Unless they hide a big surprises or can squeeze in some of this stuff in the next weeks i dont see how they can put more than what they have said in the interview.

Very very very very disappointed in the 1943 ending.

the game ENDS abruptly right when things get interesting?

I'm not liking the sound of that

But how else will Ubisoft sell you an overpriced expansion pack?

Neal's interview with Dan and Alex.

I can´t believe it

one sub type and only to 1943 ?? i suspect about one sub only but the cripple campaign is a disaster for the community.

it means no radar, upgrades, the challenge of the late years...

A mod could be impossible because the game don´t prevent the use of advances ASW weapons, sonars, radars...


I think that the creation of a new GWX must be reconsidered again using sh4 as a engine.

If it's going to be as user friendly to modders as has been suggested, I reckon there will be a few modders past and present who may well venture into the game to add a few 'improvements'.

Fingers crossed and all that.

Yeah but horrific part is that some guys with day jobs, will have to:

Write 2 years worth of campaign files from scratch.
Create & kit bash some quality nurbs models of Types 2 & 9 (+interiors)
(No imported Sh3 meshes, as they will look possitively turd like, in the SHV world.)
Then there is the inplementation of all the upgrades and god knows what other hellish logistics.
Any takers?

Sure its possible, but done properly its still a massively time consuming headache (of GWX 4-like proportions....)

The Job of the modder is to paint the window frames and fix the guttering, (maybe build a plastic conservatory if he has time)
But this is like asking him to build another two floors and install the roofing.
You normally pay someone to do that

Unfortunatly, once you get into modding, it just doesn't work that way.
