1:True full motion first person point of view with the ability to roam every compartment on every submarine portrayed in the game.
Roaming every compartment. OK. FPS-style movement? No thanks.

Quote:
2:Ability to signal enemy and friendly ships with lamps and radio.
Thank you.

Quote:
3:Have access to an assortment of small arms and the posibility to dispatch and accompany if desired, boarding parties.
Boarding parties from subs were extremely rare, so I don't think so.
Quote:
4:Be able to engage the enemies of nearby vessels who are shooting at you with their small arms.
You can - you have torpedoes, a deck gun, and at least one machine gun or flak gun (/smartass)

Quote:
5:Have the option to start your career as an ensign or Lt. JG and be the low man on the totem pole or "-spank me!-" until you've earned a command. (or be the XO who assumes command mid patrol should the skipper buy the farm from gunfire or even a concussion ala run silent run deep).
Quote:
6:Have a real "abandon ship" option with yes "lifeboatsresulting in a cinematic capture, rescue or a victim of the sharks.
I'd like that, too. Abandoning ship results in either capture, death, or rescue, depending on the situation. None, some, or all crewmen live, the rest get captured or killed.

Quote:
7:A horrofic implosion sequence at crush depth as opposed the mundane screen of death. (I've heard that instead of drowing in such a scenario, that due to the extremely rapid change in pressure the air onboard actually catches on fire)
Cutscenes would actually be nice, methinks. Sure, you'd click past them in anger if they were too long, but if they were only 3 seconds long or so, I'd love to have them.

Quote:
8:Fish enemy survivors out of the water who upon interogation, give up information like when the next convoy or task force sails from nearby ports.
Chances are high they wouldn't know that. And if the Pacific was like the Atlantic when it came to POWs, submariners were under orders to never take prisoners.

Quote:
9:Have a team of frogmen onboard who can be deployed to for special assignments like sabotage, recon etc.....
For special missions? Yes, I suppose that during a career, I'd like a "deploy/rescue a marine team" mission once in a while. Always? No thanks. Nice for games such as X3 or BCM GE, but not here.

Quote:
10:Have a genuine officers club with a "vip" room that incorporates some hotty anime floozies.
Why not? It'd add atmosphere to have crew that's off-duty sit there eating, reading, or suggesting the tying-together of nose-hairs.
