Thanks for sharing, have fun.

bobo · 05-22-07, 10:24 AM

The above is just my opinion, I do hope that someday SHIV will capture me. Afterall, I don't think it's completely crap, it has potential.

Thank you u-bones, I'm positive I've read something of yours that was helpful to me. Sincerely thank you.

Forgive my ignorance but I don't know who Elanaiba is. Judging by responses I can only guess he has something to do with the product. In which case he deserves more than a thank you. I never intend to trash anyone's hard work. I know what it's like on a different level (Enterprise Storage Array's). I've put up with customer crap as well but poor features/functionality/performance is rarely due to any one persons contribution or lack there of. Customer crap is taken up to mgmt as feedback for improvements. Most of the time it takes a large pile of crap from multiple customers taking a dump in yer office to make a difference but occasionally even a small turd gets visibility. Once in a great while I get passed a little turd and am able to make difference and that feels great. There's difference's in Hardware vs Software, one company's ethics vs anothers but I've never seen a load of crap do anything other than create dialogue for improvements. If we were to throw up our hands and say "screw it, they b!tch too much" we wouldn't be the No.1 provider of storage array solutions across the globe.

It sure does just as SH3 did. I will tell you, as much as I loved SH3 with the larger mods installed, I like SH4 better with minimally installed mods. Basically all I have is a few textures and the reduced radio traffic mod. If the game is this good for me in the basic vanilla state, it will only get better.

Anyway, SH3 has been completely removed from my computer. I do not have any intentions of loading it up again. To each their own I guess.

Same here, I love SH4. I have figured out how to use the radar, and it is fun. The night attacks in SH4 are way more fun than the ones in SH3, where I was NEVER able to get close to a convoy on the surface.

I like not fighting for a fascist regime, I like getting to use a GATO boat, I like the improved graphics, I miss the radio shack.

SH3 is uninstalled. At some stage I might put it back on, but not anytime soon.

thanks for the edit Dean,

Hunter,
Quite right, have edited my post.

I think that "fighting for a fascist regime" is appro. however. I'm sure you will let me know if you disagree. I fully understand that not all the Kriegsmarine were party members, but that regime was horrific, and I believe that it is slightly disingenious to try and seperate the German armed forces totally from it. That is why, at times, I found it slighty disconcerting to be sinking British and American ships. I mean, the German/Nazi/Fascist was a quite nasty one.

That is one reason that I enjoy SH4 a bit more. I feel more comfortable sinking Japanese ships than I do tommies.

All of this might sound silly, and a bit OT, but even playing these sims, at times I have a hard time seperating the politics from what I am doing.

Hi bobo

Your opinion is shared by more the a few members. There are a
handful of members that feel a begging cup approach is the
solution. And I'm sure UBI suits are laughing at that. If you look
at it from a business and credibility stand point. It would be afore
mentioned suicide to not at least patch if not somewhat finish.
Time will tell. Besides, alot of members are enjoying it and that is
in no small part by are GREAT MODDER community.

I have SH3 and SH4 too.

I've been playing SHII and the Pacific Aces mod. To me they are enjoyable.

Perhaps they care. I could see some possible results:

- improved SHIV through another patch
- a better overall SHV on release day
- no SHV at all, why bother with these people they say
- very few modding options in SHV, since modded SH5 might keep people from buying SH6
- frustrated developers
- lots of laughter in the office - "who is this bobo guy" ?
- strange looks, nodding, etc.
