Editorial stance.

Ha ha.

Shhhhhhhhhhh you might get censored for telling the truth. :rotfl2:

because the buck stops at Neal's desk:salute:

thats the reason

;)

Hmmm... cheap shots now, Golderak?

I don't see any significant reason to boycott the game.
I'll buy it :sunny:

You know, the site owner has given his explaination. You don't have to like it or agree with it, but snide remarks and childish behavior demean us all. I like to believe that we are all above that here.

My full support to Neal's decisions. I know they're being specially tough regarding the latest conversations around here. :up:

Maybe its because boycotts of this kind simply dont work anyway.

Look at it though Ubis eyes.

There have been calls to 'boycott' just about every new release on every forum of every sucessful game franchise where expectations are high. Whats going on here with SHV is no different.

Even if a Publisher the size of Ubi really wanted to pay attention to our little niche (0.1% of the market) corner of the web, a boycott would be unlikely to phase them.
If someone is not going to buy a product then they will not be staging a protest to see improvements made to it.
Boycott threats just means you care, it even demonstrates you are fanatical, which probabaly means you are still going to buy it anyway.
And even if you dont... the other 99.9% will so its no big deal.

IMHO, Indifference and non-intreast would scare a Large Publisher a hell of alot more than a protest.
In the creative industries a bad reaction is better than no reaction.

Not allowed? you don't get it?
 

Not allowed? you don't get it?

Ok, no offence to anyone here, but all this sounds so silly to me.

I really don't think it's about Ubisoft, I think it's about any publisher/developer of any submarine simulation.

What I understand from subsim.com is that it promotes, shares and give news about any submarine simulations.

If I was the owner of this site and if I wanted this place to grow, I don't think it would be very clever to be associated with a boycott of any publisher/developer (it could be hard later on to have some privileged info...).

BTW it's not like if there were so many submarine simulations on the market right now...

Is it guilt by association when the General Topics forum is full of right wing nutters posting crap? Of course not. So why would it be guilt by association if people vent here about a game.

I think people need to get a more realistic viewpoint of this website. We are really not that important. We are just a bunch of game lovers posting our opinions on an internet forum. I doubt anyone outside of this website takes the opinions posted here seriously... nor should they.

I think it is hubris to think that posts need to be censured because of any association with the website.:nope:

Wow,

nearly the same discussion like in german forum.

I will buy it to get the full information about the crap.
We need a base, more arguments for being active in things like "boykott" !

At this time the informations are not tight enough for this "nuclear weapon".
I agree with Neal.
But when it is tested out, one week after release, we have this option if SH5 is more crap we think about it yet.
The only thing we have to do is wait cause the time is working for us, not for the devs.
They have to work against the time............

With more than 40 000 members (without counting those who come here and who are not members) this website might be more important than you think. ;)

With 6 billion people in the world we are truly an insignificant spec in the internet.

40 000?? How come I only see the same 10 people all the time :lol:
