  Looks great especially water lots of seagulls also handles life like internal camera looked really nice, there is not alot to do but i knew that before i purchased, this game has great potential if it stays on current path. I will follow this game and see how it pans out if your into the whole shipping aspect this game is for you so grab a copy and help the developer build the ocean version of ETS2. Only suggestion more detailed graphics selection, also the only resolution is native resolution so for me i had no choice but to play on 5760x1080 but the game ran perfect at this resolution, but i do think there should be option for this in game. Reel Big Kris does have a working suggstion in my comments also check out community hub for sticky post Looking foward to future updates and will adjust this when needed

  I enjoy this game alot. It is just one of the best ship simulators in the gaming industry, even though it's within hours of it's first release, I can tell that this is going to go well. I think if you love Ship Simulators, you should get this. Pros: *Very realistic water physics *Detailed Ships *Very detailed Bridges *Tugboat Physicis *Realistic Weather *Wipers on Bridge window that WORKS *Mission Editor *20 Missions Cons: *Tugboat line gets messed up when you tow a ship EDIT: Removed one Con. :)

  Hmm, mixed thoughts about this: Firstly some instructions might be nice! Gave up on tug scenario as too hard without instructions as to how to control engines. Moved onto ferry scenario = fared better but unable to dock in time after a couple of attempts. So tried the Calais to Dover freight ship opton instead: Enjoyed this more as no time limit and had time to explore steering options. One of the world's busiest shipping lanes was scarily devoid of other traffic! Slightly lost my bearings half way across Channel - better maps needed? Then just sank for no obvious reason which really annoyed me! Was doing a reasonable 14 knots in lumpy sea with no prior damage to ship! Pretty slow framerate when another ship passed me in Dover = given I have decent computer and graphics card. Looks promising - so long as additional ports and ships are added to initial release for free and not some exhorbintanly priced DLC! Also note that there is no option to save game in present release - have to play till you 'timeout' or sink (for no reason) in my case!

  As a current student at a Maritime Academy, I am really enjoying this game. It runs GREAT on my laptop and I hope the further development on this game strives. I hope this game will have a lot of new content in the future because I will be using it in my future to practice maneuvering. The game is very smooth and realistic other than the tug mission where you can slam a bulk carrier around with no consequences. Once again this is the best ship simulator that I have played since ship simulator extremes which is outdated and won’t run on my laptop. To the developers, keep up the good work and PLEASE add a container ship and maybe the ability to walk around the whole vessel not just the bridge. :)

  I'm not really sure why this is getting such rave reviews. The graphics are OK, but not "breathtaking." Also, there is very little actual game here, even for an early access title. You have very constrained mission areas to play around in, no roaming the high seas. The largest area is a trip across the English Channel at night. Also, the physics are somewhat suspect, as your boat cannot so much as touch anything else without sinking, no matter how gentle the inpact. Another black mark is that the UI and menus are very unpolished, and very little exists in the way of tutorials. Even yourincoming radio messages are simply texts, with no voice acting. You truly feel alone in the world they are presenting. Even though the game doesn't feel in the least bit like a finished game at this point, it is leaving early access.

  The release of this game is clearly premature. It will require at least an additional 500 man-hours to reach the status of what I would label a “final release”. In every other industry, a company would lose a tremendous amount of money and market value if they would decide to put such a product on the market. Unfortunately the whole game industry seems to take the same path of laziness, which is why I cannot personally blame the developers of European Ship Simulator. Another thing, I understand the word “Simulator” as a software that tries to emulate reality as accurately as possible within technical feasibility. And by this definition that game does not even come close to a simulator. Maybe I will come back to that entry next year in the hope to see the positive changes, but as for now, I definitely not encourage other people to buy this game.

  This game is no way or shape ready to be considered a final release. I purchased the early access so that I could be part of the development process, which I was expecting to last 12-18 months. Here we are a month or two later and its considered "retail" ready. No, this is yet another embarrassment to the Early Access/Kickstarter way of doing things. If you are looking for a "simulator" do not buy this. Anybody that considers this as a simulator doesn't know the meaning of the word as it has no simulator aspects to it. I am very disappointed in the game, the developers and Steam for continuing to allow developers to release early access games that they have no intention of finishing and just want to make a quick buck. If the game remained in Early Access I wouldnt have an issue, but this is not a finished product. Early Access and kickstarter products like this are legalised theft, that is all I have to say.

  At this point, the game isn't really worth buying (I, unfortunately, can't get a refund. But, maybe I can help you save a few hard earned dollars). I have a decently beefy machine. Not a monster computer, but a 6 core 4.2ghz machine with an AMD R9 200 series video card and 8gb of RAM. It doesn't struggle with any games I play - except this one. The frame rate is just horrid (sub 10fps). And changing the video settings doesn't seem to do anything for me. Additionally, the gameplay is, well... lame. I absolutely love sim games (days of play time on ETS2), but this is a huge disappointment. Other ships in the harbor will run right into you, even if you run your horn. The controls are poorly implemented, in that you can't easily reset them to "0" by adjusting them left or right, as you do to increase the throttle. I haven't played a ton so far, because it is frankly frustrating to play. I was suckered in by the decent reviews that were likely posted with this being an "early access" game in mind. Now that it is a real release, I can only call B.S. on this one. Devs - feel free to credit my account for my $20. I know you won't, but that'd be the right thing to do.

  First, European Ship Simulator was not created by the same development team that brought you Eurotruck Simulator. Arguably, there was an effort by the Euroboat team to make it appear that way. Unfortunately, with European Ship Simulator, what you get is a shallow experience at best without any campaign mode, meaningful objectives, or even a sense of immersion to say the least. I've completed 4 of the missions so far, successfully I might add, and it wasn't challenging at all. You have a short selection of "Missions" along side a mission editor. I started off with a tug boat mission. The tug boat itself was sufficiently detailed and breaking into open sea from the harbor was satisfying, the choppiness kicked up and there seemed to be correct current physics to deal with. That, unfortunately, was about all there was to be impressed by. Dropping the tug was a simple press-this-button, which displays a bunch of balloons around your boat. All I had to do was select one of my ballons, and click on the balloon from the ship I would be towing. This easy process connects the two balloons together with a rope, instantly. At this point I'm ready to tow. The massive tanker's front end would dip inappropriately into the sea while towing, which was weird. The physics aren't perfect but I can get passed it. There is no complicated mooring procedure either once you get to your destination. You simply float to the next arrow and you're done. Congratulations. *yawn* Later, I tried the speedboat. A speedboat mission! My objective was to drive my speedboat to a yacht and pick up a rich lady in distress. On my way, I clipped through just about every bit of ocean, I was practically a submarine. Additionally, the reaction of the boat to the choppy water felt so unauthentic that it made me feel like the developers included this irritation just to force me to press the A and D keys a whole bunch of times and not fall asleep. To spice things up, I tried the cruise liner. I figured, this should be a challenge. Wrong again, and that brings me to my conclusion. European Ship Simulator is a disaster at the price it is asking. I've played more complex and immersive sims on the iPad. I don't know how some people came the the conclusions they did by recommending this game, it really does make me wonder. The game offers you nothing in return for your effort. It is over-simplified, unrealistic and broken. Wait for the massive content update it needs and in the meantime there are better boating simulators out there.

  One of the worst games I've ever played. No, change that. This is the worst game I have ever played in my entire life. This game is buggy and boring does not even come close to how bad this game is.
