Its fun, has potential, but fails to meet it
for one- the single player is very boring. and since its a "rts" of sorts, the fact it has NO skrimish is very very very disapointing.
you dont get to pick your ship load out. which is totaly lame. you only get to pick a slot which has a pre-determined ship lay out. (multiplayer)
in single player you just have watever is scripted.
for multi player, what they should have done is a rainbow six style upgrade.
everytime you battle you should get xp. earning yourself ranks. each rank should unlock a ship you can use.
then on multiplay, you should be able to select the ship you want. not just a pretermined set up...
asides from the many flaws in the set up, the game play is AWESOME.
the graphics are nice
the water is nice
the ships are pretty
the gunning system is easy to learn, hard to master (good imo)
tons of ships and cvs
good balance (could be better but for the most part ever unit has a counter unti)
fun to play
online community is older and more mature.
but the downside is the limited choices for the maps and ship set ups....
had they done an open style pick (like most rts where you get to build watever you want) then the game would be a top seller.
too bad they blew it....
but i still play it.
