6 Days And Counting ..

[theluckyone17]

One of two things is likely to occur:

1. In three years, we'll all be talking about the awesome work the modder's have done on the latest supermod for SH5.

2. In three years, we'll all be talking about some other submarine simulation that filled SH5's place, since it flopped badly.

Either way, I doubt the majority of us will remember, much less care about, the several weeks we had to wait for the patch.

Also, you don't have to sink all the tonnage they ask you do. You don't have to do those missions at all. Play the game how you want.

Also, uninstalling for a patch seems... odd?

Exactly what I do.
In the Mare Nostrum campaign I sank the two carriers in Gibraltar.

Sounds like Dev Q&A time all over again, LOL.

Anyway, I'm glad they're taking their time and working hard on it. Wouldn't want them to rush their holidays, erm, patch now, would we?

TIC.

I am so happy that I did not buy this sh*t.
and also I'm happy for those who downloaded pirated

Really, good for you!

Wrong! You're reading into things that were NEVER posted by me.
I never said you should keep quiet, far from it, i have no issues with people voicing their concerns. Respect them in fact.
For how long?
As long as it takes! No point in getting a hernia over it!
Defend Ubisoft and it's Devs?
Just because i don't complain "openly" in every thread that is started, doesn't mean to say i defend them.
Nor does it mean when posting and "asking" some people to refrain themselves from just making the usual, boring mindless posts of "I hate Ubisoft" and the like, and actually come up with some more mature contributions, does it mean i am defending them.

Am i wrong?
Good day sir!

Hi all,

I know this is my first post, but I just had to reply to the "going on holiday" bit. This is a translation error, the original post isn't referring to any holiday at all!

Original:

Hallo Leute,

Wir haben eben mit den SH5 Entwicklern gesprochen und sie nach klaren Informationen zum Release des neuen Silent Hunter 5 Patches gebeten.

Leider können wir euch an dieser Stelle nicht mehr sagen als "Er ist unterwegs". Zeitlich können wir euch keine eindeutige Vorstellung geben. Richtet euch aber auf einen Release in der zweiten Maiwoche ein.

Ja, wir sind darüber auch nicht erfreut und haben auf eine frühere Verfügbarkeit gehofft. Leider können wir daran nichts ändern.

Wir halten euch auf dem Laufenden.

Gruß,
Marc

My translation:

Hello people,

we have just spoken with the SH5 devs and we asked them information about the release of the next SH patch.

Unfortunately, we cannot give you more information at the moment than "it's underway". At the moment we can't give you an exact date for the release. Expect a release in the second week of May.

Yes, we are not pleased with this situation, and we're hoping on an earlier release. Unfortunately, we can't change anything about it.

We will keep you updated.

Greetings,

Marc

So no holidays reported! :P

Glad to be of service,

Stefan.

Danke Stefan!
Welcome to the community.
I bet there will be a few red faces around here.

[BigBANGtheory]

Ok so someone was having a laugh with the translation, which basically means there is no change and no news other than the forum moderator being less than pleased.

Welcome aboard Stefan! I can understand your confusion, the holiday thing was in reference to this later post:

Die Entwickler sind total in den Urlaub. Ehrlich. Ich würde nicht von so einem Ding liegen. Du kannst mir mehr Vertrauen, als Sie Ihre eigenen Mutter vertrauen. Ihr Pflaster wird nie herauskommen, Sie schon hinters Licht geführt. Ich bin überrascht, es gibt eine deutsche Übersetzung für "hinters Licht geführt".

Was there also a translation error with that one?

" sind total in den Urlaub"
Can be taken out of context, that one,
do you have a link to this post? Over there? in the German forums? Would need to see the whole posts surrounding that one, could be a saying, as in: the devs are just totally not here", perhaps the poster is saying that the devs are not "with it" with this game, exactly translated, what you quoted "the devs are totally on holidays"
that doesn't make sense. German can't always be translated exactly into english.
I will still go with the comments posted at the start of this thread.

I had a look and there's nothing about it on the English language Ubi forum. I guess it would be helpful if they posted this information on all the official forums, instead of just the German one.

See, this is what I get for trying to defend SH5 for once!

Yes, we are also not pleased and hoped earlier availability. Unfortunately we can not change it.

We'll keep you informed.

I suspect they're being rewarded for their top notch work in delivering us such a well documented, bug free, highly playable game???

[Feuer Frei!]

Meh, IF they are on holidays, who cares.
At least they get holidays.

This is the whole post in German :

Microsoft translates it as:

"Hello people,.

We have spoken with the SH5 developers and they asked for clear information about the release of new Silent Hunter 5 patches.

Unfortunately, we can say no longer you at this point as "He is on the road". Over time we can give you no unique idea. Set up but to a release in the second Maiwoche you.

Yes, we are also not pleased and hoped earlier availability. Unfortunately we can not change it.

We keep you informed.

Marc"


Why do I suspect that we've been trolled?

You have been, but you're both talking about different "posts".
