Honestly, although not a pure sim, if they can deliver on the multiplayer tactical aspect of the game, it may be pretty fun.
With the social aspect,I'm sure they will be keeping stats for the wolpacks. We can easily make a subsim wolfpack and show everyone how much this community owns sub games.
Try not to think of it as Silent Hunter 6 and more as a new branch of the silent hunter series. It honestly hasn't been THAT long since the last SH, and although they haven't supported it well, ubisoft loves money, so you can bet there will likely be a 6th.
I'm excited to try it out myself. Sure I can't manually aim a torpedo but you get to command an entire flotilla.
For me it's not about the fact that it's not SH6, it's about whether or not they can deliver on what they say the game offers. If it is as easy as other casual online games, forget it. But if there is even some semblance of difficulty then I might be interested to play it casually.
