Errr... are you absolutely sure it's not a photoshop joke from Neal? lol
If Neal really has a preview copy, now i'm starting to get relieved...
UBI probably wouldn't send one to someone who really knows what he's talking about with sub sims if the game was meant to have become über casual or was of poor standards and kiddy. Risks of bashing and complaining, for good reasons, are otherwise way too high on this site. This, from clever people you won't buy their "that's great!" attitude with a few tricks.

It might be a clue that they're confident enough in their game to face the risk of generating a disaster response from the forum here.

So if I should happen to be in Pearland, and my car should happen to break down in front of your house, you'd let me in to use the SH5....I mean, phone, right?

Hey, any chance you can give me a ride in that faulty car of yours?

The real question here is if Neal got a preview or review copy of the game.

Now, if Neal is doing a preview, and not a review, I think the best thing that could happen would be for him to file his playtest report, and then we hear about a delay, so some things can be fixed. Or they can have a patch ready on release day.

Did you remember to include the minefield and turrets with Neal's copy?

Very sure

Actually, you may want to hold on to your anxiety. As you know, they stalled on send us a copy.... until the generic gamer magazines could theirs into print first....

Yeah, it does not take long to do a preview...I'm just not sure it's worth the effort, the game will be out on 3 weeks. I will give the game a good testing this weekend, and get back with some preview details. I will also test the Uplay stuff. Just to be clear, I have an early version of the game, so yes, there are some bugs and glitches. Not much different than the early beta I got of SH3, it had bugs too. That's why they keep working on the game and don't put the beta up for sale Mainly, I have to spend some time with the game, with an open mind, and give it a chance to prove itself. Then a preview.
