Actually, the "fleet" part of the snail game is pretty good, but the UI is tedious af and it's another Russian company.

We all know how that ends up now don't we? Ultimate admiral dreadnoughts is from the same company. I would be very careful and do your research when looking into that one.

7,039 Skpstr Members 34,409 posts 10,768 battles Report post #11 Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) I always assumed there were plenty of good naval games out there, assuming you want a fleet-based singleplayer RTS. Of course, if that's what you want, why are you playing this in the first place? Edited July 3, 2021 by Skpstr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Constellation, CV rocket changes, CV rebork, captain skill rebork, no. And that's where you, me, and everyone here, can't speak for everyone. You Can easily find posts requesting Italian battleships. You can easily find posts asking for nerfs to rockets... All these people who come in here and saying "The community requests this" are speaking of their own little community in their discord, their twitch, YouTube, or CC community, not the populus. I think the only popular idea, that would get 75% of players backing, is for something to happen with CV-Ship interaction. That and more maps.

135 [WOLFC] puckhead77 Members 254 posts 16,213 battles Report post #15 Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) I am really looking forward to Sea Power : Naval Combat in the Missile Age Still gonna be awhile, maybe a year, but once thats out, I am too. I should have all lines here up to 10 and barring other changes, I think its about run its course for me. I am not looking forward to subs here and the ships/classes being added just flat out dont appeal to me. Edit to add that doesnt mean I'll never play again, I still go back fire up CSGO, but it just means this wont be my main game that spend $$$ and time on.

New maps would help out tremendously, for me anyway. 200+ ships on the same ole tired maps is well... Getting old. Honestly, it's one of the top reasons why I quit buying any new ships.

Unfortunately, if there were a credible alternative out there I'd imagine WG would be a lot less cavalier about those sorts of things, so they didn't lose out en masse to the competition.

People also asked for a Lexington class CC. People also asked the RTS CVs to be reworked. People also asked for rocket planes to be nerfed. I don't recall requests for captain skills to be reworked, but I do recall the occasional request to have captain skill point maximum raised to 21. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

War on the Sea looks pretty fun if you are into historical stuff. For the cost of a single ship in WeeGee's fantasy grind fest (WoWs), you get ALL the ships in the USN and IJN. You have individual control of EVERYTHING, including attacks by single scout planes, subs, etc. It's amazing that a single game can include so much - the entire Pacific campaign, playable from both sides - in such a detailed and fun way (subs alone work WAY better than the trash that WeeGee is trying to get working - see for yourself: https://youtu.be/PtuXYOZ7AHQ?t=947) compared to the cost in both time and money that WG wants from its 'players'.
