as for the ubm ad-on, well thats just it,  the uboat expansion has nothing to do with uboats
besides the name there is very little in it about uboats
it only adds 2 uboats to the game and none of the ones you know from sh3. it does allow you to try a 9d2 uboat german campaign if you want but there are no german single missions or patrols that come with it.
what you do get from it is a complete tune up for the sh4 game engine so it loads faster and the game works better along with fixes for some game issues so you really get your $10 worth and i wouldnt be surprised if 95% of everyone using it never plays uboats.
to be honest sh4 doesnt do uboats very well and snorkels dont even work and the mod that makes them work doesnt do anything because co2 cant be refreshed by snorkel due to a hard coded issue.
using the operation monsun mod does give you a real german side to the game but there are still issues with it that because of game limitations even with all his talent, lurker couldnt resolve. |
Wow... didnt know that. So the more I read about 1.5 the more I think Ubi just used it to suck an extra $24 (when first released I think) to $10 now out of folks for a patch. Bad form IMHO..... but anyway enough griping.
I did buy 1.5 (should be here Monday) finally.... if for nothing else to get it through the clickable link up top and support Neal. Looking forward to trying TMO and other mods.
