What players say
Players praise the authentic depiction of WW2 carrier operations but warn of a steep learning curve and no tutorial. Many struggle to understand basic actions like launching aircraft. The game is still in early access with bugs, crashes, and unfinished content, though long-time players find the core naval combat rewarding and realistic.
