Ahoy vwcd rumour as it that Wolfpack is two Simulations in one Co-op
five crew members in the Uboat working as a well oiled machine.
Now we have Bots so if you want to play it solo you can or four different players in there own Uboats attacking same convoy.

Re Christmas Discount its already built into Wolfpack at the time of Purchase

£27.97 - $35.00 and unlimited free updates

Onkel Neal covers all the bases

That's not how discounts work though.

Sadly, I see a game with great potential being held back by insufficient marketing.

If you want Wolfpack to truly succeed, you should want massive Steam sales, regular official Twitch streams in English, etc. Whatever it takes to get the broader Steam community interested. Subsim alone is too small in comparison, and we already bought the game anyway.

As it stands, there's not enough inflow of new people into the community, plain and simple. The official Discord is all tumbleweeds, and most of the capable players I know are nowhere to be found any more. The playerbase has dried up.

A Christmas sale, I say, is the least that the publisher can do at this point.

Guru you really need to join us at Wolfpack BdU! We are always looking for skippers, we use a modded version of the game, and we seek to provide the additional challenge for people in the meantime while additional content is fleshed out in the game.

The players who currently have Wolfpack will be amply rewarded when new content is released. They have stepped forward and bought the game, which is the support needed to continue. These are the people we want to reward. It's natural for them to move on to other games and things while they await Scapa Flow, the campaign, and the rest of what the devs have in store for them. When we release major new content, they get it free, they already paid their price and shouldered the load.

We could have a big sale and a bunch of holdouts would be rewarded. Then in a couple months they would move on to other things. And we would be right back where we are today.

We could market the game more heavily but it is still in early access and we want to wait for the rest of the major components to be in the game.
