Gaming News - February 2004
Waterford, CT (February 11, 2004) - Sonalysts Inc. today released
information on their new naval warfare game, Dangerous Waters.
From Sonalysts:
Dangerous Waters will allow the player total first person control over seven
of the world's most potent air, surface and subsurface naval platforms:
-- Oliver Hazard Perry [Guided Missile Frigate]
-- MH-60R Seahawk [Anti-Submarine Helicopter]
-- P-3C Orion [Maritime Patrol Aircraft]
-- Kilo class 636/877 [Diesel attack submarine]
-- Seawolf class SSN [Nuclear attack submarine]
-- Akula I/II class SSN [Nuclear attack submarine]
-- 688(I) class SSN [Nuclear attack submarine]
Each platform will feature 3D graphics and Sonalysts' trademark: authentic
modeling of sensor performance and sonar characteristics, both in the air and
through the ocean environment. Ships, planes, helicopters, and submarines in
Dangerous Waters will possess realistic flight characteristics, buoyancy, air
resistance, weather effects, ship control, and maneuvering. Each ship will have
multiple action stations that must be cleared by the US Dept. of Defense before
commercial release.
Players will compete in two distinct campaigns. Their actions and decisions
will have a profound effect on the missions that follow. The use of dynamic
elements such as probability of inclusion, dynamic inclusion of mission goals,
and rules of engagement that can change mid-mission all ensure that the
campaigns with never play the same way twice.
On, above, and below the ocean's surface, S.C.S. - Dangerous Waters will
thrust the player into a fast-paced blue water battle and allow them to
experience all facets of naval combat in one immersive gaming experience.
Players may command a platform on their own in multiplayer or collaborate with
multiple players in "Multi-station Mode" as they each operate individual
stations and strive to work together as a team on the same platform, a first in
naval simulations. The simulation genre has been quiet lately--Dangerous Waters
will change that in a big way.
Sonalysts Combat Simulations - "Dangerous Waters" is due to ship in Q2 2004
for PC.
