Title: why???????
Post by: trains on April 20, 2008, 02:54:15
why does almost every body think having the Olympiac and Britannic is a bad idea? it would be awsome. the three prides of the White Star Line in one game.

I think one of the family is enough for the game.
We need more different kids of vessels in the future.

Yes agree , what's  the point to haw similar ships in th game, then we cud haw all Ocean Stars sister ships or Vermasse lookalike in the game
Different ships with different behave and different Howe they operate and be handled more chalange that. but had liked to have this back in the game.

It would be nice to have the sisters in SS08 alright but, they are basicly the same, certain aspects that is. So i think SS08 should be working on different vessels rather than similar ones, i think more general motor cruisers etc. should be included, that is my opinion.

Kind Regards

It's not so much that people don't want the 3 ships (or any other group for that matter) it's just that I for one would rather VSTEP put their resources towards bringing variety first and then working towards adding full lines of ships.  The problem is with a new Ship Sim coming out every year or so that will probably never happen since they (have not yet anyway) don't carry all the ships from one sim to the next.  I for one would absolutely LOVE to see Ship Sim have 100+ ports as well as at least one of every class of the ships out there.  But they would have to concentrate on one thing for that to happen and it will take ALOT of money and time to do it.  Who knows,, maybe one day  ;D

but think about. ships from the same time(almost) in the games Titanic mission, you se a 1912 ship with modern ships. it doesn't add realism. maybe a historic add on with those ships would be a good idea. would be good for historic missions ;)

Definitely agree with ya,, maybe they'll add more of the older time ships later on in add-ons or something.  Just saying there is soo much that needs to be added that they have to prioritize what is more important and what will sell better to bring more money in to be able to add more stuff,, rinse and repeat,, a vicious cycle but hopefully they'll get to it  :D

It would be a waste of effort to make 3 allmost identical ships.

One ocean liner is enough for me.

But a steam tanker would be nice.

I agree, there is no sense in having three ships that only differ in unnoticable ways.

Why not make Vstep the game moddable? Like MSFS?

How about those ships as static objects that can still be "used" in missions but are un playable.

I would LOVE the Britannic to be put onto Ship sim, not as a hospital ship but as an Ocean liner. There is actually some point in having her because she has many differences, unlike the Titanic and Olymipic. You need a trained eye to tell the differences between them two.

What i mean is you have to be able to know the differences, for you to spot them.

Yeah and so what? People will see it any way. What's the reason for having another "Titanic lookalike ship" in the game? Make something different historical instead...or just forget it.
I know that you Titanic fans want all in this game...because it's not hard to read that either. This sim isn't a museum. It's a Ship Simulator... :-*
