Game ain't playable. You need to manually edit the campaign files and all sort of lines, and even still you can't progress as you normally would, getting new upgrades and the like.

And the release was nuked on the main page, so lets just sit and wait for a PROPER before spoiling the game for ourselves Very Happy


You are next!!

I cant belive people say this game works.

Please show me ANY torent site where there are people leaching and saying it works. It allways crashed especially on 2nd mission, unless you start editing the campaign. And even then your upgrades and other stuff doesnt work.

It might take some months before this gets cracked and i assume one of the people who are cracking it needs to finish the game first in order to be able to reverse engeneer the copy protection.

Exactly.

But you can belive that this game will be fully cracked, lest UBISOFT wins. Scene groups might hate us p2p'ers, but they hate cocky companies and their DRM promises even more.

It will be very hard to beat this one this time... so the only option is to try to enjoy in the way it is, I like submarines and I´m playing the game using mods and I get the upgrades, have my sub with new camouflage + radar + bold system... Campaign 2 rolling , no many CTDs here in a fresh XP SP3 even with plenty of mods active... of course I will love to see full crack for don´t have to do all this extra "work"... and hope the DRM fail damn you UBI !! haha

Yet another funny DRM related story.

German gamers that bought the special edition of SH5 were locked out of the game yesterday because someone forgot to remove nazi symbols (which are forbidden in germany) in the manual from the special edition. So Ubisoft simply disabled the ability to play the game in these cases until they've sent in the manual for replacement.

My feelings are that the more ideological hurdles countries put on developers/publishers the fewer and poorer games we'll see.
I cite Iain Smedley and Julian Stallabras as examples of how firm the community must be when political ideology attempts to interfere with our love of gaming.

The problem with ubisoft isnt that theyve made a drm and said "well we think this will keep back piracy for at least a few months so people who cant wait will buy the game".

Instead theyve made a drm and said "its uncrackable, yet, no one can do it, impossible yuck yuck yuck"

Because of that theyve made scene groups have a reason to compete for

I dont understand it. For me, WW2 is just another piece of history. Not closer than the wars of ancient rome or greece. Every age had its tyrants and its ridiculous to believe, that history will not repeat itself. In fact: suppressing ideologies, pushing them underground out of fear they might become dominant again, is just an invitation for it to happen, as people following those will try to compensate and push all that harder against the system.

Things like banning the swastika, or the communist symbols, especially from games where they only serve to enhance historical authenticity is ridiculous. Just because they are not there, you are still commanding an u-boat of the nazi kriegsmarine (thats navy in german). If you are the type, you will still feel being the part of it, with that symbol being there, or not.

It is one of those pointless rules that makes me wonder, why humanity has not gotten rid of all the politicians a loooong time ago.

everything you say is absolutely true, but in this case the banning of nazi symbols happened most likely due to the fact that the jews were offended by it and also saw this as an act of pay back, not to mention that many jews are powerful people and the USA pretty much supports Israel in everything... either that, or the germans wanted to forgive their past and history (be it good or bad) so much that they tried "erasing" it..
(not a racist or discriminatory comment, but it's just how things look to me)

Why would the jews be offend it by it? 90% of the jews alive today didnt live during ww2.
If anything its a part of history that they would want to be remembered so that it doesnt repeat itself.

Thats pretty much it. I always keep wondering how long before we can forget about that part of our history and look at it as that: history.

Talking about the holocaust: Its been more than 50 years now. How much longer should we dwell on that i wonder? Will another 50 years suffice? Another 100 prehaps? Or should we forever feel sorry for what happened to them during WW2?

Eventually, humankind will just have to move on. Smile I hope we manage to do that soon, as all this WW2 based nonsense is starting to get real boring.

Just so you know, this week, our head of state has signed the law that makes the denial of holocaust punishable under the law. So nope, people are obviously not over this yet. Dont even get me started on how i feel about a law that effectively contradicts the countries constitution, which gives everyone the right to free speech.

Then again, we are wandering a lil off topic here tho, so let's just leave it at that. sorry for derailing the thread. Smile

Concisely put, perhaps the German nation feel they need to ban nazi symbolism not their sakes but for everyone's else's in a show of contrition?
All I know is that state-sponsored ideology harms gaming.

Trust me; the world is much better off with a ruling class the people can remove by voting, than say generals, priests, kings or anarchy. We have a few thousand years of empiric data and I'd say the common man is better off with politicians that are accountable to the people.

Much better? The problem is, that you compare bloody handed dictators to ideal democracies. Cool, an ideal democracy is a lot better than a dictatorship.

The average democracy is far from ideal and a badly functioning democracy only differs from mild dictatorships in its outside. Inside it is very similar.

Install this mod :
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=163444 - this give you hotkeys known from sh3/4 and then turn on TDC press shift+ I and voila, you know the enemy now.


I just figured out,that manual save game campaign editing works almost perfectly,but i do not know if this work around disable registering unique ships sinking, because i sunk HMS Nelson twice. Funny thing because she respawn 3 klicks away from her wreck.

that respawn is something would happen in sh3 etc, as the campaign was not dynamic, the ships would always respawn incase they were sunk while u were not about by ai mistakes etc..

so sh5 supposed to have dynamic campaign eh? now im wondering if this is really accurate.

I remembering the devs saying that in SH5 if you sink a capital ship(battleships,carriers) it will remain sunk... so it's possible the .cfg might need a bit more editing, or they just screwed up
