Damage Control Animations?

[GoldenRivet]

The end of the trailer - where the captain is holding his knights cross - is reminiscent of the quiet down time scene in das boot where they are stuck on the sea floor waiting to see if their damage control is going to work.

I wonder how detailed the crew's duties will be in the respect of damage control?

wonder if we will see water pooling up around the floor while men hand one another wrenches etc?

That would be a neat effect. Water sloshing at your feet as you move about the boat.

Instead of the holes you see in the side of your sub in SH4 it would be nice to see dents.

Do we get to see the cloud of chlorine gas if seawater gets to damaged batteries?

Will we see our crew die before us to drive home the point that it was no game?

I just hope it doesn't come at the expense of wolfpacks. Wolfpacks need to be present in order to feel like the series is making a step forward.

I would love to have SH5 with 3D glasses

damage control would be ace, seeing some guys fight with water from a pipe or sommat.
my biggest question however is this. when you call an alarm, do they all run towards the bow compartment?!
if they do i don't care how else the game plays (i may regret that) i'll love UBI for ever.

i definitley think we should be able to see water coming into the boat and rising in the compartments that are taking on water and watching the levels rise

yeees i would like that, transparent but allready a bit muddy seawater is rising, together with little floatsam of equipment... by flooding the conning tower, your crew have to wait until the central level rerached the hatch to the conning tower, ready to try an escape to the surface using a Tauchretter (a kind of Momsenlung).

...renember as the commanding officer, you have to wait until your crew got out

Even the few bits of crew action shown in the trailer will require a lot of power to run. Remember how excited we were when we heard there would be crew interaction in SH3?

I think it is safe to expect that the action inside the boat will have to be somewhat limited. Exciting times await us but it will be a looong wait.

Whats wrong with having an option in the graphics options .
Crew = sparse crew/medium crew/full crew etc .

Good thinking
