In the old games I always was Captain, XO, Weapons Officer, Bosun, Sound Man, Radio Man, etc. I like the 'you're the captain of the boat' thing they went for. The immersion level in those moments is great. Running down the ladders, calling for periscope depth on my way to the attack scope or hydrophone station is so much cooler than just tapping a few F keys. Lighting, shadows, water, weather, land, everything is improved, often drastically.īeing able to walk around in the sub is great. Graphics are fantastic, well surpassing the previous entries in the series. Here's a quick rundown of my personal yays and nays so far. I got an installed SH5 yesterday and managed to get through the tutorial patrol and get out on my first patrol and over to the English east coast.
