Patch seems to be on the way... - Page 2

Turning off the sync feature doesn't work for me (as well as other people).

Regardless of that setting in the launcher, the game still tries to sync for us.

The message keeps getting displayed, yes, but I don't think it actually does.

Did that for me, but lost some progress after I switched it back on again.

When the 1.1 update was automatically downloaded, I actually got a prompt along the lines of "Do you want to install this update now?"

Assuming that will happen every time in future, you should have the opportunity to remove your modded files (if you use JSGME for example) before installing it, or perhaps choosing not to install it at all. But then you might find you can't launch the game, who knows?

Some people didn't go through that process after patch was auto-downloaded, and were still able to play. It's not like Steam, where you are forced to patch, as far as I know.

No, the Silent Hunter Steam version is 1.1.5

Im ceratin that a patch has been being worked on even as the first one was released. No need for anyone to tell me that.

But im also certain that it'll take longer than we'd like if for nothing else than the fact they cant make anything out of what we want for all the negativity being spilled all over the decks, and I'd take my time about it too if I had 10,000 people on forums calling me a stupid, brainless, and inept idiot all the time and constanly asking if it's done yet.

Go to your "X:\Steam\steamapps\common\silent hunter 5" Dir and right click on the sh5.exe - properties and details.

Where is dah second patch ?

I begin to loose morale, and my crew too ... on each reload

Me want patch ! Pleeeeeaaase ...

Nicolas · 03-12-10, 04:10 PM

Imho, be sure they will release a few patchs. Or just abandon the game? no way. Modders can fix some problems, but no way all the hardcoded ones.

I'm pretty sure they understand, and secretly curse Ubisoft for forcing them to have their good names as programmers hauled through the e-mud like this. I just can't believe the developers thought it was ready to be released in its current state, which - negativity or no - is not that of a finished product.
It's like releasing a movie when only half the scenes are done, with rudimentary editing, microphones in the shot, bloopers in place, etc. Nobody in the movie industry would dream of doing such a thing, of course. Unfortunately, the games industry thinks it can. Go figure.

I'm sure they're working on it as fast as they can, but it's no small task.

Seems UBI are less concerned with making a bug-free game, as they are concerned with implementing and enforcing draconian DRM regimes.

IF they had prioritized right, they would get less heat.

Well, in all fairness, the DRM really wasn't a part of SH5's development cycle and is something brought into the game separately, much like Starforce back in the SH3 days. I honestly don't think that the presence of absence of DRM would have affected the game's development as such. Not that it excuses the premature release or anything...
