what SH5 needs

BigBANGtheory · 12-29-10, 04:06 AM

I think SH5 needs to be re-evaluated as things have moved on quite a bit from v1.2 and there seems to be a lot of misinformation floating about.

The megamod release would seem the most logical time to do that, with the following objectives:

1. Overall rating of SH5 v1.2 + MegaMod
2. What is still considered broken?
3. What is still considered to be a weakness or poor implementation requiring improvement?

Where is the dining room on the boot? AFAIK We already have it, its just folded away and now being used as a bunk/chart table.

Type ix u-boats,don"t forget those!

As far as adding detail, and changing things to be more historically accurate for the interior, you can try my interior mod V1.2. It does not add any missing parts of the boat, but it does a lot of other stuff.

The only thing keeping me from playing is the lack of merchant ship variety.

Not me! I only put together a few portraits for SH3 commander.

The real war saw German aircraft used to scout for targets. This is only simulated, I guess, by the radio contact reports. We never know where they come from.

If a mod could simulate the way these aircraft were used and indicate when an air contact report was made, it would be good immersion effects.

Internally, get the crew doing stuff, like the visual repair guys in SH4 who turn wrenches to simulate repairs.

Empty those bunks when actions stations called.

Get some folks walking around through the sub, doing things or carrying stuff.

well...any sub sim that requires sinking 100.000 tons in the first six months of war is simply ridiculous

so sh5 is simply ridiculous compared to sh3 and sh4 with their megamods
