Silent Hunter 5: Neuer Patch zu Ubisofts U-Boot Simulation

Besserung in Sicht? Bügelt Patch 1.2 wenigstens die ärgsten Fehler in Silent Hunter 5 aus? Silent Hunter 5 (22) Teil 5, der einst ruhmreichen Silent Hunter-Reihe aus dem Hause Ubisoft, ist wertungstechnisch geradezu abgesoffen: Eine magere 54%-Wertung in PCGames spricht diesbezüglich eine mehr als deutliche Sprache. Grund war unter anderem die extreme Anzahl vorgefundener Bugs. Der in Rumänien entwickelte Titel wurde schlicht in unfertigem Zustand ausgeliefert. Ein kurz nach Release erhältlicher erster Patch vermochte es nicht auch nur die ärgsten Probleme zu beseitigen. Folgerichtig bastelte Ubi an weiteren Verbesserungen und stellte heute den nächsten Patch auf Version 1.2 zum Download bereit.
