On November 4th I flew into San Francisco to spend time visiting with
the SSI crew. While vaulting about their new offices north of town I
had a chance to meet with the Ultimation crew as well as talk to Rick
Martinez, Troy Heere, and Shawn Storc.
Silent Hunter II and Destroyer Command have been delayed til
Q2, 2000.
Delays often mean improvements, and these delays make it even more
likely that we will see an inter-operable pair in Destroyer Command and
Silent Hunter II!
The goal is to build these two together so that you can man the
U-boats, or provide the escort buffer to face the wolf packs. Both
games are looking great and will provide a unique entry into the naval
simulation genre.
There isn't much new to report on SH2, but watch for a complete
update on Destroyer Command later this week. In the meantime, here are
a batch of screen shots from Silent Hunter II.
