Worried about SH4(dev-team)

Avatar · 05-30-07, 01:01 PM

Hello,
I just read the thread concerning the SH4 patch 1.3 and there is a quote in there talking about the future of SH4 being up to US(dev-team) and YOU(subsim community).

I just wanted to let you guys know that I completely support silent hunter 4. I've been waiting for years, well, since silent hunter commander edition, for a new subsim in the pacific. This is exactly what I am wanting.

Dont worry, I havent abandoned ship and will not do so. I'm sure there are plenty of people here that arent going to jump ship either. I will continue to support you guys even when silent hunter 5 comes out.

I guess what I am really trying to say is that there is no "us against you" here at subsim.com.

peace-out!

Agree. Is the original poster a member of the dev team? :hmm:

I think the thread was simply making the point that Ubisoft needed to hear rational, reasoned arguments for 1.3 from outside the company, and not just the Devs asking them to allocate internal resources for 1.3.

UBI need to hear arguments for 1.3 ?!!!! No they dont, they need to stop releasing games in early alpha state just for profit and instead shift their efforts to releasing products which reach a minimum level of quality. The notion that they need to hear arguments to fix their product is absurd, the mentality of a corporate monster.

Sigh.....what is this world coming to, and to think are fore fathers died so we could have this crap ?!!! They must be turning in their graves.

Christ, calm down already. Yes, SH4 has its issues, but calling it an early alpha is just plain wrong.

daft,you are correct. It an unfinished Beta, and everyone
on this earth, has a right to their opinion with out having "Christ" ! Thrown Vainly in their face. daft

Forefathers? wtf!

*Is confuzzled*

Of course they do, and I expressed mine. If the use of the word Christ in any way offended you (or anyone else), I appologize profusely. I'm just getting a bit fed up with the constant complaining. I think most people got the point about a month ago. Oh, and an unfinished beta would probably make it an alpha release. Just so you know.

Well....I certainly didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!

The game was certainly unfinished at release. That much is not in doubt as two significant patches were issued soon after the release of the game. Ubisoft just needed convincing by a preponderance of the evidence that a third patch was required rather than wanted.

Once the case was made convincingly to them, they reacted by authorizing the third patch. Drama Queens were never needed in the equation, and they always hinder rather than help.

Although I hope I'm not a drama queen (please do call me Loretta), I do understand your stance on this TDK. However, I've worked in software development for the last 20 oddd years and i've never heard of a company who was not aware their product was duff and need of a patch. A simple chat with the QA dept is all that is necessary. I'm sure Ubi have a QA department, thus i'm sure they were well aware of the game bugs even before we were - i.e prior to release.

Therefore, there is no argument, in my oppinion, that they needed convincing of the need for a patch....in fact they would have been aware of the need prior to us even being aware.
