While I do not plan to purchase SH 5 when it is released due to DRM.Im sure eventually when DRM is out I will buy it.Im hoping for some key changes from SH 4

Few if any bugs.Surely they have QA testing

No big omissions like in SH 4.In SH 4 they had modern names for countries and islands instead of WW II names.Little things like that adds up and takes away from games.

Traffic in all appropriate places.Never forget my shock in SH 4 when NO traffic in a bunch of places, including Truk.Oh yea, they didnt even include a model for Truk in stock...WTF.

Some tough AI.One reason AI was so easy in stock was the skill on nearly every escort was set to Novice.Really?

no constant ridiculous spawning of aircraft.I know Allied air cover got heavy but it was never close to what it was in SH 4 stock, hopefully they corrected this in SH 5.

Realistic damage model

ability to dive deep as want.450 limit in stock S?H 4 was ridiculous.

German language with english text.

German sounds such as dive alarms etc No American dive alarms like in U boat missions.

ability to sit on ocean floor without hull damag occuring.In RL subs could sit on the bottom, not possible in SH 4.

All for now.

Anyone hope for any of same things?

I agree on all parts. Though I'd like to be able to set the AI to novice. I liked th easier escorts in SH4, let me have some fun early on while getting used to things.

I hadn't planned on buying the game for sure, with the drm..no..I simply do not want "another uboat game" that badly. I am mainly interested in playin in the pacific theater and don't much enjoy games that have me playing only for our enemies, esp nazis, even though I know it's just a game. So the fact that Sh5 was Uboat rather than having the entire sub war using BOTH Alies and Axis was a turn off to begin with. (SH3 was German, SH4 primarily American, so the next logical step would be for SH5 to have been Both Allies and Axis..including japs, russians, brit and italy perhaps in addons) but no..."another uboat game?" Combined with the nazi restrictions with the DRM I don't want it.
