Thinking about "Re-Enlisting". Need Advice

HW3 · 08-02-14, 12:32 AM

Welcome Back!

I can't advise you since I only play SH3.

I'd go back to playing what it was you were playing originally and look around the forums to see what has been released during your absence, then take it from there.

I would gladly play any of my SH-games I have, if I had a computer that could handle the games I have. Can't play SH II anymore on my Vista(have played before but after some windows upgrade... no more) SH III not enough power the same goes for SH IV and SH V.

Thanks for the tips everyone. I'm installing SH4 now. I'm wondering how long it will take to re-learn everything I've forgotten. I still have a lot of tutorials and videos I saved so that should help.

Well, I did it. Raised my hand and signed my life over again.

I just began a tour on the USS Nautilus. First mission was simple and uneventful: Supply drop in Borneo. At least I was able to dust off my navigation skills before getting in any entanglements.

Radio message indicates the Japanese are poised to invade the island. Hopefully I can make their journey a little less comfortable.

UPDATE: Well, that didn't last long! Shortly after I posted this, I stumbled upon about half of the Japanese Navy in a giant convoy. I was woefully unprepared. In the end, my impatience is what killed me (time compressing when I shouldn't have.) Didn't even get to fire a shot. RIP crew.
