Exactly

Having extra rooms doesn't add anything substantial to the gameplay (other than the "cool" factor) and takes away development time from other features that can be fixed/added/enhanced.

Exactly. I can count on one hand the number of times I visited the captain's bunk in SH3.

Now if we had a captain's bunk like SH1 with a calendar of moon phases, etc, that may be worth it. But putting it in just to have it seems a waste of resources to me!

And that will make the game better how? I would like to see improvements to gameplay,not more useless (To Me) eye candy that we'll look at 2 or 3 times tops.

If they add anything at all it should be more ships...not more compartments.

Rich, you have to be a realist in this respect. Just to get the fixes in a new patch was trials and tribulations.

Rich I'll tell you what - I'd like to see every nook and cranny of the boat modelled, from bow to stern! And not a 3-D image projected onto my 2-D monitor, but something more along the lines of the Holodeck in Star Trek NG. So I can feel the periscope handles under my sweaty palms, and feel the rubber eye-cup pressing against my eye, and smell the reek of my unwashed crew, and when a DC goes off nearby I'm actually knocked off my feet!

But that's not gonna happen, we can only take what we can get and be glad we got it. We've asked for patches, and we've got 2 so far and hopefully a 3rd one is coming. Fixing the systems that don't work is what matters, not getting an extra compartment or 2 that you might look at a couple times then forget about totally.

Hope you won't leave us just because others have disagreed with you.

DH

i hope not.

There are too many important bugs to spend time with new compartments, and it could take a lot of time.

Also, could be not important in gameplay, for example in sh3 stay a lot of time in the captain room looking the bed and doing nothing.
it´s not the case of sh1, where the captain room, in 2d was used for the calendar, recon book, and captain log.

You all know perfectly well its not going to be officialy done...... We had to put pressure on just to get this patch into the works to fix some bugs. Its quite obvious the mods are trying to fix the little bugs ASAP so they can work on other projects

More content for the game will have to come from the community
