Because they have to create the entire interior and make the entire crew behave properly for every boat type they make. This takes many months of work for each boat.

- The campaign end in 1943!!

Because they have added so many dynamic elements that there is no way they could finish the whole war in the time they were given.

- Scripted campaigns instead the awesome and the best campaign style (IMO) of SH1, SH3 and SH4?? DIDN'T UBISOFT LEARNED SOMETHING WITH SH2?

What has anyone said that would make you think that? SH1 and SH4 both had scripted elements, such as the photo recon and lifeguard missions. Dan has pointed out that the campaigns you praise were random, but not truly dynamic. This campaign is said to be much more dynamic, in that the enemy AI will be able to react to what you do and change their tactics.

- Ubisoft just lost me as a customer for SH5!!
SH5 will be the only SH game that I will not buy even because Ubisoft will not fool me with SH5 like they did with SH2!!

I'm amazed at how some people can read one word ("scripted") and jump to the conclusion that everything has changed for the worse. Dan has already addressed your complaint, but I guess you were so busy being angry that you missed that part.
