To prove the value of the type II club, I'm setting off on my final pre-GWX patrol.. and going to visit as many British harbours as possible. Screenshots as proof will be provided.

How many do you think I'll tot up? Place your bets now! :rotfl:

looking forward to seeing your work.

make sure you get plenty of shots of your home port. I dont recall stock SH3 too well but IIRC you will likely pull into the enemy ports either unchallenged or facing a lone corvette or destroyer.

also get a shot of the Great Island Nation and france in the map view to show how many more ports there are in GWX vs. stock

get a shot of the stock map and the GWX map and compare them side by side.

unfortunately you cant screen shot the great work these guys did on sounds.

i cant really remember stock SH3 all that well, after playing the old SH series and 688i for so long i was BLOWN AWAY with SH3 stock when it first came out... but after playing GWX for so long im glad i dont remember what SH3 stock is like... maybe i will load it up on my wife's computer to take a look at the two side by side... :hmm:

Heh... Funny you should mention the sounds in GWX. First post-GWX patrol I was like "what's with all that shouting" after I scored a torpedo hit.

Awesome stuff.

I think playing GWX with a type II boat and seeing how many ports you can infiltrate would be much more of a challenge. :yep:
When visiting ports in stock the biggest threat you face is the tumbleweed rolling across the surface of the water and getting tangled with your scope :D :arrgh!:

Crazy Ian,

Are you going in a IIA or a IID? In a IIA you might run out of diesel by the time you get to Hull :roll: .

I never liked shallow water in any of the SH versions. Curious to see how your challenge goes :rock:
