Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific (PC Games, 2007)

the U.S. or regular version of the new SH4 submarine game for PC's is still
pretty expensive, from 40 to 50 dollars on average. some foreign versions
are available for very much less, like this one, from this particular seller.
I got it to start game-play, with intention of getting the U.S. version later
on. it is worth it. BUT, know what you are getting.

the game sets up OK, and does run fine, on basic or better PC requirements for
all versions of the game. but, this is the Russian version of SH4, with option
to setup and run in english. it is version 1.0, the first one. it does NOT
patch to versions 1.01 to 1.03, (the three patch updates put out by the game
maker, ubisoft). and there are alot of basic bugs to the first version. for
best results, the patches are best for long run game play. but you won't get
them to set up with this version of SH4.
also, there are many neat MODS, game modifications, put out by folks who like
to customize things about PC games, inclusing SH4. neat changes and improve-
ments to the basic game. this Russian version will NOT take the Mods out now.
be advised of that.
so, to just get the basic game, Silent Hunter 4, with bugs, etc, go for this
version. it is still fun. but it is not the best available. I will wait for
the market price to come down even further, for a new, un-opened DVD U.S.
version.

Excellent service, promp delivery..... Will Buy again, Game was not good but is not Your Fault. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The item showed up at my door much sooner than expected. Great deal! I would certainly buy from this seller again. Best ebay experience I have ever had. Thanks

good game but I can not load in my pc my win xp 2.4 gz is not fast enough so there it bstays in the box. it just wont go funny cause every other game works etc: flight sim works fine madden football works fine.

The graphics where 9.5 out of 10
story line 10/10
gameplay 9.8/10
overall 9.7/10

At first the control's looked very difficult and different, but after about 20-30 min I was out at see and 1 hour later attacking a convoy, eventually turning the control system into a surprisingly interesting and educational experience, I could have never imagined so don't judge a book by its cover!.

later on as I played further, I found out that allot of people not only play this but are very active online, they have allot of interesting input all over the internet about this game.

towards the end my laptop went out because of a screen defect but I cant wait for it to get fixed so I can continue from where I left off.

loved the 3d graphics used to have this game but due to moving across country i lost it somewhere to i had to rebuy it but!! its well worth the money u pay!! 3d graphics are so nice!! works on vista too

BEWARE! Bought SH4 from these gentlemen. Program loads but will not run properly on a top level machine with 4 gigs RAM and Vista Ultimate. Also will not allow me to exit. Have to crash out. Designated support site "support.ubi.com" is not fnctional. After several pages of complex questions, final page says,"Opps. Sorry. We don't seem to be working!" (Two days in a row). EBay sellers site does not provide mechanism for contact.

Excellent addition to the series. I have all 4 now and I was waiting (impatiently) for an update on Silent Hunter. 2 and 3 only cover the atlantic and I personally think the pacific is far more challenging.

So far every game of the silent hunter games are killer if you ask me once I start the game I just can't quit so if you don't mind playing a game for days or weeks then I would recommend!!

Fast Shipping!! Product was as advertised, and in very good condition. I would buy from this seller again.

If it is commanding a big submerged war machine in pursuit of the enemy, engaging them with torpedoes, deck guns and anti-aircraft guns that you're into, this game will completely satisfy you! Taking place in WWII, when submarine production soared, theg ame also offers some historic value and keeps your interest.

The graphics are supurb. However, the navigation, crew management, and maps were not up to the standards of the eariler Silent Hunter III which I also have.
I prefer the older version. I liked having control over repairs, crew management. The crew was much simplier in the older version with only enough crew for 2 shifts. Anyway, it still an interesting simulator. Just not the best.

I used to play Silent Hunter many years ago and was so happy when a Pacific theater version was released. SO much that I bought it even though my computer would not run it. I have since upgraded my computer. I love the graphics in the game. It is especially cool to see the torpedoes hit and the ship explode. It will take some time to learn the game. The manual isn't that helpful. One hassle, for example, is getting to the patrol zone quickly. You leave port and put it in excellerated time mode and it pops back to 1x every 5 minutes for an airplane or ship spotted. I'd love to bypass all that and jump to the patrol zone. Myabe there is an option to do that, but I haven't found it.

It is a pretty technical simulation, the last sub game that I played was on a Commodore 64 so that's been a while. The graphics are very exceptional. It takes forever to get from one place to another which I'm sure is for the realism but in my old sub games you would see time progress a lot faster and it would get you into the fight with ships faster. I haven't had the "spine chilling" moments like I got with my old C64 game but that could be because I played it 15 years ago but I would say if you are into sub games this is showing what a hyped up pc system can do. I recommend doing the update to 1.4 it cut out a lot of the bugs and seems to work with Vista pretty well.
