This could be a big part of the problem. The game is going to be available on IPhone soon, so the devs might have been forced into design decisions that mean it can be ported over easily.

However, after knowing about Ubi's DRM and especially bad reviews of people who played it before -I've a laptop and in my holidays I go to a house that has no Internet (and not even telephone), and my Internet connection (via WiFi) sometimes shuts down, so unless there's an "auto-save" option, imagine- I think I'll not get it, at least for now.

As a side note and as a curiosity,in Spain, its release date was programmed to march 4, but I've found that until march 11, it will not be released -perhaps because it will be patched?-. Do you know if a Nvidia GForce GT230M could move it?.

(PS: If you let me comment it -and this is the right place to do that- wonder why Silent Hunter does not change from the american or the germans and/or its action takes place in WWI. It would be interesting to be in command of -let's say- the japanese I-200 class or one of those aircraft-carrier submarines (the B1-type, for example) they had, or to control a WWI uboat, that lacked for example of a TDC and certainly were less advanced than a WWII submarine.

Even if somebody already said it... Welcome Aboard...

"Developers suck big time." This is just appalling.

SHV will be alright. Just like the others.

I actually remember the SH3 forums at the release, now THAT was Hell,.

If you remember that then, be part of the Solution NOW...

Or be part of the PAST. I think your better than that.

The order is rapidly fading.

Releasing unfinished and broken games so that modders can fix them should be unnacceptable by anyones standards.

Good news: after disabling shadows, the framerate increased drastically (30-60 fps).

Reimplementing SH3 controls and downloading a lot of mods also helped a lot.

Looks like SH5 will be playable after all

It was from the beginning

, but yeah, stuff like missing commands for 'toggle battery recharge' and no compass can be frustrating.

Blue-Casket · 03-07-10, 04:23 PM

The training sure did suck ass !
That first view of the game has to be good.
Not that silly and crappy like this!
And indeed it's 2010
They could have put something in it like with a crash dive the sailors run to the bow and stuff.

Really tons of bugs!
When i dive the others stay up until i'm 10 meters under water like wtf?

Loading torpedo's with 2 men and the last one just pushes something of about 800 kilograms alone?

And even no radio or grammophone to play old catchy songs.

All these bugs only tells us the game wasn't ready yet.

I'm going to sit and wait it out for when the mods start coming. Ive played SH5 for about 5 hrs and that was the day i got it last week. Haven't gone back. Its not a bad game its more personal for me I hate consoles and this game reminds me of a console game.
