Icon8 Really ... I don't know what to say ...

This is a shame ! This game is not at all a simulation !! Here is the proof :





This is IMPOSSIBLE to be precise like this !!!

I stop playing now. I am not sadomasochistic.

So, a simulation is when the game always plays out the way you want it to?

Fahnenbohn, mate: The world of subsims have to consider that manning a real submarine is a multi-person task, and bringing it down to a "one-player" control isn`t possible without some adjustments. That also goes with the models, and the way they are behaving. All of the things that happens in-game has to be balanced between how real it could be, and the size of the end-product that you buy to play. Even in the world of flight sims you get pretty realistic, but not as realistic as a multi-million dollar simulator setup at a flight training facility. Sure, it would be nice to have a submarine simulation game sporting about 800 terrabytes, costing the consumer 40000 dollars to buy, but it would kill the excitement of playing. And, not to mention the realistic chlorine gas from the damaged batteries after a heavy depth charge barrage! (Canister not included, must be bought separately)
And: Remember, there are some AWESOME modders out there, who constantly improves each game! They spend their time and effort making the game better for you and me, and they share it without cost.

...and also to be fair, knowing how the game works, I can tell you that there's no such thing as laser-aimed depth charge throwers in the game and destroyers do not know how to maneuver into exact position to hit you with them. Depth charge throwers simply launch their loads to a pre-set distance as part of a depth charge run. You simply got unlucky in this case.

And why did he launch 4 DC (!) ONLY there ??? On the contrary, I think rather that was a real laser-aimed depth charge thrower ... Really ... pffffff. And in these conditions, some players are playing "Dead is Dead" ?!

No, that was not LSH but GWX sensors. And in addition, my navigator who doesn't stop to tell me "Wir haben wassereinbruch", "Wir haben wassereinbruch", "Wir haben wassereinbruch, herr Kaleun !" JA !!! Ich weiss dass wir eine Wassereinbruch haben , du Idiot !!

This game is a non sense.



I'm desperate.
