I have nothing against it being there if it can be avoided which looks like it can, but thinking about how much more developing time the dev team would had if such rubbish would have been left out, oh well.ĭefault 1.00 shop version is buggy, really buggy. So far of about 10hrs or so gameplay, I have not used the RPG elements in crew management much at all, I think I once clicked the discussion dialog and it was really stupid in my opinion. but there is also tons and tons of old features removed from the UI.Īs expected the console UI is horrible, just disgusting really. There are few new features like the time compression travel mode and SHIFT-+ key combination to immediately jump into 8192 time compression etc. well it is looking great, the graphics are like watching a movie really (not including crew animations). I bought it (I cant believe that happened), played it. I wrote this to BIS forums SH5 topic so I decided to paste it here as there are maybe few lines new to the existing comments I made. I'll try to post more after few days of gaming time. Remains to be seen how much can be tweaked by options and modding. I'm okay with it so far, but it does feel very different and console like. I walked to the bow and just stood there for minutes observing the Kiel canal etcĮxplosions are somehow strange, they are too quick and seems some parts of the flame graphics seem like almost 2d sprites while others are really great looking flames, again difficult to explain.Īll in all I only had 4 or so hours time on the game yet, difficult to say if its good or not. I found out that I had no interest of "talking to the crew", I mostly admired the new graphics on deck of the sub. The torpedo data computer (TDC) is totally insane now, you have to somehow lead the targets. When plotting course I got several stutters, maybe because of loading new map terrain data. Its nice that you can select travel mode for time compression (TC) so it wont stop TC for shallow water, land proximity and other ship proximity. Had some problems to get on way for the first patrol, I tried to board the submarine on the sub pen but couldn't, had to dig deep to find the select mission from the officer RPG dialog menu. Also the moving around sub using the new WASD keys feels wrong, again difficult to explain.

The first person shooter style walking around feels somehow clunky, difficult to explain. The keyboard controls with the user interface has been totally reworked, its like nothing we have gotten used to. Today I played another 2 hours on the first campaign patrol of mine. I finally finished the download, installed it and played 2 hours last night. although I wont be surprised if it is.Īll in all, I'm looking forward to try it out and definitely hoping it would be great and make SH3 finally obsolete.ĭownload is ongoing, I'll post my review of it when its done However few of the latest screenshots and especially the videos have started to turn me around a bit, I'm trying to keep objective mind now that I wont start it up expecting trash. In many ways the previews I've seen from it looks really bad with the console user interface, ship health bars, god eye mini map and the ridiculous 3d crew role playing game elements.

Currently I have both SH3 and SH4 installed, I ended up playing more SH3 because it just feels more "dirtier" overall. Sure there is uboat missions expansion out, but still it lacks all "heart" of SH3. but as its on pacific it somehow lacks the dirty and gritty German U-Boat feeling ala Das Boot. Only now few weeks ago I installed SH4 again to give it a run on my new hardware and it runs smooth, finally. I have been playing a lot of Silent Hunter 3 (SH3) and also I tested Silent Hunter 4 (SH4) when it came out, but at that time my computer was so old that it didn't run it good. Today I purchased digital download of Silent Hunter 5.

I love submarine simulations, dating back to Silent Service and Red Storm Rising on Commodore C64. This topic is bit offtopic so its on the main forum area however I have long history on other games/sims than those too. PMC Tactical is about OFP, ArmA, ArmA 2 and Falcon 4.
