I've been doing naval milsims since Harpoon in the 1990s. Sea Power strikes me as kind of easy, but I think the game will improve as its AI and features come online. The developer is putting a lot of effort into it. Wait till it's gets challenging, lol! But milsims have a high learning curve, and realistic naval milsims have extremely high learning curves. It takes practice and some study. There are bunch of good tutorials for this game's predecessor, Command: Modern Operations, which can help you understand naval warfare. And Stealth17 has some good tutorials but they're very basic. The positive side is if you can win, it's an accomplishment. Naval warfare makes you think. It's like chess x10. BTW, Ruskie ships had very good missile and torpedo defense in the Cold War. If you're going to take them down, you have to swarm them with Harpoons. Or at least two torpedos per salvo.
You need to cut all radar and sonar by default on the ships, because while you can't compete with subs stealth wise you just need to stay elusive enough for them to approach and get caught by your Helis. You also need distance to deal with torpedos in time as they are quite slow given enough distance. Use the helicopters to drop their buoys ahead of the ships to detect the subs. Keep the ship away from the subs, the helis are more often than not enough to deal with them and in this game, subs can do nothing vs helicopters.
LMAO!! What's up Bro! I just discovered your channel and, I am like you. I thought I was going to have a hard time with the learning curve but, I did not. I watched a little bit of the first totourial and, once I learned the Weapons I quickly got the hang of it....I think? Good Luck to you, and I am happy to subscribe to see your progress. ✌🏾
Been on the fence about the game just because of the current lack of content, though I do love naval combat so will probably get it eventually. Great vid! You deserve more subscribers.
Bought it release date, it's amazing. Lack of content? Man, one mission just took me 11 hours(carrier group vs carrier group in pacific) It's built for modders, there are hundreds of missions and scenarios already , and a probability system in mission editor(yes, and it's very easy to use), that allows no mission to be the same. I'm tactics kind of guy, but God it's satisfying to see us carrier group defending against 32 kh-58 DEAD strike, with kh-59 disabling blow after it, and then, in an hour after rearm, a fab-500 explosive bombing of Iowa and Nimitz. Have you seen Russian ko-45 strafe Ticonderoga class? I have!
One tip about noise: you’re right that your ships make more noise when going faster. But even at slow speeds they’re never going to “out-stealth” a submarine. The sub will almost always hear you before you can detect it from your surface ships. That’s where the helos come in because they can help detect subs before they get in striking range of you.
@@TheBlackSnake88well active ship sonars they are useless mostly, cuz if sub is in active sonar range(unless you are doing some layer convergence and sound focusing shenenigans) , you are already dead. Tho sonar ping goes 3-10x farther then you can hear its return, and you just are broadcasting your position(not like sub already doesn't know where you are, by your loud as hell propeller, but why even bother) Active is only useful if you know there's a sub next to you already, and its very close, last Dutch pretty much or sub fucked up badly. Passive is king. Best way is to lay buoy nets around you and sometimes all stop and just listen. When you are static(and remember buoys are always static) you can hear way better. Hear better and buoys you can hear torp from father and even sub potentially.
Looks amazing but I played my first mission, the nato 1 star mission and u got 1 ship not launching missiles doing its own thing, u lose the escorts through an air attack, I know it’s a bug and u have to tell the ship to cease fire but it still does its own thing so I’m going to wait for the fixes and patches, I’m patient, I backed cyberpunk to come good so I’ll wait on this
Hey im also not good at the game, but if you like this type of game go for it, wargames like that have a bunch of people willing to help and tutorials online. So keep it up, its a very niche game but its worth it we that dont know much about jsut need to research a bit more ahah.
@@TheBlackSnake88it's not that bad brother I got it into 3 days hang in there. I just beefed up my sub to 80knots. And gave me sub 44 torpedos. Did some modifications to my playing likes.....it's a good game give it time and watch other videos. They have tips and learing curves
The problem is that they don't take into consideration those who want to learn but are new to this. Sad. That all these developers do is feed the small segment of the gamer base. The same base. New newbies.
We've been recieving quite some feedback on this particular point, and we're actively working on UI improvement to better communicate to players what is going on and to hopefully ease the learning curve. We also plan on expanding the encyclopedia with more tactically useful information as we go. /Nils
That is not true about the developing team for this game. There are underlying realities such as the work on the game is self financed (out of their OWN pockets) that forced them to release the game now and not a year later." The game is at a finished enough state to legitimately earn a qualified early access release.
I hope it not hard to play like Fleet Command i use to play, Thank for information it help me make decision I like that you learn from begin too haha can't image myself have the same experience
2 hour tutorial ... so is the refund timer on steam. But on a lighter note 17:05 " there is nothing going on " ... 2 seconds later TORPEDO IN THE WATER !!! 🤣
Steam 2 hour refund timer for "sim games" is a bit short i understand this games 2 hour tutorial completely. But steams 2 hour window is questionable at times

Yes! I can’t wait to see what this game becomes! Sims are definitely addictive, I appreciate the tips!

Thanks for the tips, I'm still figuring out the best way to deal with subs! 😭

That’s a fact!! I still need to learn how to properly use ship radars too

I've launched the game a couple of times and decided i don't have time to learn the mechanics. I'll just leave a review on steam
I get that lol, if you get time I think it's worth it to check back later after some updates!

This game is hard core, take your time and learn the ropes. Submarines kick arse.
Yes! Will wreck your entire fleet!

I would say repeating missions gives you a better understanding, I'm glad I could help!

Buy Gates of Hell ostfront on PC trust me
Bet, imma add this to my list of things to check out! Thx
Got gates of hell a couple of weeks ago, get the dlc though, very good rts
it's just COD cosplaying as an RTS, pretty intense but not a real military RTS.
