Greetings SH5 fans,
I do not post often on the forum, but I do read much of what is written here, and I do enjoy these titles very much.
For better, or worse, I decided some time ago to buy this title on release, and today I picked a copy up at a futureshop here in Halifax.
So far I like what I see, but I am just scratching the surface. I think with some tender loving mods, this will be a great package. I'm enjoying it now, so just think what 4-6 months will bring for improvements. I had to lay SH3 to rest many months ago due to a 64-bit system upgrade, so being back in my backyard ocean again feels good!!!
A couple of simple questions:
-is there a tracking external view similar to the "," and "." in 3 and 4? I notice on some of the Ubi promo vids this camera view is present.
-Also ,is anyone aware of what the biggest system HOG option(s) are in the menus?
-finally, is their any other way of getting the german voices into the game, other than the initial install?
That's it so far, appreciate any suggestions, and I will try to be more active on forum here in the future.
As a side note, the drm thing is not a problem for me. My internet is always up, and reliable. Besides, if Ubi never patch out the drm, and even lose their servers some time down the road (years?), I will have already extracted my money out of the title 10 fold by this point. On that note though, I'm optimistic they will turf it soon.

See you out on the North Atlantic! Cheers Shoopzee.
