Subsims are the greatest things to ever touch computers

I really didn't like SH2, mainly because there was no real career, just a string of missions that played the same every time. Hitman's 'Aces' campaign made it a little better, and Pacific Aces was a wonder. Oh, and I posted the link in the 'Classic Subsims' thread.

On the other hand, the adversarial multiplay between SH2 and Destroyer Command was a lot of fun.

I would love to get Pacific Aces. But there's three problems. One: my Win 98 can't be hooked to my Internet. Two: my computer that is connected is hogged by the family. Three: the mods that I download to a disc to take to the 98 don't show up on the 98. An extra 4th problem: Pacific Aces costs money doesn't it? Any ideas?

Yikes RO. That's a tough one. The cheapest way for you would be to go the download route which is a mere 5 bucks and higher and it helps Neal maintain this wonderful and unique site. Your computer problem has me stumped though. Maybe someone else will chime in with some ideas. Sorry I couldn't be of any help. If money is tight (understandably so, especially in these trying times) I'd be glad to make a donation for the download version on your behalf if somehow you solve your computer issues so that you can enjoy PA also. Try to contact Neal for some help.

Congratulations on the possibility of you getting a new 'Puter. Hope you get it. Yeah absolutely Red October. We'll wait till X-mas and get with Neal on how to go around doing that.

Ok. If I get a Vista or Win 7, will my SH2 work on it? Or even Sh3-4? I'm trying to find out what to get. If I could get a list of recomended subsims on Vista/Win7/XP?

Red October1984 · 09-24-11, 09:28 AM

SH2 was a big letdown. 2 year(?) wait (the ultimation to ubisoft thingy), then the uber AI was what killed it for me.

The DC concept was cool, too bad it had so many issues.
