Looks like pretty good graphics. How's the game-play? Are there any instrument panels? Are all the subs of that era?

Graphics are certainly not top of the line but more than enough and I found game-play very rewarding. Not a study sub sim but you are there, and decisions must be taken and consequences accepted smile
High replay value, not every mission is ever the same.
US Navy 1960s and 1980s subs so far.

You need to drive your boat via keyboard but this is apparently about to change on an upcoming patch with commands to crew being introduced, and maybe audio confirmation too, not 100% on this one tho. Anyway, the devs are very attentive to the community feedback. Will get even better I believe.

Grabbed those 2 pics off subsim. First attempt at direct commands to crew without the AWSD keyboard keys. Coming soon.

Cheers,
Slug

The new UI looks really great. We're also getting crew voices!

Such a great game. We need more like this!

Nice screens. smile

I'll be glad to get those commands. I've been destroyed by accidentally surfacing near enemy, and from running into the seafloor. More than once each.
Somebody needs to drive this sub, other than the guy who's too busy watching the incoming torpedoes (me).

"Torpeedo n dee watur!"

Nice shots. I think it looks great. Hopefully I can pick it up on sale at som epoint. I have to say the control panel style commands looks better to me and fits the overall presentation of a naval sim. It should still feel like direct control without a doubt because that's still basically what it is just with a nice user interface and maybe a couple extra mouse clicks.
