Welcome :sunny:

Welcome back
 

Hi there.

Not really a SH5 player yet, bought it on Steam and refunded it after trying to get TWoS installed. Doh, busy downloading it on UPlay right now.

Long time player of SH3 GWX3 and SH4 though, although after a long absence I seem to have forgotten alot.

Hi I'm Nic,

Had a PC since early 1990s, played most sub sims on it. Perhaps Hunt for Red October was a favourite because I'm not sure I ever finished it and ended up in some mission loop. 688 Attack Sub was perhaps the first one I played.

A Brit but currently in Central America. We don't get many subs up our way, well maybe narco ones!

Playing SH3 and now having "fun" trying to get SH5 to work.

Welcome aboard!
 

We are in a Shallow Game, Captain

CE: "Jawohl, Herr Kaleun! Are we ending our mission early?"

Bruno Hessler: "Of course chief. Have you not noticed SH5 is rubbish?"

CE: "Jawohl, Herr Kaleun!"

Bruno Hessler: "I can't target the Tommies properly in this version. My Watch Officer is too much wrapped up in his family."

CE: "Jawohl, Herr Kaleun!"

Bruno Hessler: "When we dock at Kiel re-install SHIII."

CE: "Jawohl, Herr Kaleun!"

Bruno Hessler: "Stop the shouting!"

CE: "I'm sorry Herr Kaleun I don't have that MOD installed."

Bruno Hessler: "And wear a decent uniform!"

CE: "I don't have that either, Herr Kaleun."

Bruno Hessler: "Never mind."

Welcome to SubSim fish :salute:

Hello
 

Hi all, I heard about subsim on steam and tho it looked like a good place to to check out, I'm 54 and live in Australia and enjoy military sims. After looking at the steam forums I decided to buy SH 3,4 & 5 as a package which should arrive in the post in the next 3-4 days. Which game would you recommend as the best in the series?, I found the steam forums to be a bit confusing, some saying that SH 5 was unplayable without mods etc, would appreciate any advice, cheers Ausprey

Welcome aboard!
 

Depends upon what you want. Most of my time is spent in SH4 in the "Pacific Theatre", playing as a US skipper on a Fleet Boat. Lots of "deep" play time there (sorry, bad sub joke...). I've played with and like the Uboat campaign just fine in the v1.5 (which you may not have in the Steam package), but it is rather thin in "stock" form. While "outdated" from a graphics perspective (supposedly), if you like being a Uboat commander, SH3 is the way to go, especially if modded. However, I'm a recent SH5 purchaser (also via Steam), and it definitely has tweaked my curiosity more than a little. Again though, it's Uboat-centric. So of the 3, if you're after commanding a US Fleet boat, then SH4 is where I'd start. "Out-of-the-box", probably the easiest interface (for me) to get used to - but then SH3's interface is easy to navigate also, if you're after Uboats. SH5 is sort-of like an FPS, in that you have to walk all over the place, and the screen layout is quite a bit different from the others - and it almost *has* to be modded to be playable. All that said, next person will tell you something completely different - :lol: - welcome to the forum, Ausprey (and all the others)! :salute:
