A new SHO film - engaging a convoy

This game will propably draw a lot more people to the silent hunter franchise.

It's a game in line of online games like: world of tanks and world of airplanes.

I don't think it's really meant to be for us.

Oh, I would happily take a silent hunter like either o those. F2P is fine by me. However, SHO is browser based, unlike WOT and WOWarplanes. This severely limits what the debs can do. (Resulting in that tiny rendr of the world through the periscope). Many an excellent series that had fallen out of mainstream favor has been revived by an infusion of F2Pers into the franchise. But all examples of such things I can think of have been downloadable clients.

What I see in that trailer doesnt impress me.
Cant feel any adrenaline in the process.
The ability, or rather necessity, to switch between different subs totally distorces/destroys/denies the feeling of being in command of an u-boot.

Looking ahead, I like to think they've got a marketing strategy that aims at something more coinvolging.
For example different players command theyr own sub in a wolfpack, with ww2 simulated transmission capabilities between the subs.

Sonalyst, with Dangerous Waters multiplayer modus, is an example:
- multimanned subs
- multiple multimanned subs
- simulated "realistic resembling" communication capabilities between the subs
- intensive concentration and skill requirements (no time to look away), be it on sonar station, on TMA station or on control (exception: weapons station).

If SHO reaches a similar level of detail, in the future, it would probably become a masterwork!

As a passionate sub-simulators player I try to defend and promote who seriously works on them, as long as it is not total crap!
