SH4 worth it?
Good evening all you happy submarine drivers. I have been snooping around on this forum for awhile but now i decided to actually register and post my first thread...cause i have a question to ask from you guys who know about these things soo much more than me.
I have been playing SH3 for couple of days and so far i like it very much. Now i am thinking about purchasing SH4 but certain sources tell me it is not worth it and that SH3 is so much better. Now i wan't to ask your opinions oh gurus of submarine simulators. I know SH4 was disapointment in it's original form but i am speaking about both games with addons installed. Is SH4 worth it with addons if i like SH3 or will i be happier with just concentrating on SH3? Thank you in advance! |
Welcome Aboard
Win,or lose, you might die tryng. Beauty is to the eye of beholder.:salute:

Depends on what you like really... SH4 is graphicly more beautiful but SH3/GWX has better game play and a better career IMO. It also depends on your preferences as to if you prefer US Fleet boats in the Pacific or German U-Boats in the Atlantic... I'd say give it try if you're interested.
Good luck and Welcome Aboard! :arrgh!: |
SH4 worth it?
no |
Out of the box it had it's issues, not unlike 3 for that matter. But patched and now modded it ( for both the PTO and ATO ) is an enjoyable sim in it's own right.
Do yourself a favor and check out some of the older and current threads in that forum as well, SH4. @ Irish, you care to elaborate a little more, after all this is a new member. Thanks. |
It's a Sub-Sim. Of course it's worth it!
See what it feels like to be on the winning side for a change! JCC |
No one can deny that SH4 is a great sub sim it is totally different then SH3 and now has many add-on versions to keep you amused.
but is not for me I am waiting for SH5 this i will have to try :salute: |
Welcome Aboard :salute:

They are both good sim & our modders make them better. I cut my sub teeth on SHIII so I prefer that. I also have SHIV which I play once in a while so not to bruis mu US Citizenship.

If you perfer uboats... stay with sh3...
If you want american fleet boats... try sh4. |
my preference is for u-boats in the atlantic, however i've recently started playing sh4 because of all the sub films i've been watching recently, those 40's/50's films were absolutely cracking! and i'm now in need of a balao class sub to swim around in ;)
manual targeting with a Fleet boat is easy enough but firing a spread is murder. |

Thank you for all the nice replys.
I have gwx3 with SH3 already. I never even tried it without so i can't really say how it improves it cause i never saw the stock one. But i must say i like it so it must be good. :) The reason i am asking about SH4 is that i am a poor student and don't have that much money to spend on games and i was thinking it's useless to buy it if i just play it couple of times before leaving it for SH3. It's not that pricey anymore i see but one gets lots of food with that money anyway. |
Leave SH4 on the shelf.
In my opinion SH3 + GWX, or NYGM, or LSH3 or WAC is much more interesting because you're the 'underdog' :D BTW, Welcome! Subsim.com is the right place to be. :yep: |
