At least Bethesda actually make good games which stay clearly within their own genre and don't muddy the waters.

Hahahaha, I love this thread. It's so sad but it's nice to sing a merry tune as the spaceship flies into the sun! I love the one about the Navigator improving the weather.

Imo they ruined fallout series,just like Ubi sh series now.
Adding that strange super abilities wear bonuses to falloutIII,kill naturality of dialogues is simmiliar for me what ubi does to the sh. - similiar feelings
In my opinion,only BioWare makes games i can`t rant in nowdays,they still pretty decent game devs.

I thought the Navigator was a junior officer who got that assignment, because any of the seniors could do it, and they checked up on him. Once again it sounds like they're trying to bring a lot of cool new stuff to the game, and not quite getting how it actually worked.

Hello, Steve!

Besides the glasses and some other nonsense, I think they actually got something pretty much right: navigator's age. You know, usually U-boat's navigator wasn't officer at all, but older warrant officer. Actually I don't know a single case where in Kriegsmarine a junior officer was given navigator's billet. For example Suhren (U-564) had a warrant officer of 43 years old as a navigator. The man, nicknamed Stürkorl (Rudder-Carl) was the oldest man on board.


And what becomes to SH5: Oh, no...


Greetings,

In the first case I think it is poor use of language and they used the word "Army" in the place of military.

In the second it is an obvious typo.. it should have read "sweets".

The spelling and grammar on that site are awful. Pulling apart such things in a forum post are one thing, but on a website made to advertise the game....

The start of the campaign page says:

Quote:
Britain and France declared war to Germany following their invasion of Poland.
Who the hell wrote that?? How do you declare war TO a country rather then ON a country.. and the way it is phrased sounds like Britain and France invaded Poland!

Quote:
Being an island, the British are highly depended on imported goods taken from their colonies to the mainland.
Depended.. not dependent? Could probably go on all day....

Sorry, she was pitched overboard during the last storm. We took a vote, but I think you were back in the galley tasting the soup.

The writing itself was definitely cringe-worthy, but I didn't hit on that as hard because I wasn't certain it was just a (poor) translation.

But if that's the English they meant to use ... wow.

Oh! My! [insert favority entity]!

Could none of you have warned me beforehand?

I clicked on the Link, the Page "Your Crew" opened up and as I read the Name of the Torpedo Officer, i spit my Tea right over my keyboard and screen. In fact, I had to laugh so hard, Tea came also out of my nose.
I swear to your favourite God that I never laughed so hard since I am out of Elementary School about 30 years ago.

Maybe it's just me and maybe you have to be german to get it, but it seems the Devs play a bad Joke on us that is far beyond what one would call "cheesy".

I would explain why I had to laugh hard seeing that Name but I don't want to serve Brig Time. As far as I understand it, it's not okay to talk openly about anything sexually explicit in Forums, especially when they are located in the USA. And I also fear that my english is not good enough to paraphrase enough what I want to say.

Well... I could try it:

As if calling the somewhat shy Soundman "Benno Scheu" ("Scheu" is german for "shy") isn't enough.

The Nickname "Steck Sie rein" (shove/stick her in) together with his last Name "Faust" (Fist), can be taken as a very, very bad wordplay on a sexual technique.
See, it's probably not funny when you are not german... or maybe just not naughty enough.

I just showed my wife the Page and, with a raised eyebrow, she asked me if the programmers did that on purpose.

And, to be honest, I don't know the answer.

Maybe we all should stop making fun, the Bosun looks just like Agent 47



One more Question: To be a descendant of Heinrich Heine, wouldn't it be necessary that Heinrich Heine had Children?
