the most important argument for wolfpacks is: they distract the destroyers for you. it should be possible to attack convoys with 8 destroyers, we will have huge battles with huge convoys.

I hope I am wrong , but Unfortunately the graphics of the new SH5 dont seems to be at a state of the arts degree , looks like very similar to SH4 , and as a already usual feature for the Silent Hunter series is the total lack of Dynamic Shadows

Too early to judge. We've only seen like no more than 5-6 actual in-game pics from an unfinished build. Wait until we have 100 in-game screenshots, and then you'll all be able to complain how not state-of-the-art the shadows are. And even then, the shadows don't worry me, the textures will probably be easily fixed by any nice modder as will be sounds if they're not to your liking either... in any way, we'll sure get a nice sim!


But please stop poking holes at it! It is unfinished, and we have close to no real information... wait till we get the real deal. You don't want the devs all burnt because of useless pressure on them in the early stages. Just be supportive, it will be best for all, including the devs who'd be able to work more happily, I'm sure it's about enough pressures having their bosses looking over their shoulders pressuring them about both quality and development time.

Cheers

Quoted for truth.

I guess the lack of real information has sent everyone scrutinizing over the minutiae of what we do have and unfairly judging the finished product by it.

This is what people are doing with SH5:



"I'm not living THERE! It doesn't even have walls! And I hate the carpet! And the kitchen appliances don't work!"

I looked some opinion that the graphic of water in SH5 is bad...
But please remember, that graphic in this game -not important- and is maybe... only THIRD issue...

The FIRST point, more important than "graphic" is: PLAYABLITY for single and multimode users.
The SECOND is: BUGS FREE

LOL, I knew it had to have some kind of meaningful function.
