Thanks for the campaign image, I did post your credit at the end of the review.



Yes, I left out a lot of things. My first draft was almost twice as long, but like I said, it's a review, not a buglist But I did mention #1, 3, 4, and 8 in my review, check again.




Eh? Aces received a 90 from me on the original review. Check the curve, it takes 7 points away for age. I probably should restate that, I no longer think it's practical to curve old scores.



Thanks, appreciate your thoughts. I had more material about the DRM in my notes, but I decided that it did not add anything to the review of the game. And that's what this is, a review of the game. In my playing experience with SH5, there was only one instance where the Ubi servers were not responding. Other than that, the DRM did not make the sub dive deeper, make the crew smarter, did not affect the AI, etc. If you think I should write an editorial about the DRM, that's another thing. Thanks

PS: thanks for spotting that typo, flakmonkey

Neal.... I did see you mentioned these but felt it was only in passing. I do agree that is you would have listed all the MAJOR faults with the sim your review would have been 20 pages long...lol. This is actually a sad state of the game if this is the fact (and it is).

I also meant to say with those items PLUS yours ....I disagree with your 7/10 rating. IF UBI fixes these issues I would give SH5 a 8/10... but as the game stands now (espeically with 2 weekends that I couldnt play the game due to DRM) I give it a 3/10.

I do like your editorial Idea about the DRM....
