Silent Hunter 6

It's completely unplayable and the manual is non-existent!

Britain is behind the curve. We already have SH9 here.

Voted for SH5, which is wrong, sry.

SH2 was much more worse.

more fans=more complaints=more bad publicity
That is probably why I have never seen a tom clancy game in bad shape before.
Maybe if Silent Hunter 6 became Tom Clancy's Silent Hunter 6 The Hunt for Red October it would be in better shape

V.

Unanimous vote... Hands down.. no think about it question.. battered and bruised, we should file a suit vs ubi for the money.. but this community did (and are doing) their best for bringing it home...

John Channing · 06-27-10, 08:01 AM

Ummmmm... nowhere near unanimous nor is it hands down.

Unless you know what a "Janus error" is, you probably shouldn't presume to speak on behalf of the entire world.

I had SH2, atleast i could play it (used to laugh on LAN multiplay when the ships wouldn't sink, just kept bobbing up and down), I can't play SH5 at all,

to me SH5 is the worst hands down!

The vote hasn't been unanimous? I guess I need to get my eyes checked.

Yup, same here.

The operative words there being "to me", and thanks for that. It drive me nuts when someone presumes to speak on my behalf.

Aside fom the constant Janus error crashes, people forget that if you were in an encounter with a DD (or several DD's) and you saved your game, the DD's would all go brain dead, lose you and leave. You could surface right in front of one that was previously using it's lazer beam sensors to locate and kill you and, after a save, it would ignore you completely.

I remember trying to sort this out during Projeckt Messerwhatsitsname and I don't think we ever did get it fixed.

As well night attacks on the surface, which are fun in SH5, were impossible in SH2 due to the fact that all of the merchants in a convoy were equipped with several ace level lookouts each. That meant in a convoy of 20 ships you had hundreds of top notch lookouts that could see as well in the dark as they could in the day.

Sh2 (prior to Pacific Aces) sucked.

I guess you do.

69.9% of 103 people (as of now) is not the same as unanimous.

I would bet a number of the people who voted for SH5 probably never even played SH2, especially in multiplayer.
