A Q on SHV

all we can say for sure is the game goes on sale march 4th 2010 (only 26 days from now)

if you dont know anything about the game at this point it would be very silly to buy it now.

the smart move is to wait for the reports of those who buy it and find out if this is a game that fits your style of play.

it will not be a sim game like sh3 or sh4 so this non sim game will be something completely new but with recognisable elements

I still don't understand why people think it will be less of a sim.

When I look at the shots and trailers, what I see is Silent Hunter, not "Super Convoy Fighter Turbo".

Thanks, important points.

because UBI said it isnt a sim and classified the game as "action-adventure" because thats how they made it.

I don't understand why people still think it will be a sim when UBI said it isnt.

Well yeah, but doesn't the same apply to SH3/4?

I'm not arguing whether or not it's a sim, I'm saying it isn't any more or less of a sim than SH3&4.

no, the same doesnt apply to sh3 and sh4 because they ARE simulation games


sh3 game genre - simulator

sh4 game genre - simulator

sh5 game genre - action/adventure


i cant say much more then that, but do I wish it could be a sim? yes, but when they (UBI) tells you its not a sim we must accept the reality of the truth.

Ubi can call it whatever they want, doesn't mean squat to me to be honest. They wouldn't be the only ones that don't know what to call it:

Like I said; When I look at the shots and trailers, what I see is Silent Hunter, not "Super Convoy Fighter Turbo".

But nevermind, we'll see how this thing turns out at release.

Have you played SH5?
Or are you beta-tester for it?

For someone SH3 and SH4 are "shooter" games if aren't 100% real, or with 100% difficulty but without "veteran" escort...
