ABOUT THIS GAME
Hunt, hide and kill as you take command of U.S. submarines and crews and navigate the treacherous waters of the Pacific during WWII.
Silent Hunter, the industry-leading naval warfare simulation franchise for over a decade, returns to its roots with next-generation graphical realism, immersive gameplay, innovative crew evolution and more action than ever before.
Developed by the same Ubisoft team that delivered Silent Hunter 3, the "king of sub games", to worldwide critical acclaim, the 2007 installment offers the most memorable, accessible and empowering submarine simulation experience ever.
Hollywood Blockbuster experience: Lifelike graphics and spectacular audio/visual effects offer an incredibly immersive gaming experience. Witness the historical accuracy and the amazing attention to detail from the breathtaking Pacific settings to the more than 75 authentic-looking war machines such as the U.S. Gato class submarine, the Japanese battleship Yamato and the H6K flying boat.
Large Scale Naval Engagements: Epic naval engagements can be witnessed by players either firsthand or via radio messages and orders from high command.
Innovative crew evolution: Earn upgrades and experience to guide the evolution path of crewmembers, making your men the most effective naval force in the Pacific theater.
Immersive single player gameplay: Diverse mission objectives and events combined with unique rewards make each campaign a new experience. Commandeer various U.S. submarines and progress your career as a naval officer via improved dynamic campaigns in Career Mode, or dive into 'instant actions' and single patrols for a quick fight.
Addictive Online New Adversarial Mode: Join forces with up to 8 friends via LAN or 4 via internet in either cooperative or adversarial gameplay modes. Scripted and generated mission types allow for epic online battles and unlimited replayability.
Scalable learning experience: Selectable difficulty levels allow players to choose how challenging of a simulation to play.
Easy to control: An upgraded and streamlined interface makes moving around the submarine and controlling it much easier than ever before.

@@fernandomarques5166 In that sense yes. Thats why they're called the New S Class. But they also aren't rolling off the production line. They've all been built by this point and have some miles on them. They're old compared to the Gatos which are still being built and especially compared to the Balao, which must be in the design phase I think.

Taff, best instruct your AAA gunner to reload with a full magazine following every engagement. Also, always hold fire until you see the whites of their eyes - firing at a distant smoker is a waste of ammo. Max effective range of a 20mm is around 1,000 - 1,600 yards.

@joeaustin4472 5 ай бұрын

Fantastic episode taff, two more great merchant ships added to the belt of trophies, and of course a sampan sail boat.. that's a great day of work indeed. The IJA will suffer in regards of their logistics with that, their invasions and military operations will be hampered indeed, might not be stopped fully but they will be damaged to some degree, their sampan boats destroyed will damage their pickets and early warning system. Looks like the enemy is getting their fingers out with their aircraft, don't make any mistake about it.. they'll do what they can to sink you. Kamikaze attacks into the water at this point in the war might be down to desperation, or the AI is a bit off. Either way look out for more aircraft, they'll be scouring the sea for you, no doubt about it. Great episode taff, keep up this epic series, love it and well done mate 👍

4:25 The pilots were overly excited about finding and attacking an American sub in the open. They had already scored solid hits and were going in to scrape the crew off the top. Unfortunately, the pilots were new and inexperienced, and weren't paying close enough attention to their airspeed and altitude during their last attack run.

Actually, the US Navy in WW2 did say "Fire". The Royal Navy were sensible enough to say "Shoot" instead. And the Kreigsmarine would say "Loose" (as in set the torpedo loose on the enemy) - that's "Los" in German obviously.
