Is there a Deep Submergance Vehicle Sim ? or something similar ?

Something where you can go down to the bottom of that 2 mile trench in the pacific ocean.
 
Not sure if it meets your reqs but Silent Hunter is the only Submarine game I can think of.



M.

what is that game like ? Is it 1st person or a 3rd person ? I guessed that it was similar to hearts of Iron like a kind of strategy game, that was just by looking at the box as ive seen no gameplay footage of it. Ive heard people say that silent hunter 2 is better than 3 because of DRM or something is this true.

Sorry for all the questions but I'm fed up of FPS games.:D
 
I really don't think SH4 will fulfill the OPs needs? Surely he's after a game where you take a ROV to the ocean floor, do some exploring etc?

Tbh it sounds like a good basis for a game :) some kind of MMO salvage game, you start off with snorkels/small boats and try and work your way up eventually to massive salvage ships and ROVs capable of reaching kms down :) you have to fulfill government salvage contracts, freelance stuff, historical missions to ships like titanic etc,

:p

yeah thats what I was thinking. It would be an excellent basis for a Game, say you have to photograph the captain of the Titanics Desk or catalogue Marine Life.:D

Seemingly there isnt a game like this out there but I bet Marine Biologists have such a SIM for training purposes ?

Any how I need a change and have never played a submarine game before so I will get the Silent Hunter game. I hope its imersive. Sick of BFBC 2 every night.
 
Can we even go to the bottom of the Mariana Trench?

It wouldn't be a very realistic sim if it let you go places we can't!
 
I miss Archimedes Dynasty from Blue Byte and that old Microprose favourite Subwar 2050. Brilliant and atmospheric games, especially Subwar where you could float between hot & cold layers in the ocean.
