Silent hunter 5 is terrible! (merged)

To be fair here, notice he said Pension money? People who live on a fixed income like myself do have to plan for expenses etc... finding out you've just wasted limited funds on something that shoul have been a lot better is going to be upsetting for everyone...
I too might have bought it, but the DRM news made adopt a "wait and see" stance... (still waiting, not seeing.... LOL)
Likewise, a man on a pension is not likely to have an extreme gaming rig. I run 2 decent ATI graphics cards, 3 gigs of Ram and a pretty decent machine... and I still find the graphics 'choppy'... I'd bet his bad graphics are due to the game's graphics not being optimised enough for an older machine....
Let's face it... Ubisoft should have put more work into the graphics end of it, especially for lower end machines... I can play most other games with my grpahics set to 'ridiculously high' and still don't get the lag and low frame rates of this game...
A game should not depend on it's community to make it work... the comminuty is supposed to enhance the game, not rescue it...

I honestly don't see Ubisoft doing much more with this game... I'd bet the chances of a good patch are remote... and even a partial fix may not be likely... they may just drop it altogether....
