Thank you all for the great mods but...

Comparing SH5 as is and SH3 after 5 years of modding is a lil one sided

Sure both were buggy on release and after 5 years you think the devs might have picked up on a few things ppl want in a game

Am sure SH5 in 5 years time will be a totally different game than is now

I can see though why ppl keep harping back to SH3 in the majority of these type posts - not SH4 - as there is a certain immersiveness missing from SH5 that SH3 had even OTB
Maybe the graphics are just too good, too bright and shiny
Dont give you that feeling of being cooped up etc

Leaving all the glaring ommissions aside it does seem to lack something

And not sure no amount of mods will cure that
But as I said earlier in 5 years time will be all change

SH3 is like your fave movie
Its comfortable

I know I can run a patrol in SH3 ( modded to f**k ) and come across a different ship every sighting
All sorts of nations and units
I can leave port and see moving cranes and ppl on the docks
Can try a harbour raid and get caught in searchlights from land and guns - providing I succesfully passed the mines and subnets ( ALL in SH3 OTB )

So am playing both
More SH3 than 5 - have to admit as modding SH5 is turning into a real PITA from a campaign POV - while I wait for the next patch
Some of the above may be fixed in that
May not

Certainly wont be removing SH5 anytime in the forseeable future
Nor SH3 come to that
Apples and oranges ATM
And I like both
