The folks over at Pocket Tactics have reviewed Atlantic Fleet. Couple of highlights are below or head to Pocket Tactics for the full review.
“If the true test of a game is how much time you spend playing it, then Atlantic Fleet is probably the game of the year.”
“The tactical model that underpins Atlantic Fleet is a remarkable balance of movie-style action and detailed simulation, and that creates a lot of emergent fun.”
“The finishing touch on top of all of these elements is Atlantic Fleet’s canny AI, which seems to be as attached to its ships as you are to yours.”
Congrats, Gentlemen…!! I wish i could play it already… (Padfone S)
I realy love Atlantic fleet – since i played pacific fleet i wished this game would be adopted for Atlantic – and you did a good job
but i miss the ship upgrade system fom pacific fleet
i would at least like to reenfoce the anti aircraft guns (witch had be done with nearly all ships during ww2)
an additional raidar against the smoke screen would be nice
and i have 2 idears for the superweapons like in pacific fleet
the “fritz x” shipwrack missiele and the “tallboy” bonb for the british
its also a bit unfair that the germans dont have an aircraftcarrier could you please add the “Graf Zeppelin” she never serverd in active duty but she was 90% complete in ww2
ps i also would like to see the the type XXI 21 submariene in the game
Good feedback.
The upgrade system was dropped in favour of many more ship classes. In addition, now if you lose a ship in a campaign or BotA, you have to buy another to replace it.
So if you lose a Destroyer, you could replace it with one with heavier guns (a Tribal), or many more torpedoes (J,K,N Class). This essentially replaces the upgrade system as you buy ships with the characteristics you want in your fleet.
Fritz X is already in game along with the Hs293.
Tallboy wasn’t used against shipping targets, but Gran Slam was and the latter is in as well.
thanks for your quick answer
i understand the intenson but i think the option of making your favorit ships better was a good motivation for earning credits specialy when you already have the “best” ships
the upgrade system dosent have to be as huge as in PF were you can add amour – just some litte gadges like raidar , better anti air guns , damage control
one last think the “Tirpitz” was refitted with torpedo launchers from a Z class destroyer
and hid by a “Tallboy”
sorrry dont want to sound like a “kow it all” i am just a history nerd who loves this game so mutch that i play it as long as my powerbank can sustain it 🙂
and want to see this game perfect
Its a great suggestion, but oh some much code 🙂
Maybe if you have time and think about an add on 🙂
I am not a programer but cant you just take the specific code lines for the upgrate menue from PF adjust it a bit and add them into AF ?
Any chance of seeing Iowa Class BBs – I believe USS Iowa served for awhile in Atlantic and transported FDR across Atlantic
It is already available on android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.killerfishgames.atlanticfleet
I downloaded it on my Nook HD (android) and i can’t even get the game to start. All I get is a black screen and the error message “Atlantic fleet is not responding.”
There are issues with some devices.
We’re looking into the problems.
Version 6 should be available any time now, please contact us via the support page and let us know if your problem still exists after version 6 is installed.
I hope tomorrow its aviable on Amazon
IS OUT ON DROIDS!!!!
imma buy later and let you guys know it goes 🙂
any androids who had bought it? how is it?
uhm killerfish games, on what android device did you test this game? thanks
If you’re having a problem, please email us your device type and Android version.
I have a samsung gts5303 anroid version 4.0.4
Having as problem? What is it?
im not trying to spam sirs , just too excited, but are you going to release a pdf game manual for Atlantic fleet?
Eventually…
I just played a few custom and campaing battles and it is awesome.All game logic/coding was created by one man?It is better than world of warships in its current state.I hope that you will add iowa or north caroline ships.One suggestion – possibility to change distance between enemy and player ships in custom battle before the actual battle start would be nice.Running on Nexus 7 2012 wifi 16GB android 5.1 without any problem.Notification bar tell me that system update to 5.1.1 is downloaded and ready for install but Im scared to install because it can destroy the game functionality.
Yup we have only a single programmer.
You can set the starting distances to longer under the Options/Help section.
worked well on ASUS fonepad 7 fe170cg android 5.0
my low screen resolution however is a bummer, jagged…, but otherwise great gameplay 🙂
Nah its not working on bluestack :-(.Instant crash after clicking on it.Android 4.4.2
Crash on start up? Might be it is not getting the other part of the game file from Google Play. Working on a fix.
I found another virtual machine like bluestack called Andy OS and it has no problem with game.
Does it require 512 RAM available Or does the phone have to come with at least 512RAM
I think its the minimum spec for a phone
P.S I also have black screen and the error message Atlantic fleet is not responding.
My device is a samsung galaxy Tab 7.7 GT-P3810 android 4.0.4
Thx
pas what’s the name of the music score of the game atlantic fleet
It’s kinda catchy-which the battleships firing their projectiles in background of course
Music score was created by French composer Aleksi Aubry-Carlson.
The individual tracks do not have names (yet).
Looking into it. Should have a fix out soon.
hello killerfish how far can the torpedoes run i thought it was a bug that the wakes are still in the water lol
Torpedoes run over multiple turns now. Their range and speed are based on type and navy and are historically based.
A torpedo overshooting its target will “despawn” if no other targets are nearby so you don’t have to sit and watch it wander off.
Hello its a great game I am amazed that this is possible on a tablet,, such an amazing work 🙂
Btw is it possible to have an option to make the game fullscreen? Like hiding the home and back, coz the game is not using the fullscreen on my 7in tablet,still amazing without it but just extra options hehehe
Hmm, it should be full screen by default. Can you please email us a screenshot.
Whats ur email ad sir?
Click on the Support link at the top of this page. There’s a mail form there.
Any chance the Amazon store version is going to be up soon? An answer would be lovely
Don’t know when. Once we get the game running stable on Android devices it will go up to Amazon for Android/Kindle devices.
When are we going to get a downloadable manual for Atlantic Fleet? Love the game BTW.
Working on a PDF manual now.
I have got a “Everlasting black loading scrin” bug on my PRESTIGIO PAP4040 DUO device. Android 4.0.4
That is a bug with downloading the additional data for some devices. Fix is on the way.
i found all the phone with MTK cpu can’t run the game or quit when i playing.may be Not Compatible the MKT CPU,can you fit it?thank you
Verified via email: installing version 6 fixes this.
there is already a version 6??? on what platform is this?
On Android.
I updated yet it still says 1.0 instead of 6 on gamescreen
Yeah forgot to change that…
Add more ships and new modes…For android please
When are you going to add mines and can you add the British q boats I know there are ww1 but it would be an iterating what if. Also could you add the Panther 1 jet on the U.S. Carries because they were planned for ww2 but ww2 closed before it whent into action could please add a German carrier and the minesweepers also could you add the pt boats. In order of importance: mines, q boat, German carrier , and jet
How about you wait until everyone has a working version?
Hi! where i can get a pdf manaul of “AF” like “help” in the game?, and is there are plans on future to translate your masterpiece (I’m not joking) on russian?
P.S. Ukrainian fans will be greatful.
Thanks!
We’re working on getting a PDF for the manual together along with a series of tutorials and other player guides.
German translation is the first priority (given the subject matter) and we’ll see where it goes after that.
Does this game has a fps lock?On my second tablet lenovo a3500-fl the game looks smoother but on my nexus 7 it looks like capped on 30 fps.Both pacific and atlantic fleet.
No, might be the different GPUs on the devices or something else?
Yes there are different gpus but mali-400mp in lenovo is slower than the one in tegra 3.Other unity engine games are ok.
Also the texture on water plane is downscaled.I can see a big pixels with different water colors.
On both devices? Might be a shader issue. Restarting game help?
Its happening only on Nexus 7 with tegra 3 cpu.Restarting the game wont help.
Je suis vraiment comptant d’avoir payer se jeux il trop bien manque le mode online et les langue sur le menu
Could you please get the Amazon Version up?
Working on solving Google Play issues first. It is coming 🙂
I would be really nice if you could choose what kind of airstrike (bombs, rockets, torpedoes, etc) you want in single battles, and also carrier aircraft load out. Otherwise, this game is awesome!
Agree, we *might* implement a menu to select them.
On iPad mini 2 I found this bug in single battle. When your scrolling through ships way to fast the ships turn black or white it’s kinda creepy.
Can you give us the ability to post pictures on this website so I could show you how it looks? Or a little video clip?
Known issue, fixed for next update.
There’s this glitch where it says that a ship is sinking but the game doesn’t move on 🙁
What game mode did this happen in? Your ship or enemy?
Only work around is to unload game and re-load.
Battle of the Atlantic to my enemy
It is a stuck, game is thinking. you can wait it over… 1-3mins max.
Killerfish Games, I just found out the H class battleships are in Atlantic Fleet. Is it possible to play as that kind of ship?
You mean the small H-39,the medium H-41 or the large H-44?
To reply might be considered a spoiler 🙂
????
Also, could we add the Lion class battleships, or HMS Vanguard?
let them fix the game so people on Amazon store can get the game first…
That has been done
Any Amazon news?
I saw two H-39 class battleships in the game. To clarify, it was encountered in the 40th mission of the simplified campaign mode of the Allies. They were named “Hutten”, and “Berlichlingen”.
some kind of hidden content??
Cool
What is the main gun caliber?
When will mines be on killerfish games?
Alright killerfishgames soon as your finished with Amazon its time for it to be released on playstatation store 🙂
How do you get Frix X and Hs293s in the game? Also how do you keep going in Battle of the Atlantic after it says we (the Allies) are wining?
Once the allies (or axis) have won, that is the end of that campaign.
Admire your war summary page (or try to work out what wen wrong) and then start a new campaign.
They are randomly assigned in Custom Battles.
In BotA there is a random chance for them later in the war for zones with German air-cover.
Cheers,
Paul
Just a few things
1.Can we be allowed to decide where the ships are in formation in custom
2.The sub always spawns where it will be out of range for the whole game
3.Torpedo sometimes despawn instead of exploding
How goes the Amazon store version, could we get an update please
Working on it. We are fixing bugs for the 1.07 update, that will be the initial Amazon release version.
One more thing, how can you resupply at sea for the Germans?
Yes. End your turn in a zone with a resupply tender and the ship/s will be re-armed with shells and torpedoes.
Press the “Abc” button to see zone names (and where the tenders are if playing Germany).
Is it marked with a red ship?
Yes a red “tanker” icon.
The H-39 had 16 inch guns. And I found they aren’t playable. Let’s tell the developers to make them playable soon, along with the Lion class or Vanguard, after Kindle version is released.
Hmm, what if they could be unlocked somehow?
Cool, will it be available in custom battle, because it seems like it may be a chance to imput an in app perchase.
From play store: No In Apps/Advertising. No Pay-to-Progress. One Price = Full Game.No one want to buy pieces of game as dlc.Killerfish isn´t EA or WG or another stupid mobile developer which build microtransaction system first and then game on it.The only in app purchase in this game should be Expansion pack with pacific campaing.By the way killingfish how many ships is possible to unlock?
Correct, if we ever considered using In-App purchases it would be for new campaigns/ship packs.
They can 🙂
H-39 ships can be unlocked? Going to play the campaign now.
Is there a estimate on when the fix will be released to Google play?
Not yet.
They can gm 11:)
I know you’ve probably heard this a lot, but I was just thinking about some ships you could potentially add in the future after the Amazon release and after Android gets squared away. Just a list, H39-H44 battleships, the Lion class of battleships, the HMS Vanaguard, the HMS Ark Royal, the Graf Zepplin, and the O class battlecruisers.
And the Sovetsky Soyuz-class battleships.
Please add the Ark Royal soon!
I think soviet ships could be interesting, but if they added those ships they would need to add American ships.
What about U-505?
And Operation Primrose?
Hang on, what about U-505 and Operation Primrose?
Unfortunately the game doesn’t support “capture” of enemy units.
Great game!!!
But I ran into some problem during the Battle of the Atlantic-Campagne.
In Week 2 of April 1942 I cannot advance. it just says “Allied Sea Power Dominates the Atlantic”.
Does that mean I lost the game???
I sank almost all the BBs, BCs and CVs (820,585 tons). merchants Sunk: 5,323,930 tons.
Is that a bug or what did I wrong?
That is the end of that campaign: If you’re playing Allies, you won. Otherwise you lost.
The campaign is based on the historical amounts of merchant tonnage required to starve out Britain.
300,000 tons per month in the early war, 700,000 tons per month once the US joins the war.
I know you get this request a lot, but anyway, can you please never add in app perchases because it may be to temping to go quantity of quality for you, no offense. Also could your next game be work war one based.
Im pretty sure the developers are determined not to ad in app purchases
We agree…
The only in-app purchases we would ever consider would be a new campaign (theatre) + ships. However most likely we’d do those as sequel titles.
Please do no in app perchases ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Too many good games have been spoiled for me because of me wanting some add on!)
Can you please stop the Allied sea power Dominates the Atlantic and make it so you continue in to 1945 and then tell who won?
Maybe. We felt it would drag out if you sunk the bulk of the enemy fleet and just had to cycle through turns to 1945 to get to the end…
So we made it end based on the tonnage quotas.
how about sail era naval battles? massive broadsides on wooden ships would be spectacular ^^
pirates, privateers, etc., i know nothing is impossible with you guys!
No!
I just reached the final mission for the campaign of the Allies. It looks like you’re going to fight two H class, two Bismarcks, and two destroyers.
When I go the menu where you buy ships, I can’t see H class battleship. The best I can purchase is Bismarck. If you claim you can play as them, how do you get them?
Have you successfully completed any campaigns?
Will you add the biggest H class ship:the H-44 battleship?
I haven’t completed any campaigns. Last mission is too hard. I have to fight four battleships and two destroyers at the same time. I can only use up to 3 ships in a campaign mission.
yeah!! really hard!!!!
Killerfish Games, should the next game you make have playable ships from the immediate post-WW2 era to modern day?
If it will, we should be able to use modernized Iowa-class with Tomahwk, Harpoon, and Phalanx.
This could happen when Atlantic Fleet is done with updates.
Yes,and there should be modenised Kirov class line cruisers.
modeRnised*
That would be cool. Perhaps a potential USN vs Soviet Navy conflict?
Yes, and if this is going to happen, we should have a Cold War, or World War 3 dynamic campaign. Some nations to be in the game are US, Soviet Union, then becomes Russia eventually, China, UK, France, Japan. India, and others.
Some aircraft for delivering airstrikes: B-47, B-52, Tu-95, Tu-160, Tu-22, F-4, A-4, A-1, Su-25, Su-34, B-2, B-1, F-18, F-35, and others.
USN Destroyers: from Mitscher-class to Arleigh Burke Flight III and Zumwalt
USN Cruisers: from Des Moines and Boston class to Ticonderoga class.
USN aircraft carriers: from Midway class to Gerald R. Ford class
USN frigates: from Bronstein class to Oliver Hazad Perry class
Littoral Combat Ship should be in the game.
I would support the idea of modern sea battle game, but its a bit problematic tho(
– US vs Soviet campaign should be from the late 50s to 94 only. For obvious balance and realism. No planned soviet ships, no US super weapons…etc.
– Prblem with distance… ASMs fly 2-300km or more… not speaking of aircraft…
– smart weapons…. little we can interact, events mostly depend on tech vs tech rolls. And thats a lot of guesswork, and subjective decision making – neverending west vs east technology debates)
– air combat, and the increased air power oriented warfare… you know it.
Of course i’d like to see (or plan) such game, but not an easy task.
There should also be the newest warships, including the America-class LHD, CVN Gerald R. Ford, JDS Izumo, and Zumwalt class, and multiple Areleigh Burke class variants Flight I to Flight III.
When missiles are fired at modern ships, the CIWS should attempt to shoot it down.
How do i unlock the h-39? i completed the campaign.
Which navy did you play and did you win the campaign?
United Kingdom? The one with King George V
If you completed it then you would have unlocked the Lion Class BB.
Killerfish Games, how can I see and buy a Lion class battleship? I completed the Allied simplified campaign, but I cannot see it.
So you earned 3 stars on level 50. Did you get the victory screen? And at the bottom did it say Lion Class BB unlocked?
If so, the Lion should now be available in Custom Missions and future Allied Campaigns. BotA is unlocked separately.
I completed the Battle of the Atlantic as the Germans and won. It said I unlocked the H-39 BB but when I restarted another German BotA campaign it wasn’t in the shipyard list. Does it just unlock at a historical date? Like along with the Bismarck?
Bug with current version 🙁
Will it give me the H-39 when the bug is fixed or am I just kinda screwed? Does the game remember the victory? It’s all good though, I’m so impressed with this game and your effort I’m happy no matter what!
Hey where are the Frix X!
All that’s there are Hs293s!
FritzX is available on Dornier Do217 aircraft. It is pretty rare.
Please make air strikes optional in single battle please
Do you mean for Custom Battles?
Other single battles are historical and only have aircraft if they actually contributed to that battle.
Yes
Killerfish Games, how can I send in a B-24 Liberator for an airstrike? I don’t know how to call in land-based aircraft. What ship do you need?
Tap the Action Button until airstrike comes up. If it doesn’t come up, there are no aircraft in the area.
Then select a target, set the attack direction and position using the sliders and hit Launch.
Killerfish games could you please add spotter planes on battleships and cruisers?
Functionally, this exists. In BotA, the ability to detect enemy ships is increased for ships with spotter aircraft.
Killerfish Games?
I have three questions.
1. I played the fifth mission (I think) of the campaign with Germany: Leberecht Maas vs Codrington, Acasta and a Large Freighter. The HMS Codrington fired three torpedos on the Leberecht Maas. But in this moment the Codrington was behind the Large Freighter. And the torpedos just passes through the merchant. Is this not a little bit unlogical?
2. If you select the torpedoes you can set a red line, the way the torpedos will follow. And if you select the direction for a torpedo a green line appears and one torpedo is subtracted from the total of torpedos you can use, right? But sometimes one torpedos is subtracted but the green line doesn’t appear. Then you’re out of torpedos (for that turn) but you ship doesn’t fire a torpedo. Is that a bug?
3. I think the enemy shoots too good. I need sometimes ten or more salves before hitting an enemy ship, the enemy hits me during the third salve. Can you use any radar like in Pacific Fleet?
~Graustreif
1. Torpedoes (and shells) can pass through friendly ships as there is no friendly fire.
2. Bug. Usually caused if you are moving the red line as you touch the button to set the green line.
3. Ten salvos to hit is a lot. You should be hitting by 3rd, 4th at the latest. Are you targeting ships and using the Target Solution data as an initial estimate? See Options/Help Help section on Gunnery.
1. Ah, ok.
2. Ok… So must be that fixed? Or was that a mistake by me?
3. Ah, ok, I read the Help section gunnery. Now I understand it, I hit a British freighter after the first salve. /o/
Thank you!
2) Both 🙂
3) Excellent, good hunting!
Thanks! 😀
I have a question/an idea. :’D
What about adding morals? For Germany and England? That this morals can increase and decrease? For example if you sink two big enemy battleships, the enemy’s morals decrease and the own morals increase? And if morals are low, the possibility then will be higher that this state surrenders? What do you think? (:
Are you referring to morale? That is kind of built into the AI such that Germany is very protective of their limited number of ships.
Where can i comment game experience, bugs etc? I remember i posted something, but my post has disappeared…(((
Go to support and contact us via there.
The game says the Revenge class battleships have sonar according to their subsystems page. I don’t believe this is correct. I encountered this when using a submarine.
I’m experience issues where bombs dropped by Lancasters and glide bombs sometimes don’t go off when they hit a ship. They leave a hole but beyond that, there is no explosion. I’ve encountered entire strikes with dud bombs/glide bombs.
I see there a Barracuda aircraft according to the air attacks video. Is it similar to how Lancasters appear, by luck/chance?
Yup Revenge shouldn’t have sonar.
Not seen glide bombs or grand slams not explode before. Do you have Dud weapons on, that would make them duds 4% of the time?
No, barracuda are an upgrade to swordfish bombers later in a Battle of the Atlantic game.
Yup, I do have that on.
Thanks
I am stuck on week 0.5 October 1940. It keeps says the Royal Navy dominates the Atlantic and won’t let me move on to the next turn.. Any help would be appreciated
That is the end of the campaign based on the manual section 2.3.2.
We are examining letting the game continue past the campaign end-point in a future update.
is there any workaround to force android navigation bar off so that I can play true full screen? Am i the only one who has this problem?
Hi,there
I wanted to ask you a few questions
1.When will the next update brought?
2.Can you add more ships…?
3.Why is it laggy on IPad Mini?
Thanks,just that
Why is it laggy when I shoot the shells?
Thanks
I just got Frix X
Killerfish Games, I only got two stars in Atlantic Fleet mission 50.
3 is required to complete the campaign.
Really?
Yup, really 🙂
What if we have 3 stars in mission 50, but we have only 1 or 2 in previous levels, will the Lion and H class still be unlocked?
3 Stars on level 50 = WIN. Doesn’t matter what you earned on the previous levels.
can you add hms eagle????!!!!
Bugs/Issues
It says Elbing class torpedo boats have sonar in their subsystems, but this is incorrect.
Squids don’t seem to work against submarines.
The Scharnhorst class battleships don’t have their secondary weapons listed in their ship information or subsystems.
I don’t think underwater damage is being modeled on some ships such as KGV, Lion and Renown class ships.
German torpedo bombers can fly through Allied warships and drop torpedoes on their decks. I tried this against a ship with weak AA armament. In general, I don’t think planes can fly through ships.
AI can conduct flight operations with carriers even though flight deck is damaged or destroyed. If my carriers have planes on the deck and the deck gets destroyed/damaged, I found I can still launch aircraft as well. I don’t think this should be possible.
I totally agree with you about enemy flight decks operating when damaged or destroyed!!! I just close the game and restart if I don’t have a CA or bigger when starting the battle against a CV. I put 50-80 shells in a CV from 8″ guns and had it blazing and listing at 5 kn only to be killed by its torpedo bombers. If the AI wants to cheat… well two can play that game 😉
1) Interesting, will research it and maybe change it along with ability for Elbing class to drop depth charges.
2) Bug. Fixed next update.
3) Bug. Fixed next update.
4) Will look into it.
5) Will look into it.
6) Bug. Fixed next update.
I won the Battle of the Atlantic as Germany. I get a notice that I have won and unlocked the H-39 Battleship..I have looked in the shipyard and can’t seem to find it.. Do I need to start a new Battle of the Atlantic?
Yes you need to start a new BotA. However we’ve been getting some reports that this is not working with the latest version 1.08. Please let us know.
I just won the BotA as the Germans and it too has said I unlocked the H-39 battleship but I can’t find it even after starting a new BotA
It is a bug in version 1.08. Getting fixed next update.
We think your previous victory should still count and the H39 should be available without re-doing a BotA.
It just needs shore bombardment
It just needs shore bombardment
And can you make Indian fleet that would have Americans Japanese and British also could you add the use Texas battleship
I actually miss the time when we had to wait for the game to be released.
indeed…
Once we announce our next game the waiting can start again 🙂
I hope it’s on ps4 🙂
Sorry for the longer post, but I’ve got more things to discuss. First of all I’d like to point on one thing, that happened to me several times. During last engagement, an L.M class destroyer equipped with 4.9″ guns has hit my Scharnhorst class battleship’s main turret protected with 14″ armor. As the shell hit the turret, it has put it out of order (compartnent highlighted in red). So I was quite surprised how can a 4.9″ shell be capable of penetrating 14″ armor and even putting the compartment out of order… Next, the in-game manual says, that even in standard campaign mode, I should be able to have air support when near the air cover zone while playing on the German side. Well, I’ve already won the entire simplyfied campaign (unlocking the H-39 class battleships) and I didn’t get any Land-based aircraft at all, even when striking in German home waters and at the noon…
Besides, the game is incredibly perfect, and the best Ww2 naval simulator for Android, I’ve ever played. I was very surprised and excited about The Pacific Fleet, but the Atlantic Fleet has far exceeded my expectations for a mobile game 🙂
I would maybe suggest adding more aircrafts and ships, as I consider Germans a little bit disabled… Maybe it would be nice to add a single historical mission, where U-47 historically sunk the HMS Ark Royal in british naval base Scapa Flow…
I would also like to see german XXI class submarine in the game in future, and adding a few aircrafts, like He-111, Bf-109, Ju 290 or Fw-58, Ju 88 / 188, He 219 and Me 210, or maybe the late war Me-262 or even Ho 229 won’t be bad 😀
I would maybe also suggest adding a glide bomb Blohm & Voss Bv 246, otherwise known as “Hagelkorn”.
I would also like to ask, whether we can expect The Italian Royal navy battleships and aircraft carriers, along with aircrafts to be added in a game in the future… And how about German aircraft carriers Graf Zeppelin and Seydlitz? It wouldn’t be bad if Germans had some aircraft carriers as well…
At the end, I noticed, that for Battle of the Atlantic, there’s a special option called “Sunk ships recycled by enemy”, what exactly does this option do?
The last request would be adding the H-45 “Fűhrer” or at least the H-44 “Alemania” battleship as a special unlockable.
By the way, outsanding job guys 😉
(v1.08)
Shell vs turret: can happen. Had the turret already been hit by other shells?
Air Strikes: might be a bug.
We’d love to add more ships/planes, but they take a long time to create.
Recycle option lets the AI resurrect a sunk ship and add it back into service.
Yes, the turret has received several hits during the previous turns. However, all the hits were only from the same ship as the enemy had no more heavy surface vessels or any vessels at all in the combat area.
Probably the biggest reason, why I mentioned this was that for expample in the Pacific Fleet during the shore bombardment, if attacking the bunker, you had to attack it with appropriate guns, so for examlpe, if you were attacking the bunker protected with 10″ armor, then you had to use guns at least equal or bigger than 10″ in order to pierce the armor. Otherwise the bunker just simply withstood the attack without affecting the structure, and even aircraft-dropped bombs were unseless for this purpose. Unless you had purchased anything else except the submarine, like the A-bomb or additional ships. So that’s why I was unsatisfied with that.
Hopefully, it was only a bug.
Oh well, i understand. In thah case, I wish you good luck and smooth progress creating additional ships / aircraft. I’m looking forward to all the new stuff.
Thanks, I’ve been recently told, what is that feature, but altough I really appreciate your help and thanks for the reply.
Maybe I would add one more thing. I’ve played the entire Battle of The Atlantic campaign and I noticed that sometimes, I encountered the destroyer with the same name, as the one I’ve already sunk previously (DD Gurkha) . And I’m sure that the option “Sunk ships recycled by enemy” was not marked. I know that this option’s main purpose is to prevent encountering the same ship more than one time, so when you sink the Bismarck for exapmle, it won’t appear anymore in the certain Battle of The Atlantic Campaign. But is this related only to the heavy surface ships or for all? Because, I know, that it was only a destroyer and I may have encountered vast number of other destroyers as well but if this option’s aim is to avoid meeting ANY ship more than once, I think that the destroyers or submarines shouldn’t be an exception.
Thanks alot for help and for reply.
No worries. Also we tweaked turrets not to get knocked out by non-penetrating hits in the next update.
For the recycled units: we think there might be a very subtle bug that allows enemy ships to come back. DD Gurkha always seems to pop up so we’re looking into it. Hard one to track down though.
Ah found it!
HMS Gurkha was a Tribal Class DD sunk by air attack off Norway in 1940. A L Class DD being built (HMS Larne) was then renamed to HMS Gurkha. So there’s two Gurkhas about, one a Tribal and one a L Class Destroyer.
Okay thanks alot. I’m looking forward to the new update. Oh I see. Alright then. I’m not sure whether I didn’t meet DD Gurkha even more than twice, but probably it was only two times. Hopefully, there will be some new aircraft or ships, especially for the Germans in the next update. Good luck and thanks for the reply.
Killerfish Games, Apple just announced a new iPad. It’s called “iPad Pro”, and it has a 12.9 inch screen. Would you mind updating Atlantic Fleet to stretch throughout the whole screen, when it becomes available in November?
Interesting. Thankfully we designed Atlantic Fleet such that it auto-sizes the screen to fit various device screen aspect ratios.
At 2732×2048 (4:3 aspect ratio) the iPad Pro should work just fine.
killerfish what is the minimum resolution supported by your game?
It is dependent on the device.
960×640 is the lowest resolution supported on iOS devices.

This game is fantastic! The only thing I can ask for is more ships and aircraft! Maybe more locations, the Med was a major theater as well! I am at level 50 in the UK campaign and I am getting my butt kicked. Best I have done so far is sank every ship save the Tirpitz using only subs. Carriers are sitting ducks out here. Why only a three ship maximum? Might be nice to deploy more, have a true mixed fleet. Maybe base the size of your fleet on how far and how many stars gained during campaign? I cannot wait to see what you guys come up with next! I would love to see a Second Battle of the Atlantic set in the Cold War!
We felt that more than 3 ships in campaign battles would just be too easy.
I beat the campaign mode and am playing the Battle of the Atlantic as Germany. I am having a grand old time! Twice I sank a British battleship by getting my destroyers in close and unleashing a full salvo of torpedos (HMS Valiant and HMS Queen Elizabeth to Max Shultz and Z21, respectively). Now, if I lose a ship I can’t get it back but so far I have sank HMS Fearless at least four time, same for HMS Guhrka, HMS Hero, and others. Does the computer get to recycle ships or is there a setting I am missing to prevent this? I have sank 200 Royal Navy warships for a total of 977,635 tons. Is the computer recycling losses?
There is a recycle ships setting that you can turn off
Although there is like 2-3 Gurkhas in the Royal Navy,a Tribal and a G class.maybe one more
The Gurkhas are correct.
One was a Tribal which was sunk and the other was an L Class which was renamed to Ghurka after the loss of the first one.
This is kinda funny….
I once encountered Both Gurkhas at the Same time with some U-Boats
What a Coincidence XD
There is an option which allows the AI to use recycled ships.
Check to see if it is on in the options page. If not, might be a bug and email a screenshot of your ships sunk list.
