Hi Dau & Welcome aboard!

I am ready to give the game a try as I indicated above. To me the new direction is interesting and somewhat unique, I think the main problem the game currently faces here is that most players expect a Silent Hunter title to be a first person "you are there" kind of experience whereas SHO is really functioning at a more detached higher level of command, not necessarily a bad thing, just a different experience, a "bit of a shock to the system". But to quote Captain Ramius from the Hunt for Red October "A little revolution once in a while is a good thing... don't you think?"

Bluebyte has a great track record as far as strategy titles go and I certainly hope that the game will be a success for you and in turn encourage Ubi to develop SHO further, hopefully adding playable surface units from the allied side at some point along perhaps with a more traditional first person simulation Silent Hunter Experience as a parallel development.
