It's been reported that Silent Hunter 5 and it's anti piracy protection has been hacked and within 24 hours of it's release! Read the details...

I think this is hilarious...:har:

Already debunked. ;)

Though I doubt it 'll be long before the next "we did it!" message is released by another group.

all lies mate. :damn:

the crack will let you get into the game, but will prevent you from progressing past the tutorial mission. There are threads all over the shop about it.

My advice - buy the damn game and play the arse off it. It's not all there yet but it's still a damn good game, and we all know it'll be even better once the community is done crawling all voer it.

recommend a mod locks this thread soonish.

just curious... how are you so sure that it is lies? I had purchased SH5 from gamestop but can't help wishing that it is cracked in order to get this DRM cr*p removed!!!

You can do patrols with the cracked exe but you can't do any missions.

The first thing I did after buying the game was try to use the crack so I could play offline. :(

Not the kind of thing you want to admit to on these forums...

No doubt my head will be torn off for admitting to purchasing the game.

Edit: If there's a rule against mentioning the crack, then sorry :)

Amen. That's going in my sig.

honestly, I'm pretty sure a lot of us (myself included) have our judgement clouded by how completely ridiculously awesome the community/mod support has been for this game series.

If you compare SHIV with RFB/Trigger Maru/Whatever to 'brand new unpatched out of the box SHV' - of course it's not going to stand up that well.

But if you look at the new things the devs have given our community to play with... I sense GREAT THINGS on the horizon for this game.

Just can't wait for them to happen.

My advice is to wait untill Ubi gets their act together (http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/03/08/ubisofts-drm-servers-broken-all-day/#more-26585). DRM still needs some tender loving care to work. That is the kind of crap you don't want to exeperience on a sunday meant for nautical warfare.
