The wait will be worth it. You've seen the tip of the iceberg and we only talk openly of a few things that we have completed.

The difference between GW 1.0 and GWX is like comparing night and day.

We aren't going to send her out to sea though until she is ready, no matter how tempted we may be.

Releasing GW 1.0 threw open the doors for like-minded people who aren't afraid to think BIG and do a little hard work. This translates into TIME... and only naturally so... and is why we don't discuss release dates. We are attacking our own work from every direction and trying to break it as we go... This process also takes time and is required if we intend to meet what is expected of us. Everything must be first balanced with everything else.

LOL, throw all the rotten fruit and veggies at us you like... In the end we'll throw them back!!!

Cool was wondering when someone would releate to subs losing and gaining depth,as they reecive depth charges.Will the be any modifications as to being detected on the surface,it is much too easy to be seen at night by escorts(weakest part of game to me)...just one more questioned.


WHENS IT COMING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No rotten fruit just praise and laurels....
All the community appreciates this tremendous effort. As we will not pay with money we should pay with patience.
This mod is practically the equivalent of the famous F4 Falcon reconfiguration by the freeware modders community.

Take all the time you need
With what has already been spoken about GWX and what we have been told will be in GWX. I for one am already blown well away.
Keep up the great work

Running in periscope depth around destroyers will be a thing of the past. If your electric engines are hit, or your battery is very low, you´ll have a very hard time...

Everything sounds fantastic and I hope we will get completely new game, as real as it can be done. Thank you very much.
It's good that you don't respond for forum members questions so nervously as earlier, Kpt.Lehmann. Every forum member simply would like to play GWX the fastest as it's possible. I don't play career in SH3 now, I'm waiting for GWX release. Keep your good work

Well,
The realism fixes sound pretty damn fun to me - I can't wait!! Keep up the fire boys!!

If GWX doesn't sound fun, I think the biggest option is to not download it - and possibly, quite respectfully suggested, get yer head checked.

Regards,
Yarre.

TGW was the single best improvement to the game and it sounds like GWX will take that further ahead perhaps an even bigger leap.

The above sounds so very cool and addresses some things I have been unable to figure and now can stop thinking about.

One point was made about it being too real for some players.
While I am anxious for such an update is there a way to allow for less realism fanatics to get most of GWX without that intensity?
Say no and I personally don’t care give me reality to the enth degree but just a thought!

BTW, don’t wait too long. It might be not in our interest for it to come out near SH4 and be so good we don’t want to transfer to the USN.:rotfl:

:rotfl: :rotfl:
Now that sort of realism isnt everybodies fun but believe me it is playable
As this is supposed to be a sim as well as a game there are compromises
But having said that this is not intended to ba a shoot em up and no one is forcing anybody to use anything they are not comfortable with
The GW team cant be expected to provide individual instals for players who dont like some bits but like others
Give it a try before deciding - if you dont like it well go back to your previous game
Personally I love it and I only started playing the game as a sink em all shooter but as time goes by you need more

I cant wait to try it out. I have slowly started building up the realisim in my game as i go along and learn new bits and pieces. Iam at this moment slowly trying to teach myself manual TDC which is funny and a little stressfull. I just love the feeling of getting totaly imerssed in the game. ( that is till the wife starts shout at me )
