I meant i thought i could provide my own feedback on the game itself what i thought of it and the level of play the realism and compare it to sh3 and sh4 but i have decided to wait and force ubisoft to change there ways. If they dont maybe i will change my mind down the line but for now some of the other members here are correct we need to wait I mean but for other members that want to buy the game I think thats great because they can provide feedback on the game and let us know how it is I guess its just dissapointing that ubisoft did this because this is the only game I was interested in this year thats coming out

For those who have been frustrated with the recent server issues here at subsim......imagine you just paid $50 for a video game and the same thing is happening.

You may only have a couple of hours that you can commit to playing SH5 on that day, and the servers are down when you try and access the site.

Classic!

As a long time MMORPG junkie I know this all to well. New game/expansion is about to be released, hype is building up, some vacation is planed and before you know it the big day has arrived. You happily install the game/expansion and try to log on to the server to register/upgrade an account just to have a lot of timeouts. Then you manage to do that and wait for the game to patch and then finally you just have to wait for the server to come back up from the latest crash. This might go on for 24 hours or so....



And you promise yourself not to be there on launch day next time... hrrm yeah.

i second that!
we will inform,learn and talk about the game together once it's installed on our computers.
ubisoft hasn't turned us down when we requested things like an entire sub to run trough and all those things we would like to see.
so now that they present us a product in wich they have to combine our wishes with the need to reach a larger public it's up to us not to let them down.
i'll buy silent hunter 5 just like i bought the other four!

I canceled my pre-order. Been down this road before with a couple of other titles and it just is not worth the headache. If I am paying top dollar for something, I want to be able to use it WHEN I WANT.

In the end, everyone has to make up their own mind. The group cannot make the decision for you. It sounds like you have put a lot of money into building your machine around this title. That is not a small expenditure. Sounds like a tough call in your case.

No Neal, don't have a beer! Put more coins in the Subsim server slot to keep it running.

My favourite variation on that is:

Very useful in the office when trying to explain some people's behaviour/attitudes......

I say buy it, if you're so inclined, and feel free to report on its awesome gooey goodness center (once you bite through the nasty putrid DRM crust).

Realistically, one copy ain't gonna make a difference.

It might convince the rest of us to put up that much more of a stand against OSP, so Ubisoft might just relent that much sooner, so the rest of us can get along with putting money in Ubisoft's pockets.
