as far as i know, the sinking patch will be come out in sept, and probaly with some other fixes.
but can they make a single patch of the sinking so that you already can sink, because i thought that ships could sink (even the rest) and probaly a lot of people feeld themselfs a bit screwed, so how faster the patch releases, how more people don't have to wait anymore for the sinking patch, the other features may come later

I do not really care about sinking in the game. I do my best to avoid damage at all. I would rather have the mission editor... or multiplayer... or better dynamics...

What I am trying to say here is that we all want something different and why should you have your sinking patch before I get my multiplayer patch?! Be paitient and let VSTEP use their time on improvements rather than preparing update after update.

I'm sorry to ask, but just suppose ships can sink: you make it sink once, game over. You make in sink a second time, again game over. Maybe a third and fourth time even. Again, game over and game over. Why would you let a ship sink a fifth time? Concequence is that the ship can't sail anymore, so there is no fun as soon as the ship has sunk. Is sinking ships actually a crucial element of the game for you?

<sigh>  There is no accounting for the juvenile fantasy, Wout.

I won't bother me to keep sinking, That is what this game is about: realism. Without sinking this game will no longer be a simulation, more of a mere arcade game. So in this case why not let sinking be an appliable setting for those who want sinking, and those who don't. I want it so I would keep the setting on.

good point pmillett22

but, also this was supposed to be planned in SS2008, but is wasn't there so i feeled a bit screwed about that, because not everyone buys ship simulator as a simulator but mostly as a game, and what is a ship game without sinking?,  there is no game in the world as were you can walk onboard while the ship founders, and i always wanted to do that.

The patch is planned for the 17th of August. I'm afraid there is not going to be a special patch to make sinking possible. I can't help you any further regarding this issue.

This is not about sinking or not sinking. It is about whether or not the sinking part of the upcomming patch should be released seperately before anything else. No, I do not think so! I was promissed multiplayer as well as you were promissed sinkings... Gather it all in a overall patch instead of releasing lots of patches that people mix up... as we have seen several times with SS06.

well, the patch now releases in augustus, so that is a very good point to me so can play the last days of my summer vacation on a sinking ship  , btw you can also walk on water, so when your ship sinks, you can swim away!  ....or maybe not?...
