Be grateful it's only a game. In real life you would go exactly where you were told, or you would go to prison. That's why I like the options for the lesser boats - sometimes life just sucks.

Unless they decide it's wartime and the correct answer is to shoot you instead.

Then again, since it is only a game and I can't get hurt, I like taking the trash machines. It's more fun that bragging that I sank a million tons.

Yep... Imagine that.

I would pack my bags and run away beforehand. Dont care where i live, but being sent to "kill or be killed" by some dumb politician... never.

Makes me appreciate our Peace.

Kretschmer started the war in a IIB. If its good enough for him, it's good enough for me.

So based on Mikhayl's original intention on this poll, most think that:
1. A single detailed sub is sh!thouse.
2. More sh!tty subs would be nirvana.

What i am saying is that SH5 should have at least type 2/7/9 . The level of detail that you can see in the screenshot of the engine room is fine .

I expect they will at have the II, VII and IX at the minimum.

Honestly - if I don't land my D2 I am seriously not going to be happy. The VII was a sports car to that truck, but in it you have the range and firepower to really ruin a convoy's day.

The key here is that most players of SH3 loved the VII as the best, and it was historically the most numerous. But each player has their own preferences, and taking OUT boats from the series can only be seen as a step backwards for the franchise.

I know it's way too late and could have been better explained from the start, but when I say "one quality sub", it's not just graphical quality but also how the sub behaves, physics, damage model, all this kind of details.

Now maybe in reality we'll have one so-so sub or several super quality subs, dunno, but I was interested to see whether subsimmers would take quality over quantity or vice versa. Study sim vs Survey sim (didn't know those terms).
