The Perfect Nuke Sub Sim?

Frame57 · 07-05-08, 12:57 AM

What in your opinion would make for the "perfect modern day sub sim?". I would like to have a free range world map similar to what is used in the SH series. Also the use of tactical nukes for torpedoes, SUBROCS and ASROCS.

Oh and one other thing. Realistic combat tactics like being able to "Jam dive"

Message to self! OK, how about this: A mission editor feature that has a random surface or submerged foe. Not the random box select, but the game will generate it and you will not know where or what but it is coming to get you. That would be kind of fun. To me I am torn between the cool modern stuff in SC and DW, but SH4 has agreat "unknown" factor to it when you are on patrol. Now if we could combine those elements into a game, I would probably be in DR. Drew's rehab for game addiction.

I think the next evolution for a subsim
regardless of era.

is player/multirole

command an aircraft
command a ship
command a sub
command a squadron
command a taskforce
command a fleet

all combatants any shiptype plane type or country.
I think media needs to come out a bit more
we see now wonderful chase and free cams in
ever prettier environments but the next step isnt
just screenies as with IL2 its video but the need
to have it with a built in editor for title work and
effects and the ability to export video
ie. upload to youtube or whatever would likely be
next, possibly also integrating gamebased player
soundbites from built in Voice command and
ventro type comm's
Voice command invites crewman characters
that have potential to be familiars and dependables
adding further to immersion.

just a few thoughts you looked lonely down here.

I feel as though I am alone in a padded cell. No, seriously i think your right about the direction of a subsim or other warefare sims. I think the prospect of an Independant sim may look promising for sub fanatics. Maybe?

I still get nostalgic for my old fashioned seawolf once in a while.
