Modders will stay clear of sh5 until DRM is disabled ---no more patchs and ubi is all done with sh series yup sounds right o well whats next for us subbers

There's a hilarious irony in the troll threads being allowed to stay open (as of course they should), while the thread entitled "SH5 is incredible!" is instantly closed.

I wish all the naysayers would start their threads with "So I pirated SH5..."

Yeah that's why we haven't seen any mods that address issues with the game, nor a mod forum with 8,000 posts in it already.

Yup yup.. mods have already done some fantastic work.

my favorite is the one that returns the old style controls.

Cool stuff like well a compas and depth beneath keel and other well basic necessitys are back.

Modders are the only real saving grace to this blank canvas. There was lots of talk about scripting, I'm anxious to see where that goes.

Still... they need to patch their product. That goes without argument.

Well for those who really think that there wont be any more patches, think again.
If this were so then why put in an auto patchng feature that on startup looks for the latest patch?

Yes there will be more rest assured.

Im sure we all hope so!!!!

Hopefully pretty soon and not in 6 months. But the lack of info is disturbing and one might wonder what bugs the devs will try to erase this time. Some feedback or (if god is willing!) dialoge with the devs would be awesome.

I think I speak for everyone when I say that we love the SH-franchise but at the same time we are mad at what has happened to it.

I could easily be considered a fanboy of Silent hunter by friends, and i really want to love it. But in all fairness, this game is by far the most incomplete and buggy game i've ever seen released to the public to buy.
The moral and level up system is a total mess. And this is one of the new major game features with SH5.
Don't give me the not needed or i don't like it anyways BS. The point is that it's what it's ment to be by the dev team. They wanted to do something new and different with the RPG system. And it would be kinda cool if it worked properly.
Important features are missing and left out. A load of commands left out. If you want it you have to rely on modders or learn to mod yourself. This is just not tolerable and i'm quite astonished that most of the gamers here just seem to accept it and thanks the modders. Are we really at the point where this should be accepted?
Is it we, the gamers, that should finish a game?
I think not!

You'll get a patch, I have no doubts, but remember, if they try to fix all the bugs, and went flat out, the patch might be ready early next year!!

BigBANGtheory · 03-22-10, 04:22 AM

What Ubisoft should do is:

1. Patch problem areas of the game i.e. bugs + gameplay enhancements.

2. Bundle in some new content.

3. Communicate their intention to deliver a 'super patch'.

4. Relaunch the game & make the super patch available.

If they do it right then they can recover the damage and get new revenue and set themselves up for either DLC or expansion sales.

If that is the case...I want my money back, I do not pay companies to be a damn Beta tester.

Arclight · 03-22-10, 06:20 AM

Not even if you get the game for free?

This thread is about to be made very redundant. I'd delete it now if I were you and save yourself some face

Tough luck. No one put a gun to your head to buy the game the day it came out. What wrong with waiting a little to get a general impression from reviews, from gamers etc... of SH 5 and THEN make an informed purchase decision ?

I have to say that some of the comments from more senior subsimmers is, well, very depressing. The constant putting down of other people is just not on. I suppose it goes some way to explaining the increase in other sub sim websites out there; surely you can't expect members to remain loyal and faithful to Neals years of hard work in the face of such pedantic and generally grumpy people ?

Can't you just not post if you don't agree with what someone wrote ?

People are generally good people, but sometimes they get a bit cheesed off and vent their frustration in these forums. You can't exactly blame them for getting cheesed off with SH5 can you, I mean lets be honest. So why not try to exercise a little understanding rather than running fer yer electric quill 'n hobby horses. Sheesh!

Cheers, UG

PS: No pedantics were hurt or maimed during the making of this commercial.

No, this is a DISCUSSION forum not a one party system.

If this somehow offends your sensibility I don't know what to say.

As long as the discussion is carried on civilised terms what's the problem ?
