I rebought SH III 15 mins ago...

As a payware download. I simply realized that I couldn't live without it!

(I still did get 24€ extra ca$h, but lost the map & manual...)

*Sigh*

Well that is a shame. Did you not try GW mod for the game? I all but gave up on it but GW mod put some new life back in it! I have not stopped playing since I got it. I even stopped messing with IL2 and I never thought that would happen. I cannot wait for SH4!

Yes. I've used GW ever since it came out. Kudos to the great modders who made it, and Kpt.Lehmann, yes, I'm finished with the potatoes you asked me to peel...

IL2...

Yes, I am a very frequent user of IL2, have always been and will always be I guess. I have a virtual squadron, and am enjoying it very much. I suppose I'm just made for more "action-packed" games.:hmm:

Oh, and sorry to all the moderators I've annoyed since November the 30th 2005, the day when I first joined Subsim.com!

Was excessive playing involved?

You might find that after a break/rest for a while you want to come back to SH3. I find that tends to happen with me (with other games).

Whatever you do, enjoy

does the GW mod add that much life to the game? I just bought SHIII last night and can't stop playing it. I can't imagine it being any better. What does the GW mod add that makes it worth installing it? I have read about all the features but can someone give me some personal thoughts?

And you feel compelled to tell us why ?

BAAAAAAAAAAAAD idea. You can only install 4 times with this payware DL. It's the most sucky thing you can do...

And I begin to sink...

And sink...

I blow ballast like a thousand times, but it doesn't help. The lights go out, the hull integrity decreases and...

at 163m my beautiful boat is destroyed by pressure.


In 1939!!!

I feel like such a n00b!



You aren't. You're sound man didn't report the Ship, nor did you see it, and it got you at PERISCOPE DEPTH! A real boat wouldn't have survived that either, i bet my underwear! (Wich in never use anyway).
