I want recommended specs for this game as soon as possible. My PC is pretty high end, And runs SH3 and SH4 very smoothly with the graphics maxed out. Quick loading times, Etc.

However this new installment looks like it will be a real resource hog, And I want the full experience. It's nice knowing in advance so I can plan and work towards upgrades if I need one. Or even if I have to build a new PC altogether. (Yes I'm pretty pathetic, I built a top of the line PC for Silent Hunter 3 and 4 pretty much, There were other perks to go with it, but it was my main motivation. I'm hopless.)

My first comment:

LMAO @ Digital Aura for the signature:

.........ALL YOUR BEACH ARE BELONG TO US!.........

Still laughing!!

:har:

That´s not entirely true. At least our future crewmates will cast their dynamic shadows on the subs floor and equipment. Just take a closer look at the few in-game screenshots.
On this shot the conning tower, the deck gun and even the ship at the peer in the middle have shadows:

So it looks good to have them really in-game. :ping:

Accurate buoyancy this time plz. I dun want any flying subz.

Is it just me, or does the wave-patern seem special? The water in the harbour is completely calm, but there are more pronounced waves around the sub, particularly along the hull.

Maybe the surface is now more dynamic, and the boat interacts with it?

I think the boats have real 3d wakes now...:yep:

omg fluid simulation!!!???

Maybe they made them a bit higher than in SH4, It would be nice if they would interract with sea waves... But it would be the first step to make sealevel more realistic, so I `d be happy even for that.

Very nice trailer. Even though I prefer the Pacific theater and U.S. Fleetboats against IJN, I will definitely buy this when it comes out. Looks like they are adding more capability to the SH franchise.

I just hope that someday they put this kind of emphasis back into the PTO.

UBI login support.....Anyone here? Please assist!
 

To any fellow subsim member with a valid UBI.COM user name and password.

• I am unable to login in to UBI because I've forgotten my password. :oops:All I want is to see the most recent SH5 development progress.
• I select the "forgot password" which sends me in a perpetual loop from hell to reset my password via an email link. When I enter a new password and hit enter I keep getting an error message. :shifty:
• I can't email the webmaster without logging in!!!! :stare:
• I don't want to create a new account!!! :stare:
• Can someone here please email them on my behalf? :wah:
• Please send me a PM if possible! Thanks so much in advance! :rock:

I hope it is not like SH4 but has a better way to control the men and U-boat as SH3. The graphics look great, hopefully we will only need one or two patches..wonder if GWX needs to save the 4.0 for SH5!

well
 

From the looks of things.. :arrgh!:

Things I would like to see in sh5:

1. completely moddable game.. :)
2. all other things people stated

Cheers!

I would like to see - some sunny daylight screens, hopefully windy... with a rough sea.

These dusk screens are sort of... development progress cheating.

But anyway... it's better to continue polishing sea surface and reflection... than to "declare it finished", with aim to reach declared realease date.

:know:

Thanks for informing me the good news.:up:

One of the things I've asked for, both here and directly of Dan, was the difference between sea state in the open ocean and in harbors. After all, they don't call them safe havens for nothing. Should be calm, or at least much calmer than outside.
