for starters we have already heard "1st Quarter if 2010" as a release period this means January, February or March. - even if it is later in the year - no big deal.

secondly... if you take a look at the SH3 forum there is a thread entitled "The unofficial 'official' SH3 screen shot thread"

the purpose of this thread that i have started is 2 fold.

1. This is a place for any new screens which subsim members happen upon - they can post those screen shots here so that they are located in ONE place.

2. Post release - any screen shots people take while actually playing the game can be displayed here in this thread.

My hope is that the mods will make this thread a sticky so that any screen shots - be they from ubisoft OR by players actually playing the game after it is released... those screenies can be shared with all here in this thread.

:salute:

What are those four things on the front deck of the u-boat in that beer wave pic?

Water tight containers for 5 man life rafts if memory serves me.

yap. right, liferafts. a later war addition...the boat in laboe also had these...

Here is a few from the first release to make the "collection" complete.

and one new one

the last one isnt an ingame shot!!! its concept art.

i think concept art is fair to include... at least until more substantial screens are released.

The 'concept-art' shot shows the running lights of the surface vessel. That's one feature I hope SH5 includes; lights on hospital ships and cruise liners etc. it just adds to te atmosphere.

Are you sure? When you take a closer look on the hi-res original the crew seem to me rendered in game engine. But I might be wrong...

Is that guy on the left waving or hanging on the cable/antenna? If he's hanging on he might get his hair straightened out if the radio operator hits the transmit key.:arrgh!:

Yeh, but the ship doesnt seem like it's from the game. Looks more like an photo of an ship that was just used as the background, too many little details. :hmmm:

Hi mates!

The ship in this image should be Conte Verde (SH4 huge european liner)

No reason why it wouldnt be an in game screen shot , i am hoping anyway . That is awesome fog , geez i hope the fog is the same as that .

Wouldn't mind seeing that much detail on the merchants and escorts http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...ies/pirate.gif

I'm laughing at the guy looking through the optic sighting system on the deck gun, with a 30m gap between him and a F*&%@#! massive hulk of a ship!

Dev questions and answers 21.10.2009
Will Silent Hunter V have added the Dynamic Shadows feature?

SH5 already has dynamic shadows – check out the screenshots, for example, here are some that we made for SubSim! It’s pretty cool and it brings ships and other units to life, integrating them in the visual environment of the game.

The detail on this sub looks a thousand times better than SH4 .

Awesome!! In the graphic's area. I'll expect animations to the same level.


PD: The sub has a mast, can we hang a flag? Can we order to unfold symbols?

Well it looks too good to be ingame SS (fog looks just amazing), but I`m hoping for that too.

I think it's from an intro movie or something.
