SH5 being a new version of the ATO, IMHO it should contain more types and versions than we saw earlier, and all technology should be present, correct and work properly... I expect nothing less...

I´m 100 percent with you, Carotio!

Take the IX D2 model from SH IV Uboat Missions, for example. It´s a lot more detailed and closer to the real one than the model in SH III has ever been.
I expect that level of detail and historical correctness from SH V!

At the least there should be no "slot" limit on the number of playable u-boats as there is with SH3. Sure, provide only the main ones with the game on release, but code it in a way that allows modellers here to add as many new u-boat types as they wish; it's been a stock feature of popular flight sims for many years.

You know -We dont ACTUALLY even know for sure that its just Uboats yet, That's all that has been announced / released so far, but who knows what other cards they still keeping close to their chest?
Until they release more info, im keeping an open mind.

(edit - good point Jaeson ^^)

I agree with what Ju_88 said above, its too early to tell if SH5 is limited to U boat only. I mean what if they also reveal an additional surprises where we can also operate other nation's submarine, such as USN, RN, IJN, or other nation's navy submarines. Lets see if they actually have a surprises for us when time come.




Chaoic out...

It would also be one hell of a bonus if a few new types from other countries not previously seen in SH were introduced and were playable.

I agree. Three or four well done boats are enought. Let modders work.

Somebody of SH5 dev team told that allied subs will be available too.
But the question: what types of allied submarines?

This question will have answer in next week, after SH5 dev team / SUBSIM meeting.

I agree, but only if UBI release a SDK for silent hunter. Come on, Silent Hunter is hard to modding models. I not expect a "total full realism" Uboats models, it the new first person view. My opinion: The same uboat types present on SH3 on SH5 do not is reason for poor quality. I wait 2011 for a product with good quality.

Knowing there are limitations in developing time, money, computer limitations, I would prefer one U-boat well done and a good, really good game to back it up.

Instead of two boats I'd prefer two cooks asking me about the soup

I expect the same. SH3 have varius uboat types (making all people happy). SH4 US side make the same, but UBM... God? Thanks for create modders!

All same Uboats of SH3 and technology. Is the minimun expect from SH5.

Though this may not reflect the majority of posters here, I'd love to see a milk cow. It wouldn't be just another u-boat, but one that would open for a new type of gameplay, in which you set up shop in your assigned area, contacted u-boats and went to meet them, for then to sit like a sitting duck while resupplies were being taken care of.

Just II, VII, IX and a milk cow would be more than enough for me. Oh, and perhaps a "super sub" like the XXI or whatever it was called from SHIII.
