Has this community been overtaken by this game.

I want to get this on Steam soon, but read somewhere it is quite difficult.
I like difficult games, but difficult multiplayer games can be somewhat intimidating. Mostly since I feel my mistakes, can actually change someone else's gaming experience.


Is Wolfpack pretty much the same difficulty as SH3 on 100% realism (quite difficult for a beginning player), but than
multiplayer? I checked it out on Steam. It looks incredible.

In my opinion it is similar to SH3, SH5 playing at full realism. Obviously the graphics are great. The map tools and just getting around efficiently takes a little time but the basic SH concepts apply. I do like the fact that the TDC bearing updates when you change your course.
What I dont like is not being able to pause. I can understand not being able too when playing multi player mode. It would be nice to be able to pause in single player as sometimes I have to answer the phone or deal with some unplanned event at the house and have to start a mission from the beginning again.

To tell you the truth as far as i can predict, it's very unlikeable to ever have an sh6. But what it is kinda realistic is a graphic update of sh3 and a community held multiplayer server.

This is the main reason I have never really gotten into this game. It's a fantastic achievement but extremely difficult to learn if you want to play it properly.

I come back to it periodically, and then realise why I put it down. I'll spend a few free hours starting to learn stuff and then inevitably real life will intervene and I remember there's no save/pause function. I then get frustrated and put it down till the next time.

See if you can carve out 2 hours to play this Sat, I can help you. And if you need to leave, that's ok.

I'll probably take you up on that offer at some point.... although this weekend is probably out. Also I'm in OZ so it will probably be some weird ass time down here when you're playing lol. Thanks Neal.

It's not as bad as you might think, and there are a lot of guys who are willing to help you get started.

Here's a training session I did with a new captain a while back
