What about SH4 improvements that really count?

I grew to love Pre atomic submersible warfare twenty years ago almost
by playing silent service and reading Undersea victory as my first text
on the subject as a History book it had the virtue of reading better than
most fiction. However I became enthralled with the subject and both
Campaigns were Incredibly titanic. Gargantuan efforts

the whole thing is incredible to discover and Although I started On the
american campaign I cant limit myself to just it. The story of the
Battle of the Atlantic is amazing as a subject unto itself also

thats what makes the whole study of early submarine warfare so good
the wealth and richness and depth of it. there are so many aspects
that influenced the outcomes of the Three major strategic sub campaigns
of History.


in short.

SH5 should have Alled and Axis Driveable subs and surface ships
AI subs and surface ships and be available from 1937 from 1946
World wide with US, UK, Cdn,Italian,French, German, Russian, Japanese
Chinese,Brazilian, and other Home playable combatant
countries this would be a plus for Ubi
as it would only have to pay for one dev to cover the both markets
Destroyer guys and sub guys. doubling sales and lowering overhead
and it would pull the genre out of
enland and make it a Global game, Further Campaigning online
would be much improved. including built in VOIP interceptable
radio.
with an SDK released as the gold edition bonus prize.
player and AI weaps should be interchangeable
Torpedo bombers are essetnial.

wadda ya think.....................................

[edit] ooopps I forgot to include the flyboys.
That would be cool online a player captain of a carrier ordering
a player pilot off the deck to respond to a player sub spotted
by an ai convoy and player frigates detaching to the contact.

yeah I can see it now!.
