Wait a minute.. I dident sign that. :03:

Umm.. yeah, modern sub games "Watch this screen as that blip disappears" doesn't appeal to me.

A strategic version maybe, where you controlled a whole fleet or something.

That's my thoughts on the subject too, although I do keep toying with the idea of getting Dangerous Waters - just to make sure.

Modern subs... :zzz:

No thanks.

Right.. modern subs and funky weapons.. lulz. Whats next, SH in space? :doh:

But... But... I like the smell of desiel :yep:

What you mean "we", paleface?

fine guys the ubi make a game for the same minded ppl wanting the German sub on F.W., savvy?:arrgh!:;):O:

count +1 for me...

I hate NDAs. =/

ummm.... no.

/thread

+1 ...hate modern sub warfare.
But in Ubi's determined path to destroy SH brand... nothing would surprise me...:dead:

Modern subs, no fighting unless it is a fictional scenario.. no thanks.

True. I should have amended my post to say "Another subsim made by Ubi - No thanks"

Considering Ubi has come up with a subgame based on WW2-turned into a semi-fictional scenario three times in a row I don't find the above negative at all :D

Seriously, almost every game based on the use of modern equipment has to be based on a somewhat fictional scenario because conflicts of proper scale and intensity where such equipment is used are thankfully rare. Falcon 4, LOMAC, Dangerous Waters, OFP, Arma, Arma2, Black Shark(although less fictional than the others) are all great examples of this.

That said IF the Silent Hunter series is ever continued I don't see why they would go modern. SH has always been about WW2 so it wouldn't make any sense to do such a huge leap as late as in sixth member of the series. They could have maybe done it back when the WW2 <-> SH relationship wasn't so strong, but now it's too late. Going backwards to WW1, maybe. The gameplay and the technologies available wouldn't be THAT different, and they've now done both major WW2 submarine campaigns a few times anyway. Another option would be to concentrate on a smaller campaign in much greater detail. Russian subs in the Baltic Sea, British subs in the North Sea and around Norway, etc... In this case a certain amount of fictionality would probably need to be brought in, because to my understanding neither of the above scenarios was quite intensive enough to be the basis of a good computer game, even if plenty of ships were sunk and lives lost.
