Background This kind of came out of the blue for me - saw a post on SubSim.com about it releasing this month, and then lo and behold it appears on Steam last week. Given my interests (naval history!) this was a natural purchase. I've played a LOT of ' back in the day, as well as more recently (very slightly more recently) '. One thing both of those games have in common is that they hate running on modern systems.
Neither is easy to get working on Windows 7 - although that at least makes INSTALLING it possible.but the graphics are abominable 16-bit color (which means very bad color banding on modern video cards), and the game does nothing with widescreen monitors - so you have to either have huge black bars on either side of the very-square image, or stretch the heck out of it. Well, along comes the spiritual successor to Fleet Command - Paradox's 'Naval War: Arctic Circle'. And, needless to say, as a modern title, it looks GOOD: (Our man, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier!).complete with direct integration with Steam, complete with achievements and everything: (Working my way through the campaign.) It comes complete with some of the classics of the old Cold War-era gaming. (here, the old favorite 'Kirov'-class, with a 'Slava'-class in the background. LOOK AT ALL THOSE MISSILE TUBES!!) However, as the game is set in the year 2030, it also features the new coolness of hardware just starting to come out. For example, the F-35 Lightning II is a MAJOR player in the game. (a flight of our latest hardware) So.'
2030', you say, 'what's up with that? So far in the future, it's just guessing SciFi-work.' Well.no, not really. I mean, it's only 18 years away at this point. Download warm bodies sub indo. And given procurement schedules for naval hardware (most systems are procured at LEAST a decade before they enter service.so we'll have a pretty good idea today what could even be available then), as well as service life of ships (while the frigate, it IS rather more the exception that the rule - still, the USS Enterprise just went on its last mission.and ).well, the long and short of it is that we will actually know pretty well what naval hardware is being used in war by 2030. And the changes you'd expect are there: • F-16?
Primary light air combat unit is the F-35• F-15? Land-based air superiority (and light strikes) are provided by Eurofighter Typhoons, or the *excellent* F-22 Raptor• F/A-18 C? Nope - although the F/A-18 'Superhornet' E and G are deployed on various carriers.• The UK has their new ' class in service.• Carriers have LOTS of drone aircraft.
Actually, so do the land bases. Just.there are a bunch of drones in service.etc As far as the background - it's mostly touched on outside of the game, but basic premise is that global warming (not making a political position, here, this is the game story) has continued and resulted in a permanent 'Northwest passage' forming for a major sea trade route to exist around the north of Canada. Resulting economic upshifts resulting from this climate change and oil running lower has caused some schisms in the existing political alliances. NATO is still a factor, but the US primarily has pulled out of the Atlantic in support of Pacific operations. Emboldened by a weakend NATO, and feeling internal pressure on their internal economic needs, the Russians invade the European countries making up the 'Northern Alliance' (a sub-set of NATA consisting of the UK, Germany, and Scandinavian countries).
So that's really how the two sides shape up - Russian forces on one side, and UK/Norway/Denmark/German/etc forces on the other. The US *does* show up later in the campaign, of course, once the war really gets going.
Appearance Well, it's fairly straightforward as things go. The game is played entirely from the screen seen, below. You notice the 3d window in the bottom pane, which shows a realtime view of what you've got selected.ship/aircraft/missile/airbase/etc. And the upper window showing the map.
This is PROBABLY the best way to play the game, as EVERYTHING you can do in the game must be done via the map or the panel in the lower right (or popup panels).there is no facility to interact meaningfully in the 3d view aside from just panning around and zooming in/out. Similarly, the map in the lower left is just information-only for unit positions (useful when you are very zoomed in on the upper map).
