If a sim is hard, it is realistic? NO. I hate the sensor programming.

good luck out there.

you just have to remember that it is a PC sim which is limited to programming capabilities.

In real life you had to work with men and equipment... in SH3 there is only "code" to interface with to make events happen within the sim.

you made the mistake of increasing speed to 3... thats the threshold above which you are detectable. when you do that the enemy INSTANTLY knows exactly where you are. if it was as dark as you say... why didnt you approach on the surface??? then speed plays a lesser role in your detectablity.

sorry... but the use of real life tactics in SH3 is limited to what the game code allows. and there are little things like speed to account for.

yes its frustrating

yes its difficult

no... it cant be changed (much) and therfore complaining about the difficulty of SH3 is like complaining about sand at the beach.

sorry you had the experience... but all i can say is better luck next time.
