Back when SH4 U-Boat Missions was released as a separate add-on, I tried to get it from Steam. Steam refused to sell it to me because I don't live in the United States. Apparently they don't deal with the Sovereign Nation of Utah. The fact is that the girl at CS was very helpful. She couldn't figure out what the problem was, but she spent a good deal of her time trying.

From what I've read, modding a Steam install doesn't work with some mods so I think the DVD is the best option.

For obvious reasons I wouldn't know anything about that.

I remember SH4 not having any significant mods for a while after release, the game looked better than SH3 but the TDC drove me nuts, I was a pro at SH3 and I felt like banging my head against the wall, trying to figure out a firing solution for convoy attacks.

You have me there. I am absolutely terrible at math, especially the kind required to set up attacks like that. What I miss most from SH3 is the WE Assistance. In SH4 I just have to live with the auto-targeting.

I think I watched a youtube video of SH5 or some news story that got me back into 'the mood' of subsimming.

I haven't played in a long time now. I love SH3, but my old single-core rig won't run FlakMonkey's New Interiors or IABL's Merchant Fleet Mod, and without those I just can't seem to get excited anymore, especially the MFM. I've put in so many hours adding ship names to SH3C, and most of those go with ships from the MFM.

I'm a bit bummed that it seems like SH5 will be the last in the series but it looks like the game is being enjoyed by lots of people now that it has had time to mature with the modding community.

I don't really care. I still play AOD and SH1, and I'll play SH3 and SH4 forever if I ever get a decent computer.

I've always associated you with the top brass around here

Well, I've gained some authority and position over the years, but the real top brass is just one guy, Neal Stevens by name. Subsim is his baby, and everybody else is just helping out.
