Silent Hunter 6

They should fix up SH5 first, but I wouldn't mind seeing Fleet Boats as the next outing (fully modelled interiors anyone?), though I really think the British boats need some attention at some point.

ERPP8 · 05-06-10, 05:08 PM

If Ubisoft didn't completely ignore SHIV I think a lot more of us would be playing it.

This would be awesome:
1. Ubisoft releases a "Fleet Boats in the Atlantic" or something in a stroke of irony
2. Modders change it to be back in the pacific
3. It's like SHIV but a million times better

How 'bout combining all the work done in the series and making Silent Hunter 6 a global naval simulator? Most of the models have already been built. A player could chose a German, American or maybe even Japanese or British Sub? Hell, why not throw in a playable surface vessel too, a sub-chaser or whatever?

this seems the obvious choice the american market (paciffic war) would be the big money spinner for ubi,im no software developer, but im sure after all the hard work that went into SH3 SH4 it must be easy for ubisoft to throw all the codes into a box and sell it,this sounds familiar

isnt that what they did with SH5, and we bought it,why they never capitalised on sh2 and destroyer command i will never know

its no good buying the name of something if its no good

anyway i agree with whats already been said

Silent Hunter Six?

Dont even start

To be entirely honest, I doubt there will be a Silent Hunter 6, at least not by UBI anyway.

I know someone who works in the games industry, who told me the other week that the SHV sales have been rather poor. I imagine they reserved the domain names years ago incase they needed them.

If, there ever is another SH game, I'd like to see it from a totally new perspective - Like playing as the Japanese, or the English!!

silent hunter 4 with all the latest mods is the epic of subsims. You can get whatever you want almost. You can start a career in the atlantic and then go to the pacific if you'd like without having to play a different game. If they made SH6 they would have to make it live up to the expansion capabilities of SH4. Currently sh5 is not doing this by any means.. As we speak they are making ww1, surface ship, and japan based campaigns for SH4 the expansion is endless....Alot of people R real upset about Sh5 and its DRM. Even me a die hard fan I refuse to buy it untill its fixed, or I can find a way around the DRM. So in closing if Sh6 has any crap like DRm sh4 will live forever with only the graphics becoming out dated i believe.

if people dont buy sh5 because of DRM UBI will and probably have allready lost money and wont make a sh6..

time will tell but as of today I dont see SH6..

Hmmm.. ok maybe somone else should take the helm...like EA or Infinity Ward...

mookiemookie · 05-06-10, 06:25 PM

No more Ubisoft SH titles, please. They've driven the series into the ground.

DaDeathProject · 04-17-12, 03:42 PM

I too have dreamed of a WW2 navy sim game. Sounds like too high of hopes to me. Oh well. I do wish for a better SH with number 6.

There are some aspects of 5 I like but others I don't. Perhaps take the fun of SH4 with some good stuff from SH5 (depends what one defines good and if there is any) then you might have SH6

Takeda Shingen · 04-17-12, 04:00 PM

Don't want to squash any discussion, but the SH team has been dismantled and most, if not all of the devs have moved on to other companies. There will not be a Silent Hunter 6. There are also no submarine simulators in development, consideration or being discussed in any manner by any professional developers. If there is going to be a new sub sim released anytime in the forseeable future, it will have to come from the enthusiasts themselves.

Ah hmm... don't you mean the British... old boy!

It is truly sad that a major Publisher like Ubisoft seems to have learned nothing in the five years since Silent Hunter III.

They threw Silent Hunter III onto the market as an unfinished, buggy mess that took 4 patches, a lot of modding, and over a year to fix. Silent Hunter IV was in a similar, some would say worse state, and now we have Silent Hunter V.

I think Rascal Flatts said it best......

God blessed the broken code
That led me straight to you

I vote for WWII Pacific Theater. Perhaps add Dutch, British and even Japanese Campaigns and everything that would entail and work towards even more authentic simulation including graphic, and more intense AI!
However I wouldn't object to a Seawolf SSN 21 sort of scenario. Don't particularly care for the sonar scope scenario but I used to love running all over the ocean from enemy torpedoes and firing everything at anything that moved!
