But what I'd like to do, is sit back and enjoy the riding through the waves for a while. Was possible in SH3 and SHIV, so what about V?

I really hope the Devs will fix this, I miss this feature big time

Yep. One could argue that it isn't a huge thing. But for a player like me, who just loves to adore his boat and kick in some good vibes from the gramaphone, it makes quite a difference.

Grammaphone at sunset see the bow plowing through the waves, it gets me in a mood I can´t explain

So, to sum in up...
In SH3, external camera worked for ships and planes, but crashed on land units.
In SH4, it lost ability to track planes and worked only for ships.
In SH5, it's messed even for ships.
This is how the series "evolved"

I just bought this today and you have got to be kidding me?!! For me this is just basic to any game to be able to view the person or object you are simulating!! This is a joke right? I find it impossible to believe that in a 3D game in 2010, you cannot look at the object you are in.

Jokes aside, please, what is the key to view my sub? Or just any other object?

SNACKO,

Just click the circle in the upper left hand corner it clicks to an outside camera. Hope that helps.

The game is pretty nice once you add some of the old mods that made SH3 and SH4 the great games they were.

I don't remember how SH3 was, but I imagine that it would be nice to be able to goto external camera, and then press a hotkey for simply parenting the camera to the uboat's horisontal movement. Like a toggle, on and off.

Then I imagine that one would be free to move the now parented camera around, allowing to change its position yet still following the movement of the uboat.
