If he has tried all of the mods and still finds that attacking in Scapa Flow on the surface has not been 'spiced up' then, either, he hasn't tried all the mods or he hasn't installed all the mods properly. So, I was trying to be helpful.

If I were to read and take his post as literal then:

Wouldn't make any sense would it? I mean, if he has literally tried everything, then what could we possibly suggest, other than to try something again. So, I took it that he hadn't really tried everything, or every mod and was trying to point him in the right direction, but I suppose a thread like this couldn't last five minutes without some negative outpouring at some point.

I see you have managed to respond to a thread asking 'how do I make this game more exciting' with a post pointing out all the things in the game that you personally don't like, but not one single positive suggestion. This forums isn't just about what you don't like about the game, it's about trying to help others out as well, if you can.

A stated above, I do concede that I, too, misread his post Nisgeis, in that I had assumed that he was looking for a more realistic combat experience. Having myself just passed up that juicy convoy late last night due to it being in the 'wrong place'...I was reading my own interpretation into his words, and for that I apologize.

On the other hand, I did not point out "all the things in the game that I personally don't like", but simply the one that I thought he was referring to. Again, that was my mistake in interpreting his original posts' 5th sentence as being frustrated with the scripting. Obviously, I was wrong in that belief.

Where we differ is in your feeling that all that I post is negativity when you say "This forums isn't just about what you don't like about the game, it's about trying to help others out as well, if you can". Apparently unknown to you, I have posted help whenever I can both recently as well as in years past with SH3&4, and have supported the genre in many ways that you do not know, although in it's current state I cannot help but also highlight the failings when I feel it is relevant to the conversation and the future of the series. Sometimes I might be right, and sometimes I will be dead wrong...but that does not preclude me from participation. The attitude that it does shall do more damage to this forum than any remarks about SH5's numerous failings ever will.
