I did it!
Yes, SH4 is so buggy that skippers are bailing out for next to nothing just to be free. I just bought a once-loaded SH4 for $20.50 ($15.00 plus $5.50 shipping) from someone who will never play a UBI game again. Folks, if they can't get it together the game is up. You shouldn't have to remember dozens of bugs in order to play the game. Not saving within x miles of land, with ships visible, in port, etc is ridiculous and won't be accepted even if the rest of the game is great. If the routine matters don't work it doesn't matter if the flash and glitter are orgasmic. You have a loser. I will play and enjoy my cheap loser though, since I already know the problems from SH3 and have negotiated the minefield with some small success. For me it's worth it. Don't plan on any new subsimmers being developed though. Ain't gonna happen. And we vets will pick up the discarded copies of their games for peanuts, further impoverishing UBI. Can't say they don't deserve it. I'm going cheap Maru hunting.
