Very excited about this new release. Only seeing that they are keeping developing submarine (ww1-ww2 for me) simulators, is very good news.

And I like very much the full compartment/interaction with crew, I like it as much as realism. Although, like many people, I would like a very complete and non-repetitive interaction, I am ready to accept a (more likely) limited interaction and crew actions/answers.

Why? because I see that product just as all the rest produced goods in general; in our society we are paying several times for the same product: for example we pay each 2/3 years for a DVD player/recorder because it has new features, it supports new format etc, because manufacturers serve us half-finished R&D products, instead to go ahead and create, for example a long lasting product, for example let's say the Blu-Ray (let's imagine that Blu-Ray could represent a long-lasting product (?) ) directly after VHS instead of pass through S-VHS, CD, DVD...So with our multiple purchases of half-finished products we support a constant R&D.

(I don't say I like that situation neither I defend it, and I know too that there are cost reasons, etc that may (or not) justify it, neither I am not trying to argue here about video industry, it is only an example to make people get the point, nothing more, maybe it is not the best example!, so please, keep the answers on topic!)

For me even if this SH5 lacks realism (as the previous SH) or has some bugs, it is the same than in the example above, we are paying for let's say Silent Hunter 8, which could have a deeper crew interaction, 50% more of realism, etc.

This could be another R&D product that we pay for in order to support future development... As SH3 and SH4 were, instead going from Silent Hunter 1/2 to SH5 directly. Imagine you the change that would had been to go from SH1 to SH5, people would have been drooling during months even with bugs and not so 'complete realism'...

Just another point of view.

In any case, if you want to influence Ubisoft to include your points of view/ideas for SH5 you could always postulate for this:

Ubisoft Romania (developpers of SH5) is asking for a programmer. The announce is from 14 august! So quick, send them your CV
