That's what bugs me about SH4 the most.

Patches will be incoming and so will the mods. The game's only been out for four weeks. It will be ok soon
That's where my vote goes.

Well said, there are some threads for bugs, what you don't like, etc. People though seem to ignore them and post like hell everywhere. They are asking Ubi to gets its act together when they can't themselves.

RDP

UBI made the claim that they have their act together by publishing the game and they also got paid for it. The posters that bought the game made no such claim. It would appear that we will have to wait for Silent Hunter 14 before they get it right. At $50 a pop. Or we can hope that another software company will come along willing to dedicate the correct amount of time, financing and resourses to do it right. I think it is a shame that we aren't right now playing the best submarine simultor possible given the technology that is available.

I can remmber when sh3 was first released there was a certain amount of wailing and nashing of teeth but no where near this scale. In fact several conversation with friends who i have gamed with for nearly 20 years they feel that sh4 is the most bugged out game, they have seen in the last 10 years which to be honest i dont think they are far of the mark

I'm not convinced that SH4 is the most bugged game in the last 10 years (Star Trek legacy springs to mind) but it is one of the very few games I have shelved after no more than 3 hours of play. The main reason I'm not playing SH4 now is because of the damned resolution issue which I'm praying will be fixed in 1.2. In the 3 hours I played the game for I had one repeatable CTD, I noticed the log slowdown problem and a few other problems. Personally I would live with the other bugs (for awhile at any rate) if they fixed the res.

SH4 is a really complex piece of software which clearly wasn't given enough development time. I'm sure I speak for the majority here when I say that I sincerely hope UBI provide enough time and resources for the devs to finish SH4 so that it's full potential can be realised i.e. FIX ALL HARD CODED ISSUES, modders can do the rest.

I would ask for one thing from UBI, that they officially post that they will allow the devs to fix all of the major hard coded bugs in a reasonable amount of time. Going back to the original topic... the current lack of guarantees is what bugs me the most about SH4.

Oh gods i forgot about legacy now that was bad from my own view point i can see sh4 being a brilliaint game but its going to take a combination of hefty patches and hard work form the brilliant moding community here at subsim glad we have them.

For me, it's the graphical bugs.

Most of the other things, modders can fix.

But stuff like higher resolutions and Anti Aliasing can't be done via third party.

Give me that and I'll be happy.

As for most bugged game... Try Flight Simulator X. Yikes...

You see.... this is why I HATE polls.

This thread has been dead for 4 1/2 months, the OP hasn't posted here in almost 3 months but somebody votes in it and up it pops.

Seeing as just about nothing in it is valid anymore it is time to put it out of it's misery.
