Hi,

Saw this on FB, .. so, I though I would post here. Please give it a YES on Steam Greenlight .. :)


Announcing Cold Waters
Spiritual Successor to the Microprose Classic "Red Storm Rising"

After tracking a Soviet landing force bound for Iceland it is time to plan your attack. Do you silently close in to torpedo the landing ships and escape during the resulting chaos? Or strike with long-range missiles but risk counterattack from the enemy escorts? Have you detected them all, could another submarine be out there listening for you? Has the hunter become the hunted? Will you survive the Cold Waters?

Inspired by the 1988 classic "Red Storm Rising", take command a nuclear submarine in a desperate attempt to prevent "mutually assured destruction" when the Cold War gets hot and WWIII begins.

You will be tasked with intercepting convoys, amphibious landings, insertion missions and battling it out with enemy warships, submarines and aircraft. Thankfully, an arsenal of wire-guided torpedoes, anti-ship and cruise missiles and the occasional SEAL team are on board to keep the Iron Curtain at bay.

Major Features:
- Real-time naval combat
- Over 40 classes of ships and submarines all meticulously researched
- Dynamic Campaign where your performance matters
- Realistic sonar model
- Authentic Soviet combat tactics

Water too cold. Couldn't get far enough in to vote.

Definitely cool. I loved Red Storm Rising at the time even though it looks totally dire now. I'll be voting. O0

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat

Oh hell yes!

Funny enough I had RSR booted up about a year ago on my old laptop.  It's still a fun game, but the graphics are hard to tolerate.

If these guys can pull off that old magic, this might be a new favorite.

Voted - looks cool.
Made by the same people as atlantic fleet ? Like that game but hopefully this is a little more wargame ?

Oh, hell yes x10!

:coolsmiley:



I can tell it's using the Atlantic Fleet engine.  Which is a great sign. 

Didn't expect a Cold War naval strategy game from you guys.  With dynamic campaign, even.  This is awesome!

I'd like to see the UI, this looks to be an arcade game and not a "sub-sim" ala Silent Hunter.  I never played RSR, was it more more "game" and less sim (i.e., light)?

I played RSR an enormous amount. Nothing better than shooting off your torps at a 45 degree angle to your target, letting them go for a loong time, then angling them in.

If you had skill, you could keep them below the layer, then pop them up at the last minute. I had many, many attacks where I was never detected.
