Old subsimmer returning

poveglia · 05-26-24, 08:32 AM

Hello everyone. I am returning after several years of being away from subsimming. It's been so long I've forgotten most things about the modding scene for it. As I understand it, Wolves of Steel is a modpack geared more towards beginners? If memory serves, it was a modpack by a fella names Sober that offered the most gritty realistic experience for SH5. Or do I have this all wrong. I'm looking to punish myself with a realistic, challenging experience with a full overhaul. What is my best option?

Hey poveglia..

Greetings... all first welcome to the best website Subsim Radio Room...after this silent race....

Yes Sober is still the hardest... but it hasn't been updated for a while..
You have Wolf of Steel 2.25 which is still updated... from time to time...

But if you are looking for difficulty I recommend Wolpack by Onkel Neal you will be delighted I think...

Hey thanks for the reply. Sobers not being updated in a while, does that mean some aspects arent working correctly any longer? I guess what I'm really looking for is the best one for straight realism and authenticity.

Yes Sober remains the most difficult... but that does not mean that it does not work correctly... it will depend on your personal assembly... the possibilities are numerous according to my first approach...
Personally I haven't tested this one yet... it'll be soon if I find time to create a custom construction maybe this summer we'll see..
THEBERBSTER recommend it to me...Peter never disappoints me so we'll see...
The Sober mod doesn't seem to play much here for a while now...most of the players don't like full hardcore...
Personally I like the challenge..the assistant is not for me..hahaha.

Oh really? I would think most players here would be really into sobers mod! This is the epicenter for subsimming after all, no?

you are probably right about Sober... but I see very little feedback on the subject on the forum over the last 3 years... a lot of players seem to be put off by complicated assemblies in modding... afterward everyone does as they do wish...
