Subsim: Millions in the Making

magic452 · 10-16-09, 12:15 AM

I got SH4 and was trying to play the 1.1 version right off the disk, it keep crashing so I called UBI for help and they could not answer my questions but referred me to Subsim and I'v been here ever since.

Congrats Neal on a great site and one million.

I had purchased 688i Hunterkiller when it went gold (Around the time Sub Command came out) and one day, after finishing the campaign and had played through the single missions, I finally decided to make some of my own. I also wanted to see if any missions existed that other players had made. So I got on the "Dogpile" search engine and searched for "688i Hunterkiller Scenarios". Bam ! I found this site and found links to LOTS of missions ! I was hooked on 688i, but through the message boards here, I learned that Sub Command had just been released. I thought "A SEQUEL !!! ALL RIGHT !!!" And then I had Sub Command (after a LONG search. Pretty much NO stores in my area carried it and back then, ordering online was a bit taboo for me). Of course, after I grabbed Sub Command, I needed player made scenarios and such...

Back to Subsim. I've been here ever since, lurking for most of the time, but I really value this resource. I can't say that enough ! No other sub sim site is as well maintained, and offers so many features. (Subguru is a nice seccond IMHO).

I found SS looking to get the patch or a fix for SH3.

Hehe, so the UBI support desk referred you here, and not the UBI forums?

Think I joined to reply to a question about SH4.

Those days of trying to be helpfull are gone though, all I do now is spam, and maybe make an attempt to keep the "General Games Discussion" up to date with a bit of news.

Visited here before that though, learned about GWX for SH3 on here, kept lurking a bit and eventually registered.

This is becoming kind of like the sticky thread with members' bios and how you found subsim, but I've got a few hours to kill so I'll jump in.

I bought SH4 at Wal-Mart because I hadn't played a subsim since U-Boat and Wolfpack, though I had always been a big U-boat enthusiast.

What brought me here was an incredibly stupid problem; I couldn't figure out how to make my torpedoes just go straight. It didn't take long for someone to point out that I had automatic inputs enabled

I eventually moved to the GT forums once I had my hunting style as perfected(hydro-hunting and no TDC FTW

) as I could get it, and I never left. Since then, I've had the opportunity to converse with and even meet a lot of great people, and I even got to help restore the USS Cavalla.

Thanks, Neal
