Default Where did the gangplank go?

I saw screenshots from the preview version (i think it was one of neals screenshots) of sh-5 which had a gangplank to the u-boat in the pens. But now with all the footage being released its nowhere to be found. Didnt it make it in the final version?

I think someone photoshopped it into one screenshot, just for fun. I'm pretty sure it was never really there.

It was also seen in screenshots from an official german preview. I really dont think they would photoshop screenshots.

Which ones? I never saw it except for that one picture, and it had some appropriate comment.

It was there in the official screenshots... it looked in some shots like it was super laser vision from the repair guy. A gang plank was definately there.

Okay. I stand corrected.

Actually I'm sitting right now, but you get the idea.

Looks like gangplank to me. If you look veeeeery closely, I think you can make out railings on it too.

Yes, it looks like the repair guy is using his super laser vision to weld the hull up... was defenitely later revelaed as only a boring old gangplank (shown from the reverse angle), of the hemp rope and wood variety. Posted in this forum no less.

Maybe someone who has the game can comment on this.

This is from the menu only. It's not like that in-game unfortunatly. So no gangplank.

Yes. I don't want you to take it as an offence, but I think your expectations for the game are too high, you may be disappointed.

I got absolutely no problem with OSP, no problem neither with loading and saving. But still, the game has issues.

From what I've experienced so far
, it is better than SH3 and SH4 Vanilla.

I think the biggest mistake people could make is to compare SH5 with SH3 GWX 3.0

If you ask me what is the best simulation between SH5 vanilla and SH3 GWX 3.0, of course I would say SH3 with GWX 3.0

But if you ask me what is the best simulation between SH5 vanilla and SH3 vanilla, I would pick SH5 without a doubt.
