So, no. It isn't SH6 or anything we've been asking for since SH4. Ok.

I see your concern - keep in mind this is early access so who knows what the future holds, but I’ll tell you this: the experience of getting together with serious players in this is second to none and truly trumps any immersion I’ve experienced in other subsims, and I’m a longtime subsimmer. Sure, other sims have things that this doesn’t (yet), but the opposite is true in many ways.

My point- join us! Neal and I have a regular group that meets up every week at least once, and I can guarantee you no funny business troll behavior or incompetence is in sight. Keep an eye on the Wolfpack League forum!

I'm good. I can't stand multiplayer games, they tend to attract the Fortnite crowds. This looks like that Star Trek VR crew game. And that game was an awful excuse for a Trek experience. This looks like the same, with a WW2 coat of paint.

I guess when even the owner of Subsim can't give us the game we've been asking for since SH4 came out, we are never going to see it.

Playing with other people, will never Trump my Silent Service 2-Silent Hunter 4 experience all by myself. It's just the newest fad in gaming. But atleast the arcade crowd is happy. God forbid the arcade, simplify everything, looking for ships is boring crowd be unhappy. I'm not looking for another JRPG lite, to "get people into sub"sims"", we have 30 years worth of sub games to do that. I want the game we've been begging for since we realized SH4 was never going to be it. And I'm a bit put out that everyone else seems to get what they want, but we don't even in regards to our own damn community. It seems like people don't want to make submarine simulations (apparently sub"sims" is now just the JRPG version of submarine simulations), just sub"sims".

I'm not the Fortnight crowd.
derstosstrupp is not the Fortnight crowd.
Captain Summers, Rush the Bus, Stormfly, Paladin, Caddy are not the Fortnight crowd.

Wolfpack is the game we've been asking for.

And there's nothing arcade about Wolfpack. You might need to try it before you judge it. In Silent Hunter you simply pressed P for periscope depth, or C for crash dive. Time compression. Saved games. God mode map. Let's talk about arcade.

Where is the single player campaign? So you want it to take 15 days to cross the Pacific in real time?

No sir, this is the game you wanted to make not the game we have been asking for. This looks the furthest thing from what I have asked for in a Submarine Simulation game. At no time have I ever asked for a game where I'm crewed up with real people. It's annoying enough when I make a mistake that goofs an attack run. But have fun with your JRPG multiplayer sub game. Just don't call it the game we've been begging for since SH4, because even you know it isn't.

What does JRPG stand for?

Assuming we both know better than to speak for others, I have always wanted a serious U-boat game where it was necessary for a small team (crew) to operate the boat with skill in order to achieve success. I know a lot of other players have wanted the same thing. Ok, so you never wanted it, and a lot of other players never wanted it. Nothing wrong with that.

Junior Role Playing Game. It's a streamlined, short, easy to get into version of RPGs (ie. It's for kids or people who don't know RPGs).

No, that description didn't get remotely close to covering what the simulation community has wanted.

1: Dynamic Campaign covering the whole war. We have to ask this specifically now thanks to Silent Hunter 5.

2: Port/Starboard controls on the engines.

3: Physics and realistic sinking mechanics.

Ect, ect.

That list of wants.

And showing me an example of someone with little simulation experience being able to do that much, shows me how shallow all the mechanics must be.

But I'm happy you finally have what you wanted. Must be nice!

What an utter pillock. Christ man, you don't even know what JRPG is!
