Do we really want to ruin this forum with constant DRM and SH5 trashing?

Too busy playing the game to keep dealing with this nonsense...

Yes. Both of them.

ROFL. But the purpose of this thread is hopefully not one party attacking the other here. So I would suggest to stop pointing fingers. Some people simply enjoy the game as is, and others have higher expectations. And both are entitled to their opinion, which each side should treat seriously if they want to be considered serious.

'Ya know folks, I think the proper play on words here is "Give Patch A Chance." I think John Lennon would approve.

There are a bunch of people enjoying the game, or trying to.

There are a bunch of people who played it, hated it, and said they'd be back when it was working better.

There are a bunch of people who will see if patches and fixes make it better, and then will buy it.

And there are a bunch of people who refuse to buy it while it's a force-fed online game.

Everybody has a different take, and everybody is more than willing to express there opinions. Everybody also seems to willing to take cheap shots at anybody who disagrees with them.

This is a thread asking players to give SH5 a chance. I'm more than willing to do that, once they'll let me play it.

It doesn't need to be a shooting war.

Well said Steve.
I'll happily admit that I am in one of those bunches of people you have described

But I try and remember that my opinion is just that. An OPINION.
And I can express it without being having a shot at someone else who happens to have a different one.
There really is no need to make the argument personal here.

I gave SH5 a chance (bargain bin for the win), and so far I have been enjoying it. There are issues of course, but that is no different from any release. I think most of the resentment stems from the net requirement, which is understandable, however the game itself is not quite as bad as some are claiming. The mod community is already bashing out some truly inspirational work, and I have no doubt that more is to come, this in itself makes the game worth playing.

Regardless of where you stand on the issue, there is no call for attacks against one another based on personal preference, which is what it comes down to at the end of the day. Some people will enjoy it, some will not. That is life.

Nice post Nordmann. I pretty much agree with this quote in its entirety.
I love the other SH releases. I still play SH4 w/ OpsMonsun U-Boat mod, but I am so stoked about a new SH and its possibilities, that I'm in no way ready to jump ship and cut my losses. Right now, what SH5 needs most is a supportive fanbase and modding community. This is probably the most critical time in which to make SH5 sink or swim, or at least keep it afloat for now.
The gripes have all been repeated many times, the complaints have all been made. So really folks, lets move forward already. Ubisofts to blame, we all know it. But that doesnt change the fact that we have a baby here that needs some TLC. In truth, all of this negative venting at Ubisoft on this forum is counterproductive as far as getting SH5 to a playable state.
Lets not throw out the baby with the bathwater and lets get rolling on fixing this diamond in the rough

The most sensible post in this whole thread.
