so you consider 80% of your fellow community here as "not true subsimmers"?

continuing insults will see you in the brig soon, I suppose.

ah come on alfmann, he wasnt insulting ya.... otherwise i would have to feel insulted too.

He is enthousiastic, and i give him that.
Wish i could say the same about me, but to feel insulted/treated as a not-true-subsim-fan...

Both of us got a thicker skin than that.

Isn't a PR trick, that if something goes wrong, you quickly do something else to divert attention to said problem? We see it time and time again in other situations... Doesn't always work but it's worth a try. I think the Ubi PR people are sleeping on this one.

Yes, either a cunning plan, or incompetence. Ubisoft have had lots and lots of 'cunning plans' in their past. I have often read on other forums when people rant that they will never again buy a Ubi product due to Ubi's sheer brilliance with PR campaigns.

I have more than enough right here to keep me happily entertained until I die and voting with my wallet is the only true effective way to clearly get my opinion across to those that can actually change it.

Yes Demand is indeed a bad choice of words. But what i mean by this poll is to show the demand for a gameplay movie. I mean i just dont anderstand why we dont get anything at all while this would surely to a certain extent turn this DRM thing around a bit and have people focus on the features on sh-5 that make the game. I mean i getting tired of this whole DRM thing and all the posts sem to be about this one way or another. But if they dont give us anything else to talk about this will remain the same i guess. I,m sure the devs and ubi are somewhat carefull as to what they should give us now , but i,m sure not giving us anything at all is always the worst thing to do in the end.

oh dear drama drama.

Rock on SH5 :D

I see... well then Ubi should hire new PR people. I wonder if that Ronald McDonald clown is available. He does a good job.

Are you suggesting that 80% of the Community are not going to buy SH5? If so, I think you are very wrong. I think you are in the minority.

To clarify, I am suggesting that anyone who does not buy SH5 can't really love Subsims, what else is there!? You guys can't exactly afford to be picky! The Silent Hunter series is the best subsim series there has ever been! What are you talking about?! This can't be just the language barrier.

If you can afford a computer powerful enough to run SH5 smoothly (Even I can't at the moment and I have a dual core processor and 8000 Series NVidia Card), you can afford broadband internet connectivity. The majority of people who will buy SH5 have broadband. It's 2010, broadband has NEVER cut-out on me, so to suggest that DRM (or whatever the hell it's called) is a problem is completely ludicrous to me.

HundertzehnGustav 01-31-10 01:07 PM

Hay!

I am a Virtual Pilot, yet have not bought FSX/acceleration nor Falcon 4.0
i am into Il-2, Cfs3 and Lomac though.

Whats this nonsense anyway, true subsimmer vs not-true subsimmer?

Yall are a bunch of Keyboard users and Mice clickers! nothing more nothing less. And me too.

we dont even eat Navy food!

:rock::rotfl2:

and SHV is a FPS or RPG game, we should close the SHV forum entirely by March 6!
Just wait and see!

then the SHV GAMERS will be cast out of the Simmers Elite, and what remains is the SHII, III and IV crews laughing about a bunch of kiddos.


(---> Just an exercise to see if i can post such strong and absurde comments as good as the next fellow.)

Are you serious when you say things like that? So if I play Aces Of The Deep and not SH4 or 5 I don't really love Subsims? :o

That's exactly what I am saying. The name of this website is subsim, not u-boat sim.

What do you mean you're not playing SH5?! No one is, it hasn't come out yet!

If you're dissmissing Sh5 without even playing it, then I am flat-out telling you you're not a subsim fan.

Do You think that planet earth is UK ?
How would people afford broadbend connection if there is no line?
***
Does Toyota or Ford control what you do with your car?
Do they pose conditions and restrictions... in starting and parking?

If you feel happy to be "on Ubi chain"... go for it, but please without "lessons" to us...

Brag 01-31-10 02:03 PM

The General, hmmm, thinks we are stupid. I have only one thing to say to him.

Moo :D

I think you should give consideration to the fact that many people aren't on broadband connections because of it's cost or possibly even the fact that it might not be available in their area.

Even with a broadband connection you have failed to recognise the vital ingrediant.....the Ubi server, will it work trouble free and will it be able to supply enough capacity to meet the expected demand.

Personally, I'm currently on a 50MB connection but that will mean squat if I'm locked out of the server.
