Nah, relax!

KL is just kidding. He knows that NYGM is more about what it really was, no matter how hard that would make the gameplay, while GWX is more balanced.

He also knows that I prefer GWX over NYGM, as the vast majority of the forum.

It's just not fair... most of the mods are "for gwx". The others don't stand a chance.

But yeah, he's right, it's totally debatable! :p

I am no expert but perhaps the best thing would be a combination of the supermods out there.

To be blunt, I think this "it's apples and oranges" talk is nonsense.

If you don't want to compare then out of politeness, then thats ok, but I certinaly
thing they can be directly compared.

If you can compare SH3 to SH2 despite their vast differances; you can compare GWX
and NYGM with their (relativly) small diffrences.
You can compare anything you want, and the more so when you talk about things that have a common base (SH3) but the final point about this is that realism is -obviously- limited in a computer game due to many software, hardware and budget constraints, therefore many times you must either do compromises or make interpretations. NYGM, GWX and WAC have taken different routes, and none of them is wrong; they are simply different.

For example, WAC has what is probably the most detailed and luxurious recreation of real events in his campaign, so you could consider that ultimate realism (It replicates real life, after all). But NYGM and GWX however take a different point of view, despite still offering many scripte historic events: Since you are in a different position to a real Kaleun of WW2 (You know what and when happened) it would be probably irrealistic to simulate all the war on a scripted basis, as you wouldn't get the feeling and situation a real Kaleun suffered with the fog-of-war. So you have, in the end, different interpretations of what is more realistic, or important for the feeling of realism and inmersion. INTERPRETATIONS.

Choose what you prefer, and compare if you want. But in the end, you will find that your analysis will bring you to the constraints and necessary compromise decissions that all teams have taken in different directions.

Sorry for the triple post guys... I kept trying to post, but the browser kept presenting me errors... I finally gave up, thinking that the post never went online. Now, reading the comments I figure the posts went online, all of them.

Sorry!

The best advice: Try all three yourself and decide you won't regret downloading and keeping all those three masterpieces.
Correct....in a nutshell.

Or was that an apple or an orange or a banana shell :hmm:

I would have to go with logic as well. I have only played GWX and it is excellent. To each their own. If GWX was a fruit, I would not say it calmed my hunger, it made me want more because it tasted very good. Alas, my view is skewed as I have not played the others. But, it is great to have a choice.

Relax PT. (And everybody)

I simply stated my opinion calmly, that I feel GWX offers the most realistic experience. I wasn't kidding anyone about anything.

I hope my opinion, however biased it might be, is okay too!

However, without getting eyeball deep in some sort of mess... I recognize that this sort of discussion is completely debatable and that it ends with individual interpretations.

The OP asked for a quick comparison between the different mods... but thats kind-of impossible I think.

Deep breath everyone.

Actually, RDP, I think something is messed up on Subsim's end. I've been noticing a lot of double-posts in the past few days.

Is Neal playing WoW again on the same computer that runs the Subsim server? :p

Yeah, noticed that with KL's last post ( although the last line was different ) and a few others.
I'll pass this onto Neal.

@ PT: we'll pin your troubles on us , this time anyway
