SH5 should enhance what we we already have and that is a great game already . cheers . oh and it should include some dx10 enhancements .
I'm just afraid, within present "engine", it would be :
Start game loading on Friday night... so that you can play Saturday afternoon

Keep in mind that HardDisc is the only piece of hardware that didn't make significant speed progress... since realease day of SH3.

What a lousy idea! What? You want 'em to actually learn something? That is a perfect example of why we let professionals not educate our children.

Yes I'd love a DC2 as well but merged with "Task Force 1942" rather than "Fighting steel" which I thought had a terrible interface.
Well yes, I'll give you that. I guess I just got used to the interface. I did however like the way Fighting Steel set up engagements, and the fact that if you did a non-historical campaign, you got to see those big guns in action. I remember my USN campaign and having my one of my US battleships verse two or three IJN cruisers. Sometimes I won, sometimes I fought valiantly, but didn't make it ... good times.

Oh and I will say the soundtrack to Fighting Steel was PERFECT. Just the music made me think of battle-wagons rolling in rough sees during a battle. DC had a pretty good theme as well, IMO.

The German Magazine "GameStar" just posted some News on SH5 on their Site.

Here is the link http://gamestar.de/news/pc/action/si..._hunter_5.html

The news says that "Erdei Jacint" Ubisoft PR Manager of Ubisoft Romania said on an Interview about the Release of Brothers in Arms Hells Highway that Ubisoft will announce the 5th Part of a "famous Simulation Series" after the release of HAWX.

"Zum Release des Taktik-Shooters Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway in Rumänien führte die Webseite theGameCast ein Interview mit dem dortigen PR-Manager von Ubisoft, Erdei Jacint. Dieser erklärte, dass nach der Fertigstellung von H.A.W.X. - entwickelt von Ubisoft Rumänien - ein fünfter Teil einer beliebten Simulationsreihe anstehe. Mehr könne er allerdings nicht sagen."

They've probably just noticed the 2008 SS Meet threads

Default 'Silent Hunter 5' Revealed

During a Brothers in Arms launch event in Romania theGameCast interviewed Ubisoft Romania's PR who revealed that after completing Tom Clany's H.A.W.X. the studio is going to work on "the fifth part of a very popular Ubisoft series, a simulators one." Ubisoft Romania has previously worked on Silent Hunter 3 and 4, and being only simulator in their portfolio it is safe to assume a fifth installment in the submarine simulation franchise is coming. http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=56871

No. I. Let's view it in an objective way - What do we, most of us expect from the sequel of a subsim by UBISOFT regardless in which ages it is.

1) better visual experience, higher level of graphics closer to photorealism
2) Better game engine
3) More historically authentic battles, events, tools, persons etc.
4) Emotionally touching accomplishment of all above

If my list is incomplete, feel free to add more aspects.

No. II Let's view it in the software developer company's respect:

1) the better tangible interest and solvent market demand, the higher turnover and revenue. Target audience is mainly U.S., China and finally Western Europe.
2) Emotionally touching, passionate theme and accomplishment of battles

to be continued...
