More time to code single player. IMHO multiplayer is a total waste of time. What I'd rather see, instead of online mp, is the programming time spent incorporating AI wolf packs into single player, since it seems like wolfpacking is one of the few reasons (again, IMO) to bother with MP.

Why is it so hard to take a sub model, reskin it as a DD, add a few stations, write in surface only attributes, and then you have DD vs Sub multiplayer?

Making a bug-free, balanced game from the DD point of view would take just as much work as doing the same from the sub's pov. It's hardly a matter of just "reskinning a sub model".

when it comes to multiplayer i think most folks would rather some one some where just released a combined multiplayer only version of SH2 and DC as a new and sorted game with a small hike in graphics if their bored (heck just replace the stock textures with more professionaly drawn ones would do the trick)

would you buy it---course you would --i know i would and i never play on line---which is weird when i come to think of it--:rotfl:


for single player and SH4 i would much rather be dealing with proper AI wolfpacks and reading contact reports from the AI than being called gay by some human "player" with an inferiority complex --

make em use morse code that'll sort 'em out--

Salve sono GV_Darkata, Italiano scusate ma non capisco niente di inglese,quindi meglio che scrivo nella mia lingua, io con il mio clan giochiamo sempre ad sH3 Uman vs Uman (sub vs sub) per avere sempre l'adrenalina a massimo, troviamo noioso affondare nemici che non si possono difendere o difendere male come l'IA dei destroyer. secondo me non ha senso un gioco come shIV sensa multiplayer sarebbe troppo noioso combattere contro l'Ia troppo stupida e prevedibile, e poi volete mettere una bella battaglia sub. Americani vs sub. Tedeschi??

ciao un saluto a tutti e complimenti per il forum.

P.S. se vi state chiedendo come fare a giocare sub. vs sub. venite ogni sera in UBI.COM troverete sempre qualche stanza aperta per giocare e sarete i benbevuti

avevo gia risposto a questa domanda su questo

ciao, e spero che qualcuno possa tradurre

Sorry, but then you shouldn´t post here. At least *try* to write in English, doesn´t matter how bad your grammar is...
