Would you recommend...

...playing the u-boat(s) in this expansion to someone who is already enjoying SH3 + GWX? :hmm:

I mean to ask this in the most simple way.

Are there things I would enjoy more?

Things I would miss terribly?

Does it give the same feel?

Does it "deliver"?

Worth it?

I have no idea and don't follow website reviews too much.

Thanks

I would.

Since I got the addon, I have finally removed SH3 from my computer and freed up ALOT of space.

There are things you would enjoy more, and there are things you would miss. But overall, it's worth the upgrade IMO.

Best thing to do is buy it and try it out for yourself!

I have both on
Well I would but the uboat add on only covers the Indian Ocean so while you get to sail in the improved game engine tis not the cold rough Atlantic of SH3

Play both umm or all 3

To me, SH4 is still a work in progress. The Pacific game is really very good, modded to taste, while the U Boat game is still in its infancy. Give the modders a reasonable amout of time and the U Boat game will also be very good in this game.

Still have SH3 installed, and SH4 1.5. Also a 1.4 install still there as well. I can see myself eventually getting into the U-Boat add on ( once it's modded to full Atlantic ), but for now if I want U-Boats I'll stick with SH3.

SH4 up to this point and the foreseeable future, is about the PT for me.

I can say that it delivers. But the Pacific experience is far, far from the fatalistic death spiral of the Atlantik. This is a South Seas vacation featuring tonnage galore. You will seldom fear for your life and T3 Tankers frolic in the warm seas for your benefit.There are goodies you are used to that aren't here yet. For instance, we are waiting for the OLC GUI to make its appearance.

U-Boats in the Pacific will never take the place of U-Boats in the Atlantik no matter how good the game. SH3 lives on and deserves hard drive real estate!
