Default British T Boat?

Is there any way to make the Trafalgar SSN playable? :hmm:

Only if SCS decides to make a Trafalgar SSN expansion for DW.

Since it appears that DW is well on its way to becoming abandonware, I wouldn't be surprised if some enterprising soul creates any number of playables.

We'll find out just how abandoned it is by the speed of Jamie's reply to such a transparent taunt. :rotfl: :rotfl:

cheers, jsteed

from my perspective as a good saleman the following is not good

advertisement and promotion: not much known about this game in the outer world i knew nothing about dangerous waters untill i came to subsim and many of my other friends who play sub command and SH3 have never heard of DW

how to counter: easy advertise more in magasines on the net and in shops

in store sales: total joke beyond belief i bough sub command in a store from sonalasyst it done ok so a better version would go down more so i bough sub command when it was kinda in the middle (about 2003)

how to counter: create a demand que like playstation does put a few not alot of copys on the shelf in major stores and when sold out have it on order that way you dont have to over produce and make a loss

my opinion: im glad DW is out im glad its a good game and with the patches it will be better but it will probly be a flunk i doubt many more people than these people on subsim are going to buy it so it becomes junk and that means no copies sold its failed,
not many people know about DW so they dont investigate it and dont dig deep its what puts people off.

personaly i think sonalasyst is going to have to rethink this whole idea of selling DW otherwise its going to be one hell of a great waste.

oh p.s can i see the sales figures if its possible please or something showing number of copys sold

cheers dont mean to be negative just advice and one opinion

Very funny...NOT.

Joke or not that might not help with DWX getting further support.

And they say in every joke there is a grain of truth.
Seriously since SCS were a little pissed that you hacked the SC exe to make different subs playable I don't think Jamie will be impressed by this joke or not.

hacking your own property isnt against the law its like breaking into your own property

id like to know what scs can do to jsteed

if i bought something it automaticaly becomes my property like your house is your property so it means you can do what you like with it whats to stop me gettiung the CD and sticking it up my bum ? nothing i can do exactly what i like with it see the point

and i dont think copyright covers something like that il have to read up on that though

Copywrite laws prevent a product from being modified and redistributed.

I know nothing of jsteed's case and don't care, but if someone hacked the dw executable, and redistributed it over the net, that would be illegal.

That's why I said I don't know and don't care.

I figure SCS has better things to do than sue us.
