Playfuls.com new SH4 dev video interview - Page 6

BellJack95 · 03-13-07, 11:29 AM

After viewing this latest developer interview, I am fired up and it will be difficult to be patient for the mailman to deliver my pre-ordered copy of the game into my eager hands. I agree with some other posted comments that there will most likely need to be a patch or two to tweak issues in the game and also I look forward to some upcoming, no doubt outstanding, mods created by the gifted modding community to add additional punch to the game.

I am definately looking forward to spending all my upcoming spare time commanding a US submarine in the Pacific in the dynamic campaign.

Save the ranting for when you've actually played the game. Only then can you give it a fair evaluation.

Anyone notice the effect when the Virtual Camera leaves the water; how the water runs off the screen?

At the bottom of my post you probably did not read, for I did say I found it on the Windows new media player and it was awsome. After finding it on WMP I replayed those scenes five times and never got really good resolution on that particular object.

That fish or whatever I had the small hand with finger pointing to was not a persons name in MP and at times there were two, then three of the said possible fish. Maybe it was not anything to do with the game for even with fairly good resolution in media player this thing was allways a blur because of how the Dev was moving the 'Ship Camera'.

Did you not read Neals post after mine ?

Well whatever it was will keep my curiosity up till I get ahold of the Sim and then I'm takeing along my fishing gear just in case.

Whatever

"and here we see that the target is at 500m"...

Metres! Yikes! US Subs and Meters!

I hope there is an option for a more authenitic Imperial System...Yards!

But in all the previews i read and watch I only see them mentioning meters.....

It's been stated elsewhere that you get to choose.

Really? you did not read my post above yours and then read post #15 in that thread. I believe thats pretty offical.

This is pure speculation on my part, but the Adversarial Mode may be the hook into a DC2. It is a basic interface to control ship elements in the the game. You can issue commands to these ships, manage an attack. There is feedback to the escort commander by way of blue sonar bearing lines. This covers the basic inputs/outputs needed to interface two games. DC2 would be a filled out Adversarial mode plus extra DD stuff to do.
