfront what kind of performance to expect given your computer's capabilities. As for the game there's 11 training missions that cover the controls, although since they teach the keystroke commands I forgot some of them quickly. The best thing so far is that the interface is quite simple to control all the different vessels. For someone who is interested in playing a submarine game but doesn't want to spend 40 hours learning how a real sub works (e.g. Silent Service III) this is the game for you. What can be considered both a plus and minus, an example of this approach is that the sub has 4 choices of depth: surface, periscope, deep, and too deep to spot but too deep to stay long. Bombing has been simplified as well. However, as a real-time strategy game I expect some learning curve involved, although it seems straightforward.
The realism is there. You get vivid depictions of ships, planes, and islands. There are crew members milling about your ship while you blast away at the enemy. The rudders and ailerons move on your plane.
I haven't played multiplayer but I am concerned that we have to use Gamespy exclusively. Also, there's a third party service that keeps the game updated. Not thrilled about installing that either. We'll see how it goes.
