I tagged a lone C3 in the dark on my second patrol. Kind of more challenging to aim at 2am than in that tutorial in broad daylight, hey? I'd post some screenies, but have just discovered that all the shots I've taken have come out plain black :(
Please post some more shots of this game please guys.
Not mine - but still good ;)

What happens when your firing solution is bang on ;

Is this game easy to get into for a non sim player like me...
Yes - the difficulty is easily scaleable, and you can get your crew to do everything for you, but be very clear this is a submarine simulation, lots of patience, planning and waiting involved, your boat will do 15 knots surfaced, thats about 8 days of sailing just to get from port to the patrol area, and even then you are not guaranteed a victim. You can accelerate time to allieviate the long periods of nothing happening, but don't step into this expecting a ship shooting arcade game.Quote:

Well I had about 7 days of rough weather in the North Sea, my patrol area was just east of the Orkneys and the 24 hours passed with not a single sighting, so after patrolling for another 48 hours I decided to head down the Easet coast at a leisurely 5 knots, awful weather and poor visibility meant I was just waiting for a break in the weather and an opportunity to use a torpedo or two, nope the storm just contiinued on and on.
I reached East of Norfolk and the sea began to improve, then the next morning it was like a millpond as I reached the English Channel.
Spotted a small merchant and approached at periscope depth to within 1000 yards - I asked my WO for a firing solution just to make sure, and my first topr was bang on target (couldn't miss tbh)
Merchant starts to sink, but I sent another torp just to make sure, in this area of shallow water the wreck was sticking out of the water. I surfaced to allow my happy crew the opportunity to see their handywork, when my lookout calls 'Warship Spotted'
2 armed merchants heading our way - our victim was obviously able to initially call for help and this was the response.
Just managed to crash dive in time as a 4" shell misses my conning tower by an inch, I'm now sitting silent and shallow in 40m of water as 2 angry little ships are circling overhead, I think they are moving away, slowly.
Sounds like great fun Skii, it seems to me that the game builds up tension well.
was playing this multiplayer at i23, awesome game :D
It certainly does Wedge, it manages to combine the boredom of nothing happening with the sudden emergency situations very well - you just never know what is going to happen, and I swear to god that 4" shell just shaved my boat, the waterspout as it landed was incredible.Quote:

Manning the deck gun to put a few shells into my semi-sunken victim really wasn't the best idea considering - the good news is that these little warships are not equiped with depth charges so I just need to sit tight and wait for nightfall, then I can surface and move on.
Best game ever IMHO.
Well I think that I may go and buy it today then as it sounds fun, maybe we could play mutliplayer later :)
I threw myself into finishing building my conservatory just so i can play. Tis 'kin ace!!!
Skii its just possible I may have to hate you for suggesting this to me. Got it yesterday
O M G!!! Setting off tonight on my 1st patrol :) Love it love it love it
Looks like I will definately be buying this game today then guys, anyone fancy some multiplayer action later?
