new player, what game?

raxious · 05-30-11, 04:14 AM

hey guys, I'm new to these boards and new to the SH series.

I was wondering if people could help me decide if I should get SH5 or not, cause I've read a lot of bad things about the game in reviews etc. Yet people do say that with the mods these days its a really good ( less buggy ) game then it was at release.

hopefully someone here can help me.

SH5 constantly being developed by our talented modders, SH3, SH4 has been longer, while the SH3 ... would be called the core of the series, but all three of these changes ... I suggest you take the time to look around to see which of the versions you want .. and you can trade them favorably on amazon,link here

well, I don´t have a CC, and had some trouble with paypal before. So I can only get the game from steam for 19,99 atm.

But you can certainly get it from Fedex or UPS, as cash on delivery, if you find a lower price,

a better price,

I would still be sticking to Steam though, but thx for the amazon links.

but is the game worth buying, or should I keep my money instead?

Gerald · 05-30-11, 11:22 AM

It is worth as many, I myself tried it which came out last year, but after that, a lot has happened for the game, and thanks to our talented modders, so some consider it if it feels right.

I would get SH5 and get all the mods u can from these forums. SH4 is good also but i prefer the atlantic. both games can be modded. I saw SH5 for 5 bucks on amazon so it will be cheap in your local stores also.

unfortunately, the shops here in the Netherlands disagree with you ^^'

SH5 at this point is certainly worth spending your money on. There are several Dutch members here on these forums who might be able to help you out. After that there are members all over Europe who might be willing to order it for you. Given your location America should be a last resort, but there are many of us who'll be glad to do what we can.

You might start on the dedicated Dutch forum.

Yes it is a great game as I am new to SH5 anyway just a couple of questions

1. The RAF fly right over me and they don't attack me?

2. How come my second command in never wears water proofs in bad weather? (if there is a mod to sort this then can someone link it to me please)

In real life not every RAF aircraft would attack, only those with the mandate and ability to do so, I'm sure more would be en route to their own legitimate targets than have the permissions to attack a u-boat. Needless to say your position would have been noted and relayed to Coastal Command / RN in the upcoming hours.

@raxious - Only YOU can say whether this game is worth it for YOU.
