Just play the uboat expansion (like 1 or 2 missions out of Penang) without any mods and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Now I need you all to get busy on porting over the Type II and VIIC!
So are you saying with the Uboat mod (the one you purchase right?) makes 1) the AI better and 2) fixes the never ending same missions over and over (that was the number 1 killer of SH4 for me).

If yes to both I will be purchasing the mod when I get bored with GWX3 and will try it.
Well the ship AI evade logic is far superior. So yes to item 1. In SH3 the ships don't even have AI evade logic, they just continue on course in a very predictable "S" pattern.

I believe they fixed that repetitive mission bug in a patch that pre-dated the uboat addon (like 1.3 or 1.4) the uboat addon brings you up to patch 1.5 and includes all previous patches. So I'm pretty sure that's a yes on item 2 as well.

I wouldn't buy the DL version though... I'd just get the SH4 Gold edition so you have a nice patched up version all on a disk.
