Silent Hunter 5

Surely niche developers MUST now walk the path of independance? Like DCS? Having to go through Ubi to publish hardcore sims seems to doom something like this to failure before it's even released...

 

Buying it doesn't support the actual developers, it seems to just support Ubi, who are the ones making all the bad decisions.

Bang on.

That's the way it seems to me.

But not everyone can spread the development costs over 2 markets.

What 2 markets do you mean?

The sim- market is small. And it is about the money. No one works for free. Maybe ED are still in business because they make also applications for the military. Like this they afford to release a part of the software for the market.

Exactly.

I don't think its UBI that needs the support? They are the publisher who push small company's like whoever it is that made SH5 by saying "it WILL be released on xx:xx:xx date ready or not" at least that's what I've heard.

 

Its a pity this happens.

 

I'm going to keep my eye on SH5 though, from what I last read at Subsim it does have potential once its patched properly, a few community mods would be nice too ;) meanwhile I'm still quite happy with SH3 and Grey Wolves mod.

That may indeed be true. But it's UBI itself, which now doesn't identifies with sims anymore. they will keep publishing their mainstream stuff. I hope that in the future some publishing firm will show up that will focus only on sims and encourage developers to continue working on such.

UBI is a money machine they can't support product for small number . it's a pity definitly agreed . but sometimes we see nice stuff like SH3 , can't tell about SH5 don't have it . the moment when you heard you officer saying "ship spotted" was something difficult to describe

Let's see, I had SH4 and the day was like this: start game at 11:00 in the morning, cross lot's of Ocean, see a convoy on map, race to convoy to see it's not there, find a small tanker, sink her, look at the clock and it's 3:00pm in the afternoon!!!!!1 wtf.........boooooooooorrrriiiinnnnggggg, good if your not married, definately don't have kids and the weather outside is always crappy.

don't know about latest SH but SH3 was , for me one of the greatest game of all time

Agreed ... Its a classic :thumbup:

but sometimes we see nice stuff like SH3

I played SH2. When SH3 came out it was like: I should have been called: SH7, really generations away.

But back to UBI: I don't thing you will see any "sims" from them, it's good that they still encourage some innovative ideas (like RUSE) but everything is market oriented.

i think my rig upgrade will come sooner than previously planned . i've seen we can get some nice little i3 for cheap now

question

To take a picture ( digital image ) From keyboard

or camera digital

What are you asking?

If you want to take a screenshot, there is a dedicated key for that on your keyboard - Print Screen. Saves screen data to clipboard, can paste into any program you like. Or just Paint.

I have a problem in this word only

( digital image )

And the problem is related to my activation sh5

Thanks

IMO there's no need for sudden eruption of SH series...

SH5 doesn't look any beter than SH3 in terms of eye-candy.

On top of that I got bored by just looking at a single YT video of it, I mean what's there that you haven't seen in previous versions of the game?

Another dislike for me is a constant stormy wather in open seas that makes me wait and wait and wait for a conwoy which noone can see...I can watch my nails grow by the time I get a contact...

BTW I wish for a proper WWII, cold war & modern day tank simulator...more dynamics there...

It is a bit hard to understand your problem. Can you give a bit more information about the context where you have that problem?

:cry:problem solved for buy new serial sh5

But this word ( digital image ) I did not understand

ubisoft They asked me, I give them the ( digital image ) form game

Personally, I do not understand Do you take this picture of keybord or camera

Ubisoft want a "digital image" (photograph) of your SH5 serial to prove that you are the owner.

They asked me the same, that's how I see it.

"digital" = "all what has to do with computers"

"image" = picture

I think, they just want a screen shot from you where they can see the problem that you are having. Someone in this thread already described how you can do that.

And yes, you could probably just make a photography of your computer monitor with a digital camera or with your smart phone. But making a screen shot would be easier, I think.

You are right

But what to do with this rule ubi
