Gramophone Questions.

Plumber1 · 08-24-15, 05:12 AM

So I've been wondering for a while but have never had the balls to check during a patrol, does the gramophone being played while submerged have any effect on your subs detectability?

Also, does the gramophone have any "in-game" effect on your crew (e.g. increase rate of recovery or morale) or is it merely for my enjoyment?

Cheers,

Steve.

No, it has no impact on your gameplay, it is just for immersion.

I see, well thanks for that. I'll just keep pretending it does then

Personally, I think that when I run silent it should shut off.

As soon as I get a visual or sound contact the first thing I do is yell "Shut that thing off! I can't think!"

Great idea, Steve! I will add it to my voice command repertoire.

I never thought of that. I don't use voice commands. My yelling is all inside my head.

My house isn't so lucky and gets to listen to my screaming quite regularly.

Wife commented the other day about how few I've yelled (Too busy to play games last week)

I have tried to ignite such a collection with Command Chains - post your favorites here! but received only little response.

Good point. I have numerous keys set to multiple commands.
