Things have gone kind of quiet on the new release front, it's almost like there's a new game release that has sucked all the oxygen out of development ;)


Obviously no one understood the dry humour in the previous post, so I will try and ask more directly.

Is there any kind of update as to a ...

Been a year since last beta. Any news?


Hi Neil, welcome to the forum. As btd64 (coordinator) above you there would say, "Soon".
What that translates to is anyone's guess. It has been in a "when it's done, it's done" state for a long time now. Last big news we heard was Matrix has it and is ...

Most of the issues people have are easy to correct with Scenario Editor.

Important is to get code sorted out and correct. Rest can be left for modders.

Individual ships and units can be easily corrected afterwards. It's historical game, not perfection of history.


Quite right Sardaukar. Also ...

So is Tracker still actively updated or not? I haven't messed around with it in quite a while so was wondering.

My father served in the USN beginning in Nov '41 with basic at Farragut, ID. Later as AO2 or Aviation Ordnanceman 2nd Class he taught gunnery school at Pensacola, FL before joining the fleet on Bon Homme Richard and lastly Randolph.
Assigned to Fighter/Bomber Squadron 16 (VBF-16) with SB2C ...

RJ:
No, I only meant vets of the board and WITP.

At the risk of irritating the vets here panzer51, I will pull out my well-worn nugget of WITP:AE wisdom:
Try your damnedest to "Embrace the Suck".
In other words, the game will not let you micromanage outcomes, so it tends to piss off folks new to the sim who come from other games where that is more ...

Against the AI opponent, with enough learning through Kull's Allied Spreadsheet you discover just how bare the US cupboard in the Pacific really was. Particularly escorts and ASW capable ships. So back to the topic at hand: I think this weakness along with a few others to husband where you can and ...

I guess I am a traditionalist- I play the default soundtrack, minus a couple that I don't care for, then replace those with theme-appropriate music. One I can think of immediately is Song of the High Seas from Victory at Sea.

I needed a bit of good news.

Nicely done GB, kudos for your efforts and continued support!

What you mean with pre-war OOB? pre 18th of July?

Mostly just that the SCW was a test bed for new tools of war, i.e., the Bf-109, along with concepts prior to WW2.

There is some flexibility with platforms. I order on my PC from Amazon, but have it set up to be accessible from my iPad Pro.
It is called the Kindle store but there are options.

The regular price is a bit high perhaps, but it hasn't gone up if memory serves, just stayed the same. Being that it goes on sale a least twice if not more per year there are enough chances to swoop in and get it cheap.
Regarding getting it running, the last big round of 2by3 tune-ups and switches ...

Thanks Treetop, I spotted this last night at work but haven't watched yet. You wouldn't think logistics could be interesting, but Beans, Bullets & Black Oil really opened my eyes to just how underprepared the US was for a Pacific war.
Great stuff.

You bet Senior Chief!
Us old sea dogs have to stick together (woof!)

For the benefit of those who would rather have Alfred's Logistics 101 on a pdf to peruse, here you go.
Enjoy!

Welcome back Mike, it's good to see you around the board again. Looking forward to your content!

I appreciate you making time to do testing RangerJoe. It takes a lot of time and dedication.
Hopefully it drops at some point this year.
