I don't have SH4 so I don't know the differences between the SH3 and SH4 but I would have to agree with this statement as far as both theaters were very different HISTORICALLY!

oh I understand that much, I'm not ignorant of war history. I think I could stand the boredom with the extra refinements GWX would bring. It make a huge difference to SHIII.

Ford,
It was not my intention to call anyone ignorant towards War History, infact Im sure I could write many of papers on WW2 using the knowledge know in these rooms.
I was just "UNDERSTANDING" Torplexed and agreeing with him with the difference in both the Atlantic and Pacific theaters in ww2

Don't worry, no offence taken.

Brings back a few childhood memories

I liken comparing ATO with PTO similar to comparing apples with pears.

Torplexed pretty much sums it up IMHO.

Ten minutes? Really?That's not time enough to make a decision about any complex sim.

I've been happily playing it in the Atlantic with OM installed - not bored at all. I still love SH3, especially with GWX, but every time I try a new mod out I end up reloading the whole thing. SH4 is much more stable in that regard. With that setup the question of Atlantic vs Pacific is also irrelevant.

It would blow anything off the road Jim, 0 to 60 in about 20 minutes

Mind you it was a pleasure to drive in those days, hardly anything on the road. Stop of at a country pub for lunch and a beer. To be honest i hate driving today.
Thanks for the memories Jim.

Thats why I like taking my 125cc motorbike out onto the quiet lanes of derbyshire and sometimes lincolnshire on a nice weekend. Hardly any one about and you can just pottle about where you please, see a lane, wonder where it goes so head off to find out. It also gives me new places to indulge in my other hobby, photography

LOl classic!
i think my father had something similar when i was a nipper! although in serious orange rather then the faded pastel blue.
what was with late 70's early 80's cars and their fixation on THAT colour blue? hehe

i helped a m8 do up a 73 austen allegro 1300 a few years ago, bloody nice it were got to dig those square steering wheels.

oh and back on topic, i tried my depth testing to the max whilst sat silently under a DD on its patrol route and it didn't even flinch.
idiots eh?

Can we start a special old gits section to the forums? where we can remember vintage cars, bikes etc and generally be grumpy about stuff? :P
