Posted March 13, 2014 Hopefully they've finally implemented "Friend Battles". Sucks that they never put it in the game first time around, kind of an obvious thing really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 3, 2014 It's great they're updating this so much, and it is good. But STILL no friends online play is just so ridiculous... Nintendo are almost a parody of themseleves sometimes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2014 That requirement to pay two play coins to play online each time is pretty clever. It encourages people to buy the premium version, but it's not too intrusive and feels like a natural extension of the 3DS' functionality. Anywho, I think the release of ver 2.0 is a perfect hallmark for me to finally get stuck into this game, now that I can finally break my duck on Wii U and 3DS games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I easily wank enough to earn 100+ coins per day but Nintendo set another arbitrary limit. Rejig the whole thing, 1 coin per 500 steps but have no limit on coins.

Posted June 5, 2014 Is there any worth in getting the original Steel Diver? It seems to be going for peanuts these days but I've never tried it. I was going to resurrect the thread about the actual game but it doesn't appear to have been particularly active, even when the game came out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2014 Is there any worth in getting the original Steel Diver? It seems to be going for peanuts these days but I've never tried it. I was going to resurrect the thread about the actual game but it doesn't appear to have been particularly active, even when the game came out It's very short and very basic. It felt more like a demo or digital game rather than a retail release. I wouldn't bother with it. Then again, your gaming tastes are all over the place so you may enjoy it.

Then again, your gaming tastes are all over the place so you may enjoy it. I'm currently trying not to add any mediocrity to my collection any more so I already know that I shouldn't be interested.. yet I've always been intrigued to try it Maybe that's because part of me wants to recapture those early days of the 3DS when Pilotwings Resort was lighting up my life I should have learnt my lesson when I got Kororinpa recently when I know that I already have plenty of superior games already that I either haven't played or fully explored.. I must stay strong : peace: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2014 Version 3 coming in August Hello, I’m Takaya Imamura, the Director of Steel Diver: Sub Wars. Thank you so much for playing. We’re planning to release Version 3.0 in the future, and I’d like to take a moment to update you on what we’re working on. In Version 3.0, you can set up Internet Battles with your Friends. This means as long as you have wireless internet access, you’ll be able to battle online with Friends you have registered on your Nintendo 3DS system, any time you want. However, keep in mind that this is limited to Friends who own the Premium Version of the game. In addition, we’ll add two new stages exclusively for Local Wireless Battle to make this mode even more fun. You will be able to select these stages while playing Internet Battle with your Friends, too. We’re also working on adding subs that you can unlock by playing via local wireless a certain number of times. The number of times you’ve played on local wireless in Version 2.0 will be carried over to Version 3.0, so if you have already met the required number of Local Wireless Battles, you may be able to unlock them right after you update. Once again, please be aware that these subs will be available only for owners of the Premium Version. We're also planning to add eight new crew members, with various abilities such as launching mines while using the masker, and healing your allies. We've also made some other small tweaks. Your allies will no longer take any damage if you accidentally attack them in battle, and you can use the +Control Pad to enter messages in Morse code. The in-game shop that was previously limited to Premium Version owners will now be accessible to players using the Free Version too. In addition, we'll be reducing the number of play coins required to play Internet Battle using the Free Version from two coins to one. We're currently working hard on Version 3.0 and aiming to release it sometime in August. Thank you for your continued support of Steel Diver: Sub Wars!

Posted August 6, 2014 Version 3 is out Battle online with players on your Nintendo 3DS Friend List (Premium version only).Unlock three additional subs by playing a certain number of Local Play battles. (These submarines can be unlocked in both versions, but can only be used in the Premium version.) Two new arenas were added especially for Local Play battles: “Underwater Rings” and “Underwater Plant” (These can also be used in Friend Battles in Internet Mode). Owners of the Free version can access the submarine shop and purchase extra subs. The number of Play Coins required to play Internet Mode in the Free version has been reduced from two coins to one coin. Subs will not take damage from allied attacks. Send preset messages in Morse-Code Chat using the direction pad (Up: “THANK YOU”, Right: “GOOD”, Down: “STOP”, Left: “SORRY”) Score three times as many points for long-range hits. Torpedoes will travel at 1.25 normal speed if fired while the sub is moving forward. Eight new crew members were added. (These crew can only be used in the Premium version.) Improved stats of the Clairvoyant and the Mechanic. Some submarine stats have been fine-tuned. Other adjustments have also been made to balance the game and make for a more fun gaming experience.
