Understood, I guess you would consider yourself lucky to get 2800 baud access in Timbuktu.

I have bought it, installed it, and have not reinstalled it. I will wait a little longer for more mods and patches to come out.

Seems like a bit of a mixed reaction....

Ok, I see a lot of posts asking whether the modded version is better than SH3 + GWX. Maybe the better question is:

1. is SHV + Mods more 'realistic' than SH3 + Mods?

and

2. The metacritic score, as of today is 62/100. Based on this, how would you rate SHV + the popular mods out of 100.

Thanks

On the AI. I have not had much depth charge experience yet but with the IRAI mod surface wise is extremely realistic in my opinion. Depending on weather AI ships see you as they would and make evasive manoeuvres or in the case of destroyers, make for you and start firing. In SH3 I could get really close to ships without them bothering but with this AI mod they see you. Great example is scapa flow. In SH3 I remember wiggling in and out of destroyers in the harbour and no one seeing me and this was on a clear night. In SH5 i got spotted trying to do a similar thing. Gotta keep your wits about you.

IMHO the game is worth buying if found for about $20 but i wouldnt say its worth more then that.

as for the computer, hell no, its not worth buying a computer to play a game that is only ok to good but not great by a long shot so buy a computer for any reason you want but not just for this game.
