Played it in VR. Its surreal. I just wish you could go below deck as she sinks, but that's what I bought titanic honor and glory for! Forgot to mention, i accidentally spawned in the water just as the funnel came down right on top of me, the first time I've ever had to close my eyes in a VR experience it was that horrific.
J D tbh I think the 10 years is a little long but it’s kinda justified by the fact they’re doing so much research and visiting so many places to get this both as historically accurate as they possibly can while being entertaining with the missions and all that. They’re not a huge massive company making it either. Have you ever seen yandere simulator? Now that game is and it’s programmer are an absolute joke 🥴 I’m not even too interested in that game but I’ve seen a few videos about it over the years and it’s absolutely ridiculous.
To everyone viewing this extraordinary creation, you are casting your gaze on a masterpiece. The exquisite colours, phenomenal attention to detail, vividness, sounds, timing and elegance are the equivalent of a digital Renoir or Monet. What Titanic: Honor and Glory have done defies words. This is the most incredible recreation of a maritime tragedy forgotten for so long. You have not only brought HMHS Britannic back to life, but also those who built, sailed aboard and sank with her. From the rivets on the davits, to the detail on the steam winches, ropes, hospital beds, rust marks, portholes, cables lowering the lifeboats, smoke, wood planking, ventilators, ladders, instruments on the bridge, signage, and even the weathering on the masts and funnels, and views inside the windows and portholes, your meticulousness is beyond impeccable. Thank you all so much for your breathtaking work.
Everyone moaning about the sea texture like they're a AAA studio. 😂 Fantastic work guys, I will definitely be purchasing. You can tell a lot of love and research went into this.
Wow. I suffer from phobia of deep sea and big objects floating in water or visible underwater, and approaching the propeller ina boat gave me some serious goosebumps. Well done!
I remember watching the Titanic movie as a kid and being creeped out every time the propellers showed up while the ship was sinking, and knowing that people who sailed on her sister ship were KILLED by those propellers... shivers.
Man, your ocean needs a ton of work. But I can't blame you entirely. Oceans are hard. That lifeboat pan around 10:36 actually made my jaw drop and all the little mechanical animations and texturing throughout... Perfectly gorgeous works of art.
Dude the amount of people dismissing your teams work is appalling. This is the most detailed and accurate sinking of both the Britannic and Titanic that historians will be using for years to come.
People just like having something to criticise, makes them feel intellectually superior. It's crazy how little patience people have, especially on the TitanicHG subreddit.
More always wants more: guys I really need an animation flying down from the boat deck through the reciprocating engine casing to the engine rooms to watch the engines throbbing away! Will buy this later today!
I’m hoping for Honor and Glory you can bring onboard somebody with experience in animation. The technical aspects of the ship are absolutely stunning. From a critical standpoint, the only thing that needs work is the “physics” elements. The water, the ropes snapping, things like this. I think an animator joining the team would remedy these problems. An absolute stunning piece of work. Keep it up!
survive the titanic, survive the sinking of the Britannic, and survive the lifeboat getting shredded by the propellor, don't think i would ever get in a boat ever again after that.
She remained stoic publicly but her autobiography relays the horror of her experiences. She could not swim. She never reported her fractured skull, she only tended the wounded. A remarkable life. Charles Lightoller survived Titanic, a German zeppelin attack and later sailed his personal boat to Dunkirk and saved 127 British servicemen. A life of absurdly dignified and heroic service on both parts.
@Bryn Essery You're looking hard for something to take offense to. I replied to a comment about Constance Violet Jessop whose autobiography I adore. Mentioned Charles Lighttoller because like Jessop he had crazy close calls but kept on sailing. Do you really believe that if I had stated his service record in admiration I should be scorned for using the wrong pronoun? I didn't but where is your mind and heart, man?
I was always fascinated by this ship and her design. I really prefer the enclosed after well deck in particular as i think this balanced the profile much better for the Class.
@@gabrielalvarado7849 I know but ships are beautiful when they were converted into a hospital ship. Today, I expect them to be coloured white and red just like red-cross/red-crescent movement if they were converted.
Bought this game and streamed it for my friends to watch, relaying all the information I learned from these videos. Amazing project and I'm proud to support it!
If you pause the video and look to the right of 52:24, there is a lifeboat avoided of anyone, but it has moving oars in it. It is a hilarious sight to behold when you see it!
Because Britannic was rushed to be completed it was missing 3 of the large gantry cranes that originally would have held all of the extra lifeboats. So to compensate they just used a bunch of Welin davits like the Titanic and Olympic did. Notice near the bridge there is a crane on the starboard side but not the port side. If you explore the RMS Britannic in game you'll find that the boat deck doesn't look nearly as cluttered as the HMHS version because all of the lifeboats are stacked under the cranes.
It's funny how we originally thought Britannic and Titanic sank completely differently but as we slowly piece the puzzles together, the resulting animations reveal they actually sank very similarly - down by the bow with a significant list to port, stern rising out of the water. The main difference was that Britannic kept sailing forward and some of the portholes were open causing the ship to sink in a third of the time. This would explain the efficiency of the evacuation of Britannic versus Titanic, no doubt the whole crew would have read extensively on that sinking and would've anticipated certain events before they happened, Bartlett in particular was probably so confident because of this foreknowledge of similar events, if only the watertight doors had closed properly
It is but please remember that this game was a side project. The Titanic game is having a separate studio making historical characters (NPC) for the game while Britannic was made in-house with the goal to share the virtual sinking experience rather than the full historical event. Maybe if successful, they can release a remake with NPC in it.
Massive respect for everything you've done so far. I'm wondering - have you thought of adding a "what if" scenario for both Titanic and Britannic projects where neither ship sinks? Titanic sailing two knots slower and having only 3 or 4 compartments flooded, and Britannic sailing with watertight doors closed at the time of the explosion?
@@Leo-ip3yx It could be a big contribution to the genre of alternative history fiction. Titanic and Britannic in New York. White Star Line separate from Cunard to this day. Oceanic III versus Queen Mary. Things like that. I'd LOVE too see it made, and even as a separate DLC, I'd pay good price.
AMAZING! I love this so much! I never knew it only took 15 minutes to evacuate all those people! This was so interesting thank you THG and the whole team! :)
18:22 that is soo scary imagine your on a life boat and you just see the propellers coming and there’s nothing you can do about it Also 21:25 is similar
@@EroticOnion23the ship was moving forward and turning The propeller also was creating a whirlpool affect the way it was going and they couldn’t see it until it was to late
This was a surreal experience. Thank you guys. I hope that the money will aid to develop the main Titanic Game. Is so weird, i walk in the ship like i knew every stair and passage.
They thought they were sneaky with this one, but the sound of the third funnel ripping itself from its base was the same exact sound used in the Britannic film. The sound can be heard briefly before the ship keels over.
Will be watching gameplay/ walk through do to the fact don’t have a working pc and steam isn’t on Xbox otherwise I would buy it form you guys then keep up the great work
The detail in this video is absolutely insane!! I know that one has already been done, but will there be an updated with of the Titanic sinking in real time?
Thank you guys for bringing this to Mac as well. I hope to see Titanic Honor & Glory done the same. Keep up the good work it’s always been mind blowing.
This is a good point. But I always thought it just broke off later because of the unsupported weight of the bow, as she is lying on her side. If you lay the ship on its side notice the bow is just kind of hanging there.
In freemode, sometimes I get into the ship of beneath the water. Some kind of unwanted "noclip" but that's cool because precisely it's something I'd like. Even though here being a bug, there's nothing in the sea or in the hull (just some blurry textures) ^^ You did a great job. Can't wait for Titanic.
I don't know, but the original video seems more accurate of the actual sinking. Still, it's sad Britannic went down, after the safety improvements she and Olympic took from their sister Titanic when she sank. The mine destroyed her bad. At least her wreck is still in great shape in relatively shallow waters despite the broken bow.
This virtual museum-experience will allow users to learn first hand about the HMHS Britannic, the ill fated sister of the infamous RMS Titanic. Explore the hospital ship that she was in the First World War, unveil the ocean liner she was designed to be, and relive her sinking after striking a mine in the Mediterranean in this meticulously researched and extravagantly detailed program. Available for PC, PC-VR, and Mac. What you see in this video is recorded straight from Britannic POTM - no sound effects have been added, the footage has not been enhance. These are pre-animated camera's that we've set up, but in Britannic POTM, you will have the option for your own free-camera mode to explore the sinking.
The construction of the Britannic was running behind so to make up for it they didn’t install that gantry davit (they would’ve installed it after the war before she went to commercial service)
To add on to Tyler’s answer, that’s also the reason only the standard Welin davits were installed on the poop deck. The intended gantries would’ve taken longer to install but since the Royal Navy needed her quickly those were placed there so they could have at least some means of evac on that deck. They likely would’ve been swapped out had she gotten through the war.

You know, as terrible as the sinking was, it was lucky that the Britannic didn’t strike the mine returning from Greece. Could you imagine this situation but with 1,000 plus wounded soldiers onboard? Would’ve made the Titanic look like a picnic.
Hopefully in a future update, I can access the RMS grand staircase section, I get a repeatable crash to my desktop EVERY time I try to load that. Other than that, everything else works so far. The sinking part is like being a time traveler where you know all to well the outcome.
Dang hospital staff leaving the portholes open. How come Bartlett didn’t reverse the port screw? And how come he didn’t just turn on the starboard propeller when they overshot Kea?
Reversing the port prop will only make it go back on its original course, turning the starboard propeller will probably just tip the ship and sank like the britannic movie
I’m guessing it might be too much to hope that this comes out on console someday. Also it would be badass if they add the ability to explore the wreck like the Titanic vr game
I always wondered since the only time they opened the watertight doors was during shift change,and that unfortunately happened to be when they struck the mine. What if they didn't hit the mine during shift change and all the watertight doors were closed, would the ship have sank? If it was doomed to sink no matter what even with the watertight doors closed how much longer could this ship have lasted. I see they put in here that if the watertight doors did close or were closed Captain Bartlett may have been able to reach the island of Kea. I've always wondered about those things... Anyways, Amazing video as always You guys did an awesome job! I'm bummed I can't play this on Steam because I haven't had a computer for a long time . I just always use my phone or my PS4 and XBOX..
I'm not sure if she would have been unquestionably the grandest ship afloat considering that her competition included Aquitania, Imperator, Vaterland and Bismarck, which were already built or being built.. But that would have been a close contest certainly. Britannic would have been my favourite that's for sure 😉.
you might wan't to check this out! The fire alarm signal onboard ship is sounded as the continuous ringing of ship's electrical bell or continuous sounding of ship's horn. ... Once the master decides for the dismissal of the crew from fire stations, the general alarm will be sounded three times followed by three short blasts of the ship's whistle. in the game you blow her wistle 4 time's but no need to change just making sure you know! :)
Dear developers, thank you for the game! Dear developers, we would really like to: - so that we can use the elevators (move between decks) - so that we can freely move between locations (now only through the menu) - sinking mode with interiors The material of the steel hull of the liner is just perfect! The reflections and roughness of the case are exactly the same as in real historical photos. I've reviewed hundreds of photos, so I know what I'm talking about.
It's crazy how Violet Jessop was on all 3 ships. She was on Olympic when it collided with another ship. She was on the Titanic when it sank, as well as the Britannic when it sank. She's either incredibly luck or unluck depending on how you view it.
Reunite The British Empire there are probably much crazier stories of people making a career of surviving shipwrecks out there that we don’t know about
I cannot recommend this software ENOUGH (I do not want to denigrate it by calling it a "game"), if anybody is an enthusiast of the great liners. I have already made MY purchase before I even FINISHED this video. When you hear people talking about the accuracy and love the creators have dedicated to this and the TITANIC software coming in time, I stress that this is WELL worth the price at ANY cost. I don't spend at ALL on "games" (sorry, I know I said I wouldn't use that term, but I couldn't think of any other), and I didn't HESITATE to buy this. Because I KNOW how authentic and a labor of love this is. PLEASE support these fine creators and get yourself this software - they deserve it all. You will be supporting a VERY worthy development and will NOT be disappointed. I'm a 40+ year TITANIC Historian, and I have been STUNNED by its' quality. I will be purchasing the TITANIC: HONOR AND GLORY software as WELL when it comes out. I personally can't WAIT to see that one in its' completed form.
2D is cool. VR is amaizing! See how the bow plunges below the water. The water comming up the stairs and you trying to escape to the stern while funnels are falling on your head. This is the future of VR where it has the most potential.
The Titanic and Britannic sank in a very similar and almost identical way, but the similarities end with the Titanic breaking in half. It just amazes me that the Britannic only took just about an hour to fully sink, while her sister Titanic is smaller than her, it took her 2 hours and 40 minutes! The main reason why was that Titanic’s crew was attempting to slow down the ship’s sinking, while Britannic’s crew all got onto lifeboats and fled the ship, the only person that was really trying to save the ship was Captain Bartlett and small amount of Officers.
I think the initial collision/explosion on the ships would have a huge impact on the speeds of their sinking too. If the mine was powerful enough to snap the cabling for the Marconi wires and cause the watertight doors to fail, then the hole below the waterline on the Britannic must have been huge in comparison to the openings made by the iceberg on the Titanic.
Amanda Cox Well, the explosion was big against Britannic’s hull, but the iceberg caused gashes from the very front of the hull to just below the bridge of Titanic.
@@dawson9507 Also true. It's puzzling, especially since the bulkheads on Britannic were significantly higher than Titanic's and theoretically should have slowed down the flooding (if only the watertight doors and portholes weren't open). I guess there's a whole myriad of reasons why Britannic sank more quickly, some of which we may never know. At least the water was warmer!
Cool experience. It was creepy as the final plunge began! But guys... you have to work on your water. Those waves look annoying. You can do better. It looks cheap and doesnt fit the rest of this project. Price is also okay - hope it helps to get titanic finished soon :)
They need someone specifically to work on the water physics- I don't believe that they have anyone to do it so they just use the same water program as the one on the Titanic

@@Leo-ip3yx It could be a big contribution to the genre of alternative history fiction. Titanic and Britannic in New York. White Star Line separate from Cunard to this day. Oceanic III versus Queen Mary. Things like that. I'd LOVE too see it made, and even as a separate DLC, I'd pay good price.
I have this game, i recommend it whole heartedly
Britannic is so underrated
Specially its original RMS plan version which it was suppost to be in the first place
Ikr. That's why it's my fav ship
more like people don’t know about it
😢😢😢
Its my fav, i even made a moc with the lego titanic!
Finally! Excellent work to all the good people who make these. Visualizing history and doing a good job of it! Thanks again!
AMAZING! I love this so much! I never knew it only took 15 minutes to evacuate all those people! This was so interesting thank you THG and the whole team! :)
18:22 that is soo scary imagine your on a life boat and you just see the propellers coming and there’s nothing you can do about it
Also 21:25 is similar
I audibly winced when the first boat got shredded. Extremely suspenseful.
Can you jump out to the side and try to swim away?...🤔
@@EroticOnion23the ship was moving forward and turning
The propeller also was creating a whirlpool affect the way it was going and they couldn’t see it until it was to late
Excellent realization...congratulations. RIP Britannic victims.
It feels like I'm actually here.. Now imagine the game in VR!!
Its much much better.
Well good thing i have vr
This is awesome. And yet no sight of Titanic yet, the Titanic Honor and Glory will probably be released when we are all dead.
real
The really tragic part is knowing that everyone who died after the initial explosion was a result of crew disobedience.
The HMHS Britannic was also a true beauty as a hospital ship ❤
This was a surreal experience. Thank you guys. I hope that the money will aid to develop the main Titanic Game. Is so weird, i walk in the ship like i knew every stair and passage.
OMG!!!!! I buying that NOW ASAP!!! Thank you so much guys! I'm putting on my VR!!! It'll be a BLAST!!!
Hopefully we get a Lusitania game, too.
Would be amazing but they said the don’t have the time right now.
Actually I just realized that they are making Lusitania’s.
Wouldn't be much of a game, Lusitania sank at incredible speed.
They thought they were sneaky with this one, but the sound of the third funnel ripping itself from its base was the same exact sound used in the Britannic film. The sound can be heard briefly before the ship keels over.
Oh yea
agreed
Britannic: the ship that never gave up
Yet fate didn't let her win
@@Just_prettywhenicry yeah, but she was a war hero, like her sister, Britannic, defender of the seas
If only it managed to beach in time
Will be watching gameplay/ walk through do to the fact don’t have a working pc and steam isn’t on Xbox otherwise I would buy it form you guys then keep up the great work
I have some on my channel already.
Console release would be amazing
Thomas John YES PLEASE!
The detail in this video is absolutely insane!! I know that one has already been done, but will there be an updated with of the Titanic sinking in real time?
Just purchased this on Steam!
Serafim Gulin how much is it
@@sparetime2475 12,94 Euro
@@sparetime2475 $14.99 in american dollars
Me porr I cant buy this 💔
Me too!
Just played this yesterday and i had a great amount of fun and really enjoyed it. Well done guys
Those Titanic survivors that passed through the propeller probably thought to themselves "Fuck. The. Sea."
Thank you guys for bringing this to Mac as well. I hope to see Titanic Honor & Glory done the same. Keep up the good work it’s always been mind blowing.
The ships from that era were so beautiful......like they had souls!
9:04 Interesting you can see there's water coming down in one of the boiler rooms.
It just hit me as to why the bow was separated from the ship and it’s because of when it was digging into the ground
This is a good point. But I always thought it just broke off later because of the unsupported weight of the bow, as she is lying on her side. If you lay the ship on its side notice the bow is just kind of hanging there.
In freemode, sometimes I get into the ship of beneath the water. Some kind of unwanted "noclip" but that's cool because precisely it's something I'd like. Even though here being a bug, there's nothing in the sea or in the hull (just some blurry textures) ^^
You did a great job. Can't wait for Titanic.
I don't know, but the original video seems more accurate of the actual sinking. Still, it's sad Britannic went down, after the safety improvements she and Olympic took from their sister Titanic when she sank. The mine destroyed her bad. At least her wreck is still in great shape in relatively shallow waters despite the broken bow.
My favorite part of the game is when the mine hits. Love how the ship rocks and creaks after the explosion.
This was fantastic !!👏👏👏
This virtual museum-experience will allow users to learn first hand about the HMHS Britannic, the ill fated sister of the infamous RMS Titanic. Explore the hospital ship that she was in the First World War, unveil the ocean liner she was designed to be, and relive her sinking after striking a mine in the Mediterranean in this meticulously researched and extravagantly detailed program. Available for PC, PC-VR, and Mac.
What you see in this video is recorded straight from Britannic POTM - no sound effects have been added, the footage has not been enhance. These are pre-animated camera's that we've set up, but in Britannic POTM, you will have the option for your own free-camera mode to explore the sinking.
Is there a reason there was a gantry davit on the starboard side of the foreword most funnel, but not the port side?
The construction of the Britannic was running behind so to make up for it they didn’t install that gantry davit (they would’ve installed it after the war before she went to commercial service)
TylerHman Ah, ok. I had a feeling that was the case. Thanks!
To add on to Tyler’s answer, that’s also the reason only the standard Welin davits were installed on the poop deck. The intended gantries would’ve taken longer to install but since the Royal Navy needed her quickly those were placed there so they could have at least some means of evac on that deck. They likely would’ve been swapped out had she gotten through the war.

What especially hurts about this whole event is that the sinking was, unlike in Titanic's case, preventable even after damage was done.
I don't think britannic's sinking was preventable, the watertight doors were jammed due to the explosion so they really couldn't do anything.
Wow! The Britannic looks amazing!
You know, as terrible as the sinking was, it was lucky that the Britannic didn’t strike the mine returning from Greece. Could you imagine this situation but with 1,000 plus wounded soldiers onboard? Would’ve made the Titanic look like a picnic.
I need to get a laptop that can run this.
Get shadow if you're in the US you can run any game with it
no, U need to buy a gaming PC, that IS meant to be played on...
No words to describe this wonder
Is this like a thriller movie for anyone else as well? 😍
There is a free movie on TH-cam called Britannic. I would recommend you watch it.
Hopefully in a future update, I can access the RMS grand staircase section, I get a repeatable crash to my desktop EVERY time I try to load that. Other than that, everything else works so far. The sinking part is like being a time traveler where you know all to well the outcome.
same....
@@Condition1 Patch last night didn't fix it. I guess an embarrassing repeatable crash isn't an issue.
Dang hospital staff leaving the portholes open.
How come Bartlett didn’t reverse the port screw?
And how come he didn’t just turn on the starboard propeller when they overshot Kea?
Reversing the port prop will only make it go back on its original course, turning the starboard propeller will probably just tip the ship and sank like the britannic movie
Simply stunning
Amazing video keep up the great work with out you we wouldn't see this!!
I’m guessing it might be too much to hope that this comes out on console someday. Also it would be badass if they add the ability to explore the wreck like the Titanic vr game
All things considered, the sinking of the Britannic is an example of an almost best case scenario for a sinking ship.
What do you think, why is there smoke coming from the first funnel all the time? Boiler rooms 5 and 6 were flooded in a few minutes
Someone should make a Britannic movie where they use this animation as a source to base the sinking off of.
I always wondered since the only time they opened the watertight doors was during shift change,and that unfortunately happened to be when they struck the mine.
What if they didn't hit the mine during shift change and all the watertight doors were closed, would the ship have sank?
If it was doomed to sink no matter what even with the watertight doors closed how much longer could this ship have lasted.
I see they put in here that if the watertight doors did close or were closed Captain Bartlett may have been able to reach the island of Kea.
I've always wondered about those things...
Anyways,
Amazing video as always
You guys did an awesome job!
I'm bummed I can't play this on Steam because I haven't had a computer for a long time . I just always use my phone or my PS4 and XBOX..
If the doors were closed properly, britannic would be DECLARED sinking, but they would may have had a better shot at beaching the doomed vessel.
But the people who start their shifts would be trapped and have no escape, they’d be doomed if they kept the watertight doors closed.
I'm not sure if she would have been unquestionably the grandest ship afloat considering that her competition included Aquitania, Imperator, Vaterland and Bismarck, which were already built or being built..
But that would have been a close contest certainly.
Britannic would have been my favourite that's for sure 😉.
you might wan't to check this out! The fire alarm signal onboard ship is sounded as the continuous ringing of ship's electrical bell or continuous sounding of ship's horn. ... Once the master decides for the dismissal of the crew from fire stations, the general alarm will be sounded three times followed by three short blasts of the ship's whistle. in the game you blow her wistle 4 time's but no need to change just making sure you know! :)
That explosion seemed so much more violent than the first animation.
Highly recommend this experience. Walking the decks at night... just wow.
Dear developers, thank you for the game! Dear developers, we would really like to:
- so that we can use the elevators (move between decks)
- so that we can freely move between locations (now only through the menu)
- sinking mode with interiors
The material of the steel hull of the liner is just perfect! The reflections and roughness of the case are exactly the same as in real historical photos. I've reviewed hundreds of photos, so I know what I'm talking about.
I don't mind sailing on Britannic, because I know old Harry is there to look after Claire while I'm away.
I understand that the 2 Titanic survivors vowed never to sail again.
It's crazy how Violet Jessop was on all 3 ships. She was on Olympic when it collided with another ship. She was on the Titanic when it sank, as well as the Britannic when it sank. She's either incredibly luck or unluck depending on how you view it.
Reunite The British Empire there are probably much crazier stories of people making a career of surviving shipwrecks out there that we don’t know about
Is it bad to watch this while I'm in a toilet
As long as you aren't at sea.
@@aliensounddigital8729 The toilet is a bad place to hear a bang and feel the room shaking
@@Sammzor imagine watching this on a ship toilet and you hear an explosion
@@Sammzor The toilet is an even *worst* place to be if you have to do a no.2 inside a ship that's rapidly sinking.
I am as well
18:28 lil heart attack for da bois 🙌🙌
Looking forward to spammals playing this 😁
@John Arat yes. im looking forward to seeing what he thinks
@@spyrosbreath95 and he hasnt played yet. sad. either he forgot about the game. or he is ignoring the game and their products due to recent drama
105th anniversary of the sinking! RIP those lost that day. RIP HMHS BRITANNIC
Today is the 105th Anniversary of the Sinking of Britannic. RIP Britannic and all those who perished on her.
I cannot recommend this software ENOUGH (I do not want to denigrate it by calling it a "game"), if anybody is an enthusiast of the great liners. I have already made MY purchase before I even FINISHED this video. When you hear people talking about the accuracy and love the creators have dedicated to this and the TITANIC software coming in time, I stress that this is WELL worth the price at ANY cost. I don't spend at ALL on "games" (sorry, I know I said I wouldn't use that term, but I couldn't think of any other), and I didn't HESITATE to buy this. Because I KNOW how authentic and a labor of love this is.
PLEASE support these fine creators and get yourself this software - they deserve it all. You will be supporting a VERY worthy development and will NOT be disappointed. I'm a 40+ year TITANIC Historian, and I have been STUNNED by its' quality. I will be purchasing the TITANIC: HONOR AND GLORY software as WELL when it comes out. I personally can't WAIT to see that one in its' completed form.
2D is cool. VR is amaizing! See how the bow plunges below the water. The water comming up the stairs and you trying to escape to the stern while funnels are falling on your head. This is the future of VR where it has the most potential.
Hoping the money you got from the game is getting you closer to completing Titanic: Honor & Glory
Great stream - and I loved the trailer!
Break out the Titanic Soundtrack
Go to 47:53 on the video
Play track "Death of Titanic" simultaneously.
Of the 55 boats on board 23 stayed on board 32 were launched 2 were chopped leaving 30 afloat.
Gotta say this captain was amazing. He did all he could to save everyone
The captain is so determined to beach her, he must have a real “affection” for the ship.
The Titanic and Britannic sank in a very similar and almost identical way, but the similarities end with the Titanic breaking in half.
It just amazes me that the Britannic only took just about an hour to fully sink, while her sister Titanic is smaller than her, it took her 2 hours and 40 minutes!
The main reason why was that Titanic’s crew was attempting to slow down the ship’s sinking, while Britannic’s crew all got onto lifeboats and fled the ship, the only person that was really trying to save the ship was Captain Bartlett and small amount of Officers.
I think the initial collision/explosion on the ships would have a huge impact on the speeds of their sinking too. If the mine was powerful enough to snap the cabling for the Marconi wires and cause the watertight doors to fail, then the hole below the waterline on the Britannic must have been huge in comparison to the openings made by the iceberg on the Titanic.
Amanda Cox Well, the explosion was big against Britannic’s hull, but the iceberg caused gashes from the very front of the hull to just below the bridge of Titanic.
@@dawson9507 Also true. It's puzzling, especially since the bulkheads on Britannic were significantly higher than Titanic's and theoretically should have slowed down the flooding (if only the watertight doors and portholes weren't open). I guess there's a whole myriad of reasons why Britannic sank more quickly, some of which we may never know. At least the water was warmer!
Amanda Cox yeah. Britannic only lost 30 souls while Titanic lost 1,496 souls due to the break-up and also ice cold water.
Cool experience. It was creepy as the final plunge began! But guys... you have to work on your water. Those waves look annoying. You can do better. It looks cheap and doesnt fit the rest of this project. Price is also okay - hope it helps to get titanic finished soon :)
They need someone specifically to work on the water physics- I don't believe that they have anyone to do it so they just use the same water program as the one on the Titanic
So lovely animation I can't get enough of watching
Wow, I'm suprised they had clear footage back in the 1920s, the cameraman is so good!
"1920s"?
@@DerpyPossum close enough
and drones too!
Oh if Claire were here to see me now being so daring
At the very least this sinking wasn't at night. This actually made it easier. For rescue missions too. But still scary as hell.
agreed
