1. Information about the game
Thank you for purchasing our game!
Pacific Storm is a game about the war in the Pacific between the U.S. and Japan. It has the elements of a global strategy, tactical game and an arcade aircraft simulator. Playing either for the United States or Imperial Japan, you walk through a dramatic sequence of large-scale naval and air military operations. The game covers the time from 1940 to 1948. As you play, you can develop new technologies, build and deploy new weapon systems and even change history. Thanks to a smooth and seamless combination of strategy, tactics and simulator, you are completely free to take whatever strategic or tactical decisions you consider best or abandon for a time all strategy and tactics and inhabit any of your units so as to take part in the fighting personally. Pacific Storm’s gameplay combines exceptional depth and scale of the strategic mode, superior authenticity of the tactical mode and exciting dynamics of the simulator.
Main Features of the Game:
– Three genres organically combined into one coherent whole in one game: strategy, tactics and aircraft simulator;
– Large-scale naval and air operations on the global map of the Pacific including Australia, North America, Oceania and part of India from 1940-1948;
– Capability to change history as the global campaign develops;
– Strategic Historical Campaign (composition of forces in the game start is close to historical) and Free Campaign (composition of forces is simplified) are available;
– Loading from strategic to tactical level (and back) keeping all battle parameters: units’ number and their ammunition and characteristics, time of day, weather conditions;
– Large selection of historical tactical and simulator missions with the possibility to play on the side of the Japanese and the Americans;
– Tactical battle deployment mode in which one can create any battle on one of the 40 tactical Pacific maps and choose weather conditions and time of day as well as units and ammunition;
– Stunning 3D graphics: 24 ship types, 36 aircraft types, 20 guided rockets and bombs and many other units. Beautiful Pacific environments and terrains (up to 2000 square miles). Realistic visual effects including nuclear explosion.
-dditional Features of the Game:
– Weather (fog, wind, rain) impact in the strategic mode;
– Ability to develop new technologies from increasing the power rating of aircraft engines to guided missiles technology, biological and nuclear weapons;
– Intuitive game control in the strategic mode allowing effective base management, mission planning and supply management;
– Several time control options (slow motion, acceleration, controlled pause);
– Ability to establish new naval bases in the course of the game;
– Reconnaissance and surveillance using aircraft, ships and radar systems;
Your fleet in Pacific Storm includes battleships, aircraft carriers, destroyers, cruisers, missile cruisers, submarines and torpedo boats as well as tankers and transports. The aerial war is conducted using fighters (at first piston-powered and at later stages jet fighters), attack aircraft, torpedo bombers and strategic bombers. There are 86 types of units, all carefully modeled from WWII-era aircraft and ships, in the game. Also, you can develop new technologies and create new weapons systems, which may almost instantly overturn the global balance of power. About 100 technological improvements (upgrades) enhancing combat effectiveness of warships and military aircraft are available. In addition to the strategic mode with its 127 different Pacific zones and 40 naval bases, you can play 20 historical battles, including the Battle of Midway, the attack on the Japanese admiral Yamamoto’s plane and the battle for Guadalcanal.
Pacific Storm is all about battleships and aircraft carriers – the giants of naval warfare during WWII – about captains and admirals, as well as rank-and-file soldiers and sailors of the two great military powers locked in a life-and-death conflict. In Pacific Storm you can become the Commander-in-Chief responsible for the lives of thousands of servicemen and the destiny of his country; or the commanding officer of a small squadron; or even an ordinary military pilot fighting in the sky over the Pacific. And, gradually, as you play, from all these separate bits and pieces will emerge one impressive picture of the great and fierce battles fought in the Pacific during WWII.
