i think the specific missions to hunt a high value target can get abit far fetched after awhile. instead a more plausable approach would be:
- raid that harbour
- mine/hunt that approach
- weather reports
- i like the spy drop idea
- disrupt said convoy route
etc etc. more bigger picture strategic stuff i think would be more realistic.

Yes. I like these ideas. As far as I know, there was never an order given to "sink x number (or even one) capital ships" aside from Prien. It was a tonnage war against merchant shipping. While sinking an aircraft carrier or battleship was a great achievement, I think they were more targets of opportunity that came along while on a stated mission to sink merchant shipping. Too bad that game doesn't currently reflect that.

Default Many posts ago......

.....I stated that all the devs needed to do was take the GWX modded version of SH3 as their starting point and improve that and they'd be onto a real winner. A no-brainer, laughing-all-the-way-to-the-bank, winner!!! Instead, they tried to re-invent the wheel.........again. Guess what, the wheel's already been invented chaps no need to do it yet again!!!!!

I know that sounds like "I told you so" but there's no way to write it and not come off as an "I told you so",.....LOL. I'll just scuttle back down into the hold now, thanks!

I told you so, it will and it does stinks up to the sky! What did you expect? Gaming audience is becoming more and more stupid every day, they dont want to bother with "Fast 90" calculations, realistic sensors, realistic weather, realistic horizont distance, they dont want SIMULATION! They want eye-candy, arcade aim-and-fire fight, do this-reward that style rubbish. On the other hand Ubisoft want's more money, so they moved to Romania. Romania? Ex-communist cheap programmers? No problem! But you will get 1000 more bugs than ordinary, animations sucks (I'm a professional 3d animator), fast fast fast spit&glue production. And what do you get at the end? BS.

Comparing other UBI products made in civilized countries with SH5 made by Ubisoft Romania, I've come to the sad conclusion that the word of order regarding romanian UBI devs is "incompetence", they should better go and pick strawberries in Spain or working as the lowest hand in construction industry in Italy. Maybe that way they would earn their money for their daily bread.

No offence but in my opinion that is insulting. If Romania is not "civilized" country could you please point out which ones are?

Finland, for example, talking in general, and Canada, talking in particular (Ubisoft Montreal).

It would appear that Gunnodayak is on a roll...........


Couldn't agree more with you - it's insulting
