Does Cold Waters work well on the Deck?

I've been hoping that the new Sea Power: Naval Combat in the Missile Age will work well on the Deck in a year or so, and was planning to stick to Dangerous Waters until then.

My P-3 (maritime patrol aircraft) bindings are shared on the community bindings already!

DW runs incredibly efficiently. The graphics look like 1999 anyways, so I just dial the TDP all the way down to 3 W and set FPS to 20. Perfect game when the battery is low!. I haven't modded it at all, I actually like the retro vibe (and the incredible sonar simulation).

Yeah no issues, dot mod (the mod ovehaul) works fine too.

"DW runs incredibly efficiently"

Honestly that is a such a huge asset, if you think about it almost every game studio with significant investment and capital tied up in it is categorically incapabele of ever creating similar 3d games that are as efficient as that again.

Case in point Armored Brigade 2's big new thing over Armored Brigade is that it has 3d graphics..but why? The only reason I can find is it looks cooler, which is really frustrating for the performance hit and for soaking up a major share of development time

I'll have to check out the sonar aspect of DW that sounds dope.
