Cripes next thing you know they will have a 'social' websites with accomplishments and 'rewards'.

Naw keep the goofy acheivments and deliver a solid core game please.

I don't see it as goofy or arcadish. It's not something I'd want, but if it was there it would be fun to try once. Méo mentioned the biggest problem, that of modeling the interior. Also of course the developers' time is filled with trying to get the thing done on time with what they already have.

The best solution would be for them to leave slots for extra types to be added, and to make it free enough that modders could build things like that. As for 'unlocking' and 'rewards'? That does sound a little to gamey for me. Just make it so people can add what they want and make special missions for them and I'm all for it, whether I use it or not.

I like the idea of leaving "expansion" slots for user made boats.

The U-cruiser sounds fun. A sort of "what if" Which in itself is not a game killer.

Honestly I don't understand when people freak out about inclusions of proposed vessels, such as the walter boat. The type XVIII was a probability, and would have had a profound effect on the course of the war.

I would like the inclusion of all boats that saw service, as well as later in the war having some "super boats" available, for high tonnage captains.

Meh, if the game allows extra boats to be added then I wouldn't care if Mush Martin brought back his Uberboot - would make no difference to me because I simply wouldn't install it.

Besides, I know the "realism" mods will remain true...

Having such stuff as "unlockable achievements" though?
