What OS are the UBI devs useing to build SH5 ?

What kinda rig specs are they useing ?

This can make a difference too.

Good question. I have recently got a new rig Quad core with Vista 64 bit. I wonder if it will work with 64bit OS and will be optimised for more than single core processors out of the box.

Alot of people here don't realize the hidden hard work that went into GWX 3.0 so alot of players could play on their differing computers.

Lets hope UBI takes that into consideration in these tough economic times.

An upgrde of specs or OS just isn't in the cards for alot of players .

Economic stimulus for the computer industry?

On the point of a possible SH5 release, I hope its not rushed and they make a good effort of it.

Given the fact that Ubisoft hasn't even officially announced SH5 to be in production, I have just a quick question for those who are waiting to see SH5 released in 2009.

When in history did an important game producer announce a big release just 5 months before the game hits the shelves?

My guess is we won't be able to play SH5 (if any) before mid-2010, at earliest.

I, for one, would be willing to accept modest graphics in exchange for superior AI, depth, realism, and detail. Gameplay and immersion! But I think I'm rather the exception in not caring as much about the graphics.

Well, I have this problem. Back when SH3 was still in the works I posted that I would be happy with AOD's gameplay and SH2's graphics. After four years of SH3 I'm kind of addicted. I like the way SH3 and even more SH4 handle interiors and the way their ships look, and I'm not sure I'd want to go back to anything less.

But that's just me.
