I wouldn't think its would be the actual cover

First of all, the font, it isnt the same as how it should be..

Also I wouldn't think VSTEP would have just a battleship on the front cover as it creates the intention that the game is about war and war vessels. If I had never heard of the game and saw that in the shop, my first thought would be its a war game..

Also it hasnt got any other things added to it like the VSTEP logo etc


i cant tell you that  :evil:

And yes you can

It may be the same the size of it may be comprimated but as you say it's probealby higher requierments for SSE.

I don't think it is the real cover, but well.. maybe it is...

I've been playing it for 40 years now..  And it's still a great sim!  :P



Seriously..  Don't get your hopes up about those specs, anyone. It's obvious that the info is merely a placeholder, and not correct.  :)



Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: Kevinmcg_ships on January 20, 2010, 22:55:43
The only way to be absolutely sure about things like SSE cover artwork, minimum spec etc is on the official Ship Sim website or an official announcement by one of the Vstep developers on this forum.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet!  ;)
Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: MMMMMM on January 21, 2010, 04:49:35
Well Paradox is the Publisher of SSE so i believe thats the real cover and the release date must be a type-o

Post by: matt5674 on January 21, 2010, 23:45:01
That's SSE's cover? I kinda liked the old version of text and where the picture is from the game with their own special effects. This SSE, it is kinda like a picture of a Coast Guard vessel with SSe in new font unsimilar to the font on the SSE's new trailer near the end. I think PI made what Could be the cover.
Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: J3nsen on January 22, 2010, 00:44:54
Dont know why, but i like that cover.... Extreme picture and more like a war font :)

The part about the cover? If so accualy Yes The Coast Guard Ship Was to be featured on the cover of SSE, everyone who read the youtube comments on franks interview Video on youtube knows Pjtor Told us When i asked if The coast guard ship would be in SSE and he said yes and that it would be on the cover to!

why does it have a picture of a Us coast guard cutter on it when there isnt one on the game? I think that the game should include pack ice on the antarctic level and an ice breaker so that you can break it for other ships to follow you in?

How do you know there won't be one in SSE have you watched the trailors? That doesn't mean its in the game, but would be odd to have a ship in the trailor thats not in the game :P
Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: matt5674 on January 23, 2010, 15:24:08
US Coast Gaurd Cutter WILL be in SSE if it is in SS Pro. VSTEP wanted every Ship Simmer to get the full effects of sailing with tons of ships and ports.
Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: Capt. Matt on January 23, 2010, 15:56:42
You can't just assume things if you don't have facts to back it up. The trailor is a good hint...but again until Frank or someone else says it in an interview we cant be certain.

Cadet,

it is great that you are a 21st Century Sherlock Holmes. But when one finds such nuggets of information, it is good practice to state the source in order that people can verify the source...

Some people are more likely than others to have their facts checked...
Title: Re: SSE cover
Post by: HmhsBritannic on January 27, 2010, 20:58:35
I wouldn't think its would be the actual cover

First of all, the font, it isnt the same as how it should be..

Also I wouldn't think VSTEP would have just a battleship on the front cover as it creates the intention that the game is about war and war vessels. If I had never heard of the game and saw that in the shop, my first thought would be its a war game..

Also it hasnt got any other things added to it like the VSTEP logo etc


And yes you can

Its The Coast Guard......Not A Warship.

"Hope" will be "Nadezhda" in Russian.

Thought it was Russian. Russian to English with Esperanza is the same Esperanza. Spanish to English is Hope. I really need to remember translations.

If during the translation from, say, Russian to English you input Russian word in English letters - of course you'll get the same word, that's obvious.  :doh:

But if instead of "Nadezhda" you'll type "Надежда" - then you'll get "Hope".

Most people have a problem spelling in their native language, let alone another...

I have a pretty reasonable grasp of several languages, but Russian, Chinese and Arabic are well and truly beyond me. I did try learning Chinese once, but found it easier to buy a new TV than translate the instructions  ;)

I have two mates, Identical Russian twins. They are both the best chess players in the school, and one is an expert in nuclear physics, chemical and biological warfare. The other wants to be a lawyer.

The other day one openly declared to the history teacher that Russia won the Cold War, then gave several reasons as to why they did.

And one loves calling up such things on the internet as a Google Maps plugin that shows nuclear fallout, destruction and heat produced by various different types of nuclear weapons falling on a postcode or city of your choice. Or going on Youtube and looking at footage of Tsar Bomb detonations.

the other was denied access to Devonport Naval Base when he applied to go there for work experience because of the security risk.

Not doing much to dispel the Russian stereotypes, are they?

I think you might find that things have changed there, mcg.

Just as my generation were told the propoganda of the 'damned evil commies' they were told the same thing about 'damned capitalist fascists' (which, btw is a contradiction of terms. A bit like boiling ice).

I suspect with your age that you don't know much about the real cold war? (no offence to you, just based on my guess of your age). When 2 people could be told they must hate each other just because of their nationality...

As for being an expert in nuclear physics... in school...  ::)

As I have travelled east a fair bit before the end of communism, I know of what I speak... BTW our american cousins might tell you that they beat the Russians in the cold war... Perhaps go to Gdansk and ask them their opinion of what triggered the fall of the USSR.
