SH5 - do I want it?

[RickR]

I loved SH3 and join this community when I was playing it, long ago. When SH4 came out, I refused to purchase it due to it being connect to STEAM as I have had too many bad experiences with Mr. STEAM and will not use any product with it - period - so you can sticks and stones me or throw crap at me but no, no, never.

I miss my sub sim and was really pleased to find out that they had released SH5 in March 2010...I just found out today. I realize that it is tied to Ubisoft server also and one must be connected to the internet to even play it. I have another game like this called Rise of Flight and it hasn't turned out too bad but they are a small company while Ubi is big. I realize there could be problems...

So, Questions...
1. March 2010 to now is a lot of time to work out bugs and improve it with patches etc... How is it? I know, big open question...just your personal opinions will do.
2. What problems does it have that are induced by the internet connection?

It's been a long time since I was in the Radio Room, a real long time and I hope you all have some good news for me like "Buy it now, Rick!" but give your honest opinion...
