No, they won't make another one, but does not mean that there won't be another company interested to do this kind of product in the near future. For now, Ubi is the only one and as long we are supporting their crappy projects with our wallets like sheep, they have an unofficial monopoly. They made this joke called SH5 just to keep the market "busy", with that slot filled, don't you see? For nobody to try anything in that particular area, so called "niche", which is not so "niche", in fact. Only when the Ubi SH series will die somebody else will come in.
And DFTD is not developing the way it should mainly just because of our LACK of interest. Personally, I would be glad to pay money for their game, and not 50 Euros, but 100, even if it's open source now, just because it's a more healthy project, a cleaner one. Even if it's just in development stage for such a long time. I would like to have a submarine simulation game that I will be able to play for years, and one that should be playable.
