Time To Be Honest !!!

Goat · 09-10-2006, 03:58 PM

Time for HONESTY, Crew !!! Has Anybody... Ever... succeeded in 'passing' the Torpedo Attack Training Mission ?

I have run that fool thing for a week now.. I have been submerged/ surfaced/ broadside/ head-on/ DIW / Underway/ close / far.... NO, I am not running Grey Wolves.. just SH3 and the 1.4b patch.

I cannot...CANNOT, hit those damned ships. Close..'but no cigar'. I'm ready to accept what 'learning' I have acquired... accept my Not Satisfactory.. and move on.

But I sure am curious...............

My solution:
...
...
0% Realism?

_Seth_ · 09-10-2006, 04:02 PM

Sorry, i have never passed it. When i joined the SHIII kriegsmarie, they just ask us "do you know whaz a zubmarine izt?" i replyed "Jaa, i've zeen one a long time ago". "gut, then you will be zhe Kaleun". And off to sea i went...

spork542 · 09-10-2006, 04:06 PM

Mm, well seriously, I think I just got really lucky. It frustrated me a lot so I turned down the realism to 0%. I don't remember what exactly I did.

Goat · 09-10-2006, 04:09 PM

Unless I didn't hold my tongue right when I installed the Game.. there ARE NO 'realism' settings for the Training Missions... That's why those silly little red/yellow/green triangles [instead of a True Solution]....

I didn't really mind the practice... my Real World sailoring was bobbing around ON the water! I just like to think that I can PASS something...

Sailor Steve · 09-10-2006, 05:16 PM

Yes, I've passed them all, including the Torpedo Training. It's hard when the first one dodges the fish by accelerating. No, I haven't sunk them all, but it did say "Passed" (or "Completed" or whatever it is).

Goat · 09-10-2006, 05:23 PM

Good 'Nuff... Off to the next hurdle.. before I bunch this and GO NUKE

I've run the Academy each time I've started a new campaign. I've been able to get "Excellent" scores each time. The torp training is one of the easiest, topped only by the deck gun training.

Sailor Steve · 09-10-2006, 05:38 PM

Of course you could always go to the file it's stored in and give yourself 1500 renown for passing the Academy. I don't remember where it is, though (can't look at my game)...

Goat · 09-10-2006, 05:41 PM

I'd never accuse a Down-Easter of blarney... but from MY quarter-deck, 'easiest'..isn't even spellable !!!

STEED · 09-10-2006, 05:50 PM

I can not remember it was so, so long ago.

Safe-Keeper · 09-10-2006, 05:53 PM

Even at realism 0%, I never got anything better than average.

Something is amiss when the training mission is harder than anything in the game itself:p.

Goat · 09-10-2006, 05:59 PM

Where are you guys getting Realism Settings for the Training Missions ? Hey, STEED, everybody is a 'boot' once...

kiwi_2005 · 09-10-2006, 06:33 PM

Im the same as Steed, i can't remeber

Cdre Gibs · 09-10-2006, 08:20 PM

I also run the Academy each time I start a new campaign. Each time its been "Excellent" scores. I dont leave the missions till every thing is either sunk or shot down.
