What sub sims could use........
.....ala flight sims for years.
The ability for two or more human players to man different posts online. Communicate via voice comms software, etc. Different player as captain, navigator, weapons, etc. Flight sims have had this ability for years, i.e., pilot/co-pilot, etc. Seems like it'd be a hoot in subsims too. |

Sorry I disagree. Spending hours slowly attacking and then creeping away is far different that the in your face action of flight sims.

the multiplayer crew concept would add a new dimension to a sub sim... at least i think so...
but in order to make it really entertaining, there must be more to do than just press D to dive, and stuff like that... there has to be a lot of 'hands on' in the operation of the sub systems, the sensors, and the weapons... yeah... having a 'real' crew would really 'rock' now imagine having a couple of real crews, sub, surface, and air... pitted against each other... --Mike |

I.e., each station modeled more realistically, etc. |
