Wow -- great trailer. If the game actually plays anything like the teaser, then we're in for a real treat. Wolfpacking was conspicously missing from the list of "5 new features" though -- makes me kind of nervous.

I would love to see a "Worst Case Scenario" campaign option too: the abilty to scuttle / abandon ship if the unthinkable happens. Even 1914 Shells of Fury (which I bought today for $3.00 and am having a blast) has an 'abandon ship' option to end the patrol...yeah -- this puny, little budget sub sim gives you the option to scuttle your boat. The description in the manual goes on to say: "If you are fortunate, you will be rescued by a German ship and be able to CONTINUE the campaign."

How cool would that be in SH5? That's what I'm talkin' about here: campaign options, people! On a grimmer note, the alternative endings could also be simply summarized in the Post-Patrol screen: KIA or captured and sent to sit out the rest of the war in a POW camp... could even be played out cinematically like this fanatstic trailer Ubisoft just released. Well, I can only hope. I pray someone from the SH5 Dev team hears my plea. I'm an optimist, so I will definitely buy the game regardless.
