SH5 is a JOKE!

SSN*593 · 03-11-10, 09:20 PM

You know this is a piss poor game when you need a MOD to fix it; what happened to my CONTROLS, UBI? SH5 looks and feels like a damn kiddy console game on my PC with 4 options; A, B, C, or D. SH5 is an absolute failure and I am/will be getting my CASH back for this massive mistake. It reminds me of what happened to Far Cry; UBI and DEV team butchered it and turned it into console crap. Add this dumb DRM to SH5 and it's a pure failure--how in the world could Neal Stevens NOT see this in his PREVIEW? Somebody, please tell me? How could the "so called expert" of submarine simulation not see that SH5 is a total abortion and software derailment of what was/should be expected in the NEXT installment of this great title

Blind as a bat with no familiar controls, and running around the tin can with the W, A, S, D keys like a first person shooter, no, I don't see the fun in it. There was a CUT SCENE when I started the campaign--what the hell is this? Am I at the movies or is this just a bad dream? I bought this game to be in control of a uboat and I HAVE NO CONTROL!

UBI made it public months ago that there would be no player control in this version. At least that was my understanding, from what I've read.

LOL, yep the JOKE is on me; EVERYONE else knew this was going to be some kind of movie simulation. I thought the whole purpose of continuing a software title was to KEEP THE OLD GOOD stuff, and ADD some MORE GOOD stuff.

Example in point: Adobe CS4; All the OLD GOOD stuff is in it and anytime they IMPROVE on the TITLE (Adobe Photoshop), the user is not blindly fumbling around wondering how to use it.

Give it a new chance with this mod -> http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=163208.
I think that mod gives you the same 'control' as in SH3.

I'm an avid Sub-gamer but I has you to be right and I am very disappointed
This is only the money for Ubisoft and the quality has seen the devil.
I can only hope to put the guys from the Romanian and get same stuff with
Patsch some.
I have created the impression that all other Ubisoft games better than this
And I do not know why?

The Oleg Maddox
For Wings of Prey has invested twice as much time,
And the guys are too smart for that use the mods for the extension.

Silent Hunter 5 has made a step forward, but the step is to small.

So, your first post here bashes the guy who runs the site? Why bother?

Welcome aboard... I think.

Let me show you the engine room... just let me grab my duct tape first. I, uh, need it for something back there.

I trusted Neals judgement and BOUGHT the GAME--I feel betrayed--that's WHY; get a clue! All the other gaming sites don't give this title more than a 5! Now I completely understand why.

my review can be sumed up in one sentence "This POS is a floater in the toilet of PC simulatons and should be flushed with all due haste."

side note........ yes I have played it, and no, it does not deserve to take up space on my friends hard drive. IMO.

On my PS3 it would be tolerable. but it is an insult to my intelligence that UBI would try to pass this POS off as a SIMULATION.

yeah I know I spelt some words wrong......sue me.
