SH5 by far is in the worst state.

It seems UBI was determined to see how incomplete of a game they could release before NO ONE bought it. Each release of the SH series has progressively been worse and worse.

Could someone... anyone, please tell me what, in the name of God, is the point of this thread?

Seriously, what could possibly come out of this that has not already been re-hashed about a million times over?

Maybe to make fun of the bad grammer in the title thread?

Just Kiddin.

It's one of those "look at me, I don't like this game, I knew it would probably suck but I got it anyways and now I'm angry! WHO's WITH ME!?"

Sorry but you're doing something wrong then. I'm still using 1.0 and it's very much playable.

I think with SH5 it all depends on your internet connection, i couldn't play it for more than 20 min before it would kicked me out, then about a week after 5 came out my main pc died and i kinda just curled up in a ball and cried. So i reverted back to SH4 and now usng an older pc that can play SH4 well but would die also if i tried to lplay Sh5 with it.

Some have no problems at all with the game. So i put it down to my sh*tty connection cause the main pc could handle it by far


SH2 was buggy, I remember playing the mod Aces of the Pacific for months on end and another mod where it was close to a dynamic campaign as it could get - ''Aces Random Campaign 2.0''. What Dowly said also the waves motion in SH2 were the best yet

Isn't this a rhetorical question? You would better ask: How much more disappointing than SHIV was SHV?

No, it's not. Rhetorical questions don't require an answer, whereas this poll is a scientific poll asking all those who are fully qualified to know, having examined all of the code of the SH series games, which was the most bugged.

Hey! Get your own poll and stop trying to hijack this one. But your question is completely pointless as it is not at all quantitive or qualitive. For example, if you had a poll that asked 'How much more disappointing than SHIV was SHV?' then I would answer not at all, as your question was biassed and badly worded and was not trying to gauge the reception of SH5 turthfully. I could have had such a low expectation for SH5, after having received SH4 that I was expecting a box that went bing and did not CTD as the ultimate subsim after SH4. But your poll question would not catch this point of view. Such a shame, as your poll question would not have captured why the respondents had given that answer and would not really be of any benefit to anyone at all. Would 'not at all' have been one of your poll options?

Now, on with the expert code analyst views for the current poll.

All but 1 and 3. I don't have 5. I hated the campaign in 2 and the drama to get it to market, plus the killer ai. And 4, where to start. Atleast four is fun with the mods, I never really went back to 2.
