This game would be awesome with Oculus Rift.

Thanks Onkel

Tried to reply to your email, but it bounced, delivery failure, indicating the message was blocked.

Without sounding negative or a stick in the mud, let's hope they don't end up like Danger from the Deep, another promising wartime sub sim with good graphics and functionality, ending up in dead water since 2011, excuse the pun.

I'll definitely keep my eye on this one.

I wonder why they chose to do a swedish sub instead of a uboat?

A uboat might attract more attention imo.

We think so as well

VR-support is actually in out stretch goals.

I took the demo out for a ride. Great run. However, I noticed the batteries have a total life of less than 10000 seconds, or 167 minutes. That should be adjusted to survive in the Atlantic.

Consumables are accelerated, because in a MP game, they have to become a factor quickly enough to have an impact on gameplay decisions.

So how would you run any campaign then? I assume that contact with a group of targets will be set up to happen almost immediately. There could be no prolonged convoy attacks, or any sort of search required.

I guess a MP game would likely take no more than four hours. Could a game be saved on the host PC? Maybe just position, fuel & ammo status, to be continued in a campaign game?

I'm not expecting Silent Hunter, but the "audience" has been enjoying such great gameplay in that series that replay value and continuity is almost expected.
