I would take that as a given; not because the Atlantic u-boat war is inherently better or more fun, or even more popular, but because that's where it all starts. If SH5 isn't to be a dual-theater sim right out of the gate, then the U-boats are the logical place to start.

But we'll see. That blurb may or may not be remotely accurate.:sunny:

The PC version of SH5 will obviously be a windows 7 game. That means it will run on Vista also. Hopefully it will also run on XP.

I hope so....I'm planning on holding on to my XP Pro discs for as looooooong as possible :o

Well, as things go, SH2 (fleets) SH3 (uboats) SH4 (fleets) SH5 (uboats) or perhaps both! So much information and work has been amassed in both theathers, logically, all should be integrated.

PS. I find fleets inherently better and fun:O:

Vista is nothing to be scared of Jim, 7 is even better. I would like to say I miss XP but I would be fibbing to you.

Why can't it be a DC\SH ? It's a shame they leave Destroyer Command in mothballs.

SH2 was u-boats, right?

Mine is.

Sorry, correct. :oops: Point is, it seems to flip back and forth. Jam it all together in one big happy file!

Destroyer Command did not sell. No sales = no sequels. :wah:

Fair comment....both my offspring are running laptops with Vista on and TBH I guess I haven't given it a chance.

They seem to like it but TBH the son only had XP Home on his previous laptop for a year before he upgraded to a better machine and the younger daughter has only ever known Vista.

Three year back I purchased three official XP Pro discs (with accompanying licences) and they have served me well enough thus far.

I'm actually witholding an upgrade to a quad core on one of my machines....don't want to take the plunge or chance the expense until a good reliable and well tested OS is available (hopefully 7) :hmmm:

Well I make that 3-1 to the U-boats (counting SH5).....we'll let the SH4 add on slide.....4-1 would be a near landslide :DL :03:

Must agree though (and I've already posted to this effect recently)....this is a perfect opportunity to combine both the ATO and PTO from the outset :up:

In your situation is it understandable because of SH3 and modding it, etc. Vista hates star force as mush as we do. As far as 7, the beta was very much stable right out of the box. I have heard very few complaints and plenty of attaboy with Window 7.

That's good to hear (positive comments re: 7).

Starforce has never been a problem at this end though....thankfully http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/4...kbigid2zj6.gif

It is a good opportunity to put it all together. Currently with SH4 if you change one boat in one theater it screws with boat in another theater. For me, does not matter u or fleet, as long as SH5 is coming the genre lives on. That is all that matters in the end:yeah:
