And since SHV did not do very well on launch (as far as I know), I am not surprised that support has been terminated

While I agree with everything you've said here I always thought the Silent Hunter gaming community stemmed from the ever growing desire for true sub simulators.
Meaning us!! I never thought of Silent Hunter at least the later versions as being something for the masses but more a specialized build for the elite looking for a true wartime submarine experience.
Sad to think it's being bundled in with so many of the failed projects out there. It has so much potential.
I guess now as in the past it's up to the true believers to make it what it should have been.

At least my Silent Hunter 4 hasn't disappointed me. Lots and lots of enjoyable patrols.
