Whats more annoying

codmander · 03-17-15, 07:22 AM

1. traveling 1000's of km with scope left up

2.convoy 7000 meters away -moving away with just type 2 torps

3. fire a torp with wrong gyro

4. turning into a depth charge

5. blind watchman

6.deaf soundman

love this sim

you forgot to add "diving to 200m depth and leaving 1 or more of the torpedo pressure doors open"

I almost always forget to put the scope away when I am done using it.

I have also done the "target in optimal position for tube 5, but fire tube 4 instead...

(I hate roman numerals)

Ordering 'slow astern' in the heat of combat and then later returning to course and surfacing only to wonder why the boat is going backwards...

There's a name I haven't seen in awhile! How you doing, cap'n?

Annoying? Paying too much attention to the merchant in my sights and not enough to the destroyer on a collision course right behind me.

Blind watchman is the worst.

"They're shooting at us, Captain."
"Who is shooting at us?"
"We don't know, Captain. We don't see anyone anywhere."
"Well, surely you must see the shells coming in or flying over us coming from some direction, right?"
"None of us seem to have noticed, Captain. Nor can we tell you what direction they're flying in from."

5 is de wurst.
then 6

because?
because they dconcern the defense of the boat more than the offense.

Running into the dock at Wihelmshaven.

I got tired of forgetting to put my scope down before surfacing so I used Set Keys to make the "S" key to command surface as well as lower attack and observation scopes and order ahead standard all at the same time. Problem solved.

UKönig · 03-17-15, 08:59 PM

Falling on the torpedo firing button and watching one sail off into the blue, never to be seen again...
(I've program killed the game and relaunched to get my fish back rather than suffer that indignity)

This. But not just Wilhemshaven. Pretty much any dock.

And also plugging random traffic while in the Canal at TC 128. Multitasking isn't for me...

Dat moment your babe (ship) spots you and do zig-zag. LOL, I turned from calm to extreme nervous trying to pu in the right torpedo solution, goddamnit

Hambone307 · 04-27-15, 09:15 PM

Repeatedly hitting the submarine nets in the shallows off Lampedusa and sinking, then reloading the save to do it five more times before figuring it out.

Gunnarr · 05-02-15, 05:10 PM

Sinking a ship, and not getting credit.
And blind watchman, who cant see a destroyer shooting at us until he gets his head blown off!

That is what makes me angry.

Are the nets really that pervasive? Ive only been play for a a few weeks, with Gray Wolf Mod . Is there a real possibility of me randomly hitting a net / mine and losing my mind?
