Title: Furie or Elbe?
Post by: Gloat on October 18, 2008, 19:59:33: My parents promised me a new ship from the shipyard. I already have the agile solution and the ocean star, I want the other two. But I can have only ONE. I personally like the elbe but I want your thoughts too! ;D

I voted Furie because it is from the same era as Titanic (the Edwardian Period), made 4 years after. Because of this, the Furie is the second oldest ship in the game! (Titanic being the oldest)

Post by: Gloat on October 18, 2008, 20:25:43: to be honest, I dont really care about age. I care about the detail and interiors

but I take your opinion!

And plus, Iv noticed you pay in dollars $. Is it possible to pay in pounds Â£?

one more question. When you pay, do you get to download instantly? or is that on some payment methods? if so, which ones?

Post by: Ballast on October 18, 2008, 21:55:56: @ MS, you get it instantly.

I voted for the Furie by the way, it's more nimble than the Elbe. The sound of the Furie is very nice, especialy the steam horn!

Post by: firestar12 on October 18, 2008, 22:35:00: I would say definatly the Elbe. Than the Furie. But if you can only get one, Get Elbe.

Post by: Agent|Austin on October 19, 2008, 03:48:44: If you want VERY detailed interior and large tug get elbe. If you want a smaller tug with a small interior but GREATER detail on the outside get furie. You could also watch videos of them and see what one you like the best.

Elbe - http://www.vimeo.com/1690316
Furie - http://www.vimeo.com/1269717

Elbe is quit a big larger and won't fit in shallow waters. If you like tugging other people in multiplayer I would get furie, but if you like playing missions in open waters towing massive ships get elbe.

You can decide. :)

To be honest, i much prefer the Furie. Here is a pic i took in Maasluis a few weeks ago:
