Sp Future Options?!
Posted: Fri Aug 08, 2003 8:23 pm
Will I be able to control the battleships carriers etc... in SP mode??!!
I really don't want to play in MP but' date='reading some of the threads here,it looks as if future support for this game will be maily for MP!!...
It's a great game though so far...
It would be nice to have AI crew models controlling the various stations...It's looks very bare with and strange to see the guns firing without a crewmember present...It would be nice to crew the ships in the way that the B17 bomber sim was crewed!!...
Let's have virtual walkthroughs of the subs/ships....captains's cabin,along the deck,engine room etc....
BTW,it would be great to be able to control damage control,fire,floods,work in the engine room,etc.........
So far,I'm very impressed with the game!!....
Well done!!!

Battleships will only be controlable in the multiplayer.
There has been some debates on chacters on the ships' date=' as far as I can remember the DEVs said no.
Walk the ship/sub lenght will be added in multiplayer (maybe also in a future single player patch).
Damage control will be added for multiplayer too.
Dont quote me on any of the above[/quote']
Capital ships will likely only be player controlled in multiplayer. Same with Carriers. But yes we will continue to upgrade the single-player game.
Once all the different version are out' date=' we will release a free "add-on" to the single-player game - it's a secret what you will be getting. =)
Characters on the ships is currently not planned, but it is a continuing discussion point. If we find a way to represent crew that meets our criteria then it's possible they may appear in the future.
Walking the sub has been a goal from the beginning - not sure it's going to happen for some time, lots and lots of other work to do first.
A more extensive damage/fx/control system is under design right now.[/quote']
