Yup. That's exactly what they said about the multiplayer aspect of Sh2. Until some members of Subsim came together and, with Neal's financial help, fixed it.

Perhaps I can help you with your wondering. No one around here is defending Sh5. However, some of the people here see the potential and are trying to do something positive to try and fix it. If we are able to get an official patch... great. if we can't then the modders here have already fixed most of the real issues.

Some people here believe that if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. They not only believe it, they put their time, their considerable talent and tons of effort into it.

But thanks for your opinion.

Yes. That is what makes SubSim as great as it is. Where others complain and deride, our members work to solve, to repair, to overcome. I couldn't imagine this community simply giving up and moving on. We only spite ourselves.

For the individuals who come to complain, say 'nay' and accuse us of dishonesty and foolhardy support, I tell you that Silent Hunter 5 will get there. We are hoping it will do so with UbiSoft's support. However, this community will do it with or without; they always find a way. It is what makes them great. It is why people come here. And when they do get results, and you come back to sheepishly download their mods, we won't put our fingers in your face and belittle you, as you have done us; we're better than that. But you will know, and so will we.
