General Comments

I looked forward to Silent Hunter 3 for about 4 months. I bought it on the day of its release and got it home and was impressed initially. Sinking a ship was fun, the interface was quite good and the graphics and views were impressive. Thats where it stopped.
For those of you who enjoy realism in your simulators you are in for a bit of a disappointment. IL2 was one of the best aircraft simulators I have played with excellent sounding aircraft. Yet on Silent Hunter 3, the aircraft sound like ballistic lawn mowers. In campaigns don't look to the sky for weather because on a bright sunny day you'll be informed there is a storm in progress and you won't be able to use your deck gun. Your flak will be out of bounds to, even though aircraft are attacking you in wonderful clear skies.
Its little things like this that ruin a game for me, causing frustration and disbelieve. Especially the weather. The aircraft noise is pathetic, it just seems cheap.
All I have to say is that I hope some patches come out or this game is gettin deleted.
