One the fear I had of the one or two looping animations going on forever looks to be real

As for the rest, don't forget that the people at gamestar are very very likely not to be some sub sims enthusiast and therefore, it's biased and of little use to us (hell, judging by the screenshots and the lazer deckgun showing through, they're playing at very beginner level!! so how would you expect a detailed account on the manual TDC and overall realistic behavior of SH5 world!?). I remember from general gaming french websites that SH4 had some very good reviews, at least as good as SH3 but useless for a simmer! It's like when I buy flightsims... I don't even bother to read general gaming magazines reviews as they're useless as to cover facts usefull to me, an hardcore/mid-hardcore simmer! Better wait till some review emerge from a simulation dedicated website, as people from general gaming are FPS/RPg/action players and often don't really knows what they're talking about or are overly happy with it just because it looks very realistic to their ignorant eyes, or worst, because they just playtested it for a mere 3 hours (often the case, it shows off through their reviews). With all due respect, to each his own, as we say...

If it was a preview from simhq.com or combatsim.com, i would have gladly taken a second look at it...
