I imagine given the hysteria, paranoia, and general freak-out that accompanies every new bit of info, Neal is going to be very careful what he shares before his full preview is published.

Exactly! I mean, man, some people go crazy over the littlest things. "Only three men on the bridge? OMG! The game is fail!!"

No wonder Ubisoft is so careful about releasing screenshots. The game is one fantastic looking sim, but someone always find something to carp on.

Comments and rating appreciated

"Los!" is German. Other stuff English. Did you have it set that way? Hard to tell the accents, but they sounded German to me. That will make some happy folks here.

In this clip, a salvo is fired at a British battleship.

Umm, looked to me like you were shooting at Bismarck...

Only three guys loading the eel? Teh game SUXORS!!

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Looks pretty cool so far. Thanks for the show.

Thanks Neal, much appreciated.

Absolutely gorgeous.

Onkel Neal · 02-11-10, 08:17 PM

Haha, yeah, it might have been the Bismark

Yes, had the voices set for English, still learning to play the game, don't need sailors talking about me in German

Yeah, ideally you would have 6 or so guys loading the torpedoes but I think there is a limit for a game... anyway, still looks cool to go to the fwd torpedo room at all!

Sailor Steve · 02-11-10, 08:19 PM

Oh, I forgot all about the 'disconnect/reconnect' that popped up in the video. It looks like you kept playing right through it.

Onkel Neal · 02-11-10, 08:24 PM

Yes, it made no difference. And I disconnected the coax cable from the modem (and my daughter started yelling at me from the living room, "Daaaad! I'm DC (disconnected? Thay have slang for everything these days.)). As far as I can tell, I have a regular copy of the game with the DRM. When the game started the first time, I had to log on to Ubisoft. Since then I have not had to log on, but a game launcher always comes up preceeding the game. If I discover I have a non-DRM version, I will let you all know. I don't see why they would send me a non-DRM version, though.

Yes it is soon,soon,,,

Yes, the launcher always pre-load just before the launch and shows also that it is pre-loading save games...

Its seems the seas are not so calm in this video. The crew reload was perfect!

ISP connect thing was a good example

Well, now that you mention it....

I notice they haven't done much recherche into the torpedo loading
sequence. The loading rod that screws into the rear of the torpedo is
utterly absent for starters.

The same is true for the engine room screens, as has been noted for some time now. I think, given the time they actually had to work with, they've done a exceptional job. Now we get to see how modable it actually is.

Yep, I'm sure there are a lot of small details that are not included. I expected ropes and pullys somewhere. But ok, I understand it's just a game. We can all discuss these things, and do it without tears.

My next goal, go through the boat and count the men.

"Twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight...wait, that looks cool!"

"Oh...darn!"

"One, two, three..."
