There there, don't cry. I'll have Olaf make you some soup. And if you eat it all like a good boy, maybe Herbert will tuck you in and read you one of his poems.

think of it this way.

Go play the original Medal of Honor

then

Go play Brothers in Arms...

in BIA the cut scenes tell the story of various characters, though both games deal with WW2 combat, brothers in arms is clearly the superior game... not because of interface, not because of graphics, but because the ENTIRE outlook and concept of the game is revolutionized.

When a character in MOH gets his head blown off... i could give a damn.

When a character in BIA steps on a land mine, there is a moment of reminiscence, a feeling of loss... a connection that other games of the genre dont offer.

hopefully, this is the effect we see on the SH series.

i know for a lot of you, driving a sub from waypoitn to waypoint on a map and attacking ships is all its about.

but i genuinely think that this whole RPG element could take the SH series to a whole other level of greatness.

:yep:

The difference is that BiA had a static campaign. That allowed it to have a storyline intertwined with scripted missions. You were essentially playing a story.

If SH5 has open-ended gameplay, if it'll be "go out on patrols until you die" or until the war ends in '43 :shifty:, I don't see how they can shoehorn in a worthwhile storyline or character development.

When you're on your tenth patrol, and your sonarman breaks down AGAIN for the umpteenth time, won't that get a little old?

What happens when you get sunk, start a new career, and you have to deal with the same characters and the same dialogue all over again?

Simply check the vaseline for any sand particles.

I agree, this could be a problem. But so many wanted a fully modelled Boat with interactive crew, this maybe the price we have to pay.:hmmm:

No no no! More and more reasons to cry loud :wah:
Hope i can post so much today that it is enough for the next forum rank

Puh... that´s it... back to normal :D

Whats up with all the special abilities ? Whats next ? lvl's on your uboat ?
"You have sunk a medium cargo, you still need 400xp to lvl up."
:damn::damn:

well about the chief liking sweets (i assume its sweets here, if he likes sweats, then i will stop here) or the poetic guy, is just fine with me. i mean theyre all supposed to be human, and all of us like different things, often surpisign things, like tough chief engineer who has been working with the gears and vents for ages also loves candy:woot:

but magic like making the sub go deeper is just gamey bleh...

I dunno, finding out the LI likes candy isn't exactly an earth-shattering revelation regarding the limitless and often unexpected depths of human nature.

I mean, c'mon, WHO DOESN'T LIKE CANDY?

:O:

They may still like it.

I have a cousin allergic to cheese, but she still can't resist eating it every now and again.

Has she seen the "Your Crew" page yet? That might help.

Oh Frau, that was "sharp"

Of course I was just kidding. A friend of mine is a diabetic his whole life and an avid fan of chocolate.

And I like the "Cheese-Comment" of Frau Kaleun. ;)
