There are many well written posts in opposition to this (mod?), but I don't think that this thread is neccesarily a true cross section of the market for an IJN experience within SH, nor should it be considered one. (I know that would apply to my post too, but what can you do?)
I think I make it pretty clear what side I'd like to play on, and it isn't because it's the winning side. The allies won the war, and SH is predominatly a German atlantic theatre game experience. I know there are people who feel the American experience should be next in line, but I never saw major oposition to SH3 focusing on U-Boats again when SH3 came out. It was a better experience for the fact the boats were better, yeah, but I also think there's a little of that "bad guy" desire too. We usually like to be on the bad side. It's more fun to be Khan than Kirk, you know.
I get it that some may want fulfill their recreationist dreams through the game, playing it out as it happened, with enforced limitations as to how things should turn out, but equally so, people want the enemy side experience too. I don't expect to win the war, but I'd like to try and win a few battles. At least let me have the opportunity. I'm in it for the experience, not necessarily for a fast turn, or quick dive.
It seems written in stone that I won't get IJN gameplay in SHIV, but if Ubi doesn't leak that SHV
will be IJN based, then they should take part in an aftermarket IJN mod for SHIV. Yes, I'd pay for it too.
