Howdy subsimmers.
Somehow, after ~10 years this game is back on my sonar.
Well, to be honest a friend of mine was talking about world of warships and it got me thinking "what was that incredible sub sim I used to play with an american friend?". A google search later and I'm purchasing SH3 on steam. I remember reading SH4 wasn't a patch on 3, and I completely missed 5, and reading this morning about it seems I wouldn't of gotten my moneys worth out of it.
Back then I had no idea of mods and was a little green with PC gaming having only come to it 2 or 3 years previously. I most certainly had never played a sim before and I was hooked.
Time marches on and after a few months I was probably back on the most recent COD or whatever.
I've since been a big fan of sims like Elite dangerous, ARMA, Iracing etc. I like my games with a little more substance these days. And I can't tell you how real the nostalgia is to get back into this.
I do however have a question, a question that is likely asked by every bloody new sign up, I'm afraid. Yep, you've guessed it!
What are the best mods to start out with? Sorry :wah:
Also, is the SHO online I ha e just discovered worth playing (I really don't have a lot of time these days, a couple hours weekdays, maybe a few hours on a Sunday).
Anyways, sorry for the wall of text! Can't wait to get the game installed and hope its as good as Iremember!
Cheers
