Pukko 0 Posted April 21, 2002 I actually reistalled it yesterday, thinking it would be fun to go out again, but naaahhh. Played a couple of missions in januari, but think it felt like the older subsims like 'Aces of the deep' and SH (did not play that much). I feel a little disappointed about such a new game with only little better graphics and features - have not tried destroyer command though, maybe multiplayer there is fun. The major drawback is that the campaigns are'nt dynamic, I even think Aces of the Deep was. Scripting takes away much of the fun I think... EDIT: But I have not tried out any mods to it either; please tell if there are any good ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted April 21, 2002 What would make it better is if it had a dynamic campaign like in the original SH, and if it would let you actually spot ships on your own... I swear, the lookouts have insane vision Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sadico 1 Posted April 21, 2002 I played the first Silent Hunter a lot of time ago, and liked it a lot. Is SH2 good? By the way, if you like naval combat sims, then Harpoon 4 is gonna be your game. I don't know when will it be finished though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted April 21, 2002 If I need a fat addon and it is too large I go to the trainstation and buy a computer magazine with a CD inside. There you usually always find all addons. In the end it gets cheaper! (no flatrate) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Die Alive 0 Posted April 22, 2002 I think I played the first Silent Hunter on my NES way back when. I loved just patrolling around and finding my own possible targets. -=Die Alive=- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChickenHawk 0 Posted April 22, 2002 I have it, and Destroyer Command too. Its a fun game online but it gets very boring sometimes... 3 hours per game !!! Wouldnt be too bad if there was a little more action during those 3 hours. The game is buggy as hell and it wasnt worth 60 quid to buy both SH2 and DC. IL2 was around the same price, so was ofp and I think they are a lot better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Die Alive 0 Posted April 22, 2002 I was looking forward to Harpoon 4 since I bought this Jane's game that's something like it, Fleet Command (or something). God, that game was so buggy, that even the patch was worse than what I got from the box. It was one of 2 games I've ever returned (I had to bitch and whine to get them to take it back). Yeah, I hope Harpoon 4 will come out soon, I've always been a fan from the series since H2, so anything from them is a blessing. -=Die Alive=- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pukko 0 Posted April 22, 2002 LOL Since I recently studied statistics and learned about 'statistic significance' (not at all what it sounds like), I had to check out if they were serious, guess not: Wasn't Harpoon4 supposed to be out a long time ago?? Yes, it was. Harpoon4's development history is a convoluted and harrowing tale, unsuitable for small children or pregnant women. Some day, if you buy us some drinks, we might regale you with it. Right now, we're working as fast as we can to make Harpoon4 live up to the high expectations that all have for it. At the current moment, the unfinished Harpoon4 code poses a small but statistically significant threat of erasing all the data on your computer. Therefore, we think it is best not to ship the game quite yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
