Vstep really should make them playable, when you look at it this way: We can't drive the japanese boats, just greenpeace, what the game really does to the japanese is making them look like the "bad guys", a sort of racism I'd say. It's most common to say that the most of the world look upon whaling as bad, BUT there's also those who don't and don't forget they are actual researching on migration, population and feeding happits, so It's not proven that they are commercial whaling. Here's were people have different opinions.
I'm sure that if Titanic turned out to be an Ai ship for this game, there would be a 1000's threads arguing about this, but when we do the same, not making a 1000 threads, but shares our opinions, we get ingored by Vstep.
Thanks a lot! What happened to your state Frank, in one of the interviews on youtube you say that people on the forum has a big role and that their opinions has something to say during the deveplovment of the game, well I sure doesn't fell like my opinion counts....
Edit:
I've heard them say those boat cant be playable in SSE because their not at a equal stage of graphic like most playable ships in SSE, well when it comes to the whaler thats rubbish. Just look at the pictures I took, do they look bad? No I dont think they do....
I really think they respond the the requirments set for the playable boats for this game!
