Sea Power : Naval Combat in the Missile Age

你这游戏不把模组问题弄明白，再不把玩家与模组作者当人看，你游也就这样了，所有想玩这个游戏的人，制作组乱改机制，导致大量mod失效，影响玩家社区并死不悔改！区别对待其他国家阵营，美国就很强了为什么还发阿拉斯加级核动力巡洋舰，这种纯架空船？苏联想要个巴库号，你们制作组说都有1160了还要什么巴库，加里宁与伏龙芝也不给，那美国人都有MK26型的提康德罗加了为什么还发垂发版？制作组缺少总话事人，过于散漫。总之不要买！ Your game is doomed if you don't get the modding issues sorted out and keep treating players and mod authors like dirt. The dev team arbitrarily changes core mechanics, breaking countless mods, damaging the community, and they refuse to admit their mistakes. You blatantly favor certain nations over others. The US is already overpowered, yet you still hand them the purely fictional Alaska-class nuclear‑powered cruiser. When the USSR asks for the Baku, your team says, "You already have the 1160, why do you need the Baku?" And you also deny them the Kalinin and the Frunze. But then the Americans already have the Mk.26 Ticonderoga, and you still give them the VLS version? This team has no real leader and is completely undisciplined. In short – don't buy it!

PLEASE GOD FIX IT THE PHALANX CANT EVEN SHOOT A SUBSONIC JET OUT OF THE AIR RIGHT NOW. Also the community is ♥♥♥♥. Don't bother suggesting improvements or pointing out issues. It's all skill issues even when the devs confirm it's bugged or broken. Smol edit: If you want the summed up opinion without reading all this stupid complaining BS below (and god I Don't blame you): Oh my god I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate this game, it's the best thing I've ever played and I cannot stop playing it even when the RNG screws me so bad it makes me want to wring the devs-.... laundry out.... It's very good but oh my god I can't stand games that balance stuff in order for the game to be "fair". Who would win? a small soviet 3 ship missile fleet vs 36 Harpoon missiles Or 2 ♥♥♥♥♥♥ long rage barely functional seeker Granits soviet era surplus ASMs against a modern USN task force centered on a missile cruiser. This game is so good. So why do you have to give the AI such BS RNG? There is no chance in hell where 36 (it was actually 48 but it sounds implausible enough, plus some tomahawks SSN launched from behind) 6/10 stop letting Eastern European developers balance soviet armament. Sorry reality (reality 50 years ago at that, like let go) makes your soviet-simp-state bad. And the thing is? In reality at the time they were matched. Eg, I have seen my CWIS take down maybe two rockets ever? Whereas the soviets will almost always strike down at least one incoming missiles with their CWIS (This also goes for when you play as them) Will changem y review to thumbs up eventually, I'm just very tilted at watching 48 harpoons die to spoofing jamming missile point defense chaff and cwis. You know. The things they were designed to, and proven.... to defeat. --------------------------------------------- TLDR; Another milsim, another ***Russian Bias*** balance game. At least when I play warno I expect BS balancing lol cause it's supposed to be an RTS and not milsim. It is a very fun game, and a lot of the annoying stuff I dislike can be excused by paper stats. THUMBS UP NOW: My opinion hasn't changed. The game is so fun, but man the paper-spec soviet BS suuuuuuuuuucks. Showdown off guam is one of the best/worst missions in any game I've ever played. It's so good/bad it's the reason this review goes up and down lol --------------------------------------------- NOTE MUCH OF THIS IS JUST COMPLAINING about stuff /I/ dislike, rather than stuff that is /objectively/ so. Since in reality we never truly know "what if"s between Soviets and USN going hot. Mainly complaining about balance below in edits: Edit: Yep it's not a fluke. 50 harpoons, 49 were intercepted. Soviet Bias is so annoying at times Review will remain critical until Showdown off Guam doesn't have the lone 3 ship Kirov SAG shoot down 98% of incoming missiles. Not even the soviets themselves would've claimed a 98% intercept rate. Who would win? 50 Harpoon missiles or a barely functional fire control radar. Soviet Radar operators would be screaming, unable to even pick out targets. Instead in a 24 swarm of harpoons, they perfectly pick each one out and intercept it. I do love this game a lot, but this has officially turned me off of it. The ♥♥♥♥ is the point if you can't accurately larp a "I don't like this gridsquare, sailor. Delete it". I get it's a game and you have to balance at least SOME things, but this is just.... Obscene. You're telling me the USN's only valid option in the 1980s was to ahead-flank their battleships into 127mm range because the harpoons have a, near as makes no difference, 100% failure/intercept rate, apparently. Obviously I exaggerate how bad the soviet tech was, but legitimately this is insane lol this isn't even gamification it's just infuriating. Edit2: I'm going to leave my complaint. Why? Because I know it's somewhat unreasonable, my complaining. But also, it's entirely valid. I do like the game. Despite its "brochure spec" math. It's in early access too, so... I guess some slack there. Though if this game launches and a 3 ship Kirov sag shoots down 50 Harpoons again... LOL //And I do realize that so much of this is RNG, theoretically, in reality, it COULD maybe have happened.

非常好玩，打折值得入手 你甚至可以体验到大猫上高甩不死鸟点名苏空 就是优化很烂，单位多一点就卡 而且小毛病有点多，什么叫云的图层会在燃烧烟雾图层上面？ 但总的来说还不错，期待持续更新

该版本存在多处令人失望的问题。开发团队随意改动原有游戏机制，很多改动没有充分考量老玩家的游戏体验，直接破坏了大量现有模组的运行环境，严重冲击模组社区生态。同时游戏存在阵营区别对待的现象，部分国家阵营的内容设计、平衡性存在明显差距。制作组缺少统一的总负责人，开发方向散漫，迭代规划混乱，很多问题长期得不到修复。希望官方能够重视玩家反馈，尊重模组社区，优化阵营平衡性，梳理开发管理，回归游戏本身的乐趣。 This update brings many disappointing issues. The dev team arbitrarily revises original game mechanics. Many changes ignore veteran players’ experience, breaking a large number of existing mods and severely damaging the mod‑ding community ecosystem. There is also obvious unfair treatment between different country factions, with notable gaps in content design and balance. The studio lacks a unified lead director. Development is disorganized, and many bugs remain unresolved for a long time. We hope the official will take player feedback seriously, respect the mod community, improve faction balance, reorganize development workflow, and restore the core fun of the game.

The USN does not have enough missiles to defeat the 500 AGM-65 Mavericks of Allah, the Straights of Hormuz shall remain closed inshallah.

Good game - however the lack of responsiveness by the units makes it difficult. its not just occasional but appears to be systemic in nature. Units carry on old orders no matter what you tell them to do. bloody annoying

Do you like boats that shoots missiles? This game is for you! A full sandbox experience on Cold War naval warfare where you can play pre-made scenarios and missions, or making your own using mission editor in the main menu. With fully supported modding scene, every mods in Steam workshop is where things shine. New community-made custom models and scenarios for anyone to try! Also, best game developer I've seen in quite a while with multiple good updates and patches that able to increase player experience. I bought this game almost two years ago with all it's barebone mechanics. Now it feels like a different game, in a good sense. Best purchase in Steam I've ever did.

I have watched the development of this game for a very long time, and I am very pleased to see it come to fruition. It seems every version of the game had me saying "I am content with this, money has been well spent." only for the developers to go above and beyond with the next update. The devs themselves are wonderful, keeping good engagement with the community and delivering an awesome product. I just finished the dynamic campaign, and it was incredibly well made. Not to mention the devs included a sandbox mode with all game units, and a debug menu to use whatever ships/aircraft you want. Mod support is also excellent. There are those who lament the current state of the games industry, and while their complaints are valid, I believe that if they played sea power they would have more optimism for the future of the industry. If we continue to have developers such as these, the future of video games, whether cold war simulation or fantasy RPG, is very bright.
