Why is no one making silent hunter 6,

[Sailor Steve]

I think that question was answered long ago in this thread.

I will add a reminder that the Silent Hunter name is owned by Ubisoft. If they're not inclined to make it, then don't expect it. It might be better to ask why no one is making a new sub sim of any name or description.

I would really like to see them actually finish a silent hunter before we see a SH6.

Me, too! Silent Hunter 3 was the best version. This one in a new outfit would be nice.

The sad fact is that there won't be a new Silent Hunter. But there could still be new subsims on the way.

Just my thoughts....

Proof UBI will never finish any Silent Hunter is the fact the UBI's Silent Hunter Forums for SH3, 4, or 5 no longer exist; and there's not been another game patch issued for a long long time. At least as far as I've seen.... the SH series are no longer listed on UBI's website.

With all the mods and super mods made for SH 3, 4, and 5; I'd say an engine to run a simulation is all that's needed. Plus the SH mods already made would need to be able to run on this new gaming engine. Then you could see a new finished U-Boat simulation. But only as long as there's enough $s to pay a crew to make another U-Boat sim. Silent Hunter could not be used for a name, nor any name already copy written or trademarked . But anything not used in referring to the U-Boats could. A lot of work all over again and you'd need the interest in U-Boats that was created with the Silent Hunter series to keep on going. Which I've sure it would. Will it happen? I doubt it due to the costs involved.
