Oh, I'm well aware of that beautiful game! But its been designed for the casual gamer and doesn't truly get into the details.
I'm saying that rather than an RTS, we need an actual simulator!

back to topic guys.

there was the information, development of sh5 would start after ubisoft finished hawx. this has been released weeks ago, but theres still no info on sh5...

suggestions? anyone?

It might be too early to say anything yet.

No point in releasing details if there isn't much to tell yet.

Great game, I've been of the Total War Series since the inception (Shogun), but you absolutely have to have a killer gaming rig to enjoy it to its potential. I'm having a tough time managing my self-imposed "gaming time-allocation" having to choose between ETW and SH4 now that I made my return to it.

Totally agree. I remeber doing this in ''Enigma Rising Tide'' when commanding the destroyers you had to protect the convoy I can't remeber though if i played this way during the campaign or single missions or was it one of the mods i had download back then (many years ago now) It was great though, you would have a convoy of say 12 ships and couple of destroyers protecting them you took command of one and waited for the wolves to strike. At times it was hectic their did be a sub ahead of the convoy so your speed up ahead to go to depth charge it & spend a good 5-10min dropping DC's only for another sub to be behind the convoy or to its sides so of you go giving chase, and when you lost a ship it was serious!. Losing a ship was not good to my ego

No other game has come close to the thrill of protecting your convoy.

In fact now that i mentioned it i think i will go look for the cd somewhere gathering dust and reinstall this game.

I think I'd have one problem with a modern/ coldwar one is that they could stay underwater for so long at a depth where the surface would have no effect, if there isn't many other subs around you might aswell be invincible. Unless theres a russian campaign reactor malfunctions and all, that and there would be absolutely no room for any fraction of error. The weapons would take everythng out in one hit, with devastatingly massive explosions. I think it strays to far away from the idea of a silent hunter (who stalks and runs when necessary, and uses extreme cunning to escape).

Ok! Let's get down to business. You know something and we know you know something. So how much will it take to get it out of you?

Lorient Bunker · 04-29-09, 09:49 PM

Ok I'm getting a little concerned now, there's no mention of Silent Hunter 5 in the following document released today...

http://www.ubisoftgroup.com/gallery_.../1042/1967.pdf

Now I'm sure they're still working on the game, but to me this info says that it's not going to be out this year.
