Why has this not happen yet? Watch this documentary and you'll know what im talking about. The soviet boats were great and the missions really challenging, it could easily be the best subsim in the series. Anyway, watch this and tell me what you think, i drooled at the potential of basing a sim over this documentary!
Enjoy

I think there are so many elements that need to be fixed prior to even thinking about going to different campaigns/theaters. Ubisoft has been notorious for basically slapping crap in a box and calling it good. Then slapping another "theather" with basically the same crap game (A la SH3 to SH4). They failed miserably with SH5 because instead of "fixing" SH3 they tried to get the fluff involved (Read RPG, crew dialogue, a better graphics) and completely missed the boat with the basics of sim play....and didn't even test it enough. It was a Joke...this game was literally almost unplayable in the released game. I"m glad I waited (since I felt burned from SH3).
Like was mentioned above......if done right... then Yes. I would say no Ubisoft involvement. Since they add fluff already then need to fix and expand it. And add new features that add immersion and realism. Very few sims get it right of of the chocks.... but Ubisoft didnt really set the bar high minus maybe Graphics.
Personal things I would like to see as extras? Random breakdowns with realistic repair. Food levels and quality. Bunks with curtains on it. Realistic periscope view (no "stuff" just the view). Better leaving and returning to port stuff (victory pennants, escort, actual bunker stuff like an office...maybe a bar, better crew management (I actually liked SH3 in that respect), daily crew meeting...a la dinner scene in Das Boot but give status report on fuel, food (supplies), repairs, messages, news from home, and crew issues, curtains on bunks. Cleaning stations...hahaha just kidding. There is so much "extra" crap that just getting the AI, UI, Graphics, and Weather right would make me happy.
