Name that game: What would be a good name for a new U-boat sim? - Page 13

Staberinde · 08-16-09, 11:37 PM

One of the poster's abover mentioned a surface Naval sim rather than a U-Boat sim and I think he's half-way on to something. Anyone who has played WWII sub sims will acknowledge that most of our fun tends to be related to getting into the heads of our surface targets and destroyer and ASW opponents. Opening up destroyer tactics to submariners would be a logical next step for a product... at least some of you would have to admit to finding the idea of turning the tables appealing.
With Silent Hunter, the engine is pretty well rounded and despite its share of bugs, it's a nice, solid base upon which a surface element could be added over the course of a release schedule. Obviously none of this will come to anything, but the idea is nice. Thanks for the open invite to chime in.

Oh and I agree with another poster above... the only and absolutely obvious naming choice is:

Battle of the Atlantic

HardCore Games presents...

24 HOUR WATCH

The most accurate simulation of submarine warfare available today.

* 1X MULTIPLIER only, and you must leave from a dock!
* CRUISE the oceans in realtime for weeks before meeting a contact!
* TEAM UP with your friends to handle the watch while you're sleeping!
* PRAY your computer doesn't crash 2 weeks into your journey!
* SMS alerts to your phone if your crew sights a ship, so you can hurry home and attack!
* REMOTELY order your sub to dive to avoid destruction while you drive back home! (but hurry because you can't level it off remotely! Coming in v1.1)
* NO SAVE for maximum tension during heated battles!
