Please [makers of SHIV] make the ocean surface slightly transparent from above! It isn't too much to ask.

Judging by the photos, the makers of SHIV are using the same graphics engine as SHIII. I can't say I blame them, as it costs alot of money to develop and produce a game from scratch and there is a limited market for this sort of sim/game. I'm still gonna buy it, just like the rest of you, but just be realistic in your expectations. They're probably just building new models, adding a few new graphical touches and tweaking the Campaign structure.

If I'm right, then it's not so bad, afterall SH3 is very good and the Greywolves team are bringing it ever closer to perfection. I think they're wisely keeping what made SHIII good and, having taken a few notes from the subsim forums, are aware of what could make SHIV great.
