Death of SHIII?

Razman23 · 02-11-07, 11:42 AM

With the release of SHIV within the month, do you think that SHIII will fade to the briney deep?

I am going to say that it will take a hit but after six months or so, people will come back to play the Atlantic once again.

I am really excitied about the mod of SH-4 to the Atlantic!

I hope..............

I think people who are more interested in the Atlantic War will graviatate back to it eventually if they do pick up SH4. I always found all naval warfare in WW2 interesting but just like on land some have strong preferences as to which theater. (Ever meet an Eastern Front buff?

) I also believe someday there will be a more comprehensive Atlantic U-Boat sim. The market is there.

True and to the point

I think a lot will depend on the realism of SHIV. Another aspect is: Will computers be able to have both games installed? My 200 gig machine seems to be maxed. In my present career stage, I'm far from ready to move to the Pacific.

I'm a Battle of the Atlantic junkie, so until something better in that arena is released, SH3 will always have a place on my hard drive.

DanCanovas · 02-11-07, 12:36 PM

i'll be going over to SH4 for a while.

GT182 · 02-11-07, 12:41 PM

Same as Mookie. I might try SH4 eventually but SHIII is here to stay on my HDD.

Tho I hope to have a 400gig HDD SATAII setup soon, 200 for storeage and 200 for play. With all the mods the 200gig storeage will come in handy.

LOL

Have pre-ordered SH4 but it will sit on the shelve till some one brings SH3 into SH4 so you can play SH3 a atlantic game as the Germans or SH4 As the US or Japs in the pacific on the same game then you will have a total sub WWII game

Von Taticus · 02-11-07, 12:43 PM

SH4 Seems more to me as a Super Mod than a new package.

Most of the things I would have liked to have seen (more compartments and improved damage model not are there, in fact they are being cut back "simplified" is the term used.

The mods made to SH3 by the fantastic mod teams would appear to be better that the SH4 proposed spec. IMHO

I love the atlantic, So I shall stay with SH3 and forget any rushed out super mod
by UBisoft.

I'll still be battling in NYGM 2.4

I'll wait for a better Altantic sim, if it ever occurs.

I am with Mr Chris

I will have both installed in my hard disk. well 10 gb could be enough, because i stored all mods in cds for security. or buy a new hd.

But Sh3 is reaching the top in modding so a lot of modders could move to sh4.
A dream could be put sh3 with the SH4 engine, but perhaps impossible or very difficult :hmm: GWXX ?? :rotfl:

Ubi, please release a software developers kit for SHIV!!!

Warmonger · 02-11-07, 01:04 PM

SH3 will definitely stay on my HD because, as others already said, I find the Atlantic scenario way more interesting than the Pacific one.

But being a sub maniac I will give SH4 a try (after the first super mods

),

hyperion2206 · 02-11-07, 01:08 PM

I will get rid of SH3 as soon as SH4 is in my hand. Even with GWX I've grown tired of the Atlantic.
