Oh! Didn't notice this one

You are right.

My sonar man didn't report me this ... he will be reprimanded !
Giving report is the N°1 priority in the army...

Engine frequency. No mention of incorrect volume verse frequency change of the engine and motor sounds when changing power settings.

But this list is promising.

Thanks for the support Ubi

I'm predicting sales will pick up again.

In my opinion only if some popular reviewers/magazines give SH5 second chance with 1.2 patch. How many potential buyer checks forums instead of relying only to reviews?

Paajtor · 03-30-10, 04:22 PM

some good news indeed, thx Sir

..but still I'll just watch this board, and see how it arrives, u know.
And see how it holds up with the mods.
I sure hope I will want to buy it soon.

(oh, wait..there was this other thingy....

Nevermind! Carry on pls)

there is also a fix missing regarding SB Audigy 2 ZS direct X sound or EAX support using XP 32bit SP3, as my system is crashing after some minutes including an abnormal loud and high constant tone, until i press the reset knob.

...preventing as a current workaround by setting direct X HW acceleration to minimum (using "dxdiag"), of course all 3d sounds are only stereo then.

Best news I have heard all week!

Not true. It is completely unacceptable and detrimental to the silent hunter series that a game was released in this state.

How many new commers would have purchased only to return or shelve it? Unfortunately this is how many games are released nowadays though.

I expect it's caused by purse tightening and not enough funds placed in development. They may have required some extra staff to meet release data expectations. It's UBI corporate at fault, not developers.

Sub Marauder · 03-30-10, 05:39 PM

I've tried the game on my system and it has serious framerate issues. I have a Q9550, ATI 5870, and 8GB RAM.

Vreith · 03-30-10, 05:42 PM

awsome news, will have to deactivate mods before the 12th see how it plays,

1 thing i did not notice is that depth charges need to have a bit more radius on there damage even when pretty close to the sub they don't do much....

or at least cause some more bad internal problems for the sub....

and of coarse get depth charged more often by lousy ai escorts

everyone gets these issues man, read the patch list of fixes, its also at the silent hunter ubi forums, stated they are fixing lag issues in the command room etc and fixing shadow issues....

hopefully this will solve problems for all

if your refereing to speed up time issue going laggy, that's when a taskforce/convoy is in your area and have loaded on the map incase you decide to kill them, just like the lag in port when ure trying to time compression your way out, there's ship on your team guarding the port and still loaded on the map. agreed it shouldn't be that laggy there just ships following a coarse when out at see but hey! thats the way it is it seems, the price of eye candy...

Great news , two more patches to go though . 1.3 to fix the stuff they accidentally broke with 1.2 and more fixes . Then the 1.4 tidy up never to be seen again last patch . Then the mega mods may begin . Seriously though , keep up the great work .

ndvsky · 03-30-10, 05:45 PM

Good News!!!

The end of beta 1.1.5 version is near, maybe a retail version finally!

reaper7 · 03-30-10, 06:26 PM

Thats great news, at least there will be some support for SH5.
With all the flaming at release its not great they didn't just close up shop on the sub sim scene.
Glad to see there fixing some of the problems, hope they get to the ranges not sending to stadimeter in the near future though.

Looking forward to the 12th.
