Silent Hunter 4 patch v1.3: Where? When? What? - Page 10

Kingcobra24 · 05-16-07, 09:02 AM

With as many bugs and glitches this sim has, it'll take more...a LOT more...than just one more patch. SH3 had fewer glitches and problems, and it took FOUR patches to make it halfway playable. And just like SH4, the modders have had to do Ubisoft's work for them. The modders do the work of the developers, and the developers get the large paychecks. (Those who do not learn from the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it)

Yes please don't forget Multiplayer. Too often it's forgotten.

Limerick · 05-16-07, 09:04 AM

I agree. Petition signed.

tater · 05-16-07, 09:07 AM

A third patch is the bare minimum for the game to function as advertized.

If the game is to be what it could be, such a patch will also require some work above and beyond the substantial work required to make it functional.

Signed.

I second Neal's demand :

SH4 need at last one more patch. It's a great game, don't let it down.

Iron Budokan · 05-16-07, 09:12 AM

Neal is correct. Please, UBI, listen to him. And us.

Please don't quit on the game now. You're so close to producing something really special. Give these Guys one more patch to fix this game, and let us all be proud of Silent Hunter 4.

Thanks,

AMEN!!!

Yes, UbiSoft needs to come out with at least one more patch.

- Chronometer: regardless of whether it is a must have or not, it doesn't work as described in the manual so it needs fixing
- Radar: annoying that it doesn't work and that air radar also picks up ships
- Some graphical glitches still exist in the game
- AI sometimes shows that the 'I' in 'AI' is not present.

So, don't let my €44 go to waist and please bring out the patch.

SH4 is a seriously broken game. Without the mods, it would be all but unplayable as intended.

UBI either needs to STEP UP and fix it, or STEP AWAY and release the development tools (SDK?) to the community.

I support and back what Neal Stated.....

Syxx_Killer · 05-16-07, 09:29 AM

I don't have SHIV and in its current state do not plan on getting it. However, if Ubi can fix the most problematic bugs listed and finish the game right, I will get it. So, yes, I am in full support of a patch 1.3.

gutterrat13 · 05-16-07, 09:33 AM

I agree too! The game is good. A patch could make it great.

Dane · 05-16-07, 09:34 AM

Ubi, we need the fix. Without it, I haven't played SH4 for more than a week. I need a fix!

wireman · 05-16-07, 09:38 AM

man, so much griping.:rotfl:

Jas451 · 05-16-07, 09:40 AM

Have played every Silent Hunter. Totally agree with Neal. This game not finished, needs to be fixed
