Did They Debug Silent Hunter 5 Yet?

When first released Silent Hunter 5 had review scores like 6/10 and complaints of massive bugs so I never tried it. However, I keep my hopes alive telling myself Falcon 4.0 started out horrible too and with time became a jewel.

Tell me if SH 5 is ready to sail and if I should give it a try or do the problems persist and I should try Grey Wolves instead.

In short, No. Ubisoft Dropped SH5 like a sack of potatoes. The last patch came out a few weeks after initial release and official support was dropped last year. All patches, fixes and such beyond v1.2 are from the mod community. If you want to play SH5 and you have played any other game in the series, accept the fact that you will mod this game to make it playable.

I just wish I had a dollar for every time someone has come on these boards asking that question without reading any of the threads. Yes, a lot of great mods have made SH5 very playable, and that more than a year ago. The DRM was removed several months ago. A lot of people have been enjoying it for a very long time now.
