Yes, all of the ships from the SS2006 add on will be in this new add-on, so you can expect the Ocean Star to be making an appearence.

HI EVERYONE

Does anyone know if there is going to be a cruise ship on ss08 add-on: New Horizons like there is on ss06 add-on?

The Ocean Star will be included with the addon.

You can even already download it, if you have registered your licence of the 2006 addon on your profile on this forum.

But this is my first ship simulator so do i have to buy it then?

NathanC · « **Reply #28 on:** February 16, 2008, 21:55:40 »

1. Buy SS2008
2. Buy SS2006 Add-On
3. Go to your profile and enter the liscence key for the SS2006 Add-on
4. After that, it will ask you if you want a free SS2008 liscence key. Click yes.
5. Enter that key. You will now have SS2006 add-on ships in 2008.

Shipaddict · « **Reply #31 on:** February 16, 2008, 22:33:00 »

IF you have SS06, register the key and the 08 one in your profile. Orange box appeares for free download.

Don't have SS06? Have to wait and pay for it when it comes for SS08.

white runner · « **Reply #32 on:** February 16, 2008, 22:52:25 »

I will have to pay, damn

tinie · « **Reply #33 on:** February 17, 2008, 00:53:48 »

NathanC · « **Reply #34 on:** February 17, 2008, 09:09:15 »

Yes, plus an extra enviroment i think.

Denis · « **Reply #35 on:** February 17, 2008, 09:13:20 »

If you buy SS2006 addon, you'll only get the ships of this addon for SS2008. If you wait for the New Horizon addon (which I recommend), you'll get the same ships, plus two new ships (a modern powerful tug with aquamaster (azimuth) propellers, and a barge pushboat), and plus a new environnment (Cornwall).

Hi Denis,

Might I add, that it of course doesn't mean that the people who allready have the SS06 Addon and therefor part of the coming addon, will miss out on the new content. As said in the official announcement about the free upgrade, those completely new ships and the new environment will also be available to them, most likely as single addon downloads. (not as part of the free upgrade, these will have to be purchased)

Regards,
Fred

Denis · « **Reply #37 on:** February 17, 2008, 09:55:44 »

you mean there will be two version of the new horizon add on ?

1. the full addon package
2. a partial addon package, less expensive, just to add the 2 new ships and the new zone, for those who already have the 2006 addon ?

Mad_Fred · « **Reply #38 on:** February 17, 2008, 10:03:55 »

Well I am not aware of what it will be precisely, but it says so in the official announcement that the SS06 Addon owners can still upgrade the 6 ships fpr free, and that the new ships and environment will be offered as single addons that they can purchase, in April.

http://www.shipsim.com/ShipSimForum/index.php/topic,3052.0.html

I'm just saying this so that the SS06 addon owners don't think they have to pay again for those 6 ships in the new horizons addon. The 6 they allready have and were promised to get upgraded for free.

Regards,
Fred

wy are the cormuel not in th new add-on

Jazz · « **Reply #40 on:** February 18, 2008, 01:24:41 »

So if I purchase 2008 add-on I don't need to purchase 2006 add-on to be able to play on the add-on servers?

In short, 2006 add-on and 2008 add-on contains the same ships (plus two for 2008)?

Mad_Fred · « **Reply #41 on:** February 18, 2008, 02:23:59 »

The SS2006 Addon had 6 ships.

The SS2008 Addon will have 8 ships, plus an extra enviroment.

The SS2006 Owners can get a free update for these 6 ships, plus they can buy the 2 new ships and enviroment.
They allready had a change to download the 6 ships. The missions will follow soon, for free, and the new addons which they can purchase are planned for April as single downloads.

The People that don't own the SS2006 Addon, can just buy the SS2008 addon. This is planned (off the top of my head) for the 22nd of March. They just buy the whole pack in one box or download.

That's about it in a nuttshell, as far as the announcements have explained the proceedings. I hope this answers your question.

Regards,
Fred

I am not sure about the name, but I saw a ship like that in the Rotterdam Harbour close to the Erasmusbrug as a static ship.

Bottman · « **Reply #43 on:** February 18, 2008, 07:19:20 »

This one is everywhere as static object, but there are no plans to make her a player ship, unfortunately...

NathanC · « **Reply #44 on:** February 18, 2008, 14:00:12 »

That's a shame

Bottman · « **Reply #45 on:** February 18, 2008, 16:16:53 »

Indeed! I really love ferries of that size..

white runner · « **Reply #46 on:** February 18, 2008, 19:14:23 »

I want all the ships from 06 for free for 08 in the addon

NathanC · « **Reply #47 on:** February 18, 2008, 19:41:46 »

That's impossible.......you need the SS2006 add on, which costs money.....

There is actaully a guy on ebay selling SS2006 and SS2006 Add-on for Â£10 with free P&P, brand new still sealed.

white runner · « **Reply #48 on:** February 19, 2008, 02:14:04 »

Why does everyone always want everything for free..?

Don't you want the developers to stay in business and keep making upgrades and new games?

Seriously though... a few ships from SS06 are in SS08 too, and ALL the SS06 addon ships will be in the SS08 addon.

If you want the other SS06 ships, you will just have to buy SS06 and play that. Those "missing" ships will not be added to SS08.

and you make "stuck with SS08" sound as if you got a bad deal by buying the sim. You knew what you were buying, didn't you? No one ever announced a load of free goodies. $:-\$

Fred
