He does not, he just has an axe to grind. At least he did not launch into another speech about SH5 being an affront to the U.S. Constitution...

All of us subsimmers who have played SH3, SH4 and gave SH5 an objective chance realize SH5 is a significant improvement in the franchise. Yes, it has bugs and some unfinished aspects, but modders have already provided workarounds for the worst bugs and SH5 is perfectly playable. In MP and single player missions, it is a blast.
Everyone here now conveniently forgets all the bugs that plagued SH3 upon release: escorts firing on each other, ships capsizing or sinking for no reason, entire convoys being frozen in the Atlantic beacause you saved to close to them, DDs sinking after ramming your boat, your officers being exhausted mid-patrol because there were no enough slots in the crew management page to properly rest them, etc., etc.,
The difference of course, was that back then, everyone was willing to give SH3 a chance because it was a significant advancement in subsims. Most posters were interested in seeing how you could improve the sim, not destroy it.
Now on the SH5 forum, you have a group of posters who do not own the game, do not play it and want to destroy it to further their own anti-DRM agenda, irrespective of any objective facts you may present regarding the improvements and qualities of the game.
I spent some time recently on the Ubi AC2 forum to see what the atmosphere was like there and imagine my surprise when I saw that most threads were about the game and not about DRM..
. These kids have a very mature attitude and show quite clearly that most of the rabid anti-DRM crowd here are just a collection of cranky old codgers.
