So what did UBI get right? - Page 5

I have to agree so far on the lists - but there is one thing that I have to say I APPRECIATE above all else when it comes to SH4....

The fact that the devs themselves have a desire to see this game reach its potential.

SH4 - contrary to the locked away General - will be the best subsim we have - for the forseeable future. No - 1.3 wont make it perfect for everyone - but the fact that it was the devs themselves who went to the suits with the case of WHY they needed to continue support - shows the desire they have for this game. In addition - they have reached out to help the modding community in many ways with tidbits of info they didnt have to pass on.

As for GWX - I have it - and loved it. It made SH3 into the premier WW2 Uboat sim. I hope and expect that at some point - a "supermod" post 1.3 will do similiar to that for SH4. Due to the improvements already in place over SH3 - the work won't be quite so difficult.

Another thing that has been touched on - the sheer variety of shipping. No longer do we just have one passenger ship, one large, medium and small freighter - now there are different VERSIONS of some of them - and that variability really adds to the immersion.

There are alot of bugs in SH4 but, I still enjoy the game. It was getting old sinking the Brits all the time. The Pacific is a nice change and SH4 improves greatly on all aspects of play.

Yep, SH4 did add some good features to the series... Lifeboats etc

Call me crazy but my biggest dissapointment with the game was the graphics. The original screens were all prerendered which was very dissapointing, considering they looked so good. SH4 looks absolutly beautiful during a sunset.... but in my opinion thats about it.

Im going to wait till after 1.3 before i start playing SH4 properly again
