Thank God for SH3

allow me to revise my statement...

after playing vanilla SH2 for ages and ages and thinking it was a pretty cool game

i loaded stock SH3 on the day of release and it was AWESOME compared to what i was used to.

i cannot say that stock SH4 had the same "wow" effect on me when compared to what i am now used to.

as a player who enjoys a strong basis in realism and immersion, i have developed a need for many compartments in the sub, working stations, and a somewhat interactive crew that does more than just look at me funny.

I know SH3 had issues when it was first released, but when it was compared to the subsims i had grown accustomed to playing it was nothing short of revolutionary.

while SH4 was just a new coat of paint on the same old subsim... it would be as if SH3 were just a remake of SH2 with higher resolution or a clearer picture.

does that make better sense?

Both your posts make sense mate

I'm not disagreeing with you

I think SH4 had a harder act to follow in SH3 (modded) than that which SH3 followed (SH2).
On a personal note I'm bitterly dissapointed with the quality of SH4....I pre ordered it despite my connection with GWX

right after he rode a nine foot tall grizzly bear through a drive in car wash instead of taking a shower.
