Im eagerly looking forward to a full 3-D interior, but its not the make or break for me in SH5. Im looking for a step forward in the game play, I would have been more excited if they made SH5 BOTH a Uboat and ASW Escort multiplayer sim. Tha would have been groundbreaking and would put to bed alot of concern over AI and wolfpack emulation. And really brought Silent Hunter into the 21st century.
I congratulate Ubi for persisting with the Silent Hunter franchise, its a great title with a great following and I think a lot of other titles should have been developed over the years the same way. But a full 3D interior should have been done A Long Time Ago, basically with SH3. Subs are relativly small known quantities, once 3d modling was developed in games it should have been a nobrainer -- a couple more rooms a couple more guys and this could have been in SH3. But better late than never.
Im going to buy SH5 like I have since SH2. Im sure Im going to love it, (Ive even grown to like SH4 despite the interactive step backward).But and this is a big but-- I think we should lobby for a ASW Escort add on with multiplayer interoperability. I would poney up another $50 bucks for that and buy SH6 Pacific War in 2012 too.
