I'm positive I spotted Frank in that screenshot!  :doh:   With all due respect, it sort of looks the same!

And another thing I noticed about Ocean Star,
Where are the lifeboats!! Does this mean since they are all gone we can operate ALL the lifeboats on OS! wow!
(http://i47.tinypic.com/aa009.jpg)

 
And looks like We can definately launch lifeboats, as seen from the Esperanze, her RIB is missing and is in the water.

Guess what ships bridge this is

Its the one and only Rainbow Warrior III

(http://i46.tinypic.com/tasdcl.jpg)

I counted the windows and matched up things on the bow so it was obvious

I see they yet moved the release date. The release date is now: August 27, 2010. And that person on the bow of R.W.III, it must be your character from walkthrough mode. I see he wasn't on the bow of Rainbow Warrior III when in the bridge, meaning we have person models for people to see, and to make ships seem populated. And seeing lifeboats can now be launched, I hope to see PoR's lifeboats launched, and maybe Titanic's if she can be in Shipyard for free (Hopefully).

Post by: Captain. Mitch on June 16, 2010, 23:19:57
Yes, also you can see the sailing equipment and sails trough the windows.  ;D
Nice bridge too! Looks intersting!

That with launching lifeboats LOOKS GREAT!
I remember someone has suggest that, only few members support that idea, i was for that too, THAT'S VERY COOL, you can anchore outside the port and launch the lifeboat to go on shore, it looks that suggestion becomes and realism! I hope!!  :thumbs:

These new pictures, just make me more interested in, i can't wait the moment to start sail all those great places, harbours with that exotic an intersting vessels!!
Don't you think like that?  ;D

The "Ocean Star" is a little bit changed, or just i'm seeing it like that???
The yellow/orange/pink stripes are now blue/purple/white???

It looks somehow different, I CAN'T WAIT THE PICTURES FROM THE "OCEAN STAR" BRIDGE!!!!

The "Marabella Delight" with the new exotic red color, looks very nice...

Kind regards.

Quite impressing pictures!

But again, I'm afraid that you need a supercomputer to run the game smooth with many details.

And then I'm interested in a few other things:
Because of these doubts I will have to wait for a demo version.

We have them in SS08. They are called passengers, and can be placed in Mission Editor. They do not represent the location of the camera in walkthrough.

Look at the picture of the Bridge of RWIII. You see he ain't on the bow. But a pic viewing him in orbit view shows him. Noticed that?

Hi guys,

E3 is going pretty well, lots of interest and great feedback for our game. FYI, I'm posting regular updates on our Twitter page, so if you want to stay up-to-date to what we're up to at E3, that's the best way to do so.

P.S. I'm not the passenger/crewmember in the picture, although I could be, handsome bloke!  ;D
P.P.S. The release date is double, so there is an August 24 release for EU, August 27 for US.

E3 day 3 coming up...

Take care,
Frank

Thanks for letting us know the European Release and American Release Frank. I see both release dates are three days apart. And that is a short time period. ;D And I can't wait for a new trailer of SSE in motion at E3. I think it will be the bestest Game Trailer yet to come. :)

Thanks for letting us know the launching date and the update of SSE, Frank but i find these delays is going a little far if you know what a mean.  :) But i could wait, i hope.

maybe the lifeboats can only be used in the campain, and not multiplayer, it would be cool if we could though.
but, having fuel would add realism to it, but would prove a burden on multiplayer. maybe, we could have moving parts on other ships like a stern ramp and bow doors for the PoR? :2thumbs:
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes at E3 2010 news update.
Post by: Nathan|C on June 17, 2010, 17:56:08
POR doesn't have any bow doors :P

A moving stern ramp would also mean the interior of the ship would have to be modelled, unless you want to lower the ramp and see a tunnel of blackness :doh:
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes at E3 2010 news update.
Post by: Pride of Dover on June 17, 2010, 18:24:35
forgot about the no bow doors :doh: well, thats what u see on the upper car deck anyways, plus if u look in the misson editor, the interior is partly modeled.

I wonder if you can do continuous navigating like going from england to New york?
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes at E3 2010 news update.
Post by: MVEsperanza on June 17, 2010, 19:15:37
I dont think so that would mean a huge game! like in FS where you can just keep going and it loads as it goes along i doubt it but it would be nice

I can see it now the first mission takes 3 weeks at 24/7 to complete.
People would get bored if that were to be the case really quick.

lol well i think the trip 24/7 would take 5 days if on the QM2/ Ocean Star

Most ships have enough fuel for weaks. So if you would like to play multiplayer for weaks non-stop, then it will be a burden yes.  ;D

I allso don't think you have fuel meters in real life on the bridge.
On small ships you have them, but not on big cargoships.

Some cargoships even still have to be measured manually with a plummet (or plump bob) in the bunkertank.

So I wonder if fuel meters will be available on every ship.
