Cold war subsim would be boring as hell, you wouldn't actually do anything just effectively spy on the other side. Which is why if you are going to do a modern day submarine sim then I'd go for a fictitious "war" that happened say at the turn of the millenium or something.... I don't know... some large terrorist faction emerges and has their own navy, or an African nation goes rogue or something well... it would need a good story...

WW2 gives subsims a good story already straight of the bat. But I don't think that WW2 should be abandoned in lieu of modern day subs... rather modern day subs being a choice as well as WW2...

Oh boy, this post is really informative and really well written! Warning: This post may contain sarcasm.
