i dont care what machine, what computer, what device you are working with - there is always some way to boost the performance beyond "factory limitation" which is the exact language the ubi web site used.

I'm confident that this will only be effective for a short period of time... im also quite confident that it will not involve "magic" and that it will ultimately result in a gain of only one or two extra knots.

you wont see your Type VIIA cutting wake at 35 knots.

OK, a $10 donation to subsim is fine by me.

If ubisoft explain what it is that makes the engines go faster and how it
was possible during the war (and thus no magic is required); you win.

If ubisoft don't explain what makes the engines go faster and/or it wasn't
possible during the war (and so it must be magic); I win.

If the feature isn't in SHV; it's a draw with no transaction.
