The incredibly stupid AI is also a big problem since it is hard to overlook the mechanical flaws when the gameplay is only moderately engaging. We put our hopes on the combined multiplayer with Silent Hunter II, since both titles make decent front-ends for exciting online battles.

Mediocre graphics, poor design choices, and unfinished features sink what could otherwise have been a fine game. There may be a lot of fun to be had with Destroyer Command , but not in its current state. 0 BACK TO THE REVIEW SUMMARY Reviewer: Mark H.
