Thank God! At least something, although this isn't a reassurance we won't see it in the game...

They had rushed to open the site early due to an outcry from the community for information.

hence, there were numerous spelling and graphical errors because the site was rushed open about 3-5 days too early.

they are slowly getting around to correcting these problems.

now instead of using the same picture for multiple crew, the pictures have been corrected for example.

Good to see they have a ear turned this way. I just hope it has been
removed from the game as well. At least with the realism options on.

Four weeks before release is hardly early.

Even this looks more realistic than what the crew abilities are ...... were? in SH5.

i think it will be a pleasant surprise to learn that some was lost in the translation.

active special abilities for the chief:

silence electric motors.

all this might turn out to be is setting RPM to 50 revolutions.

no magic involved there

Setting the RPM to 50 is no more of an "ability" than setting it to 49,51,82,etc.

Why would that be listed as an "ability"?
