Or that just means that there will be an MP gamestyle as in SH4, one plays the uboat, one plays allied surface ship.

To me they came across like playing the Americans was a bad thing, a problem that needed a remedy. But hey I could be wrong, maybe we'll get those Brit boats after all!

They missed a big opportunity to have Japanese subs in SH IV. Wasn't some mod group working on that-haven't seen anything in the relevant mod forum about it in some time tho.

Yes there is a Japanese campaign in the works I believe. Seems the SH4 forums have died out a little with the tiny bit of news of SH5 coming out.

Exactly. There is no evidence whatsoever that we can play the Allies in SH V. The reviewer was simply comparing SH IV to V is all.

This was my interpretation as well.

Regardless of the side you play for, the game is easy to get into.

Why would they have said that then?

##Wow what the hell is up with my user pic?

Welcome to a Wild Night in Bangkok! :har:

From www.ign.com:

Multiplayer Functions in SH5

* Offline Versus Multiplayer (8 players)
* Offline Co-Op Multiplayer (8 players)
* Online Versus Multiplayer (4 players)
* Online Co-Op Multiplayer (4 players)
* Online Multiplayer

What does it mean "online versus multiplayer?
And what is difference beetwen three last points?
Hm...
:hmmm:

You could be right on the money there :DL

Well, if there is MP, then surely it will be sub vs sub or sub vs destroyers. Which would make another side playable, obviously you won't have Germans vs Germans.

Of course it could only apply to MP and the SP game is Germans only. :hmmm:

youall talkin about this one... it was one of the shots from the sh4 Uboat missions addon...:yep:

i think it simply means its reverting back to the U-boat game in the ATO, like SH3 was before SH4.
all i can say is thank god for that! the japs were hopeless in ASW.
im betting that SH4 was nowhere near as popular as SH3 was.

Yet more vague descriptions. Montreal?:hmmm:
