Silent Hunter Survey! WTH?

onelifecrisis · 04-15-09, 05:33 PM

I assume everyone just got the same email I did...

I've not seen such a survey done here before (I've been around here for well over a year) and I'm wondering what the survey is for? There are some curious questions on there, like "how would you rate SH3" which is difficult because how I'd rate it with GWX is very different to how I'd rate the stock game. And then there's this one:

Of the two games [SH3 and SH4] which would you say is technically superior?

My emphasis.
What a strange question!
Any idea what it means?

Yep, same questions here. No idea. Just a wild guess crossed my mind. Is Neal maybe opting to start SH5 development on his own? And trying to get a feel for what we want.

I have no such email, who sent it ??

I am sure it is just to help grasp a better understanding subsim users and SH3 & SH4 players.

I didnt get this email. you have a link for us deprived folk? Is this is an official Ubi survey? or a Subsim one?

Ahoy Pisces!

Ok, it's time for a new survey of Silent Hunter players! It's a quick survey and it will help... you know, understand what SH players like.

Note: Do not reply to this e-mail, please. Enjoy the survey and get your oilskins ready.

Good hunting!

I hear the GWX team reckon the SH4 engine is much more capable than the SH3 engine, so I answered "SH4" based on their judgement... but it still strikes me as a strange question, and I'm not sure I correctly understood what "technically" means.

I believe there are some things better in the SH4 engine.
Some are also worse!

I did not answer the survey because it's to

for me.
But I also go way beyound just casual Game play.

I'd suggest another survey for Modders.

That would bring out the Gloves!

Queens Rules then Mates!

Perhaps the developers really want to get an idea from you, the player, the modder, the moaners in hopes SH5 can come out of the box in a great state of organization and content

Just a thought.

Not Yet Surveyed on Ubisoft.com
As regarding Gloves there Privateer,
Is it not time All Modders Try become Friends,
Let stupid old Issues behind,

The Silent Hunter Modders,
Here will attend To Promote Their Mods,
Be it SH3 Or Sh4,

Every Modder Tries to Improve The Game,

that belongs to Dev Team who Created the game,
Maybe this time around,
The Dev Team need Our Ideas for SH5?
Maybe its just a Survey?
