Silent Hunter 3 since GWX was put out, til then I would have to say the Silent Hunter 2 would have been the game to beat. There is still life in the old girl yet. Still so much you can do with it. But with GWX mod the play and graphics cant be beat for SH3.

SH3 + GWX by far!!! Aces of the Deep was pretty good too, as for SH4, when I get a new GeForce card and an extra gig of ram it may knock GWX off the top but it will be a hard job to do.....

Yes it is. SH3 is far and away the best sub sim I've played. Still haven't played with GWX, but the version I was running when forced to quit was so heavily modded there probably isn't a whole lot of difference, except the new ships and of course the redone Canal. I also haven't been able to play SH4, but I'm betting that by the time I can there had better be an option for two choices at a time; it looks good.

Now if the poll let us actually rate them...

I have to say SH3 is my favorite, especially since the release of GWX. SH4 is good too, but I'm more of a U-boat fan. Aces of the Deep was great back in the day, but it can't really compete with the latest games.

All votes for SH3 so far, but then this is the SH3 forum. I wonder if posting the same poll in the Silent Hunter 4 forum would yield the same results?

SHIII with GWX hands down is by far the best I've seen and played. Even SHIII with just a bunch of mods is fun to play. But GWX puts you into the sim more than anything I've seen. As Walter Conkrite said... "You are there!"

To be honest I've been fiddling around with SH4 more than SHIII lately just to get the feel of it and see what Patch 1.3 can do to make it more playable.... not much as far as I can see for me. But you have to love the SH4 graphics just the same. ;)

I never played SH or SHII because of the bad press and what others had said about them, so I stayed away from both.

This is not to be taken as neglect of sh4 I just have left it unloaded
until im finished my sh3 projects so my opinion on sh4 isnt properly
formed yet.

that said SH3 with GWX1.03 is far and away the best subsim ever for
detail, realism, AI, comprehensiveness, research, and possibly the single
greatest accomplishment in Freemodding history all games.

For now that may be the case. But as I mentioned in the my first post, this thread is preaching mainly to the converted . GWX and other like mods have brought out the best in SH3, no question about that.

In time SH4 will be great in it's own right, it is still barely 5 months old. There are some great things happening with it :yep:

well its a bad option to compare silent service with silent huntet 3 dont ya think???
but as far as "dates" are concerned the silent service should win hands down. up to todays dates then SH3 GWX wins hands down. so just to be awkward Silent Service for me due to their brilliant prgramming gor the era.

I found this quite a difficult choice, because I have enjoyed many subsims e.g. the likes of Silent Service, but they are from a different era so really can't be compared with today's subsims. At the time Silent Service was around any dedicated subsimmer would have probably said it was the best thing since sliced bread like we are saying SH3 is today. I also enjoy the modern subsims like Sub Command and Dangerous Waters (why isn't DW on the list!!) and have spent many enjoyable hours in my 688i or Seawolf trying to track enemy subs or surface vessels to achieve the mission objectives.

RE SH4.

If i was to draw comparisions, id say that right now, SH4, at 6 months of age, is probably where SH3 was, after it's first year. Since modding for it isnt figuring out everything again from scratch, progression comes much quicker. Looking back on my SH3,days, id say its about in that transition period from Rubini's "Harbor traffic" and the first Unified campaign mods and mayb even sometime when the first the first versions of NYGM and GW appeared.

Theres still hotbuttons issues to be fixed, but by and large the game is emensly more enjoyable now. Ive pretty much worked my ass off since patch 1.3 appeared and forced me out of retirement, and am trying my best to wind my activies down now.

As for progress, heres a few examples:

Tater, is doing bang up job with the campaign layers. I think hes gonna give rubini a run for his money as campaign scripters go.

I agree with what you are saying, but as your links demonstrate, SH4 is still missing modellers - apart from some average SH3 ship and plane conversions, I haven't seen anything new being built for SH4, which after six months does concern me.

I certainly hope that for longer term "growth" some skilled modellers jump onto SH4, for it's currently an area that I'd argue is certainly not equal to where SH3 was after six months. Hopefully there's some people who are just working away "behind the scenes" and will surface to surprise us shortly.

BTW, I thought TM1.4 was your last "hurrah"? Now it's 1.6? :p Just wait until patch 1.4 is released (which looks likely based on some things mentioned by the devs in the SH4 forums), you'll be back, LOL!

My problem is i can't force myself to stop. If theres a bug, or something i misadusted, it bugs me because *I* did it. I have to go back and fix it because it "has my name on it". Call it an old world sense of craftsmanship if you want, I dunno That and theres always, "one more thing" id like to fix or do. It never ends.

But ive come to a conclusion.
- Someone will always find something wrong with what i did, or with the game
- someone will always not like some of my design decisions
- I will never find or fix all bugs, regardless of source.
- I will never please everyone
- I will always want to fix one more thing.
- If i keep this up, i will never play the game at all.

Im not falling into that trap. After 1.6, regardless of what people say, im calling it quits. I'm tired of my inbox filling up, and im tired of being "tech support". Theres always "one more thing", and if i keep allowing myself to be slave to that, i will never enjoy myself.

edit:
RE modellers.
Truthfully i think what ships exist in stock are adequate in variety. With how long patrols can go in SH4 (seeings how 99% of all boats are long range), i have a great worry about load times. I fear A glut of new models would only serve to change what is a minor annoyance, into a problem with long loading times.

I hadn't much fun with it either :/. Although I had been heavily looking forward to it.

SH4 is a big mess though. At least if considering what it could have been.
I mean they had the perfect basis to create an outstanding game.
- SH3 as a great game, even in the stock version with it's many little flaws here and there.
- And a large and responsive community which had already worked out most of the things SH3 was lacking in.

And then they release SH4 and the modders have to do everything all over again. This is sometwhat stupid.
But I would think that this is mostly UBI's fault because they tried to get the release date as soon as possible. Of course they did, they have to as any other publisher too. But they perhaps should have given the developers team a few month more time in this case.

So the choice of this poll is still clearly SH3, especially with GWX :)

Stock SH4 1.3 is superior to Stock SH3 1.4b, now SH4 1.3 vs. GWX is a different story, but it is getting there.

Just take a look in the archives at early SH3 stuff, it is not much different than current SH4 discussions. That game like early SH4 had its issues, plus folks to an extent were expecting a similar experience with SH4, it is a differrent theatre, game, so it is a different experience.

At any rate i hope that someday folks come back and check out SH4 and the pacific. Maybe not today or tommrrow, but someday. Historically, It's a story worth being told. What the pacific lacks in scale (as compared to the atlantic) , it more then makes up for in intensity of action. In some actions that occured in that theater, truth is stranger the fiction.
if all these mods were mixed in to 1 big supermod like the GWX team do's then i will play SHIV again. :cool:
if not then SHIV stays on "the pile" :down:
Would take about 20 minutes to do the above, probably less :yep: You can start playing anytime :up:

I was not meaning 20 minutes to d\l, but 20 to configure. The d\l of course woud take longer, but worth it. To bad about the bandwith, are there no other places you can d\l stuff.

I can play SH4... and have tried. I have a far better than average computer, but it still breaks my heart to have to turn so much nice stuff down, or off, to make it 'fun'...

SH3 keeps roaring along. My computer loves it... I guess I do too...

SH3 + GWX by far!!! Aces of the Deep was pretty good too, as for SH4, when I get a new GeForce card and an extra gig of ram it may knock GWX off the top but it will be a hard job to do.....GWX makes SH# so much better it was my favorite without GWX but with anything there is allways room for improvement.

SHIII with GWX 4ever.........688I and DW was too sterile for me. So much more entertaining to execute a well-thought out convoy attack and then evade the escorts.




Have a nice day :)

I didn't read the whole thread this time, but how come this is asked in a SH3 specific forum ? Shouldn't the outcome be quite obvious as it is right now anyways ? :roll: It's like posting "Which is better: IL2 or CFS3" in the CFS3 forums, LOL!

And again...perhaps someone should post a similar poll in the SH4 forum and see what results you get. I very much doubt anyone would be surprised at the final poll results, however, regardless if this poll was in the SH4 forum or the IL2 forum or the Tank.sim forum. That's not just hyperbole...that's reality.

I found Aces of the Deep in the bargain bin in my local record/software shop in 1997. I knew nothing about subs, but I thought it looked interesting. Since then I was a dedicated subsimmer, I just barely passed my exams that year;)
SH3 was a milestone , but Aces will always be my number one.
SH 4 has beautiful graphics and the radio, but when you get the SJ "Godīs eye" radar it becomes boring, boring, boring!!!

SH3 with GWX. Have yet to load SH4, despite having bought the game the day it came out! Just want to make it through to 45! Now the GWX team are bringing out the final version (1.0.4), so SH4 could be waiting a bit longer.:hmm:

Might be a dumb observation but...

This poll is asked in the wrong area...It should in a neutral forum post not in the SH3 forum..

There is potentially too much biasness here

Every subforum is biased in its own way, because every forum serves a particular interest. Its kind of a no brainer.

If Dangerous Waters was on that list, it would have been a REALLY hard choice for me so I chose SH III.

As GWX is not in the poll as SH3+GWX I am not voting. :arrgh!:



Yes! SH3+GWX is a different game you can play for years! The best of all! I think its a league on its own, no competition!!:up:

SH3 natch. SH2 was great at the time, so was Silent Service, but the graphics improvements since then would make them hard to play now.

Nothing has beaten the depth and enjoyment I have experienced in SH3 yet... Sh4 looks pretty but... it just doesn't have what SH3 has imo.

Edit: SH3 with GWX of corse :D

I'm a newbie to sub simming, so given whats on the list, its either AoD or SHIII.

SHIII + GWX of course is my favorite. Nothing tops the feeling I first felt when I was trying to sneak up on a convoy in shallow waters, and I heard that dreaded ping.

I havent put all subsims ever on here because i dont know them all so no complaints please.Its a matter of faveourite out of those given.

Why the absence of Janes 688(i)? It's the sim that proved quality submarine simulations to still be marketable. It was also the first to have real patch support and community interaction [remember SubSim's Fix My 688(i) petition?]. We wouldn't have SH2/3/4, Sub Command or Dangerous Waters without it.
