688(I) Hunter/Killer reviews and comments

The best and realistic Submarine simulation Games with Sub Command and especially Dangerous Waters. The Game is so Complex, but whoever has bitten himself in there is really Fun. Graphic, of course, goes by the way. Even Silent Hunter 3 can't keep up with it, although I have all The parts of the row as well.

This game is already noticed a lot of the years, of course the graphics do not make the game, but here the temporary barrier is too big. If This game interests you, I recommend you go directly to the Sub Command which is better, at least as far as the convenience of user interface usage is concerned. Or buy the 688 (I), Sub Command, Fleet Command, and Dangerous Waters package.

This is one of those really REALLY advanced submarine simulators that is extremely complicated at first and it is also highly recommended that you have the manual for the game to consult along with ingame glossary for more information about the subs, boats and what not. Surpisingly enough, despite being a 1997 release, it runs absolutely perfectly on my Windows 7 Ultimate stationary.

This Game is so Complex that it took me an Hour to understand the Functions of the whole Switch of the submarine. All in English, of course, and incomprehensible to ignorant of the Subject Area. So if you're really really a submarine fan. Then leave it anyway. It's just not fun and takes forever to drive from A to B, even if you can run the Time faster. Don't

Early years 1990, first Simu experience of this type with http://www.Listal.com/game/688-sub-attack-31636: failed but after reading qqs books of Tom Clancy (in pursuit of Red October and especially Red Storm), I retted and there the foot. 688 (I ° Hunter/killer released almost 10 years later has the same strengths as his illustrious predecessor but adds a better interface. It is necessary to cling, to document, not to be afraid to track a sonar track for hours, briefly like the simulations "realistic" I find this game on steam, after losing my CD of the time. Dive without hesitation!

Excellent underwater simulation game with a lot of detail in equipment and techniques of tracking, identification and calculation of firing solution. But... as for the other games in the Sonalyst Pack:-If you have trouble with English, drop it,-if you hate to do tutorial or read a manual, drop it (unless you are radarist IRL, the use of comm rooms does not improvise),-if you are not a cado r in DIY Setup to run antedilucome games on modern bikes, let it go,-if an outdated Visual and interface you are rebuting, drop it,-if you loved the simplicity and rhythm of a crash dive and hated the complexity and the softness of a silent Hunter, drop it.
