New SH5 Mods

Exactly. The serious work never begins until after the last official patch is released, and the game has been consolidated. Doesn't mean anything done before is wasted of course, but it's when modders really let their hair down knowing that they don't have to continually rework their work. I remember having these exact discussions with Beery (RuB) back in SH3 days. Likewise, I didn't really "explore" SH3Cmdr until the last patch was well bedded down.

And this time, modders have to consider the possibility that Ubisoft will issue add-ons. I suspect modders may be a bit more reluctant to add new U-boats (if indeed they can) or extend the campaign if there's murmurs that Ubisoft will do it for them "a few months down the track". No-one likes seeing their hard work wasted, especially when it takes so long to do it!
