I've been playing Harpoon since it was on 5 1/4 inch floppies. I tried to resurrect an old disk a couple of weeks ago, but it wouldn't run on XP at all. So, I came here in search of answers, and a few days later HCCE was released.

Love it. It's the same old game, only without all the bugs that were introduced by years of indifferent caretaker owners gone. Matrix got this one right.

I tried H2 when it first came out. I found it completely unplayable.

Well,i have been playing around with the Walkthrough scenario.I find the actual Navigation aspects of the game a doddle to get to grips with,piece of cake getting from A to B.I did find a Nanchuka by Sosus then promptly lost contact.So i restarted the scenario as i was sure i was in the wrong area.Well despite useing passiva and active means i found bugger all!So next it tried a different scenario,right off from the start i had Choppers coming out of the wood work,more soviet subs than you could poke a stick at and Surface Units out go give me heart failure!!Unfortunatly,as i turned one fleet to interept and launch my Aircraft,the game decided to give up the ghost with a "dear Bill" message.Seeing as it was 0245 hrs i thought i had best go to bed!There is a LOT more to this game than you first see.i cant wait till i get my physical copy of the manual!So after about 40 mins of playing,i can say i am now addicted!!!!!
