Is this game really worth the buy?
Hello!
I am interested in downloading this game right now but am a bit confused when am looking at the game reviews giving just a 3 stars for this game compare to SH3 5 stars, so is this game really good, or I shouldn't bother buying it. Need your input and comments to help me out to take the decision, if I buy the game please. Thank you! |

Yes, if you use the mods. Played both and I prefer SH4 over three by far, but that could be taste. I think the mods are much better.

Everything about SH4 is better. From the graphics to the theatre of play. I would suggest you get the current revision game and the expansion pack. Having been a former submariner I get far more fun and satisfaction from SH4 than any other sim and that includes SC and DW. It is a hunt...Also SH3 you have to babysit your crew, which would not be the CO's job to begin with. I have no idea why they put that in the game to begin with. Also keep in mind this is a sim/game. I would play the stock expansion pack and get your feet wet (NPI) before you start modding the game.

You can get them here at Subsim or at...
http://forum.kickinbak.com/index.php Mod and patch SH4 and you'll have a good time. If your looking for SH3 with better graphics, you're not gonna get it. Well, at least not yet... BTW, welcome!  We bitch allot here, but we all love subs and will do anything to help each other out. That includes you too...

(I recommend RFB and RSRDC).

Well I am downloading the game at this moment, the bundle pack. The SH4 and also the U-Boat addon, at Direct2Drive. Plus I have downloaded the 1.4 patch if am not mistaking. Any cues or advice you can give are very welcome, first time ever in a sub simulation, so I don't know anything about it, and surely what to expect, but for what I have seen tonite on the net, it looks very impressive, visualy speaking. Thank you!

Well let me tell you, Ssgt_Wolverine... I just got done playing the game for the first time - on a machine I was not sure would run it... and WOW - loved it! Takes a few to figure it out... but then holy hardtails Batman, how did I miss out on this game for so long? I honestly have to wonder... it is now 3:52 AM here in EST and I've probably been playing for about 6 hours. Wow.
Let me share my first sunset with you... it was very relaxing after 3 kills in the convoy training mission. Yep... I'm hooked. Now for all those mods!!!
