1.3 patch.
Say your opinion about if you are happy or not .

I think it fixes the remaining 'game critical' issues and leaves some cleaning up for patch 1.4 if we're lucky enough to get one.

AVGWarhawk · 08-23-07, 11:29 AM

Patch 1.3 is a good patch. I'm happy with some of it and not with others. I liked 1.2 just fine really.

Ditto!

Who wouldn't be happy with bugfixes?

Hi,

Patch 1.3 corrected a lot of bug and improve the gameplay, but... many sounds miss ! Sounds are very important to create an immersive submarine simulation

.

Moreover, SH3 from ubisoft have this sounds (speech message like depth charges in a water, DD in attack run,...). So create a new simulation without the
same functionalities is a mistake

.

The absolute only gripe I have is the save games. I've routinely got 800-900MB saves. It takes a long time to load these -- upwards of 2 minutes. Plus all the drive space, since I routinely come out of a patrol with 15+ saves. I can work with this issue easy enough, by routinely clearing out saves, but I'm not always certain if I'm chucking the right ones or not (it's fastest to just delete them from the shell explorer). The graphics are unquestionably excellent. Very immersive. The game engine performance is good, but if I wanted to get picky, some SMP multithreading would be nice for the physics engine.

I'm happy with v1.3.

Thirteen pages of comments on the patch, and we don't know how people feel about it yet?:rotfl:

Isn't it a little late to be polling this? I mean, the patch has been out for awhle now. Its not like its recent news or anything.

Sounds like your using a mod that is using older version of submarine.sim files. Either an older version of Tmaru, or RFB has made this mistake i think. My save games rarely exceed 6 megs or so.

Rockin Robbins · 08-23-07, 02:00 PM

I'm happy. I was pretty happy with patch 1.2 and TM, but am a lot happier now. I would be even happier with patch 1.4, although it would be back to the salt mines for all our mod people. So a new patch isn't going to move me from dissatisfied customer to placated customer. I'm already very happy with my purchase and getting more satisfaction than I ever bargained for.

Much of that happiness is because of the work all the modders in Subsim have done. I wouldn't even reply to this thread except that it gives me another chance to thank all of you hardworking modders who are responsible for a big smile on my face when I play Silent Hunter 4.

I like the patch if for no other reason the fact my cd stays safe in it's case.

Hawk_345 · 08-23-07, 02:07 PM

i think its a good patch, but its not good enough to be the last, it fixes alot of the biger bugs, but more are still left, but of course thats the case with any patch for a game.

Capt. Shark Bait · 08-23-07, 04:11 PM

it's good, fixed some things, but there are others to be taken care of

Seadogs · 08-23-07, 07:34 PM

I like the patch, it was a good step forward. There is room for improvement of course. What I am curious about is why you would make a poll, vote you don't even want to use 1.3 and not leave a reason why.

donut · 08-24-07, 12:10 AM

Patch 1.03 is not the be all, to end all. We still need UBI Dev's to repair coding,to connect features,for logical results/expectations IE. credit for sinking's, Mission completed when you get RTB option,also patrol mission "Complete", when sending contact report,when to low on fish to attack. All these situations/features are what make this simulation the best,but need to be logically Incorporated/connected.
The Dev's have done great work,& the community modders are correcting work arounds faster than patches. The game is becoming more than playable, but still has many frustrations,that it would be polite to repair in another patch or expansion disc.
