3. OCEANIC TUG
Where did you purchase your copy of Ship Simulator (Name of Business - City, State/Province - Country):
online webshop in Norway box version  through http://www.flightsim.no/shop/
On a scale from 1-5, how would you rate Ship Simulator currently:5
Which is more appealing to you in Ship Simulator, the technical simulator aspects (such as docking, tugging, crane operations, etc.) or the fast, speedy arcade style of playing (such as races, ramping, and such):
docking and tugging along with ferry operations sailing bye timetabel

Any additional comments or suggestions welcome here:
I think the game is coming along well, there are a few things I'd like to see
enhanced bridge equipment
I'd most like to see additional bridge equipment, perhaps era specific, it would also be great if you had the option to switch off the gps style cursor/nav fix and added a bearing readout to the binocs so that you could navigate by triangulation, dead reckoning etc. 
night lighting on chart/bridge
night lighting on the bridge and a night pallette for the chart should be added as it's a bit jarring to switch from an outside view to a brightly lit bridge or chart.
timetabled missions
Also I'd like to see timetabled missions for ferries, not turning the game into a race game but
 using a sensible real world time window eg time +/- 5 mins etc.
more detailed docking
It would also be great if docking ops could be further enhanced i.e. the ship must be parallel to the quay +/-5 degrees at a certain distance etc, also it would be great if the winches on the ships could be used to pull/slacken lines etc.
brighter buoys and lighthouses
It would be great if these could be seen at a greater distance and flashed as in the real world. I would see in the game, anchor handling and more intelligent sailling of indinintually moved vessels (avoiding collisions with the big ships like Titanic and container ship as the steering procedure of these ships is slow).
I also prefer to sail free between ports (maybe it's necessery a multiple speed running of the game - x2,x3,x4... - saving time due to long distances between ports).
more detailed docking
 :)

Please don't abandon this game VSTEP  continue to develop this game PLEASE!!!

I would advise Vstep to listen to the gaming community, I've noticed that a lot of ss2008 players are also into flight simulators or other sims. There seems to be a big desire to be able to incorperate ships into the sim yourself. In my opinion this is what makes flight sims like FSX a succes. It is obvious at the moment Vstep is not sure yet were it wants to go with the game in the future. What I mean is; there is a big difference between an arcade game and a simulation game. Right now ss 2008 hovers between the two. If Vstep wants to be a true sim there is still a lot of work ahead, the base of the game however is solid enough to become a true FSX of the seas!   ;D  I hope I don't sound negative, that is not my intention nor opinion  ;)

Hello Everyone;

   The forum Mods and the Devs @ VStep want to know about you! Please answer the following, as it would be a great help to developing a better Ship Simulator for everyone in the future.

   With this survey below, we are trying to find where everyone is located, so that in the future, VStep will know how popular Ship Simulator is and where - but also it will tell the devs possibly what next ports need to be added to the game, what are the popular features, and what other games everyone is playing - therefore keeping VStep developers ahead of the crowd and knowing how to best always please loyal Ship Simulator gamers and fans alike. Always wanted that port in town to be on Ship Simulator? Well, who knows, with enough information from you and fellow gamers it may just happen!

   The more VStep knows about it's gamers and fans, the more can be done to make Ship Simulator the ultimate ship simulation platform!


Thanks for your help everyone!

On a scale from 1-5, how would you rate Ship Simulator currently: 1. SS 2006 was a lot better! There are far too many bugs in the new SS 2008 and the language in the dutch version is very bad dutch. "Gepauzeert" in stead of "gepauseerd", "in afwachting voor" in stead of  "in afwachting van"; too many mistakes to mention. But the worst is that it's often a riddle what you have to do in the game. :'(

I like the technical stuff: docking, craning and so on.

Plenty of good ideas on this forum but my priority would be realism. It needs improved physics, mass, hydrodynamics, AI traffic, wind, tides, etc. Greater interactivity on the bridge, more controls. It needs to become more of a simulation I think... but well done so far VSTEP!

On a scale from 1-5, how would you rate Ship Simulator currently: Too early for me to tell, I don't know how to use it yet!

Which is more appealing to you in Ship Simulator, the technical simulator aspects (such as docking, tugging, crane operations, etc.) or the fast, speedy arcade style of playing (such as races, ramping, and such):
Harbor work with ships and tugs and tugs working on vessels just offshore in 3 meter swell conditions. I also need to feel the wind at 30 to 60 knots.

Any additional comments or suggestions welcome here:I would like to see more of the bigger ships combined with tug operations and smaller service craft. Now that ships can sink, it seems that they do very regularly. I've just been doing Hamburg, the new terminal in ShipSim 2008 and the sea going tanker turns over as I approach it at 8 knots. More intelligence from the AI ships, (not colliding, giving way to less manouverable ships), I know that it adds to the game play but this is a ship simulator, to see it comparable to Flight Simulator would be good.

- I ordered last week SS 2008, and checking each day my post with impatience. But I was wondering if a parameter such as fuel consumption has been included.
  Then it would be a challenge not only to be prudent and to be the fastest but also the less energy consumer... just an idea...
