even when you watch that video I posted you have 8 million radio messages and alerts happening at one time.

I still remember one mission where I had a carrier battle group and I had to escort it through a deep water strait and the only enemy was a Soviet Cruise Missile firing sub I think it was an Oscar. Anyways, the damn thing rippled off 10 shipwreck missiles at the heart of my formation going after my carrier. I sent a couple of helicopters out to search for the sub while I prayed that my frigates and destroyers could knock the missiles down. But and the systems AI was amazing. He dove under the layer and sprinted into the middle of my formation and fired a spread of torpedoes and badly damaged my carrier and sank a cruiser, then sprinted out and launched more missiles and instead of sprinting in to the formation he sprinted ahead, and went quiet under the layer and waited for my formation to come to him because I forgot to zig zag. Then he crippled my carrier and sank a destoyer before I got him.

All told the Soviets traded one missile boat for a cruiser a couple of destroyers and badly damaging a nuclear powered carrier to the point where I couldn't get enough speed to launch fighters safely for a strike on a Russian base.

I think I need to order the game off of Steam.
