It's a dynamic campaign where the Soviets constantly try to conquer NATO territory. So for instance if you fail to stop a landing force bound for Iceland, you lose Iceland and thus SOSUS coverage from the Faeroes to Greenland, as well as regular ASW air patrols in that area. Or you may be tasked with intercepting a submarine tender but just detected a surface taskforce obviously trying to break out into the North Atlantic convoy routes through the Denmark Strait - decisions, decisions.

Linear is not how I would describe it.

There will be single missions and hopefully some kind of custom mission editing function. However unlike DW, our missions don't use any scripting at all.

So I guess the short answer is that it's more of a sandbox.

One question: Will there be a 3d interior like those of Silent Hunter series? I find that to be very immersive.

No. Since there are no crew stations a 3D interior would serve little purpose.

What do you mean by no crew stations?
What does the interface look like, I mean, won't we have stations like in DW, Sonar etc.?

Humm... I got the feeling that it won't replace DW cause it won't be a true simulation.
Maybe a strategy game with some elements simulated?!

Me neither, but I don't know for sure, so I ask specific questions instead of blindly boarding the hype train already acting as if this will be the next DW (some people here seem to think that).

Finally a subsim with a Dynamic Campaign !!!

I got tired of just sinking ships and having no influence on the outcome of the game/war !

Looking forward to it then !
