Well it runs with no issue, although the OS did recommend about running it in compatibility mode. Even though the game runs smoothly, the graphics are a bit off that you see black lines and some black or dark shapes appearing but it doesn't seem to affect the game performance. Framerates according to MSI Afterburner shows the game running between 20-29 at mid-settings in 720p resolution, though it seems to run like 35-45ish. The system runs the game better than my last AMD FX-7500 powered device and the i3-3120M system before that. 

Hi Jack, great to hear from you. I am sorry I do not know if SSE will run on Windows 11. I think it will but I cannot guarantee this. Best of luck, I think I would give it a try anyway.

Hi guys, long while no see. Hi Traddles what's up? I have an up to date system with the following specs:

PC: Lenovo Ideapad 3 15IAU7 laptop
CPU: 12th Gen (Alder Lake) Intel Core i3-1215U (6 cores (2P +4E) 8 threads) Processor
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 12th gen (Xe architecture (64EUs (512 ALUs)) 1GB video memory
RAM: 12GB (8GB soldered + 4GB DDR4 So-DIMM Dual channel RAM)
HDD: 256GB SSD
OS: Windows 11 Home

And i'm studying to put back SSE on it but would it be supported on W11 or i would have to run it in compatibility mode (down to Windows 8 )? If this topic was bought up already, please provide the link, thanks.

I notice there was a mention of no multiplayer - is that definitely the case? If so, that's a real shame. I couldn't see myself making an effort to upgrade my old PC for the sake of something that has minimal interactivity between players.

Where the subscription model is concerned, I can't see the average consumer being interested in paying the bones of 50 Euro every 6 months. In addition, I think it knocks out potential younger enthusiasts such as myself who ended up in a career at sea because of the franchise. I struggle to see who or what Nautis Home really appeals to? Perhaps that's a pessimistic view.

I can see it being targeted really at professional use cases, but a watered-down version is made for consumers as it’s not that much more work to water it down…

Hi Jack,
They say multiplayer is to follow at some time in the next 12 months.

Hi Angus. I am also retired. I totally agree with you. Same here, 2006, 2008 and SSE versions.

Hi Thanasis,
After many years of enjoying The 2006, 2008 and SSE versions I too find the concept of Nautis Home to be not what I would enjoy. As a retired (long ago) seafarer I don't want to start basic training all over again. Not really my idea of enjoyment. I am now 88 years old and just want to take things easy. My computer is not up to the suggested power requirements anyway, and to buy a new one is out of the question.

Regards to all,
Angus

Hello. As an old ship simmer, like all ship simmers, I was happy when I received Vstep's message about the NAUTIS Home version, but disappointed when I saw the pricing as a monthly or 6-month subscription. Unfortunately for me the price is expensive. I could maybe pay for a month or 6-month subscription of the early access but not for longer. I guess I should realize that I won't enjoy NAUTIS Home.

It’s nice to see us “old” members agreeing on something for once…
