I finally purchased SH4

popcorn2721 · 02-04-09, 12:22 PM

Ok...maybe it was wrong but I finally purchased SH4 (retail) out of fear that I would not be able to purchase it agian without searching online. I was rather disapointed with it right out of the box and have yet to fire a single torp. I might put some mods in later but Im back to SH3... and looking at installing GWX3, after I wrap up my latest campaign. Its been a long time since the eye candy and game play were on such far ends of the spectrum as they are in SH4.

The Modders have fixed alot of things in SH4.

I hope you bought SH4 Gold uboat missons 1.5

Just about all the big mods are based on 1.5

I know exactly how you feel....

I went through the same thing about a month or so ago. Looks great, plays poorly. I even tried all of the major mods and could not get into any of them like I can with GWX. Im not sure if its the game itself, or if its the different theatres. For some reason the cold dark atlantic waters and U-boats seem more appealing then the pretty blue pacific and with fancy fleet boats.

*sigh*

How I wish my machine could support SH4.

Maybe I'm just weird, but I had lots of fun with SH4, even though I could only play from the map/attack rooms.

Hopefully I can upgrade in time for GWX4

That Japanese campaign coming out also looks interesting.

Same here. I load it up and look at it on a regular basis, and play the Navigation Scenario over and over.

GWX4 was announce months ago. Whether it's actually being worked on yet is a secret.

And no, I'm not in on it - I'm just hoping.
