I was disappointed with SH 3 as well, I felt the same about yearning to sink Jap ships again in the Pacific. I probably logged all of 2 hours on SH 3.

I grew up playing GATO, Silent Service, then later on...SH 3.

Once I saw a movie of SH 4 a couple of weeks ago, I had to have it.

I've installed the mods:
360 Degree Bearing
Living Breathing Ocean
Natural Sinking Model

I only have 1GB RAM (I spent the rest of the money on a AMD x2 chip, mobo and Nvidia card last year) but the game runs very well. It locks up occassionally, and I'm sure I can work that out (most likely hardware cooling problem for me,) I just save often.

I started my first career with Easy difficulty and will probably stay there for quite some time. I'll be lucky if I get to play 5 hrs per week, but I'm excited about it.

I sank about 20,000 tons off the coast of Honshu last night so that made me feel better about getting slapped around by the destroyers for two day prior to that.

Kudos to Ubisoft for the game, and all of the modders out there working their butts off.
