Like someone already said, I think the best combo is SH4+TMO for the US side of the war and SH3+GWX+what ever else you want for the German side.

I was really disappointed by SH5, sure it looks lovely and the detail is amazing, but the gameplay just felt like an arcade game to me.

Yeah, SH5 looks wonderful! If only they didn't waste resources on useless stuff like crew animation and the sub's interior. Sure this adds something to the game but come on! What good is a elegant Ferrari without its engine?

Thanks for the info guys!

I agree with this although my experience of SH4 is very limited to date, spend far too much time on SH3

If you want to play an improved SH5 it seems from reading the SH5 forum that you will have to spend a fair amount of time installing mods and then editing files yourself as TDW has yet to get his "magnum opus" megamod fully tested out as working - but damn are they working hard to fix all the known issues and add new/more realistic features!

Cool! Its a shame customers are the ones that need to do the devs work... and I'm glad such persons devote their personal time to achieve such feat.

Respect!

I hope they also change the torps explosions... I don't get why they look so... dull... when compared to previous versions of SH. I mean they worked hard on graphics and eye candy and yet they nerfed the torp's detonation animation...

I'll not tell you my preference for fear of being accused of biaisness

Try all three, go to the mods section of the forum for each and then you'll be in a better position to make an informed choice.

What's most important is enjoying yourself in/during the process.

Good Luck
