UBISOFT HOLDS A PLANNING MEETING FOR SILENT HUNTER 5

DAN AND MIHAI HAVE BEEN ASKED TO ATTEND A MEETING WITH SOME UBISOFT SUITS WHO HAVE FLOWN IN FROM PARIS.

Suit#1: How is the game coming?
Dan: What game? You haven’t authorized it yet.
Suit#2: What! But we authorized it back in November 2008. I remember laughing at the budget.
Dan: It’s fine…..unlike the budget.
Mihai: We incorporated all of your wonderful ideas. The game will now require 24 GIGs of RAM, an 8 GIG video card and an operating system nobody has designed yet.
Suit#1: We need it to run on Vista.
Dan: Nothing runs on Vista.
Suit#1: Make it run on the other thing then…Windows 11.
Dan: Seven
Suit#1: And on a cheap ass Walmart computer…like the ones we give you guys.
Suit#2: Don’t make it run too well though.
Mihai: No chance of that.
Suit#1: Good. We have a reputation to protect.
Dan: It’s protected.
Suit#2: Good. And don’t be too quick releasing patches. It makes it look like you knew that we underfunded the project.
Dan: Never let it be said.
Suit#1: What about those bastards at subsim?
Dan; Nice guys. What about them?
Suit#2: They keep demanding standards. We can’t have that. Shut them up.
Suit#1: Why can’t they be like our loyal Walmart customers?
Dan: Because they have brains and talent.
Suit#1: Exactly. We don’t want that. Shut them up.
Suit#2: And that Stevens guy. He likes to travel. Send him to some hotel that looks like Colditz in Copenhagen. Keep him out of the way for a while.
Dan: Already taken care of.....Lucky bastard.
Suit#1; Well, I think that about covers it. Keep up the good work.

As your fictional Suit #1 says: Keep up the good work!

You've always got to watch that Stevens guy.

TDK1044 · 08-24-09, 01:20 PM

Yeah. I heard they were releasing a DVD with Silent Hunter 5 to help it sell. Neal Stevens....Mall Cop.

somewhere there is an exec who is wondering if this thread is just a lucky guess or if we really overheard their "secret" conversations about the project
