Forums are for opinions, this is just mine.
I guess the point here is "do you have a point?"

There will always be people who aren't interested in the product/subject (close on 6.5 billion of them to be honest), Ubi are betting that more people will pay for a fresh perspective on a previously popular subject (submarine Pac war) rather than an immediate rehash of the atlantic war.

Lets be honest, if Ubi announced that SH IV was going to be the atlantic, half the people on these forums would refuse to buy it, because they just bought it and are not going to pay for an "overpriced patch to a product that should have worked right when they bought it".

If they do the Brits med, it has to be an add on to an existing game, as the market for full priced UK/Italy Submarine sims seriously defines 'niche product'.

So I guess I'd ask, why bother coming to a SH IV forum and telling us you have no interest in the product/subject? do you think we care? what do you hope to achieve? do you do this on every other forum that is for a product/subject that is of no interest to you?

I'm not being insulting - I'm really quite interested.
