So i still maintain my observation. If das boat was never made, i really dont think the atlantic would be as popular as it is here. In all truthfulness, if i hadnt read the amount of material i did years ago, i wouldnt have an iota of intrest in the pacific theater either. Not everyone reads up like that, and a movie is much easier to absorb.
Lol, methinks you've been the one with the defensive postings in the SH3 forum mate... typically complaining about how you are so tired of the ETO stuff... but it really doesn't matter. I think more people found out about the movie Das Boot after getting SH3 and coming here.

I think that if anything... Das Boot "solidified" some players after they got the game... not the other way round.

Yes, I am telling you that I feel that in this case, I don't think "a movie" had anything to do with the initial draw of the U-boats / players drawn to SH3.

Speculation on such things is really pointless anyway.

Florin Boitor said it himself when they were deciding whether SH3 would be ETO or PTO. "U-boats are simply the fattest subject." Decision made.
