Default New trailer!

Just saw that Gamespot has a new 6 minute trailer up.

http://www.gamespot.com/pc/sim/silenthunter4/media.html

As always SH4 is looking as great as ever. We get to see some video of the new "adversial mp mode", and the S-Class too.
I also noticed there appears to be a slight transparancy to the water aswell.

I thought there were new ones there that I hadn't seen, but it was just the dev diaries. Oh well.

Downloading newest trailer now.

Dissection time!
  1. They call Naval Academy Submarine School? That's so cozy! (er, don't ask)
  2. I also like that Quick Missions are now apparently not just an MP feature (I want to play them by myself with time compression).
  3. MP destroyer command is even more awesome than I thought it'd be. You're actually given that much control of the destroyers? Awesome!

How cheesy is the ship destroyed music?! I felt funny all over and got cheese goosebumps when I heard it the first time.

Thanks for the tip, some nice shots of the transparency effect

Which got me thinking... how awesome would it be to see a pod of dolphins swimming alongside with this water. Please let there be dolphins!!! If there are I hope they follow the sub like they would in RL.

Organics in SH4 would be a great touch but I sure would hate to run into a Bluewhale

Wow. I'm impressed by everything in that trailer (except for the practice of surfacing in front of battleships )

Graphics are fantastic, adversarial mode looks great, the interiors are really nice, and I'm again very much liking what I see of the interface.

Totally agree with you,mate! Surfacing that close in real-life would certainly have ruined the day.. Well, let the subsim-modders fix that one....

Eh, I think it's more for trailer purposes. Hell, that's how I got some of my best screenshots in SHIII :p'

I don't imagine it'll be any more... possible in campaign than it is in SHIII.

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention - the S class! I think we now have definite evidence she's in and looking good!

By the way, did anyone catch the classes in the menu? It went Balao, Gato, Porpoise, S Class, Salmon... but there looked to be a scrollbar. What are they hiding? Maybe room for V-class? :p
