Who say that Jap Sub can't be sunk??

Matti55 · 08-31-07, 05:37 AM

I was reading some topic about indestructable Japanese sub... I swum to the Yokosuka harbor and see Hiryu Carrier and two Crusiers and guess what submarine that Aicraft Carrier-Submarine. So I saved the game and fire all 6 toprps... And it have drowned!! But I don't get any information like "Enemy unit destroyed" only I shoot it and it drowned like with bug it disapered from map and I don't get tonage from it, some time it happens with normal ships.

So what do you think about it??

Edit:
I loaded game and do some screenshots that shows how its going to sink...

Sorry for taking so much place on the board, but I wanted to show you step by step how the japanse aicraft carrier - submarine is ending it's life... Heh, and the funiest thing is that in the "Musem" there is Jap submarine, but not that this in musem is called "Miget" ... Lol

Can't really see it...

If you didnt get credit for her, how can you be sure that she did not just submerge and sit out your attack?
It does seem strange that they went to the effort of putting that sub in the game but completely left her out of the ID manuals (both in game and the paper manual).
Yet another issue to put on the 1.4 wish list :hmm:

Heh, becouse subs don't submarged in 45 degrease :P and don't crashing it on the bottom

somebody needs a touch up on grammar.

Matti55,

Thanks for sharing....

I have one OTT question.

Are you using a Periscope mod?

If so which one?

SteamWake · 08-31-07, 05:25 PM

Images could use a little gamma correction.

I think he sunk the pier and it fell on the sub :p

08-31-07, 07:06 PM

I still think he could have had flooding, gone to the bottom in a steep dive and not be destroyed. After all this is in a harbor where the bottom is well within the crush depth of the sub. As for the crashing noise, I would not put too much faith in that. Have you had the mission to insert the agent into enemy territory?

(the rubber raft sure is loud against the side of your boat). Either way, I bet it was still fun to watch that sub go down

The indestructible sub is the migit sub.

The geniuses back in the states have enhanced Matti's pics. Here they are:

OSS and NAVINTEL offices have awarded a damaged submarine to Matti55's war record. Claims of target destruction are "disputable" (OSS) or "doubtful" (NAVINTEL) until postwar Japanese records (if any) can reflect on the issue. Admiral Lockwood's office conveys its congratulations, but strongly urges all US submarine captains to hit targets with a sufficient quantity of ordinance as to render the target's status beyond all possible dispute.

Shouldn't group torpedos like that. You'll tend to get more premature's like that. You should be firing one waiting a slow six count then firing again to give them proper spacing.

Lafferty · 09-02-07, 10:48 AM

intresting if only they let it count toward your tonnage.

Frederf · 09-02-07, 04:39 PM

I also don't think the Jap Sub is "faking it" because they don't have any dive mechanics. As far as the game goes they are strictly surface ships.
