I'm starting to be quite optimistic after seeing some of the actual gameplay.

Especially like how it takes time for the WO to calculate the solution.

COMM for Comedy?

Actually looks pretty reasonable to me so far

Let's see what more they have to show. So far this is not bad at all. The basics of what makes an SH game are there, and the sub-switching mechanic is something I already like.

While I've said that online play of this type is not for me, I have to agree. For what it is it looks okay. So far.

I don't, but nobody says I would have to use it. I like seeing the Type II.

Can anyone say cheddar?

After updating the graphics it can almost look the same as this:

Though I'm honestly not sure what to think about it....on one hand I can say it might not be that bad after playing Battlestar Galactica Online (which is browser based), it seemed to have okish graphics for being flash based. On the other hand all I can think about it the huge step backwards Ubi have taken while creating this "thing"...it seems that they have taken their eye off of a true subsim and turned it into a button spamming arcade shoot em up.

Definitively not for me...

And did you noticed that Ubi themself don't believe in it... They programed a german robot to do the speach ^^

Seriously, the ONLY good point of SH5 was the free moving inside the sub... Now, this is not a "set back" it is "the most outrageous setback"... Even without the free moving SH3 and 4 are way much better.

I reserve judgement until I've played it, personally I'm optimistic.

It looks good...for a 90's arcade game

If it looks like crap and smells like crap, it probably is crap... or maybe the new silent hunter online game from UBI. It never ceases to amaze me how UBI manages to find new ways to foul up a game.
