Patch 1.3 is possible, depending on Ubisoft's assessment of the game patched to 1.2. Of course, members here and at other Forums will always have an endless list of things they want patches to fix, but in the end, Ubisoft will make the call based on what they consider to be critical.

I think 1.3 is possible. Anything beyond that is highly unlikely in my view.

SH-3 1.4 patch ????:hmm:

Looking at the history of SH3, there were still critical issues to resolve after 1.3. I don't see that here. With 1.2, the game is really very playable. Patch 1.3 will take care of any issues that Ubisoft consider to be 'outstanding critical issues'.

Obviously, members here will always want additional patches to fix what they consider to be critical, but I think Ubisoft will have a different view.

Make the game Remember the Location of where you put the:

Gramaphone
Radio
Watch
Message Window
Event Camera

It is such a hassle to have to set this up every time you go to play SH4. Should be a simple thing to do.

No legal sanctions can be used to force it. (????) I hope I answered your question, if not pls do not hesitate to ask it again in more broad form.
Thanx. VK.

No, I'm good. I agree they have no legal obligation. If they're walking away from the series I think it's doubtful there will be a 1.4, and about 50-50 a 1.3.

under 1.2 Radar doesn't work, convoys stop when you hit a ship, escorts can only locate you on the surface, the rate of air attacks is far beyond that which is historical, the AA gun has visual artifacts (caused by the gunners position swinging through the side of the boat) that frequently prevent you sighting the weapon, the torpedo doors only open one at a time, the torpedo won't stay set on 'contact', you can see through crew members - the list goes on.

1.2 is usable, not playable - if Ubi leave it like this, they've lost me as a future customer.

I hope 1.3 is a couple of months away, there is that much work to do - Silent Hunter IV was released WAY too early.
