Hello I'm new, but I have been playing the SH games from the first one. I have noteced a lot of SH 5 idea threads popping up and I had an idea of my own.

How about a fictanal World War 3, starting between the US and China in say the year 2020? The game itself would start out with the player being commsioned to a nuclear sub at the bagging of the war as it's caption. The game could have a list of cool fetures.


Submarines:
Aside from the submarines that are in servise at present date, there could be new submarines in the game that are ethar in davelopment or not developed yet.
For example large missle carring subs that can rapaedly fire, and reload, tomahawks at a ship, land target or aircraft.

Also a small under sea craft that can dissable ships like dastroyers or other subs and ethear capture them or call in a ship that can capture them.

Also submarines of modern day warfare could have speeds of 50 to 75knts.

Carrior submarine hybride capable of diveing to depths of 800 meters, and at surface daploying F-22's, drone fighters and other aircraft from it's flight deak.


weapons:
As listed above raped fire tomahawk missles that can fire say 200 missles in about 20 minuts. (one missile every 6 secounds)

A weeker waepon like the one listed above but smaller and faster, holding 2000 missles and fireing in 15 shot berst for 5 secounds. Attacking surface ships from long range.

EMP Missles.

Remote Controled torpedos capable of hitting there target with 100% accuracy as long as you stay within 1 mile of them.

Nukes might be fun.

Phalanx CIWS systems on carrior-sub.

Game Play:
The game could fallow a defult timeline that can be afected by the player. For example a battle in the game simmaler to The battle of Midway could be pre-set on the timeline, but the battle is won or lost dapendent on the players involvement and the games difficulty level. On Easy the Amarcans win the war even if the player dose nothing. On normal the player can set the tide of the war bast of there praformance. And on Hard it is vary difficult for the player to win the war with a low praformace. However with the wide variaty of modern weapons and speed to get you were you need to go you can win the war. Vary Dynamic every enemy ship you sink helps your side win the war.

As being a subsim it would be simmaler to any other SH game just with modern submarines.


At any rate I'm personaly getting a little tierd with the world war II era. Theres only so meny World War II moives they made before thay had to move on, same gose for games. 688i was fun but missing the SH go and blow stuff up feel. I realy wont the gameplay of SH the Graphics of SH but more modern subs to play with.

Sounds like Command and Conquer on steroids. I wouldn't be interested because I'm a simmer. Fantasy doesn't grab me. I'm attempting to learn something.

That doesn't mean such a game would be a failure, it just means that it would orphan us simmers.:cry:

No thanks. I'll leave the "kill 'em from 5 miles away and 5 miles underwater" stuff to someone else. I don't get tired of WW2 because that's what I'm interested in.
