Ah yes, the heady aroma of unwashed men, fear, and vomit. I'm sold!

Don't forget the diesel fumes, permeating your clothes, your hair, your skin...

Your wife will be so grateful.

When I was most active at Subclub and playing Destroyer Command through mIRC against player who had SHII I told the others about this VR and I could very well see a future subgame played through VR

Then, can remember his alias, said wow imagine getting a blank screen.

SH5 is the first step to wards this-Walking around your sub talk to your crew give them orders and stand on the bridge

Of topic

If you are really handy you could make it 4D somehow-when you are standing on the bridge and the bow crush a wave sending a shower of water to wards you and your watch-crew in the VR game-you could create some technical stuff in your home so there will be thrown water against your face and torso.


My mouse cheated on me, was about to mark the NO-then the cursor jumped and I pressed the Yes I have-which is incorrect.

Wouldn't mind giving it a go but not until prices come down to a sensible level.
