Also how's SH5 doing? I mean lots of people are complaining about the DRM stuff but I am more interested if the game has become very very playable and bug free.

thanks...
In stock SH5 you can not teleport to different stations, you have to walk there. Which i like doing (seems more realistic).

BUT TheDarkWraith has released a terrific mod "NewUIs_TDC_4_1_0_TheDarkWraith" Which allows you to teleport to stations and brings back many of the officer options. Plus many other great additions.

This is a must have mod. makes the game as playable as SH3/SH4.

I have never had any problems with the DRM. some have but as a whole its not to bad. I would prefer it wasnt there but as i said i have not had any problems connecting to Ubisoft servers.


Before the patch the game was broken and the bugs were gamebraking.
Most of the bugs were fixed in the 1.2 patch. And the bugs that are still there arn't game brakers.

This game will only get better as the people modding it learn how to solve the few problems left.

The main problems for me are :-

1.Lack of variaty of merchant ships..... Modders are unable to import ships correctly ATM. hopefully this will soon be overcome.
2.No kesmarine map grid..... Cant believe it doesnt have this. hope someone will put this in soon.
3.The RPG style crew management and magic skills. I just dont like it.

So as you can see the problems are minor now.

This game is as playable as sh3/SH4, but with better graphics.
