This game is a joke
Historical accuracy in this game is a joke. I'm not even talking about the lack of a proper German flag.
1. Canadian ships use the modern flag instead of a Red Ensign. 2. British flags use a Union Jack instead of a Red Ensign. 3. Royal Navy ships use no flag at all. If Ubisoft did that, we'd laugh at them hard and downvote the game. How can we tolerate it with this one? |

Which is why no mainstream developer or publisher will ever touch a subsim ever again.

It's a shame Gates, Musk, Buffet and the like aren't subsim enthusiasts ...

are you serious? This game is heavily in early access and people are nitpicking stupid things like this extremely useless when it comes to gameplay?

Next we'll be regaled with how wonderful SH3 is in comparison! Same old, same old.

I'm expecting American Ships with the Facebook flag at this point.

As others have already said, this game is still in the development stage. Right now they are more worried about making it playable and enjoyable than they are with minor details. Give it some time. This particular complaint is valid, but still minor. If this is still a problem as it approaches release date, then will be the time for complaints like this.

Hi guys,
I just bought this game and have only played it a couple of hours. What i'm sure : no, this game is not a joke, at all ! It's in early access, so .. Let's give time to the developers. It's a nice surprise for me. First, the sea is amazingly beautiful ! And management of the crew is a nice addition. I'm a SH3 lover, and i like this game and hope it will be great. Simple as that. |

This game needs time, there are already mods and the dev is online on Discord and listens and appriciates the ideas and bug reporting . There have been multiple patches since launch ( 4 patches in 1 week) that make the game better. But yeah, you have to complain about flags. I don't get what drives people like you to post this.
The title of this topic is just to invoke reactions, in my opinion you have no valid reason to title it like that. I'm glad i'm one of the people helping to develope the game, i also like the concept of UBOAT. It's something else and a very real part of normal submarine operations often overlooked in simulators. So for me it fills a niche, i think the price is very cheap and it'll all be alright in the end. Also i like to be involved in developing this game, i've been on the UBOAT Discord Channel since day 1 almost a year and a half ago and just to see the work done already gives me hope for this game. This isn't just a Fallout Shelter game, we got some really high level conversations and improvements going on, that might surprise you.. Last edited by Kloef; 05-07-19 at 11:53 AM. |

Seriously, Modding in the correct flags takes about the same amount of time as it does to write 3 posts complaining about it.
