I'll say the same, except with more of a Woody Allen accent.

There a "Sub School" tutorial which will help you get familiar with the nuts and bolts of stearing and diving. Once you begin a Career or short mission be wary of time compression because i have messed up big time running into shoals that I could not see on the Nav map. Be patient with the sim and get to know what each function does. Once you feel ready for a Career. Save your progress. I save usually after each kill. Also take time with manual targeting. This does take some time to get but you can have the crew do this if you want to just get out there and have some fun sooner. Those kind of selection are in the game play options. The realism you choose can always be changes later (only in port) as your skills improve. As I said the mods here are really awesome but my personal advise is get familiar with the stock game first and then the reason and application of the mods will be much more clear to you later on. Have fun!

Hello!

Well thanks for your input and advice concerning this game, it is much appreciated. I will take your advice into account, will download the mods but not before am confortable with the stock game.

Again thank you!

Salute!

Direct answer to your original question:

SH3 is released. It sucks. Many bugs. Four patches later it's pretty darned good. Four years and many many many mods later it's one of the best sims ever.

SH4 is released. It sucks. Many bugs. Five patches later it's pretty darned good. Better basic game than SH3, many earlier complaints answered. Better graphics. Better crew management. Better campaign. Two years and many mods later it's on its way to being the best sim ever.

Until SH5.

Yes, you should get it. You won't look back.
