ABOUT THIS GAME
Hunt, hide and kill as you take command of U.S. submarines and crews and navigate the treacherous waters of the Pacific during WWII.
Silent Hunter, the industry-leading naval warfare simulation franchise for over a decade, returns to its roots with next-generation graphical realism, immersive gameplay, innovative crew evolution and more action than ever before.
Developed by the same Ubisoft team that delivered Silent Hunter 3, the "king of sub games", to worldwide critical acclaim, the 2007 installment offers the most memorable, accessible and empowering submarine simulation experience ever.
Hollywood Blockbuster experience: Lifelike graphics and spectacular audio/visual effects offer an incredibly immersive gaming experience. Witness the historical accuracy and the amazing attention to detail from the breathtaking Pacific settings to the more than 75 authentic-looking war machines such as the U.S. Gato class submarine, the Japanese battleship Yamato and the H6K flying boat.
Large Scale Naval Engagements: Epic naval engagements can be witnessed by players either firsthand or via radio messages and orders from high command.
Innovative crew evolution: Earn upgrades and experience to guide the evolution path of crewmembers, making your men the most effective naval force in the Pacific theater.
Immersive single player gameplay: Diverse mission objectives and events combined with unique rewards make each campaign a new experience. Commandeer various U.S. submarines and progress your career as a naval officer via improved dynamic campaigns in Career Mode, or dive into 'instant actions' and single patrols for a quick fight.
Addictive Online New Adversarial Mode: Join forces with up to 8 friends via LAN or 4 via internet in either cooperative or adversarial gameplay modes. Scripted and generated mission types allow for epic online battles and unlimited replayability.
Scalable learning experience: Selectable difficulty levels allow players to choose how challenging of a simulation to play.
Easy to control: An upgraded and streamlined interface makes moving around the submarine and controlling it much easier than ever before.

Deck gun kills were common in the 42 sub campaign so historically accurate. The abrupte change from being depth charged to suddenly being on the surface in calm seas was a bit of a surprise. Sorry to hear there are technical issues, Good luck.

Yeah, I guess you could call a 76% failure rate a little tempramental. Kinda like you could say Vesuvius only covered Pompeii with a little ash....Lol... Anyway, I'm glad you're doing this series. SH4 doesn't get as much love as I think it should, and it is fun to see things from a different perspective. I only wish they had put in the ability to play as the Japanese, since they had some really interesting sub designs as well. For example, it would have been kind of neat to have a mission commanding an I-400 and sneaking up to the US west coast to launch and recover your aircraft.

Really enjoying this new SH4 series so far Mr. Taff it's nice to see channels giving this game some love here's hoping you eventually do a series with the Asiatic Fleet start using an S Class boat for more of a challenge as it is the oldest class of sub in the game that is playable from the 1941 start date & can only load Mk. 10's.

Excellent episode taff, a tense game of cat and mouse between sub and destroyers.. the good thing is that IJN sonar was weak compared to other navies sonars.. of all destroyers in WW2 IJN sonar was the weakest, but of course that didn't mean it was useless.. sonar was still lethal.. but unless the IJN was in close.. the chances of survial was minimal.. at distance.. it was a different story. Devin Horner mentioned that in one of his episodes.. he mentioned about how weak IJN sonar was.. but I can't remember the full description. Fog on the ocean.. so typical.. that enemy merchant looked like it was trying to ram.. or perhaps it didn't see you and it was there out of fortune. Deck gun never fails does it? Two more trophies to the belt, those will bloody the IJN in regards of their merchant fleet. Your in for a treat out here mate, well done with this episode despite the hardships you've gond through in getting it on 👏 👍

@phillyfanist 7 ай бұрын

you should do a campaign after this where you follow the exploits of commander fluckey. he commanded the uss barb, and among other exploits, was the first sub captain to bombard shore targets with a submarine by having rockets on the main deck. he also sent a raiding party ashore into japan during the war to blow up a train with a scuttling charge. the explosion was so powerful that it launched the train engine over 200 ft in the air. would love to see something like this (or as close as the game will allow) in your videos.

Taff, with the fog, it's been hide and seek, a fascinating cat and mouse game that at times was nail biting! But even with all the problems you've been having, you have still done very well. That last deck gun action was brilliant. I couldn't see those ships at all, yet you still pummeled them with the gun. Weird shit with the fog - sure would be nice to have a surface radar for accurate ranging. Still, the fog means low risk from aircraft.

Could it possibly be that you haven't activated dud torpedoes? At that time you should have somewhere between 50 to 80 percent fail rate with your mark 14s. Up to now you haven't had any duds. I hope you can sort out the problems. It would be a shame if this series went the way SH5 did. I really love to see your SH-content.

@garytwinem5275 7 ай бұрын

The developers of SH4 deliberately lowered the dud rate, even with dud torpedoes turned off because they thought ordinary players would get frustrated if they couldn't sink anything. A strange decision, as you can always turn off dud torpedoes in the settings if you want a casual experience. You need mods in SH4 to get a historical dud rate.

@retmarut4499 7 ай бұрын

@@garytwinem5275 thanks for the clarification. odd decision indeed. The devs could have opted for three settings: no duds, historical or reduced dud chance. That shouldn't have been all to difficult to realize. The overall structure had to be implemented for the yes/no differentiation anyways.

@Lowkeh 6 ай бұрын

@@major3336 Oh! No worries, it's actually my bad because for some reason I couldn't figure out what you meant by "mouse control". It seems so obvious now. You know, that is a very interesting question-so much so that I spent the entire evening searching for documents/reports just to double-check. In short: Yes, you could tilt the periscope up and down, at least in WW2 (idk about WW1). How much you could tilt depended on the periscope. I knew that the observation periscope (aka "air search periscope") of German Uboats were designed to allow for higher angles of view. However, I wasn't sure if the attack periscope could (it could, at least some degree...) US periscopes' maximum tilt varied between 40 to ~78 degrees (again, depends on which of the sub's periscope we're talking about), the latter giving a 90 degree field of view at low magnification power setting.
