- I also really want 5, since it deals with the atlantic side of things which I am more interested in since I for some reason hate US subs of WWII(Something about the look of each one just irks my nerves )

-However, from what I have seen, the graphics seem very computer intensive and from what Ive seen on some peoples sigs, I assume Id need a beastly computer to run this game, which I dont have, what I do have is a computer that runs flight simulator x just fine with medium to medium high for all the graphics settings.

-Thus I come to the prediciment wether it would be better suited for me to get Silent Hunter 4 instead? seeing as how it is older and may run at higher graphics easier??
Hey Casey,

I came up in the SH things with a SH-III i've found for 9 bucks. Then i've found SH-IV for twice the price of volume III =)

Then finally i've bought SH5 brand new and expensive.

My 1st feeling with SH5 was litterally that one; i'll get this game back at the store (having so much fun with the other two, but that one out of the box is just really really poor, on top of that in V1.0 which was rather a 0.5).

So as of now, i really enjoy SH5 with some mods you'll find right here in the download section; TheDarkWraith NewUI-TDC which i think is in version 4.2.0 right now is just hammering everything. Only with this the game is already 10 times better.

I've also added another one which is called Command Keys 1.03 which i guess the name is self explanatory enough.

Concerning Hardware matters on your system, just ask questions in the Hardware sub forum around here

So for me, SH5 + TDW NUITDC + CMDKYES = great fun.
Hope that helps
cheers,
m.
