  • Summary: The gameplay in Naval Ops: Warship Gunner involves two unique phases: design and battle. At the start of the design phase, players are given a mission briefing. Based on the mission?s objectives, players can construct or retrofit their ship with weapons, a propulsion system, aircraft, and defensive hardware. At this stage, players can also invest in new technology, develop new weapons, or purchase parts. Players can also bypass the process of ship design, and proceed directly into battle using ships based on actual naval craft. The battle phase puts the player?s real-time combat skills to the test. Players engage surface vessels and aircraft, destroy communications garrisons, and avoid high-G anti-ship missiles. Combat missions can take place around the clock making nighttime attacks a strategic option. Dense fog and heavy storms are just some of the other conditions that players must contend with. For help, players can rely on fully integrated combat systems providing complete situational awareness, and access to all weapons systems. [KOEI]… Expand

    It's an arcade game at its heart, and it's a whole lot of fun. [Aug 2003, p.32]

    With some perseverance to get past the initial stages, Naval Ops develops into a fun blaster.

    The end result is strategy overload for the action gamer and action overload for the strategy gamer. Those in between won't be particularly impressed, either.

    Great game! I just love it when one can build a ship how you want, then go out a blow everything else up with it, most satisfying, mabye they should re-release it with on-line capabilty so we can all have a mass brawl in the ocean! What fun that would be!… Expand

    I agree, it was a great game. But it does have it's flaws, for one thing the graphics are a little lousy, the controls are somewhat hard to master and the challenges can be overwhelming. But it more than makes up for it by being stuffed with action, realistic war strategies, and a good store weaponry that's actually being built by scientists. But I personally recommend its "sequel" Warship Gunner 2, although it's controls will definitely throw you off your game with Warship Gunner 1.… Expand
