Petition to S.C.S for a SDK

Hope died last .. but mine died already .. :rotfl:
Not that I don't enjoy the game. I just consider it 'old game' like let's say first Tomb Raider.

Since I've posted here and on the SCS boards that no decisions one way or the other have been made on DW future patches, upgrades, or anything else, and I'd let you know when there was a decision, what more can I say at this point?

No decisions have been made. Still. Sonalysts has a lot of projects, and likes to work on stuff that makes money. DW didn't make money. So it's an uphill battle to get the company to finance more work on it, unless we (the game unit) can make a compelling case it will be good for the bottom line.

That said, the game unit likes working on games, so we're listening to this stuff, even if we don't have much response on a day to day basis. I prefer (as a customer myself of SCS and other sims) not to blow happy gas around, and then have to walk it back if harsh economic reality rears its ugly head! (grin)

Sure .. ideas always comes handy. Expectations hardly so. That's what I mean.

Anyway since I can afford not being 'correct' I read Tiger's 'not decided yet' as 'dead for now'.

No, it means "not decided yet" (grin) If it was "dead" I wouldn't be wasting the company's money posting on these boards, would I? (okay, so maybe I would do it on my own time, but you see the point!)

So I guess we can still hold out and wait (and hope) for a Ticonderoga add on then?

I think that would make your money since a lot of DW was done before in Sub Command, but a Ticonderoga would be a ship I'd love to sink my teeth into!

There was one Ticonderoga sim many years back, and I loved that one to death!

Oh, yes. Oh God yes. Or an Arleigh Burke.

Yeah - just give me something with an Aegis radar and a ton of VLS tubes! :p
