Its not until you fire up SH3 again that you realise how **** SHO is. This game will fail within weeks of it going live. I won't invest anymore time in it. They failed when they didn't get a decent team of english moderators in the game and on the forums answering our questions.

Most of the people who want to play this game will already have seen the beta. By the time its finished they would have lost all the respect and the potential customers they so desperately needed.

Whoever green lit this project should be fired. Even if it was the best thing since sliced bread any intelligent person would see it cannot sustain a profit in such a niche sector of gaming genres.

Guys, you know that if you keep saying bad things about that game , they will make you wait longer in the waiting room, allowing you to shift the thinking mode to POSITIVE Attitude!....

I've heard they have started to make a list!

I wouldn't go that far. SHO has potential. At the very least, it appears that "free to play, pay to win" is curtailed at this point. What irked me, and is the reason I left, is the fact that support doesn't listen very well to complaints that are from bugs that should have never made it past the alpha phase. Also, comparing SH3 and SHO is apples and oranges. SHO was never meant to be the full-blown simulator that SH3 is. Were it not for the crash dive issue and the rather arrogant way that "support" handled my citation thereof, I would still be playing.

I've quit playing. to be honest, I found it rather boring - limited in its scope.
