SH3 vs SH4?

taukarrie · 02-24-10, 11:47 AM

Ive been playing SH3 for a few weeks now and im really happy with it. I was thinking about trying SH4 but i was wondering what the general concensus is about how it stacks up against SH3. Im sure the visuals are prettier but im more concerned about the preservation of or improvment upon some of SH3's features.

These are some of the game features ive enjoyed most about SH3 and would like to see revisited in SH4 to really consider giving it a go:

- a long career campaign. the large number of increasingly challenging patrols in SH3 from 1940-1945 were really satisfying.

- dynamic crew. I especially enjoyed the ability to enlist specific crew members and to control their development with promations, medals, and special training.

- Upgradable subs. Im sure SH4 features a number of subs but i really liked how you are able to purchase equipment upgrades and different weapon types as you play through a campaign in SH3.

- Scalable Realism. This was a great system in SH3. It allowed me to start as a complete novice and work my way gradually up the realism scale as i gained skill all the way up to a very challenging 100% realism.
