As i am just about to start my first patrol in SH 3, wanted to ask that for how long have you guys being playing this great sim?

Just for about three months now. But already I can't see a ship on tv without starting to estimate the AoB, and how much tonnage she'll get me.

Happy hunting!

Looks I acquired it in Nov 2009, so... almost a year and a half.

I bought SH3 shortly after release but it wasn't until winter 2007 that I had a computer that could actually play it with reasonable frame rates and without graphics issues. Say a bit over four-years now.

Instant classic in my mind. It's been on my hard drive ever since.

I play other titles from time to time, but I keep coming back to SH3...

On and off?
A long long time.

17 March 2005 (still have the receipt)

I believe this was very close to the day it was released.

Howard313 · 04-05-11, 07:34 PM

I'd say it's going on about a month now and still going strong.

I bought it when it was first released after following all the pre release threads here at SubSim and the UBI forum, been playing it ever since. In my fourth war campaign at Wolves at War now.

From 2008...Never I played the stock game, from the first time, GWX. And after, GWX and LSH3, with many many additionals mods.

(Also I played FS2004 and Close Combat series games in those times). Now, my only games installed are GWX, LSH3, SH4 TMO rsrdc and SH4 OM OMEGU. And a month of SH5 (deleted...).

Regards.

Almost a year.

And still no manual targeting!

Late 2005.

For my son's Christmas.

I guess I should give it to him, one of these days.
