SH5 is going to be the best sub game ever created at some point in the near future.

but.. the staunch anti-DRM crowd have nothing left to discuss but to keep announcing how proud they are they will never play it.

Perhaps they should leave the SH5 boards and get their own forum so they are in like company.. they have no intention of ever playing the game anyway right?

Might be a boring forum though since the only sticky would be: "Who is more resolute in not buying a game and boasting about it?"

Go away.

I think you're right Redcoat22, SH5 certainly does have the potential to be the best yet. There are a few who still want to bash the game and let's be honest when something is new, then it's cool to bash the new things, so we don't appear conformist and therefore cool. But those who have become the 'early haters' are in a bit of a precarious position, as the initially cool hater position has somewhat given way to the steady flow of posts saying that people are enjoying the game. Its not wrong to change your mind, only a sensible person can change their mind. It's a normal part of being a human .

Nah... you missed this one. I want SH5. Badly. I hate OSP more. I want to play SH5, but the implications of OSP and my feelings against it prevent me from being able to play SH5. Trust me, if I had my druthers, I druther be playing SH5

I feel your pain. I will eventually get SH5 but that will depend on how long it takes to reach the bargain bins. By then the DRM will have been removed as Ubisoft will no longer care about losing profits. By then it will likely have been modded into something more like SH3.2 (I hope). I doubt this new 3D interior, interactive, subby, thingy with Star Trek controls and trying the cook's soup is going to catch on and revitalize the sub sim genre.

If anything it may make the original SH3 code more available to the modders and for that it deserves merit.

It's also entirely possible another version of Silent Hunter will be released whereby this whole cycle may start all over again. It depends on Ubisoft and the success of their DRM self-flagellation software.
