Default SH5 LET DOWN

hi all
im not bad mouthing sh5, i like the sim, just find it annoying having to move the captian around the boat to do tasks, wish they had kept the game play the same as sh3 and 4. why fix something if its not broken ?
i seem to be going back to sh3 more and more. plus i dont like the way it can only be used with a connection, which stops me using it on my laptop when traveling. anyone feel the same ?
PS i also heard of people playing sh3 in multiplayer battles. is this true

cheers

UI mods have been made to bring the SH3 (one also allows SH4 style) of controls back to SH5. check the SH5 MODS forum.

All the functionality of sh3 has been returned to sh5. as for moving around.. honestly I moved the 'free cam' around in sh3 as if I was the captain for immersion purposes.. so I love the first person captain feel of sh5.

The only thing sh3 has now is additional content.. that is it. And sh3 has had alot more time to BUILD that library of content... sh5 is working on it and it will get there and pass it.

I disagree with this statement. Sh3 gameplay is much better IMHO. Mind you I play SH5 occasionally, and like it for different reasons, but I dont belive SH5 comes anywhere close to SH3.

It just occured to me, that in 10 years from now, people will still be praising SH3 as the best submarine sim, regardless of what's done to improve SH4 or 5.

I know and its getting slightly ridiculous given the state of the games, most of the die hard sh3 fans act like sh5 is a leper or something...
