question to all members here ?

Don't worry about it dude. Despite the negative hype a lot of us are going to buy SH5, myself included. I'm not going to feel guilty towards the subsim community, nor should I, and nor should you or anyone.

TarJak · 02-08-10, 08:34 PM

I'm abstaining from the vote because there is no option to say it is your call.

I've made my call. You have to make your own and should not let pressure from any group sway your convictions.

02-08-10, 09:16 PM

neal has already said he is buying it to give us all an unbiased informative review of the game.

do what you want to but there is no need to do it for the community to get info about the game.

Sailor Steve · 02-08-10, 09:18 PM

I'm with Tarjak. Don't ask others to tell you what to do. Make up your own mind.

Adding to what Webster said, there will be many who will buy the game, and they will talk about it. What you do is up to you.

I would politely ask that you start using punctuation in your writing, though. It makes it much easier to read.

That really ruffles my feathers when I read things like that. People spent a lot of money before knowing about DRM, some found out they can't even play it. Anyways...
Like others said, make up your own mind. Remember Neal will also buy and review it as soon as he can.

I'm going to buy the game myself, but I will not share my opinions until Neal does. Because hes been here a long time. A LONG TIME.

Punctuation Is Your Friend

Full stop
A full stop is used to mark the end of a sentence.
A full stop is sometimes used to mark a short form of a word such as an initial.
Also known as a 'period'.

Comma
A comma is used to mark a pause between different items in a list.
Use as a pause or an interval.
A comma is often used to separate two phrases within the same sentence.
A comma is used to mark the beginning and the end of a phrase which interrupts the flow of a sentence.

Question mark
A question mark is used at the conclusion of a sentence that asks a direct question.
It is not used at the end of an indirect or reported question.

Exclamation point
An exclamation point at the end of a word, phrase or sentence to indicate forceful utterance or strong feeling, such as surprise or rage. It can also follow an order given to someone. Also called an exclamation mark

Brackets
Brackets are used to separate a comment or phrase from the rest of the sentence.
The bracketed word, phrase, or sentence may amplify the meaning or be explanatory. Or it may contain a remark or passage that departs from the theme.

Hyphen
A hyphen is used between the parts of a compound word or name (to join two words that are normally separated) or between the syllables of a word (especially when divided at the end of a line of text).

Semicolon
A semicolon marks a longer pause than a comma to indicate a major division in a sentence. Used to create a more distinct separation between clauses or items on a list than is indicated by a comma. It separates statements which could stand as sentences on their own and are usually of similar importance, but are not linked with a conjunction.

Dash
A dash is used in place of a semicolon to mark a pause in a more dramatic way - to create an abrupt break or pause in a sentence or hesitation in an utterance.
Two dashes can used instead of brackets to separate a piece of information from the rest of the sentence.
A dash is written very much like a hyphen. The difference being the dash is longer, and has a gap on both sides of it.

Quotation Marks
Quotation marks, also called Inverted Commas, are placed on either side of words and the punctuation that goes with them, to show that someone has spoken or of a text directly cited.
Quotation marks can be put around a word or phrase to make it stand out from the rest of the sentence.
Quotation marks can be written in one of two ways "either" - 'or'. "Sometimes this way is used to show speech" and the other one is use to 'draw attention' to a word or phrase.

Apostrophe
An apostrophe used to indicate the omission of one or more letters. It can be also be used the same way with numbers. For instance to denote a calendar year: instead of 1998 it could be written as '98.
An apostrophe is used before or after an 's' at the end of word to show who owns something. When you use its to mean the owner of something you do not write an apostrophe.
An apostrophe also shows the plural of a number or letter of the alphabet, or a word which does not normally have a plural.

Thanks Sailor Steve, I voted for punctuation too....

Frederf · 02-10-10, 03:52 AM

I don't have nearly information about the game to even begin to think about buying it or not. The actual facts of how the game series is improving are very few and far between. All we know is that the scope has been narrowed to TypeVIIs, until 1943, and you can traverse about the entire submarine in first person.

I'm going to need a demo and/or a review from a trusted source before I'll consider it.

tonschk · 02-10-10, 04:07 AM

Without a doubt , I will buy the

SILENT HUNTER 5

game

.

Nimmo55 · 02-10-10, 04:20 AM

As people have said, gotta make up your own mind. I for one will not buy...I will wait for people to post their impressions...if they have dumbed it down, I definately won't buy....want to send a message to the developers in my own small way (and the only way I can vote BTW...). If they haven't dumbed it down and it is ok..I will still think long and hard about buying it...I might support those who are against the internet connection....it's not as if we won't have other choices in the negre of simulation (SoW coming...NTW in terms of strategy about to hit us etc...)

i second that!
we will inform,learn and talk about the game together once it's installed on our computers.
ubisoft hasn't turned us down when we requested things like an entire sub to run trough and all those things we would like to see.
so now that they present us a product in wich they have to combine our wishes with the need to reach a larger public it's up to us not to let them down.
i'll buy silent hunter 5 just like i bought the other four!
