SH4
 

So I guess as I got sent this, that SH4 got green lighted a little faster than I thought. Excellent.

Ahoy TDK1044!

Silent Hunter IV - Pacific Campaign
Silent Hunter IV - Pacific Campaign is slated to begin early 2006. Ubi is assembling a dev team from the SH3 group and new programmers.

I just spoke with one of the DEVS. This seems to be true, Guys. Merry Christmas!

That's a merry Christmas indeed. I hope more info and screens will soon appear. This will probably mean that we are no longer kaleuns but skippers. Or will we be playing the bad guys (i.e. the Nips) again?

Woot! :up:

I think the DEVS learnt a lot from SH3, and are eager to produce an outstanding SH4. Whether we'll be the Japs of the Americans will probably be a closely guarded secret for a while.

I for one would prefer to play as the Yanks.

Other things I'd like to see:
- A more elaborate campaign, so not just "Patrol sector XY for 24 hours".
- Higher resolution (1024x768 just doesn't cut it these days)

And that's it basically.

Freakin Awesome. Wonder if we'll get to play as either side?
Would be neat to have that Jap sub that carried the plane....... :|\

Would be even better, if one could actually fly that plane in multiplayer.... :arrgh!:

I'd like to play as the Dutch. :D

On a more serious point, I wonder whether the developers will limit the gameplay to the Americans (the most obvious thing to do), given that the Dutch and British were also present during this time.

Also, I don't think we will be seeing anything in terms of Screenshots or specifications for a few years yet. If they are building a game from scratch, then this is going to be a long haul.

Which is good, because I haven't survived the war in the U-boats yet

Great news!

I think well be playing as the japaneese becaus ethe game has to get harder as time goes on and as the yanks it would probably get easier.

However the US subs did a huge amount in the pacific (sinking about 50% of all tonnage sunk so we may be playing as them.

Me too! :D
The Dutch Navy was very active in the East-Indies.

Oh, and since no-one brought up StarForce yet....I read somewhere (forgot where, though :( ), that UbiSoft is considerring going for a different copy-protection for their future-releases.

Allthough I don't have problems with SF, I still hope that they will drop it, as it drove many customers away from SHIII.

Good news indeed :sunny: :sunny:

its an expansion so does that not mean they will be using the SH3 engine and building on that? my biggest hope is that they make the campaign a lot more immersive. SH3 sure looks pretty but if u look at the amount of mods out there that tells u how good it was out the box.

i just dont feel like im involved in a uboat war playin SH3. its more just like a series of random battles

Be more aggressive ! :know:

Those are my feelings too. Im really looking foward to SH4 !

BTW TDK could you please do something about that avatar it is most disturbing ;)
