What's New in Boat Sim Elite

1.08

April 11, 2016

This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included. Adds requested feature, a new setting for max wave height (extreme waves on/off). Waves will only be (randomly) huge if enabled from the options page (menu/options). If deselected waves will vary but will stay relatively calm. Actual wave height is random, but this will enhance the experience depending on preference, and sets max wave height limit. Wish to support development? Check out our NEW app - Boat Sim Pro - this has all new boats, new realistic water and geographical features for navigating, as well as music, and even a new binocular view! New improved user interface and experience. We'll work to add these features to our other titles. We appreciate your feedback on our forum, on our improved website.

I don’t mean to be rude but I really hate the camera angles there is no 3rd person free view and there is not much to do it gets boring fast I wasted $2 for this 😡☹️ and update the game it’s crap and there is only three ships I understand it’s two years old but it’s not worth the money

Response from developer

Sorry it wasn't for you, for ship enthusiasts an open sim can be very enjoyable, and in this app you can walk around the ships while also commanded them around various islands. A brand new version is in the works and we appreciate your feedback.

Very realistic except for one thing

So, I love this sim, and it is fun to go and pretend to explore and stuff, but the least realistic thing I can think of is when I hit things accidentally, there is no apprehend damage. If you were it hit a rock at 25 knots then there would be a gash in the side of the boat, resulting in a sinking boat. I wish there was sinking, but I understand if Gary can't add it or won't. The point of the isn't to sink, but for a more realistic game, sinking is a big thing to add. Have a good day!

Response from developer

Great suggestions and feedback, thank-you. Due to software changes this title may not see further changes, however a new version built from scratch is about to be 'launched.' Appreciate your suggestions and please let me know of any changes or enhancements you'd like to see including the style of docks etc. I don't think underwater effects would be added, however a damage system can definitely be added, perhaps leading to sinking seen first from the ship, then an external view. Suggestions can be added on the website.

Great game but...

I really like this games because it’s the only boat games where you can walk around... but can you please add some more ships I know it’s pretty hard to make a game and all but there is only 3 ships can you at least make a 5 or 6 then you would have a lot of options to chose from. And agin this is a great games and there’s a lot of good things... I also think you could add a storm mode where there is a tsunami to survive. That’s it that’s really all i would like to see and also thanks for lowering the price!
