Jeebus. If you feel the need to play on 0% realism, playing GWX at all is probably a bad idea for a while. It kind of negates the easiness.

Are you suggesting I should play stock SH3?

I haven't played that at all. I installed the game, as per signature, when I got it and thus far I've enjoyed it immensely. I don't quite follow 'negates the easiness' but I do 'feel the need' to carry on having fun with the game, all be it with the input of all the helpful people on this forum.

Regards, Gavin.

I don't have experience with GWX, but it's more or less considered a lot more difficult and harsh than stock. I was just saying that if you're looking for a smooth and easy introduction to the game, the most logical route would be to play stock. Just seems a bit sadistic to play a mod designed for people who are bored of winning and not getting relentlessly hunted. :hmm:

Also it slightly undermines the work of both Ubi and GWX team if you don't have any idea what the difference is between the two. It's your call though I doubt anyone really cares. :p

In this case i disagree with Capa, which is a rarity

What GWX does is make it more realistic - in my opinion, we're playing a sim, it should be as close as possible. If this means that you can be detected easier, so be it.

I think introducing yourself to the game at 0% with GWX is a great move, you get the added units, the lovely graphics improvements, but you still get all the help you need to learn - ie, the noise meter, periscope stabilisation, and tails on radio reports to help you judge intercepts better.

As you improve, take off things like the noise meter, etc, and work your way up. Im on 74% now, plenty of people find even that too easy and head for 100%. Mohr i think plays on 56% or so if im not mistaken.

What im getting at is that you play at what you think suits, but i think its best to keep GWX
