Enhanced weather system.
Weather corresponds to climate zones.
Blizzards added.

Lots of cool stuff on that list but anything that improves the weather is very, very welcome. I hope it's not random, but creating a truly or even halfway realistic weather system would probably be a major challenge.

Wolfpacks weren't announced yet by the devs.

UBI "thinks" about wolfapck now. It's mean that they are calculating the budget for it...

In my opinion better solution is free-bug game without wolfpack than bugged game with bugged wolfpack

Antar's right :

There will be AI operated boats. Wolfpack mechanics are under consideration. This is something we always wanted to do but we want to do them properly so there’s a question if we’ll be able to fit them before release.

It's not about budget, but rather about creating new AI routines now. And doing so at this point in the development would be rather unexpected, in my humble opinion that is.

agreed, It's not about budget, unless we are talking about budgetting how time is spent on things

but i would also say the time has also long since past for creating new AI routines as well and in my opinion its much more likely that any work being done on sh5 now is only about trying to iron out issues with things that are done but not working just right

If you're going to be editing new things into the list it might be helpful to put new additions under their own header in the post, so people can quickly and easily see what's been added since they last checked.

So you'd have...

Nov 11 2009:
Old stuff
Old stuff
Old stuff
Old stuff
Old stuff
Old stuff

Nov 18 2009:
New stuff
New stuff
New stuff

Nov 25 2009:
Newer stuff
Newer stuff

Or something like that anyway. Just a thought.

Well yes, that's what I'm saying. I think.
If new stuff is going to be added to the list in the first post it might be more convenient if the newer items are specifically dated, so that when people check the thread they can see at a glance what's new.

If new stuff is going to be put in separate posts then obviously it doesn't matter because separate posts are displayed separately anyway.
I just thought that new info was being added to the original post because of sober's post just up there ^ asking if he could edit the op.

Probably a misunderstanding on my part.
