But Silent Hunter Online will have a beta. Beta is only to test the game and search for bugs. So if there is a beta for this game they will fix the bugs.

How is the kool-aid?

or am I crazy or are they.

Maybe UBI will release a game that is, you know, entertaining? MS Flight failed hard because there literally is nothing to do in the game but fly over a lifeless, static Hawaii.

You know whats the worst thing about silenthunteronlineblahblablah game?

Our talented modders cannot fix it

Julhelm · 05-01-12, 02:33 PM

How do you know they'd have to?

andwii · 05-01-12, 03:07 PM

exactly. I am with holding judgment and im hoping to get into the beta. I for one think its a cool concept that our collective efforts will change the war in our favor (so says ubi).

Thanks, but I guess I will pass on this. Hope it works out, though, and people like it.

With a bit of luck there is one thing that may happen with this type of silent hunter game. They may expand it over time if the initial game is judged a success. We may finally get British U, S, and T class subs in the Mediteranean as well as Jap I type boats in the Pacific, not to mention other senarios. Anyone fancy attacking Tirpitz in an X craft? Lets play it first and see, it will be a new experience for me as I don't own a console and have not played online games. I cannot see the point of them, any fool can aim the sight and pull the trigger, our sub sims are so much more than that. The screen shots look good, lets play it and then praise or condem whichever is correct.

awesome trailer graphics... that should be in the next sh game graphics

anything less would probly be dissapointing

allthough I think a mpgame with no ports just a convoy, u boats, and destoyers get to command merchants,subs or drop dc's from destoyers on your buddys

would be ok

tonschk · 05-02-12, 04:01 PM

I agree

There seems to be quite a disconnect between the "trailer graphics" and what is visible in the actual periscope shown in the still images. I hope it's not just a render for advertising purposes.

Stormfly · 05-02-12, 06:11 PM

Flash 11 seams to be bull****, not capable rendering 3D interrior ? (just kidding, but shame on you UBI)

...the community demand a second "Destroyer Command" (what was aviable for SH2) for beeing able fighting each other, if they manage to combine a MMO with full 3D support and pilotable surface vessels (human DD´s protecting a convoy) maybe also other ships like cruisers or BB`s, in a realistic sim (not a housewive like "casualator"), it could grow to a real winner...

APB Reloaded has been a financial disaster. I'm not sure how you can call that a success. Furthermore your whole beta argument is insane. All UBisoft products go through internal beta. The issue is UBIsoft executives didn't give a crap to allow the Romanian developers to finish the game. All a UBIexec has to do is visit this forum for 10 minutes, laugh at how angst ridden we all are while he pockets another million dollar bonus.

Sadly, the state of the industry for large publishers is narrowing your options. I wish CoD would suddenly go out of vogue so Activision could collapse under its annihilation of diversity in gaming. Instead the Activision model is a beacon to the likes of EA to narrow and dump anything different or interesting.

The trailer graphics is just trailer graphics. You wont see it in the game. Flash 3D molelhill API wont be able to support it. When you look at the screenshot (the one with periscope) you can see how the actual 3D ocean looks like. Its gonna be SH3 and probably there wont be any 3D interiors. I bet that you only see screenshots of interiors overlayed with chatroom and "push of a button" fireing solutions.

Correct - boys, did you forget the "real game footage" from SH5 trailer?
Now it looks like trailer SHO is done by SH5 'photoshopped' engine.
I don't know about you, but I'm waiting for gameplay only.

But... WTF is this??? Guilds? Trade???

Well haven't you ever heard about the infamous Atlantic Wolves guild.

This only shows how flawed the game really is. Why do we have to have guilds? Its not a fantasy mmo. Just imagine if EvE online had guilds instead of corporations

Since guild is a basically a group then why don't they just call it "Wolfpack"

For me this only shows one thing. The developers do not care. There gonna go with the name "guild" because thats what kiddies know. They are just gonna take SH franchise and slap it on a Farmville simulator. Thats all.

It is business. It is all about the money because UBI will never do a SH6 and they do not want to waste a good name.

This is the final rape action against the franchise and then we will never see it again.
And when you tell your friends that you are Silent Hunter player they will automatically think that you are playing that silly online kiddy game.
