I understand your viewpoint, and can agree to a certain degree.. But this is the way of computer games.... If it isnt a demo, you dont know excactly what you are getting. But this is NOT a reason for DL it illegaly. And please; Do not start a discussion about such borderline issues, mates.... Keep it clean.! :up:

Whether Haydrs is right or not. But it's true: a serious community can't propagate illegal content or accept it's members doing that.

buyed it. played it. threw it away :nope:

1. those fraggin subs drink fuel like hell. i once had to go to japan (from pearl harbour) and didnt had fuel to return... AND I DID GO ON AHEAD SLOW :damn:
2. ITS NO FUN!
3. ITS CRAP!
4. it didnt had U-124 :cry:

I'm too busy fighting a war in my U-boat :arrgh!:

Tried it with 1.3 patch... works nice, looks nice, but it doesnt' have the atmosphere created by SH3.
CapZap

Haven't picked it up yet. Probably wait awhile.

Never even bought it, even when I saw the previews and screen shots. I'd rather fight for the Fatherland.

Maybe I'll try SH4 when I' ve won the battle of the atlantic in my type XXI :huh:

Same here. That's why I still play Silent Service on my Atari with 512kb of RAM and no hard drive.

You should stay current on the threads; a lot of people are loving it with patch 1.3. (Oh, and welcome aboard!)

I'll say the same thing I've said the last several times this question has been asked: I can't play anything right now, but when I can I'll be playing both until something truly better comes along.

And take a look at the old archives. All the old SH3 threads have comments like "It sucks!" "It's unplayable!" "It's even worse than SH2...and that sucked, too!"

I gave up on 4, and am still playing 3. I'll wait a year or two until the modders (god bless them) make sh4 worth playing.

This ^^, SH4 more, but GWX is not going anywhere soon. Like both theatres.

I can't even try SHIV as those mutton-heads at UBI made the specs for the game too hard. Neither of my computers can play the game without terrible mouse lag and low options. UGH!:arrgh!::arrgh!::arrgh!:

And it's not like I didn't give the game a chance....
 

I bought two copies when it came out. But now SH4 is off my computer and on the shelf. I'm sticking with SHIII from here on out. :up:

I'm sticking with SHIII, I like SHIV but it needs some major work to it for it to be as fun as SHIII. Plus I prefer u-boats over the yank subs anyday.

What a mature post, better change your sig. :shifty:

That's because your on the winning team. :rotfl:

im to lazy for that :shifty:

Exactly what I posted over on the SH4 forum in the thread "Is this it?" For SH4, that IS IT. No more patches will be forthcoming from Ubi. Also, I paid $10 for SH3 new in the box at Amazon.com. The cheapest price I could find for SH4 was $32.51 and that was for a USED version. No way I'm paying that price for something that won't be fixed until the modders get done with it. I can stay in the Atlantic and not be bugged with bugs :smug:

Tried it...
Launched the game after having watched/read a SH3/SH4 differences guide.
Set the options
Started my career
Got told about the war, was assigned to that island.
Ok, finally I'm in my cabinet... Sub upgrades, let's see what the americans have to offer - what? what the hell am I going to do now, this stupid interface..
Ok, seems I don't have anything to set, off to sea!

I won't continue

Taking it all together - the UI is CRAP.. sorry, I'm not usually talking like this, but really, it is, compared to SH3. The 2D jokermen look really bad. The game has very high spec reqs (That's not a big problem tough, water is a hard thing to render). And a thing not the fault of this game - American subs are not good at all.

So far I've not been tempted by SH4 -- somehow the PTO doesn't really grab me. And I've nothing against Gato/Balao boats, the only subs I've actually set foot in (USS Pampanito & Bowfin). Well, there's always next year...
