From what I've read on these forums over the years, I'm pretty sure if SHV only added working wolfpacks to the mix, it'll sell like the proverbial hotcakes.

Agreed

I believe there will be a SHV....but have no idea what it'll be representative of. Perhaps after the SS 2008 meeting we'll have a better idea

Personally, I'd like to see a role reversal game released. Commanding hunter killer groups of WWII naval vessels hunting U-boats

Yeah, that's the area that 2002's Destroyer Command covered. A follow-up is long overdue. Multiplayer between escorts and subs, if done correctly would be quite the draw.

that would be great especially if it were a dedicated in depth anti-submarine simulator.

A anti-sub sim where you really have to use the sonar and hydrophones to detect and locate the sub

I liked DC but it was rather shallow, no pun intended

Using the hydrophones and sonar is cool, and I wouldn't want to lose it, but on the other hand the captain is on the bridge and has to work from there.

Don't get me wrong; I'd like to have it both ways.

Don't you think that if someone was developing a new subsim or a next generation SHIII /SH4 we would have heard something?

This is just a question that regularly keeps popping up on this forum. I'm guessing people are hankering always for the 'next gen' version. Human nature. Two months after a SHV release, they'll be needling about SHVI.

You mean you haven't heard the rumours
