Not at this time, all the effort is going toward getting a single player mode established, VOIP, and making the Scapa Flow mission. Have a "departing from the U-boat pen with waving girls and drunk commanders on shore leave would be pretty cool, but would not add much to the gameplay. In fact, I could see that a lot of players would start asking for a Skip button to bypass it after the 20th time
As with a lot of interesting potential features, we have limited manpower and we have to focus on core features.
thanks!
