A Question about Ship Simulator 2006

Postby visualchaosfx » Sat Feb 10, 2007 11:08 pm

Has anyone on here played or tried this game out? I have viewed the trailer for it but and it looks good but just wanting to know if its worth at least downloading the demo and stuff.

EDIT: Ah crap. I posted this in the wrong section. Can any mod move this to the "Computer Games & Software" section please?

Hopefully its not just a simulation where you just drive a boat around and stuff. It should have points on plotting out courses and stuff.

The game isn't as great as it looks...

...you only get a few ports and a island and stuff (so no transatlantic journies...)

...you can't sink

...you can fly (I should do a video about that...)

...and worst of all, customer support never did get that "support" part down

But the game does look good, and features a good variety of ships and stuff...

Piloting a ship from continent to continent at 30 knots with nothing but water to look at, all at real time doesn't sound that fun. Flying a cigar tube at 30,000+ feet is even more exciting than that... ;D

...'trubble is, Andrew...

Cigar Tubes aren't advertised as having extra "Stuff" included in the Package...

...you have to have extra "Stuff", otherwise it's no good... ;)...!

A Ship, with Sails 'n stuff, is cool... :-*...!
