If the final patch was an expansion disk ?

With separate engine control,would you purchase same? YES---NO---Perhaps

Well, if the only major improvement would be a seperate engine control then my answer is, hell no!

A chargeable expansion is just what it implies. An Expansion !! I would pay
if it included AI for subs, other driveables, all the bug fixes, more platforms,
working torpedos on surface ships, minelaying capabilities for subs & surface ships,
minesweepers that could and would detect & sweep mines, etc.,etc.,etc.,etc.
In other words, a large add on...

Agreed,

Yes, independent throttles would be nice, along with a proper representation of four engines.

As an expansion pack I expect it to be robust with all the usual goodies and missions etc of a true value added experience.

Any expansion pack would be bought and loaded on my hard drive. It can only make the game better IMHO.

The only time I'd want it in the Atlantic if I had the capability to command a capital ship

Any expansion would be quite welcome. Then we might get the Narwhal class boats as well as other enhancements and fixes.
As AVGWarhawk says any expansion only makes an already enjoyable sim even better.

Just an FYI..Back when I started a thread for ideas for an expansion pack, I gathered the bulk of it all and gave it to Neal. he said he'd forward it to the Dev Team, after that I am not sure if UbI soft would be interested in it. I think that $ is the issue. I cant & wont speak for everyone, but if it was a big enough expansion pack I know I'd pay full price (@$50,00 US). Thats just me, I'd like to see UBI Soft show some pride & dedication and do it.

And thats also me too! I'd be more than happy to pay the full price if it was big enough. Hell, generally speaking I wouldn't have any problems paying those prices from games what they had 10 years ago if it means that customers do not have to be beta testers anymore

Hell No!
Why should one pay to fix the game?
If you'd buy the expantion this would start a trend among software developers:
They'd put out buggie software just so you'd PAY again an maybe a few time more.
OR
They'd have a good working software an put out a buggie version just to get more money.

The best way to figth these developer is to get congress to change the copyright/patent law. If a developer puts out buggie software an either charges or abandons the software there copyright or patent should be taken away.

Yeah it's bloody hillarious....


I'd buy an expansion, i'd want either more subs or even Destroyer Command for SH4.


Edit- I find trolls funnier as they can pick anything to be negative about.

Not wishing to quote anyone.

The Dev's,are only employees of UBI.the Subsim moderators may have inside knowledge,that the Dev's are still working on SHIV,and fan-boys is the only way the job will get done,with good will,$ are an incentive UBI might understand,Integrity aside,
