Check out the screenies on Gamespot. There's one nice interior view. The water is definitely ala LeoVampire.

Nice!

A couple of things I noticed:
  • On the box cover, there looks to be a Beaufighter in the upper-left hand corner of the screen. Might some new aircraft models be coming?
  • One of the bridge watch crewman looks to be wearing shorts! Nice little touch there.

Yeah. Lots of nice eye candy. Mayeb this is Ubi's way of getting the SHIII hold-outs to transition to SHIV. They said that there won't be any Wolfpacks, but they are keeping it in mind for future sub sims. At least you can call in air support and coordinate with auxilliary cruisers (aka flaklighters).

If you look in the credit list when the Add On is released, I believe you'll see Dave's name listed.

That's good to see. I like it when game companies recognise talented modders by including their work in official updates and addons

Now isn't that great! Nice of UBI to do that. UBI gets my vote.

Not anywhere but the ETO they didn't. Aircraft in other theaters never had them in the first place.

I noticed that too when I saw the box cover, I wonder if they will add in other aircraft that are missing and remove the ones that shouldn't be there?
