Really loving this game my biggest hope is actual AI crewmen and vehicle operators and pilots let us use manned vehicles with X-COM style levelling of characters who can also die. I would also love if we were able to have players pilot the helicopters and aircraft in the cockpit rather than a drone. But overall loving the game solo is a problem though.

Love your review. I remember playing the original when I was a kid. While I do enjoy it, it was a tedious experience. When I came accross the enemy carrier the first time, it was such an amazing experience even when I was blown to bits. Then I run away from the carrier to capture more island and once all island was capture (I think enemy carrier capture neutral island faster than us but capturing our island back took longer. You will eventually capture all island in this game), i started hunting the carrier. Once I intercepted it, it was such an amazing experience. Again, I was blown to bits. But after few tries, I beat the enemy carrier. At that moment, Carrier Command was one of the greatest game of all time i have ever play. Even until today. Point is, you have to beat the enemy carrier to properly review this game. Despite all the bugs you encounter in this game, it was was worse 30 years ago. What you shown me in your review, is an amazing Carrier Command game that have few annoying bugs. Looking forward to buy the game and watching your other reviews. Hopefully, you have beaten the game that you are reviewing.

I think sound could be better and would both help immersion and battlefield awareness. And I hope that the game plays into its genre in that you gradually reveal intel and grind at the enemy island in a risk/reward proposition with a large range of legitimate approaches with pros and cons.

It's worth saying that in the original Carrier Command, even though it was a single player game, the enemy carrier still took islands way faster than you. This was mainly because its speed wasn't hindered by proximity to islands which your carrier was, but also the enemy carrier was amphibious, so it just drove up onto an island, captured it and drove off and on to the next island. Your advantage was that your carrier had a big laser cannon on the top which the enemy lacked, the enemy basically had nothing but planes and cruise missiles, it didn't have any tanks.

Stockpile / resupply was more intuitive. There are some aspects where CC1 is better than CC2 (though I did not have much time spent yet with CC2). See buildings being built on islands was really giving the impression that there was an AI doing its stuff. Well, there was an AI inside those 64k RAM. Even more amazing looking back what programmers did with that limited hardware.

And the overall units oders system need improvements so you can select multiple units give combat orders or patrol oders easier so they attack enmies on sight in patrols and many other a recall to carrier order that you can give quick and i can go on and on so hopefully the start asap with improvements.

@@mrwho30 WOW! That was a really clever and crafty tactic! However, in the late eighties, I was just an Asperger case (and still am, I am afraid) in my early teens who had to concentrate on school a lot so my brains were not nearly as smart back then as they are today. Therefore, I could not figure out immediately which expectably realistic features of that game were there and which ones were not. However, now my brains figure out that if, in the original game, the enemy carrier is LOGISTICALLY SURROUNDED just in the manner you said, then it can not hope to escape all that far. Actually, there is nothing it can do maneuverwise except tactically change its speed and course to avoid your laser pulses from carrier and missiles/bombs from Mantas until it totally runs out of gas. Then you can destroy it with any weapons you have the most in your supply stock (as a replacement to ones you intend to spend). If it was not logistically surrounded, then your only hope was that the enemy carrier, once being grievously damaged, did not turn to its heading in time before bolting. If it was fast enough to bolt in time, then it escaped. If not, then it blew up to lots of small smithereens and you got a choice whether to continue the game or not. I chose to continue....all the way until my Walrus shot the virus to enemy main islands command centre so I had two base islands: My original own AND the enemys own that the virus forced to change side for me. (Yes, I was a perfectionist who wanted *ABSOLUTE* victory...which I got). Once all islands were taken, I either no longer had the choice to continue or then, I did not see any reason to continue. In the very north, there was the island you had to be careful with: It was so far out that going to it emptied you of all gas so you had to immediately succeed in taking it. Departing it also took out all your gas. I found it outright RIDICULOUS that the enemy carrier was AT LEAST as fast as the air-to-air missiles fired by my Manta....even close to the shore of an island. Those were what I remember from the original game. Soon we will see what does this new version have to offer us...

Loved the original. May have noticed a lot of the UI is an homage to the original. Stylized graphics, believe it or not, are a huge PLUS for the game. Anyone who played Carrier Command:Gaea Mission knows how confusing it gets on an island covered with simulated realistic vegetation. CC2's style helps playability and frame rate. Unfortunately, this UI places emphasis first on VR, and second on multiplayer, then a trialing third gameplay. This UI places unnecessary hurdles to jump over while also contending with a quick AI (Yes, the original also had an enemy carrier that was quicker and took islands faster). Ideally there would have been an option to run all ship and vehicle functions from the center command screen eliminating the dizzying need to move from one station to another, a nauseating experience for those who contend with motion sickness. Good review video - thanks

Yeah this game is frustrating. I'm frustrated with how long everything takes. Aircraft take a long time to takeoff and land. You can very easily outpace your own supply lines since the carrier is so much faster than barges. Plane carried missiles feel useless since it takes 2 to take out a land vehicle target. Seeing how quickly a helicopter can takeoff and land makes it apparent to me that you really shouldn't bother with planes or the like since a heli with guns can clear an entire island. Meanwhile I have to wait for some plane to do its entire loop in the pattern before it even decides to make an attempt at landing, during which time several helicopters could have taken off, but are just stuck waiting below deck for that one plane to land. This game is frustrating. It takes a long time to do anything. I play this game with other people while while simultaneously playing another game with them.

I played CC1 back on the Amiga, the pathfinding as expected for back then was exactly the same. If you autopiloted a Walrus it'd get stuck on a tree and just sit there. I'm not sure how it works in the sequel but you could change your 'warehouse' island to another island closer. My usual method of quickly disposing of an enemy island in the original was mostly missiles from the manta on the base and then rebuilt with a waiting walrus nearby or i'd fire missiles into the enemy aircraft building and then suicide a manta into it then using a virus bomb with the walrus to capture. The enemy carrier was easy to dispose of, again... two or three kamikaze mantas would make short work of it but... doing so would effectively end the game and only leave capturing islands left to do. ....for this game? It looks good but the price seems a little steep.

Yeah but the game is 50 bucks... Maybe if it was 30? And even then only if it became popular and I could get some proper idea on if it was fun or not, like what happened with "Sea of Thieves". But that game had significantly better graphics and is still 10 dollars cheaper. Loved Gaea Mission and I think with a better-writen story (or just no story), Some better AI, More updated mechanics, and with the multiplayer addition, that game could be a hit.

Whats with the obsession with multiplayer these days? there are a few games that are hugely succesful and are basically made for multiplayer (like CS, COD, LOL, DOTA and the likes) but i doubt most other games will be played in multiplayer a lot. especially slow games for adults, like this. it's hard enough to find time to play alone, let alone find anyone to join.

Don't understand your take on the control scheme whilst in helicopter. Is it mouse you are using? What is the difficulty with it? Is it Joystick? Joystick controller? Is it a configuration that cannot be reconfigured? What difficulty were you having with what ever controller or control scheme you had to use? Can I have little bit more info on this please, before purchase.

they actually released Carrier command 1 Gaia mission which was a much better singleplayer experience and now the game has progressed some with new features but i wish they would port over some of the Gaia mission games island builds and more automated tracking and tagging system as options

this game mostly suffers from bad tutorial. for example, your problem with the barges is easily solved. make the order first, and then produce the product on the island.

The originals was AWESOME by the way. I used to play it on the Amiga 500 back in the late 80's. I've been looking for an emulator for years. I've been looking forward to this "sequel" for a while now...

So the waypoint thing isnt needed you can just drag a unit straight to where you want it to go and it will make a path for itself,you must've had a glitch because I have never had the problem of having to set a waypoint to then be able to dock or airlift, and the air units do need space to do a gun run,not a glitch, its realistic. You dont see pilots irl doing a 90 degree turn downwards to hit a target all the time, they need space, the units will do it eventually. You just need to give them time and have patience. And you can get resources straight from the island as long as you are next to it. Also you dont need four people to be effective, you only need a minimum of two, going over 4 is useless as people will just be stuck in seats th at you aren't using like logistics in a battle or the turrets/ main weapons of your carrier when you are just moving to another island.

Very fair review, It's a great game but has tons of bugs, lacks many features and doesn't have much depth. The price tag doesn't help it at all. That said, I've got 35 hours in so far and can't put it down. The learning curve is steep, and much harder to do on your own. A lack of server browser makes finding people to play with a hassle. Yet asking (without discount) a triple A games price tag. lol.

I played the original. It was groundbreaking when it came out. This new Carrier Command still needs a few things. But it's not a bad game. It'd be nice to have a way to manually increase the defensive level of the conquered islands, and it could have the base building as it was on the original Carrier Command, where you could build defense, resource, or factory islands. Where NPC planes and land vehicles would spawn. This one it's just conquer the island, and it's done. :-\ I've flew over conquered islands and I do not see defenses.

This is definitely a successor to the original, but there was also Carrier Command: Gaea Mission in 2012. IMO the no. 2 refers to that one. store.steampowered.com/app/65740/Carrier_Command_Gaea_Mission/

The original version of the game that I played on a Commodore Amiga. In that version the enemy carrier did not have a mast mounted gun turret, but did possess missiles and vehicles. The one time I totally beat the game early on was when I ran into the enemy carrier and destroyed it with ship to ship gun fire without the enemy carrier being able to respond. You could nominate your logistics base to a different island as needed, the risk being is that you could be cut off from your logistics and force your carrier to run of out fuel, vehicles or other supplies. The enemy carrier was also at risk at being cut of from resupply making it possible to strand the opposing carrier at an island allowing you to eventually hunt it down and destroy it. The original game had a slow learn, long burn characteristic that was fun once you had mastered it. Very involved but rarely matched by other titles. The game's concept is something that seemingly has gone out of fashion. Multiple versions of open world games and Battlefied Call of Duty Fortnight shooters have taken over the gaming landscape. Every genre has its place, but original or new concepts don't come from the large publishers any more.
