Default Silent Hunter III Gold Edition

Ubisoft shortly starts to sell the SHIII Gold Edition, this contains also those very disputed AddOn's of X1

Publisher is not Ubisoft directly, it is Rondomdia GmbH, their exclusiv distributor for the "Ubisoft-Exclusiv" budget series.

WAC and NYGM are both superior to those two payware addons too

Yes, but since I'm not really a member of the dev team anymore I can be objective and say that SH3 plus GWX is most deserving of a real SH3 gold status.

That's capitalism, folks.

If you don't like it, help out with the open-source U-boot sim, dangerdeep:

It's easy to complain, harder to do something positive, nevertheless; more worthwhile.

oRGy,
I have tried to dl and install this, but have had no luck. Perhaps I will try again when GWX 1.04 is finished

That's a shame. Be sure to post your problem on the DftD forums before giving up though, they need feedback!

Gold Edition? Well, nice idea. A bit late tough.

I wonder if it contains community mods or ubi enhancements...

I bet no one at ubi even did any Q&A the X1 addons and saw how buggy and crap they are

Still if this version of SH3 is 1.4 and starforce free I might have consider it, assuming the X1 addons are optional installs so I can whack GWX over the top instead.

I made the mistake of buying the first so called 'addon' from X1... **ducks**
My excuse for that is: I had no internet connection at that time so I didn't know about GWX.
But I will NEVER EVER support exploiters like X1 again, I confess!

And I agree, GWX 1.04 should be Gold Edition!

Happy hunting!
