SHV needs not only bug fixes but some alot more content also, so Ive shelved it for the moment to spend time working on some of that said content.
Give it another another year or so and it will be best Silent hunter ever.
I reckon the DRM will gone before 2010 is over

Better way is wait longer for patch than have no patch.
Be patient man.

I have been treated appallingly by Ubishaft.

and I was and have been ass-reemed by this gam... thing.

But lets not fall into the flaming and slanging off at each other, we are all on the same boot.

Now you may ask me to walk the gang-plank.

Sir BadSeed, pardon my manner but iam affraid i shall not be able to give, rather, choose to offer such an open reception like the gentleman Kylania, for permit me to remark. 1) Upon entry i observed you have taken no precaution with your title heading on your 1st post (467). Most members here put to good use smilies, no more so than the salute, respect to one another. Indeed it is your opinion, but iam very dubious to its success, and think it bad peformance to publicy sound it out. 2) You sir, embark upon a foolhardy venture to condemn sh5 an epic fail and with it you are far from alone, but iam sorry to deduct from your pleasure by reminding you, many enjoy sh5, and at very least some developed portions, many more are hard working on the continuation to further this. Sir to state that any form of defence matters not, and will affect your intelligence is beyond absurd. 3) Furthermore, you were and have been ass-reemed!! also you mention Buggery!! I should beg leave to remark, whatever floats your boat, on topic perhaps prison hulks you best be suited, as i cannot find the gang-plank you so crave. 4) Your entry posts which iam sorry to say are very inconsiderable and illy thought. Obviously to others as it is to me, you had not thought it out proper in any measure. I cannot affect your stance but i can ask favor to oblige some consideration for others. Good Day.

Well said. While I am not a contributing member of this "community" or a ubisoft fanboy, I must admit you covered all the key points.

This SH5 debarcle that keeps going 'round;
As for any kind of protective comments towards SH5, don't waste you r time, breath or typing energy defending it. It is very weak to say that it will be up to third parties to make it what it's supposed to be... And yes indeed, it is an EPIC FAIL. These types of comments just offend my intelligence.

As a paying customer I have been treated appallingly by Ubishaft. I want to play this game by myself and NOT with a permanent internet connection for SINGLE PLAYER.... If so, only charge me 1/3 the price for something I do not actually own and cannot play at my leasure and don't penalise me.

Unfortunatelly I was one who LOVES and wants to support this franchise so I happilly stood up and put my hard earned where my heart is and I was and have been ass-reemed by this gam... thing. EVERYTHING about that "Collectors Edition" was CRAP. There is NOTHING Collectable about it apart from dust.

But lets not fall into the flaming and slanging off at each other, we are all on the same boot.

I am very upset by this disgraceful episode and I really hope this does not have the potential to destroy the wonderful name of Silent Hunter.

Now you may ask me to walk the gang-plank.
I will sum it up for you Sir. You purchased the game as is. Of course with PC gaming there has been and always will be patches. UbiSoft as well as other Gaming Companies try their best to beta and Alpha Test a Familiar and popular Game like SH5, the genre has been a mainstay to the submarine simulation community. Understand when you are a devout hardcore PC gamer, Patches are a way of life. I’m sure Ubisoft released, at the time, a stable version of SH5. Be cognizant of the fact PC Gaming companies will never have a game perfect at release. Unlike a cookie cutter console system i.e. Xbox 360, that every game you purchase works on every other Xbox 360 in the known world! Why, because every console is made same way. When you have an intricate PC game, especially a simulation of the magnitude of SH5, Anyone in their right mind realizes you can’t release the perfect PC game at release. PC Computers have thousands of different hardware configurations out there, People use SCSI, SATA, Nvidia, ATI, AMD, Intel, SoundBlaster, realtec, adlib, Windows Xp, Vista, Mac, Windows 7 and they’re various versions etc. There is no way in hell any PC Gaming developer can appease so many possible hardware configurations. Pc Gaming companies would have to employ 10.000 beta testers to get a lay of the land. In reality no companies are going to spend millions to make one game of many in development, perfect!

Here’s the sad thing about novice PC gamers. First off, a lot of people that buy an expensive PC gaming system our uneducated in the aspects gaming as it relates to the care and maintenance of the relation between software and hardware. I’d say half the people here complaining about the misfortunes of SH5 probably have no idea what a Patch or a driver is, or they have a weak understanding of them, or fail to apply them appropriately. Believe it or not, there are people right now scratching their heads, saying, what the hell are those. And by the way, why is my game not working properly? I'm not going to get into the technical aspects, but I believe I have made my point.

To conclude, People that demand a flawless PC game at release, because they are a paying consumer and demand a great product, well it is, and will be, you just have to be patient. A company like Ubisoft is reputable, and they have made many great titles, they just don’t have Millions lying around to make the perfect game at release. The best form of testing a game is when it's released to the public, the public that has thousands upon thousands of Computer Configurations that relay the problems they are experiencing in respect to they're personnel computer. Understand the magnitude of this undertaking will help appease you’re dissatisfaction.

P.S. Do I think Ubisoft could have done a better job with this specific title, Absolutely! But it is what it is, they will patch it, and it will be better!

Thanks Mulligan

Though, the state of this game at the moment has nothing to do with PC Hardware configurations. I think the game runs mostly stable for everyone.

Majority of the bugs are lack of tweaking/testing or down-right missing features.

True, these problems do exist. These are legitimate problem with the game. My post was intended to squelch out the other 60% of complainers that had nothing constructive or productive suggestions to fix the problem with the game at hand. The game has been released; all we can do now as a community is get the game working right through Ubisoft, and make constructive criticisms to improve future titles. Some of these posts sound like kids that were told no, when they asked for their fifth pop-sickle. lol

Was there something wrong with this sentence? "3) Furthermore, you were and have been ass-reemed!! also you mention Buggery!!"

"From now on, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put." - Winston Churchill.

Changing the subject. Do you happen to know if these signs are posted all over the UK?

complicated? one can indeed up the ante!! I shant. When i have the impertinence to ransack into one of your posts to deliver a speech on presentation, then you can tell me my duty. You compliment me, but yet say much, in my view, much, is such, = unwarranted attack. You are new, hijacked the thread, i give you this one for free. However, if you insist, then i will take great fondness in teaching you a lesson. I now advise you please regain your way, as well regard of my place, to ones own doing, i desire you will hereafter show more care to what concerns you. Good Day

Sorry to interrupt this interesting conversation, but I simply wonder: are you a very known contemporary writer just using an alias here, enchanting us with your infinite wisdom?
