Sail simulator 4 had oppies, lasers, FDs and solings as well as volvo 60's.

It worked okay but needed alot of coordination.  You could adjust cunningham, outhaul and kicker and move the crew trim/balance.  Trying to do all this made it really realistic but not as "fun" as VS3.

What is good about the VSK series is that you can concentrate on sailing the boat and racing the boats rather than worry about moving the crew about.

Anybody else played this?

Ive played both, VSK is far better for playability etc., who needs to exactly stimulate sailing when we can go out there ourseleves?

I rthnk an olympic edition of vsk4 would be good- wide range of boats too.

ooh no i think you should have like a career mode where if u win races u win funding to upgrade ur boat eg buy new sails,  that would be soo fun

ahh yeah that would be fun!! what i dont really like with vs3 is that you are limited to what you can do really until you complete the time trial or race e.t.c.  however th sponsorship thing would make the game rarther fun

I do occasional games reviews for a games website and reviewed VSK for - http://www.adventureworld.netfirms.com/ - http://www.adventureworld.netfirms.com/

I have had the office ask the publishers about VSK 4, and the news is that currently there are no plans for VSK4, but talks will go ahead in September to discuss it.

 

Cheers
