Give it to me straight.
I kept reading all the horror stories if the game will even start without screwing with it.
I have read them here and on steam reviews. I have this on CD still but would rather have the steam version just easier and it is on sale again. :Kaleun_Wink: |
I just logged into Steam, and it's not available for purchase here.
Had it on CD, but my UBI account somehow dropped it. Got another key issued by UBI, which worked OK. Beautiful graphics, and walking the sub is a nice touch. Was pretty good with mods last time I played, but I started getting too many CTD's and then the issues with the UBI launcher.......... I always end up going back to 3, and am just waiting on the GWX KC edition now. (I just hope they fixed the destroyers jumping to instantaneous lightspeed when they see your torpedo wake.) EDIT I can't help myself............... I've got a new laptop, so have just downloaded the Ubi launcher, TWOS, and am just waiting on SH5 to finish downloading to give it another go. :oops: :har: |

I go back to SS 1. You like 3 the best? So far I have 3 and 4 currently playing 4. Still have a game going in 3 and I think I like 3 better as well. I have over 250K sank in 4 @ 73% realism, maxed out on officers and petty officers. Thinking STONGLY of going back to 3. :Kaleun_Cheers: |
Never had the privilege of playing #1.
Finished downloading 4GB of SH5, installed, ran…….. not good. Intro ran in a window then disappeared, but couldn’t interact. Nothing showing in task bar, or task manager. Alt-Tab wouldn’t bring up anything. Closing the Ubi launcher warns me that the game is still running, but I can’t find it anywhere. Downloaded 2gigs of TWOS, ran the installer. Screwed the .exe and now won’t start.:haha: Wiped the lot, so I might try again later. |

review some of the first few threads of the SH5 forum for more experiential wisdom on playing SH5. :Kaleun_Salute: |

I think it might be a resolution issue, as it’s had problems with other games too. |
Install TWoS. Highly recommended if you don´t want to get mad modding the game yourself.

Attention les amis.. Ubi connect a changé d'interface depuis quelques jours... en plus c est en "beta" il n y a plus de mod offline direct..:D

The above posts is why I keep shying away from SH5.
:k_confused: |

Desktop installed and worked fine yesterday. Laptop keeps bugging out. Suspect its a scaling issue coupled with a 3200x2000 resolution. I've fiddled with options to the point that it won't boot now. Wiped it all and starting again. :hmmm: EDIT 3rd time's a charm. Set my PC to 1440. Booted up the game, and set the game resolution to 3200x2000 and restarted. So far so good. Now for TWOS................. EDIT And it's borked again. Sextant popup can't be closed. No dock animations, and dock staff can't be interacted with. Text box comes up "INJURED". Let's wipe again, and go for round 4 :haha: |
You know what?
I never wanted to play this game anyway... :/\\!! :har: |

i had no problems installing it. minor problems running it...uplay/uconnect. thoroughly hated playing it. the DVD takes up space on my shelf but the game no longer takes up space on my HD. :Kaleun_Salute: |
Complete uninstall, and cclean procedure.
Installs "fine". Boots "fine". Main menu screen seems "fine", with animations & water effects etc. Start a new campaign........ frozen in bunk, with no intro progression. Start a historical mission........ crew frozen in place. Can interact with crew to a degree, but not the boat controls. Tried most resolutions, and High DPI tweaks. Crew stands stiff like ironing boards. |
If you install from cd you need to update the game to v1.2 then install twos.

I play SH5 for years now with TWOS and it works perfectly..For me it's the best subsim :up:
