Exactly my thoughts.

You're entitled to your opinon, but my opinion is that SH3 looks very primative compared to this. SH5 is far more ambitious in scope, sure there are a few teething problems, there always are, but with a little help from the Modders it'll blow all other subsims out of the water. I predict in one year that nobody will be playing SH3 and it's forum will be closed by Neal.

in short, I bought it and have it tomorrow.

I think it will be the same story in terms of bugs and patches as SHIII and SHIV, but this game is at least much more modable than previous versions.

My plan is to take a wait and see attitute with the DRM, and consider purchasing the game in October/November of this year.

... not until they backpedal on their idea of product policy and a considerable price-drop. I´m not willing to spend good money on mediocre products or support such business conduct.

Although I was almost swayed by the graphics I've decided to wait a while but that could change. Bugs aren't really the issue for me; I've bought plenty of games that have been bug ridden to the point of absurdity and still enjoyed them. My issue is more to with the fact I haven't read a review by someone whose view I respect that has been anything more than lukewarm at best, and that unfortunately chimes with a gut feeling about the game that I've had for a while. There are several design decisions that I disagree with quite strongly and I'm just not willing to pony up the cash for something I don't really fancy.

Secondly, and this one just dawned on me a few days ago, I would much rather a return to the Pacific than another title about U-boats. Nothing wrong with the Atlantic. it's just that my simming heart is in the PTO just now and U-boats don't grab me the way they used to. It'll be back to Imperial waters to continue the adventures of Commander J. Erasmus Troy and the crew of the USS Greenling. They've had a few tricky situations in the past and it just wouldn't be right to abandon them just now.

If you gonna buy it, then doesnt matter when you buy it. Dont waste your time i think so. Multiplayer can be fun anyway. I think im gonna buy it tomorrow if it arrives there(Turkey).

ENtek-IO · 03-03-10, 01:24 PM

I would love to, but i cant, i know just to well that complete rejection is the only way we have to influence the producers.

I will buy it in a year for 5 Euros in the bargain bin like i did with that crapy sh4.

You are new to this board aren't you? You must be ,..otherwise you would know that this is highly improbable.
Real subsimmers are a patient lot ,they must be,..
