Silent Hunter 6 Manual (fictional)

Some great ideas in that

The problem is that we all have ideas of what the "perfect" SH6 game should be.

It is guaranteed that what I think we should have would include stuff that others would not care about just like this list as stuff I don't care about.

It would be cool if in the future video game programming could be modular and automated. The customer could pick and choose among features (and the cost of the features) and "design" their own game. Submit that to the company and they plug in the different modular components.

As Catfish said, lots of great Ideas there. With the advancement in computers and multi core systems, I think a lot could be done to make the gameplay immersive and realistic. As a number of people here have said, Ubi probably won't make a SH6 since that genre will only cater to a small number of people. I think there are a lot of people that would play something you just described so in that way, I don't think it's cost prohibitive. Ubi like any company has a bottom line and will put their efforts where they can make the most money in sales with the least amount of effort. Many were rightfully disappointed that Ubi put out half finished programs that others made great efforts to repair and upgrade the initial problems. At least, Ubi gave us a fairly decent program from which to work.

That doesn't mean another company won't read what you and probably a great number of others have written and decide there is a market for the simulation you described. We can only hope we have something like that someday. Either way, you have some great ideas for the next generation Sim.

I was so excited to read it in the main page that I thought finally SH6 is a reality and then very sad to know it was my post.

So far. I have faith.

I just hope Ubi and Sonalyst read this...

"WWII Alternative Campaign:

-Here the Axis and Japanese forces may surrender...or not! The Allies might loose the war by the end of 1945 if the game chooses. Pearl Harbor is attacked before 1941! Anything might happen to change the real timeline."

this is exactly the dynamic campaign I have been hoping for !!!
