Default Do you still play SH3?

Inquisitive minds would like to know.

It's a simple and straightforward question... PLEASE VOTE.

Ditto what Takeda Shingen said. My problem is, I spend too much time surfing the forum and I end up with no time to play the game

I just had to dump it off my system so I could run another game. I really need a new hard drive. Not to worry though. Ill come back to it like I have done many times in the past.

Yes, I still play it. What keeps me facinated, of course, is all the spectacular work put into this sim from the MODDING community.

In some respects the modders are like the "Borg"...once SHIII infected the collective, they have morfed it into something useful.

Almost daily for 2005 [it] has continually changed...for the better. 2006 is shaping up well also.

Tnx,

Yes, I do but not nearly as fervently as I used to, guess the novelty has worn off ages ago. Although just in terms of out-of-the-box plus patches it's really great stuff, I've started to play other games a lot more these days as well. One could say I'm taking more shore leave while waiting for some mods and SH4, continuing my current career when in the right mood.

No, I´ve stopped playing it about two or three months ago, one reason was that it became too repetitive.

I started back up after a couple of months away. Its better than it was when I put it away. The MODS make this game so much better than the original out of the box.

Pretty much on a daily basis ever since the game came out. The never ending parade of mods is what keeps me plus the community on this forum. If it wasn't for both I'd be long gone.

I used to be into flight sims big time but the their forum community is nowhere near the guys here. IMHO

Yeah, no flight-simming community compares to this.



Btw, if you guys are wondering why I would make such a lame poll question (think about it: if all you did was visit this thread, then you have to vote), it's because I'm trying to see if the community still has any interest in SH3, to determine how much will new mods be appreciated.

Keep voting! Thanks!

Just think of how many mods would not have had to be made if only ubi could have given the Dev team 2-3 more months!

I would play it more if it was in the pacific & I agree with Gizzmoe
its too repetitive. In fact I am still on the 1st campaign 7 patrols 3 ships sunk & all the medals but 1 & it keeps up like this it will be collecting dust & I'll play Pacific Aces.
