(If I may like in, Port Royal, East India Company, POC or now as TransOcean, parts of Empire Total War, etc.)

Or could their be and add on sim/ game/s, down the track?:įor the likes of exploration, like James Cook, Matthew Flinders, Bligh, and other counterparts, from other Nations, of that period or earlier, or later.Īnd others from all nations, to whom without them, who knows, what our New Worlds, would be like today. Or like modern or old world types, walking around cities, etc. Or late at night, in the darkness, the crew is awoken, to stumble, out of their cots, due to their ship is under attack, to the cries of "All hands to Stations" thus trying as quick as possible, to ready, their guns. (picture it, Captain peacefully on the Loo, when he hears Gun fire, that has a Cannonball, wizzing pass him, from a broadside to his ship, in shock he stumbles off, while trying to raise his trousers, etc, to rush to the upperdecks, his station, to scout the scene and receive a report, of what the devil is going on.) Crews and Captains, which are both different. It may be that, you will be able to light along the length, breath, go aloft (heights) and go aft (below) to look upon the decks, of you vessel, be it in or during battle, or when just cruising from one point to another.Īccess all areas, in good detail, even "The Head" the toilet. Maybe, the Devls, might have it whether in Battle, Blockading a Port (though this can to be boring to some, as it was in the Real World at the time.) or just Sailing the High Seas, (whether it be chasing a prize, or escaping one chasing you.) for the purpose, of locating the enemy, etc. When this Sim/ game, gets going completely, hopefully, as noticed from other threads. If I may toss my hat into the ring, if I may.
#NAVAL GAMES WITH CREW FULL#
Imagine a slider somewhere on the lines above, could also be in fractions say 1/4 1/2 3/4 full etc, whats important to me is that the choice is available.

let the players worry about the level of detail they choose ) (I would like this also for other GFX options such as Sail quality/animation, Cannon recoil & Crew reacting, gunports, damaged ship animation etc etc.
#NAVAL GAMES WITH CREW PC#
I would like to see the option below or similar in your setup options, so that you can stylise suitable for your own PC capability. Those with cutting edge high end systems can have everything, whilst those with lesser capability find settings that allow a smooth game with fewer options turned on. Perhaps the quantity of crew carrying out various activities, will be an option setting for each captain to control locally on their own PC/System. So i know thats an alpha, and that crew visuals are not a key feature and not very important actualy.īut whats the plan, how should it be in the final release? It has magic sails but on deck there are a lot of sailros, sea-soldiers and officers and also guys on the cannons who really work on them. Sadly Empires/Napoleon Total War does the best job in this. But also in Youtube Videos from Naval Action there is nobody on the ship (except some guys with idle animation) and sails and cannons work magicly.
#NAVAL GAMES WITH CREW MOVIE#
When i look on the Movie Master & Commander or read the books from O'Brien, i always see (or imagine) decks full of people working. And i mostly hate this magic sails which work without any person. Mostly there are 1-2 standing on Cannons, do nothing or some other just play idle animations. But there is no game where i can see those people. Look, a Ship in this time has 100-300 Men to work. I'm a huge Fan of this Century and i really like to see another Game on the horizon.īut there is one point that really dissapoint me on all ships. I'm a huge fan from sail games from Sid Meiers Pirates, over Pirates of the carribian to the sail part of Empires: Total War and even Assassins Creed Black Flag.
