Default Why does this WOTA Nonsense sound better then SH5

lol for a few reasons

1939-1945 Campaign (No half the war then Boom your done)

ALL U-boat Classes (Type 7 is small sometimes)

Fully modeled Interior (On an Ipod? Good luck..)

WOFLPACKS ('nuff said)

however.. to be able to play this 'amazing' game, you have to have the finger digits of a six year old

Sorry.. gotta do something in the morning for a little laugh..

I'm guessing Krauter doesn't own an iPhone. I do and I'd love to have a good sub game on mine.

Huh.. I don't see any availability limitations here http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...7/m/4731093358 but I have to say.. shopping on Ubishop is a real challenge.

I tried to buy it but without any luck, selecting the ipod platform on ubishop gives me a "no result found" message. This is such a fail company, they can't even sell their product Maybe you can get it on Steam or D2D ...

Default Sub command by the thumbs

It is kind of realistic, in a way. When the battery on your iphone runs down, game over!

A WLOFPACK is a group if iphones sharing a mission, saying repeatedly, "LO, LO, are you there?"

Well having checked it out - I mean WOTA I'd like to disagree that this is nonsense – far from it in fact - sure the graphics are a bit weak, but if you consider this is a labor of love built by one or two enthusiasts I think its an astounding achievement and I would like to give them all encouragement


If some of the SubSim modders and members could stump up some funding and some technical expertise, and if the author of WOTA was willing - I recon it would be the ultimate fun to have a gamer produced game - now that would be fun, and a great way to put one up the publishers!

And before anyone screams – I’d be quite happy to stump up $1000 if I was sure the concept had legs and stood a good chance of being completed

My two cents worth

Regards

WOTA is developed in Unity gaming engine. For those who say that the graphic is weak. Consider that this is a mobile phone game that is developed by one man without any funding whatsoever. So i can compare this game to SH5 iphone version and i can say that SH5 version is crap. This game is done for money, WOTA is being developed for love.

I hope that WOTA developer will earn a nice sum of money from this game. Sadly i think that the market is not in right place because Iphone users like to buy "quick in, quick out" arcade type of games. I just dont see thousands of people simulating UBoat action on a Iphone.

God i hope i am wrong
