Because it is simple and gives you the best feeling how it should have been some 70 years ago.

Oh, and I've refrained from mentioning it since in the SH5 forums I'm only a visitory, but since you've decided to make yourself annoying here I think it's time to suggest you read the rules on sig.

Careful Steve, it is just possible his forum password has been 'compromised' AGAIN and somebody is posting using his name

Easy does it Policeman Steve, I think it is a typo, I think he meant SH5, if so I would agree!

@Rik007:

I said in my post above:

Sorry Rik, I intended to use the word 'you' as an impersonal plural, as in 'One really cannot blame the devs.'

I did not intend to refer to you personally.

No problem at all. As far as a blaim goes: the devs could have structured the code more so SH3 could have been reused but they were undoubtedly under time-pressure and other restrictions. Still SH3 remains the top-game. It should have been the base for the sequel. The game-engine should then have been preserved as it has a good balance. Of course debugged and improved while the eye-candy could then have been added as well as all the other feauture we all miss.

But of course I'm dreaming now. Probably the maximum is that we can export the 3D objects from SH5 into 3D Max - as already achieved - and import them into SH3. After playing for some time with SH5 my opinion is that it will never fly. Maybe I should try it again but I rather spent my time in campaigning in SH3.

Oops......

I think he meant sh5 as Reece says!

Thought his sig really is a political argumentation and might even be considered a offense to others and lack of respect for a country.

I think Steve just targeted his Sig, I Would do the same, this sig is
of very bad taste.

No, he is on record saying SH5 is the best thing since sliced bread and anything SH3 is garbage. I can understand his anger at the people who trolled the SH5 boards with nothing but complaints, but that doesn't mean he needs to come here and do the same. What makes it worse is that he is not someone who ever discusses the situation - he only makes limited one-time statements such as the one in this thread.

A favorite quote from Benjamin Franklin, which in my opinion applies to him perfectly: "Praise-All and Blame-All are two blockheads".
