Is nobody at all having fun? I'm out here having my behind clobbered by three great DD's twisting and turning. I've already written off the targets I hit with one torpedo and got pinned down for.
I'm having a great time out here! Patch? Who cares!!!! Well, I do. I want the devs to get the patch as perfect as they can and if they're until March doing it it doesn't bother me a bit. It's much more important to me that Kentucky Fried Meatball (don't you dare doubt his "habilities") is wearing a tutu on his 300 pound frame and looking pretty ridiculous. I enjoy that almost as much as I enjoy the game right now.
So take your time devs. SH4 is a great simulation/game just as it is. There's no real need for this patch: there is no emergency. You're in the bonus round! Make that patch the best work you are capable of producing and put it out when you're satisfied.
Those of us who really love the game are having fun!
Crysis: another stupid jump around like a Mexican jumping bean doing flips and kill everything in front of you game. I just received Unreal Tournament III as a gift. Same garbage. Multiplayer (here come the cheats!!!!), capture the flag (damn that's original!), last survivor wins (best cheater). Why waste all that ability just to copy the original Wolfenstein from 15 years ago, or Renegade? I'm tired of Crysis before it's released. Bet I've played every nuance of it before. I'm buying the lighted Saitek Eclipse II keyboard instead to preserve my night vision in SH4!
