Anyways, I'll just have fun with PA and Sh-1 while the rest of the world plays SH-3 and Dangerous Waters...lol!
Well. yes, the world and his dog did beat a massive path to SHIII and DW, but now the froth has died down a bit there is a significant trickle of folk back to SH2/DC ( or least playing both as in my case )

SH3 is a very impressive piece of kit but there are aspects of SH2/DC that players miss ..... ......human DDs in multiplayer , and the sheer scope of vessels and options available. It is possible to sail as virtually any nationality and there are complete mod conversions for Italian (Betasom) , American( PA) , and partial conversions for British (Upholder) subs. Using the excellent Kriegstanz its easy to sail out as a jap sub hunting down a carrier force.

For a while the latest NVidia drivers were incompatible with SH2/DC but apparently the newest are no longer a problem.

This is just one impressive mod and should win some sort of award
PA was voted best naval mod, 2004, by SimHQ.
