I appreciate everyones work on the add-on and will install it as soon as the mods are compliant. I'm sure the U-Boats will be good for the sim but I do feel like the Fleetboats have been set aside for awhile.

I guess in the end I understand the reasons but it doesn't make it any easier, plus, I have a great sim as it is now.

I think the addon is a very nice piece of work, and for a price that I smoke away in 2 days, I mean, lol. Sure there are things that could be better or you can discuss to lengths that Ubi should have included other content, or that you don't like uboats. What matters is, the title is alive and being further developed. Or would anyone rather see Ubi kill the franchise?

I for one, would like to hear somewhere this year plans are made for a SH5 due late 2009

Come one elanaiba, you know you want to!

Now, isn't this a little bit insulting, or even flaming, AkbarGulag?

Same here:

Guys, keep it polite! This isn't the place for insults between members. I can't remember any SH3 fan insulting the players of SH4. On the other hand, there's plenty of insulting posts from SH4 fans against people playing SH3. Not nice!

I can!

great to hear a dev makin a post like that. things havent looked better for the silent hunter series since the 1st release over 10 years ago.

now if only wolfpacks can somehow find their way into the game then things really would be perfect

DickDastardly · 02-29-08, 03:44 PM

If people buy the addon then Ubi get to see there's still money to be made in the SH franchise. That's what may fund your Jap subs in the pacific, SH5 or whatever it is that's your particular boat.

An addon for $9.95? That's not much more than the price of a coffee at Starbucks. There's things that I don't particularly like about SH3 and 4, but at least they're out there, which is better than "why don't they make games like that any more?"

joegrundman · 02-29-08, 07:36 PM

This whole SH3 vs SH4, fleet boats vs U-boats, thing is depressing and childish

Nuc · 03-01-08, 08:05 AM

Dan, I want to add my thanks for the post. As far as the marketing guys go, I makes sense to me that if Ubisoft has one product targeted at larger combined market, we'll get a better product than if they have to develop and support two products for two smaller markets

You read these posts and you guys call ME crazy? One guy thinks it's better than sex fer cryin' out loud. You gotta get it on kid AND QUICK! I think some of you have been out to sea waaaay too long.

Me? I love Romanian Bunnies.

great post mate

im new for this forum but i have played this game for a long time i like it a lot

Archie · 03-02-08, 12:49 AM

I'm stayin' outta this one, otherwise Sailor Steve will have to buy me TWO beers at the get together! :rotfl:

Understand the big picture completely, ya can't keep them all happy all the time. PERSONALLY, and in MY OPINION, I would have preferred to see a Japanese expansion, that would make sense to me as a realism junkie in the Pacific, but having said that I completely understand the marketing reasoning for doing what they have done.

At the end of the day, if'n ya don't like the heat, get outta the kitchen, or put another way, just don't buy the add-on (but if you don't you will be missing out on the further developments of the series, and Dan won't be able to buy food next week)

TheSatyr · 03-02-08, 04:48 AM

What I find annoying are all the people going on about how if you are into subsims you have to buy the expansion to support the devs and the franchise. Sorry,but I won't spend a penny on something I do not want,and for various reasons I do not want the expansion.

Yeah it's only 9.95$,but it's 9.95$ I can find a better use for.

elanaiba · 03-02-08, 05:03 AM

Its a free world for sure.
