Default Is there a new Periscope in SH5



Will we have a 3D Perscop or will we need to use the F5 (2D view)

I'm not sure what a 3D periscope view should look like. Can someone enlighten me?

That would mean that while you're looking through the scope your view is still "attached" to your man inside the boat. So that, for example, nudging your view to the right would seamlessly go from looking through the scope, to looking at the interior of the boat. Nudging back to the left would show you the view through the scope again.
Obviously the scope itself would need to operate on a second set of controls. It'd be a nice devlopment if it were possible.

yeah i thought of this idea myself. It would be more realistic because you could watch the instruments in the 3-d u-boats insted of reading them 2-d

From a simulation point of view, everything about that screenshot is positively criminal.

I think what they're going for with this interface is not to notice one in the first place. Because I'm assuming the emphasis in on the interactive 3D boat instead.
So when you step up the periscope view, there shouldn't be a noticeable interface, hence the minimalistic and simplified look.
After some time of playing, it might be a very effective 'illusion' and very immersive, we'll know soon enough.

I think you've misunderstood my meaning. I like the very simplified look, without all the Zeiss writing and handles and etc. What I don't like is the map and all the rest.

Maybe this is ok with the periscope, a mixed thing, but when I see it
turns me around the stomach.

The old version of Sh3 created something historic,
but this reminds me of a Playstation and not a submarine simulation.
We all want a U-simulation, the outdoor scenes, such as water and Effects
are MAGIC all well and good but here in the interior operatives take me , i can not find the words ,
Here we build just the opposite for .. at least visually, from the Engin is definitely a highlight.
Therefore, swirl the feelings of the fans between history and Pandemonium ().
