after all they said you WILL hear the atmospheric sounds from within the uboat but the sound of depth charges will only "most likely make it in"



when Frenssen farts... get it? just like in Das Boot :haha: maybe you'll even be able to put an oxigen mask on...

Well i found "Frenssen farts" the most interesting part of das boot! Dont you?

no, not at all. I personally love the scene when they surface to finish off one of the ships from the convoy.

anyhow, it was a joke... :shifty:

Will it be possible to hear sounds like depth charge explosions and sinking ships (even whale songs?) with the hydrophone? This didn't work in SH3.

Negative on the whale songs, for now. However depth charges and sinking ships will most likely make it in, and overall we feel the hydrophone station / crew member will be more useful than in the previous games.


Will there be more atmospheric sound in the uboat compared to SH3? I'd like to hear some talking, laughing and snoring from time to time.

Since the player is free to roam in a 3D environment, that environment should be believable and immersive. Yes, those kinds of sounds are an important part for this and some of that will be seen / heard in the game.

I wonder why they wont have whale sounds?

No whales in game. Unlike GWX.:DL

I asked whether aircraft carriers would be able to launch their planes, and whether torpedo boats would be able to launch torpedoes. Neither question has been answered.
There are a lot of very good questions that have gone unanswered.

this is true but at this point it no longer matters because the game will be available for sale in 5 weeks so wait for accurate answers and avoid bad info or guestimates.

some things were told to us that they were in the game but are now known not to be in the game after all so even ubi has had things change since the first answers were given.

That pretty much sums it up, yes.

It's a pity... this used to be such a fantastic community. Hope it will rise to its former glory again when SH5 comes out, the u-boats go out on patrol, and the modders get to work on their various projects:up:.

These are the questions that they chose to answer, out of all the options they had available.
Given that the full interior of the u-boat is one of their major selling points, I'd think that questions about the interior of the u-boat would have some kind of, you know, priority.

Honestly still don't see the problem. I mean, how many of you hate Falcon 4.0 Allied Force because you can only fly variations of the F-16, with the plus side being a nearly 100% complete cockpit with every switch, button, dial and computer feature implemented? Lemme see a show of hands.

Listen to this man.

He makes a lot of sense

You do make sense. I love Falcon and I like the idea of a study sim that focuses on detail and accurate systems.

The big question and worry, however, for me is that we have really no idea if there is ANY increase in detail or accuracy with anything in SHV. We may end up with a study sim with nothing to study! I have compared this to Falcon not simulating fuel. It just wouldnt be right. I dont mind the fact that we only have one u-boat type but it should be very detailed systems wise.

Which man ? The one with the long trousers or the other one in the corner with a pinacollada ? Be more specific man!

Do you know the history of Falcon 4.0: Allied Force and the company that was formed to develop it? They were a group of modders who got a license to develop the orignal game and fix all the nasties. Is that what you think will happen with SH5?

so, no more questions need to be answered? that means, some dumb, green and hopeful sim fans first need to buy this game, to give the missing answers??? i dont see the sense in your statement.

its cheeky, not to let us know, what is exspecting us - questions where asked more than enough. the mainstream may not care (but even they might be more interested, as one might think) about details. but that does not legitimate ubi, to make such a bad information policy.

i am a more ambitious customer, than most of the main folks and want to know, what i am buying for 50 bucks. its not like buying some icecream, which might be not that tasty, as i exspected.

The exterior sounds "might be making it in" is most likely due to programming problems, where having the interior sounds may be MUCH easier to impliment just due the nature of the coding required.

For crying out loud, give the devs a little credit.

Oh and please realize there are no stupid questions, just stupid answers.

These questioners had every right and reason to ask these questions, even if you would not have asked that.


at last a good response :) and i totally agree with you :)

people seem to moan and moan on here even before anyone has even got/reviewed the full sim yet.

No. Does it matter?

So now whoever is looking forward to the game (me included) is "dumb" and "green":shifty:? Thanks for the insult.

Yeah, it's incredibly unfair, considering the touching and admirable level of respect and maturity you're showing the devs in the first place.

OK, now you're just obviously trolling. Ignore list for you.

HundertzehnGustav 01-24-10 01:10 PM

ay ay ay urfisch.

I understand your feelings (i guess) but please, come down back to earth. That lol'ing@everybody aint doin you no good, my friend.

Please consider taking some distance to SHV, do the dishes, relax with a Movie and take the wife up to cloud number seven. Multiple times. edit. Or the other way around.

after, its all way more relaxed.

I have been there yesterday, and a break, a shift of Viewpoint helped me.

*hands Urfish a Beer*

urfisch 01-24-10 01:16 PM

thanks.

*drinkin beer...*
*relaxin in front of the tv*

it is obvious im saying you will have the game long before you get your questions answered from ubi so stop thinking they will finally answer your questions.

you can continue asking the questions if you want to but ubi has told us all they are going to at this point

so if ubi isnt telling you anything where else can you get the answers to your questions but from someone who has the game on their computer
(re: wait till someone buys it and they can answer your questions)

or you can call the phsycic hotline
