I must agree, especially after watching the new PT Boats KotS trailer. If you watch the ships, you can see crewmen running around on deck under fire (otherwise, just walking around), going into deckhouses, etc. Then, when a ship sinks, they jump off into the water and swim around. It looks amazing. Of course, Akella always was great at doing these things. It made them well known and respected when it came to naval games (like Sea Dogs and Pirates of the Caribbean). I mean, this is Ubisoft. They've got a lot more to work with than Akella in terms of manpower (and funds), this is the fifth Silent Hunter game, it's the next generation.
