SH5 for $1, today 8/18/12 only!
 
It's at ubi.com, digital download, although you can order the DVD for an extra $6.99. Don't know if it's the same thing as boxed DVDs though. Better hurry!

Would the ubi.com digital version work on all mods?

Even at $1.00 I'd still get the boxed DVD. There can ge problems with a download down the road someday. And it can get pretty ugly too.

Also the $1 version is the collectors edition, but it dont come with the official strategy guide that it says is included, i would also like to know if it works with all mods, i have been told it does but not sure, i did just make a post, waiting on a reply now.

All mods will work with the downloaded version:up:

If you download the steam version and have to start the game through steams .exe - the patch mod by TDW will not work
So do not get the steam version

The big question you should be asking is if it can be patched with my patcher :yep: The stock game has many what I call game-breaker bugs in it that my patcher can fix :up:

It's not a mod so no. You'll find it in the SH5 Mods Workshop forum

Daytrader 08-18-12 03:47 PM

Ah just found it, i note it says the below, i only have the download version of game thou. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=192374

Nice video, so your now saying that i cant install the TheDarkWraith patches ?

Sundog 08-18-12 04:41 PM

I have the $1 version bought today, tried the patcher and ran into an error, something like the patching was expecting something in the file and it didn't quite match (bare with me, I'm not a software engineer), so I don't think you can patch this version.
