Well the problem with that is that their previous sim (Sub Command) had three playable nuke subs as it was. So you would at least need 4 to begin with. SCS is infamous for topping themselves from previous releases. I like your thinking though. Perhaps SCS could have made DW as a subsim only and just have the three nukes from SC and add the Kilo as a playable upon release. Then later add the "Aviation ASW add-on pack". Then a few months later release a "Surface Warfare: OHP add-on pack". Milk us with these new (already planned/funded?) releases along the way to build support and increase player/customer numbers.

Oh well. Water under the bridge...as they say. Sometimes I think it's getting increasingly harder to impress the rising expectations of sim fanatics. My opinion only. DW still makes me very happy. I'm just hoping, as I've said before, for more content in the future from SCS. After a few years with DW happily on my hard drive, I don't think that's hoping for too much.
