I too have given it a strong 7, would have gone higher if it had been more completed and if they had kept the UI and controls and such from SH3. And also of course if not for DRM. But it is what it is, and so far except for once it has worked flawlessly with the exception of what happened the other day but that was on my end and system, not with UBI or the sim.

But man I just am blown away by the graphics, the entire boat modeled and able to wander through it and on it from bow to stern.
As I came into port at Kiel on this first trip out as a first officer, I kept getting an uncontrollable smile at the stunning sights. And so much harbor traffic and escorts around I had to keep a real sharp eye out, in fact had to come to a stop nearly as one DD crossed my course ahead of me.
I counted ten ships in all between DD's and merchants. as I made my way in.
Never ever saw this in SH3, nor have I seen the sea so well modeled in any sea going sim. Oh, and then there is on top of that,(or under rather) the undersea world as well.

And then once docked, and after the meeting with the base commander and my Captain, and being informed of my promotion to Captain and given the boat and crew I was having such a nice time wandering around the pen.
This is such a far far greater thing than SH3 ever hoped to be.
And I think that once the patches come along, it'll become a 10 without a doubt.
