Silent Hunter 5

[MadBurgerMaker]

So I got an email about this on Monday from Subsim for some reason.  Features:

Silent Hunter® 5 key features:

• VIEW AS A CAPTAIN: Walk through highly detailed submarines in the new first-person view and access every part of your U-boat.
• BECOME A REAL LEADER: Interact with your crew, watch them perform their daily jobs and experience the tension and fear inside the U-boat through the new advanced order system.
• WAR STRATEGIES: Choose your own strategy and select your targets with a new objective-driven, dynamic campaign.
• ENEMY REACTIONS: Open new locations, upgrades and resupply possibilities, while the Allied ships adjust dynamically to your approach. Your actions will directly impact the evolution of the campaign.
• NEW USER INTERFACE: Prowl the waters with a brand-new user interface. Now, every beginner can successfully command a sub while remaining free of confusion. In expert mode, experienced players will be provided all the necessary information and controls to command the sub completely on their own.
• CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE: Experience the most realistic and immersive Silent Hunter ever created. Improved environment graphics create a powerful level of immersion as you operate authentic, highly detailed U-boats and fight against surface ships.

Early 2010.

Link to where I ripped off the screenshot and c&ped those features from (there's also another SS there, as well as a trailer that I haven't watched) :

Alright then.  Carry on.

Edit:  Oops...broken table.  Too bad there isn't a spoiler tag or something on this board.

I kind of drifted out of the subsim scene after Gato and Silent Service.

Hey that's not really true, I played some Aces of the Deep too.

I want an Italian submarine simulator.

An Italian attack diver sim would be kind of cool. There would be submarines.

Oooo. Good one. Frogmen sneaking into Alexandria. Hot.

I won't buy any sub sim unless you can shell and machine gun (using the AA guns I guess) people in the water.

Didn't the last one have lifeboats?  Could you not shoot those up?  I don't remember (haven't played SH<#> in a while now).

Go fill your bathtub and stick your head under.  Same thing.

I'd need a screen door for a Polack sub sim.

Doesn't replace the GWX supermod.

Doesn't replace the GWX supermod.

That's the real question, isn't it? If the new engine is mod-friendly, I will buy it fairly quickly. If there are no improvements there, I see no reason to upgrade. Hell, I'm still waiting for GWX4 to buy SH4.

What is the scenario? Atlantic war, Pacific?

FFS Lucidor can't you see that it's a Type VII U-boot on the pic in the OP? What kind of geek are you ?

Hmmm, I am probably less of one than you all are. My GF lets me do nerdish things, so I figure I'm not too close to falling off the edge to nerdvana.
