Changing to SHIV.

Actually, being picky and weird, i think the part you bolded acts like an 'if' statement - something to the effect of 'if i had it, it would capture my attention'. But that's still a conditional, not a proposition. And having read ol' Duce's last post, I still don't know...i fear he's on a great cusp here...sliding back to some nameless MMO...heaven forbid. There's a similar indecision in me right now. Well it's twofold - for one, my hardware's choking on SH3 so SH4 should be nice and chunky. More importantly, does it ever get better than an IXC in 1942? After hearing that the american subs can only open one tube at a time, i wonder, how can sh4 expand on my sh3 experiences? Is it worth a hardware upgrade?

I might get SHIV one day,at the moment I'm treating it a bit like Vista. If they iron all the major bugs out I might be interested.

It's a shame to see so many of you guys going, and in all honesty the day that SHIV was released this forum became pretty empty. There is nothing to stop you guys popping in occasionally and saying hello - is there?

I'll still be here - along with the other die hards.

Good hunting Kaleuns - see you around

You can be sure of that matey

I will not be heading to the pacific waters but staying in the Atlantic. Did pre order SHIV via subsim but amazon just put my order back till the 23rd of May so i desided to cancel the order and wait a while before i pick up a copy. That is if i can drive myself away from SH3 and GWX.

I've got both loaded up and running but SH3/GWX is always going to be the mainstay/favourite

svenks · 03-23-07, 01:11 PM

Farewell to SH3???

No way! I'm enjoying SH3/GWX far too much! Oh, I will buy it in time, but for now I will leave you guys to sort out the bugs

EDIT: OH NO! The dreaded medic avatar!!! Is that my punishment for not embracing SH4???

This is not the end.
This is not even the beginning of the end.
But perhaps, it's the end of the beginning.

That said, I will buy SH4 as soon as my own computer is back from repairs. Which means I will play it for quite some time. I don't know if I'll ever come back to the Kriegsmarine, but I doubt I will forget all about the pleasures that SH3 gave me. It was SH3 that opened my interest for the U-boats, and also led me here to these forums. Then again, nothing stops me from playing both right?:hmm:

I have to agree with Robbo, and echo his sentiments.

I'll probably get SH4 at some point in the future when it's fixed and the price drops... I've said that before too. LOL Until then I'm sticking with SHIII/GWX and do what I can to help out...... I ain't a modder by any means but testing is fun.

The future of SH4 will certainly be interesting no matter what's done with it.

Deep-Six · 03-24-07, 06:47 AM

For right now I am stuck in the Atlantic, until the game is in the stores here in Dallas. (which has not happened yet). And yes, I will play both games, esp since I am German decent. SH4 will also appeal to me that am also torn to fighting the Japs.

So for now I am still here.

ReallyDedPoet · 03-24-07, 07:08 PM

I will continue to play both, as of this I don't have SH4 yet, but soon

RDDR · 03-24-07, 08:10 PM

This is in no way a goodbye.
In fact...Listen!

I refuse to choose between SH3 and SH4.

To me they are different games. Sometimes I will play SH3 and other times I will play SH4. There will even be times I play neither.

To me, it is not a question of one or the other, it is more a question of having the best of both worlds.
