And do you realy think ubi is beta testing patches? They dont even beta-test their games why should they betatest patches...

Have you SecuRom after patching?
If you have not, it's beta with limited time of work ...?

I have used 1.3 long enough to know that this is as good as SH4 is ever gonna get, as far as Ubi are concerned (at last, it's everything it should've been in the first place). It's up to the Modding Community now, to make any additional improvements/changes. I look forward to those and to SH5 (If SH4 met the sales targets that is).

Patch 1.3 was Beta tested by some good testers...including some members here.

i'm gonna wait till it officially released as there may still be some things to fix/add, like the retirement bug, and don't tell me it's a feature

Bando · 07-10-07, 06:22 AM

me too

TDK1044 · 07-10-07, 06:27 AM

Waiting for the official patch is the smart move. You won't have long to wait.

When you pick up a contact on the hydrophones, the green warning light above the bearing indicator will now light up.

After playing my first mission in a campaign.

Destroyed half the japanese navy i believe and also a trooper.

But the only thing that irritates me is that when you set your timecompr.
higher than 512 the stopwatch does appear.

Further it`s a great sim.

No idea. Started my career in '42

Have they fixed the sound problems, like missing voices for crash dive and rudder midships instead of just rudder??? Its little things like that which really bug me!

Is the problem with magnetic torps just from historic failures of the torp? Early in the war the torps had a crazy failure rate sometime only a few out of the entire stock would actually detonate! Which is weird as I've only ever seen ONE dud in the whole time I've been playing SHIV.

I'll never understand these "complaints" about the watch popping up. At that degree of TC the sun comes up in a hurry and I kind of like to know what time of day it is.

Completely agree, its very helpfull to have the watch pop up during high TC, helps me know what time of day it is especially if you manually navigate and expect to be at X by a certain time.

Definately a feature

I never used the watch for normal time, just as a stopwatch, is it set to LOCAL time?
