New subsim on the horizon....

I'm hearing whisperings of a sequel to a well-known subsim action game. Some of the veteran dev team will be returning to create the game. More details coming....

Ok, here are the details from Tesseraction Games:

Tesseraction Games has a new owner.
Enigma: Sink The Hood is officially in pre-production.

This time out we are working to increase the playability of Enigma as a command simulation and a ship simulation; with a new host of ship simulation features. Imagine a difficulty slider with Enigma 1 on one end and Aces of the Deep on the other: that's the goal.

We will be using a state of the art rendering engine, a well known 3rd party physics engine, and support for joysticks and proprietary controllers.

What's going to be different about E2 vs E1?

- No hardware copy protection
- Multiplayer
- TAG will host servers
- Players can host servers (current plan is for 16 players)

- Terrain with Harbors, Ports, Facilities, and emplacements.

- Crew and Officer representation

- massive upgrade to graphics; particularly the ocean and ocean effects

- There will be no difficulty setting this time round, only realism settings: this will include items like reload times, required equipment operations (like hydrophones...), contact plotting, and radio useage.

- Ability to run silent

- no Time Compression and no "edge of battle" placement. Distance traversal will be handled like SWOTL and other games (warping available while out of range of any contacts).

- Drills and training will make a difference to performance of officers and crew

- Improved (and historically accurate) fire control systems (ships)

- Extended voice recognition systems (E1 was cited as having best voice recognition in any game by multiple reviewers) and voice response.

- comprehensive support for the modding community; everything from ships, instruments, controls, sky, clouds, terrain, fauna, structures, audio, all the way to particle effects.

There is much more to come, watch for announcements here at Subsim.

Do we get a hint? Era? Anything like that? :D

Ahm waiting to see who can come the closest with wild-ass guesses :cool:

I knew it, there is gonna be a Silent Hunter5 lol :D

well okies!

Silent Service III:D :ping: :ping: :ping:

It's sounds like it would have to be Enigma Rising Tide to me, or possibly Frogger.

:D Chock

I'm hoping for Revolutionary War era submarine combat!

Just imagine crawling up at less than 1 knot to a naval ship and spending minutes boring through to the hull to plant an explosive keg which might blow you up too if you didn't get away fast enough!

Awesome! :know:

Virginia Class Subsim - Sonalyst

That is the answer I will pull out of my posterior. :smug:

Oh boy... :roll: I have so many ideas I don't know where to begin!

so ... sh3 with the new GWX will be considered a new submarine simulator ... it figures

Red Storm Rising II...:up:

Aces of the Deep 2????

PLEASE let it be SH5 - as a Viginia Sub with full 3d and crew and a new cold / hot war theme...

P L E A S E !! !! !!

Elphaba

New sub sim - Imperial Japanese Navy

Oh please let it be the Imperial Japanese Navy !!!!!

Action game... action game? subsim action game... :hmm:

Is it Pirates II - the extended ballroom DDR version? :arrgh!:

what about a mix of all these subsims :hmm:

can be interesting

New subsim!? Ok your mission is load a submarine with the Columbian Cartels finest "Peruvian Marching" powder sneak it up the coast of South and Central America and off load it somehwere on the American Gulf Coast. Avoiding the US Coast Guard and other Naval Forces. The USCG should be easy if you keep her down below periscope depth, as the CG took off ASW capabilty years ago. Of course other "cartels" may wish to stop you and send out patrol craft looking like fishing vessels and of course for 100% reality only manual navigation no GPS......:doh:

It's going to be Fleet Command 2 from Sonalysts or an add-on pack for Dangerous Waters.

Halleluja if it's true. :rock:
