Silent Hunter 4 on Hooked Gamers
 

/deleted

This is very encouraging, especially after the beta tester, yesterday,
said it wasn't ready yet.

To be honest, as much as I'm anticipating SH4 being released, I wouldn't lose any sleep if Ubi announced a release delay--if it meant we'd get a more polished product in the end.

I agree Flintlock...............:rock:

Delays are never bad things, as long as the product is released in the end (unlike poor old Stars! Supernova Genesis, for example:cry:).

Silent Hunter 4 is going to be so awesome.

SH3 was released in fairly good shape. I see no reason for this to be any different. Did the next video come out? Seems like Neil hyped it up quite a while ago ... still not here?

Here's the most recent dev diary, though it's not in the normal video form.
It's at the bottom of the page.

Ugh :88)

Is it too much to ask for a review that is written by someone who, I don't know, can actually write something of substance? Seriously, every game "review" I come across nowadays appears to be typed by gushing twelve year old fan boy.

Are there no professionals working in this field? If no professionals, would someone who isn't willing to prostitute themselves writing favourable reviews just to continue receiving free games please show themselves!

I'd be happy to do a little review at release. I did one for IL-2 back when it first came out, but the website I was working for didn't want to post it because it was too "in-depth" (6-8 pages...probably the last time I'll ever wirte a review that long too. lol). Not to mention, it should be pretty evidient by now I don't exactly "cater" to software companies. lol I like to think I pretty much call it like I see it, rather than how it is meant to be seen.

Don't think you are correct here. MSGalileo, who posting the shots stated that the build they had - which was missing some key functionality - was received last week. Then another poster grandly claimed - "well then the code is far from ready". That was simply his interpretation based on a version that could have been weeks older than the current build. Then, in another post, he stated,
So...they are not part of the beta group and are using a demo copy that could be - and probably is - weeks older than the latest version.

Er no? It is all about delivering readers to the advertisers.

Man, what a cheesy article... Poor writing and despite his claims to be a sub-sim vet, this guy sees to know nothing about WWII subs plus makes no useful comparisons between SHIV and any previous sub-sim.

He said their version is from last week, so how many builds have come out since last week? I am guessing not many if any.

Getting sort of close to release to start sending out new beta builds isn't it, Ubisoft? lol

I still don't think this game is coming out this month. I hope I am proved wrong though. :)

Which is precisely why I bought all the games I reviewed, and reviewed all the games I bought...for free.

I said whatever I wanted about the games. If they didn't like what I said, they could go pound sand.

He stated that they received it last week - not that the version was dated as of last week - two VERY different things. I'm deducing that this version is the same one that Neal saw, the same one that the German Martime site saw and the same one that the guy who wrote this review saw. And this version is some months old.

Trust me - if the game were to be delayed we would have heard by now.
