Gulls have to be in! Ow ow ow and make them so that you can shoot them down and they explode to this bloody mess of flesh and feathers and they drop power-ups you can then pick up like shield around your boat and lasers and... and... stuff. :rock:

Was there just one type of seagull, or were all known varieties represented? Can more varieties be modded in? WE NEED TO KNOW.

European seagulls only, sorry.

Unfortunately, programming has repeatedly refused to have seafulls land on the AA guns barrel or periscope, even if I requested this since SH3 :(

Could we have a seagull that poops on my WO's head? Because that would be awesome.

And maybe a super secret keyboard shortcut that makes it happen, only you have to, like, acquire Oak Leaves to your Knight's Cross before it's activated.

(I hope you know we are all just being silly. :D)

you can't have seagull soup if there aren't any seagulls in it now can you. doh!

next we'll be hearing there's no fish in the sea.... pffttt :o

is there no end to this misery!

Those seagulls are British agents and are responsible for most U-boats sinkings.
Think about it. How often do you see seagulls hundreds of miles from the coast? Right, never, EXCEPT if they're following a German u-boat.

Or Moby Dick.

And both should be approached with caution, or not at all!

Hehe, did you know in ww1 the british trained seagulls to um... foul the periscopes of german uboats, forcing them to surface and clean the scope, unfortunatly the guills couldnt tell the difference between british and german scopes!

I believe Dan has already stated that there will only be one type of seagull in SHV - the European. Yes, I know, it's a disappointment, but studies of the market have shown that if the game were to be limited in this fashion, the European type was far and away the most popular. The upside of this development is that it will be a fully modeled, graphically perfect and 100% historically accurate European seagull and, should you catch one, you will be able to examine it in exquisite 3D detail from beak to tail feathers.

Also, soup!

AVGWarhawk

There is one gull in the game. The Laughing Gull.

I can hear this gull all the way in Romania!

J/K Dan! :)

When we shot one, and it drops near in the sea, will we be able to pick it up to make the soup? and what if a modder makes us an African version? are we still be able to pick it up? and the cook, will he deny cooking it or doesnt he care and can this be modded?
Also when they are 'unladen' their inners on the foredeck does it stay when submersed or does it wash off? and is there any tactical use of of both ?

questions...

Sorry, due to a hardcoded limitation of the game Pi r squared. Trust me you don't want Warhawk's pi. He says it's seagull, but.......

Who needs seagulls when you have a cook offering you soup? Again, and again and again....

Who needs seagulls when you spend hours setting up a shot and the UBI servers go down?

Who needs seagulls when UBI goes belly up and they disconnect their servers, thereby rendering your saved game to loose electrons that diffuse throughout the universe?

We don't even have all the uboats or the entire war, haha, so what are sea--

Wait a minute. There aren't any SEAGULLS? :wah:

because it was completley impossible to lower the scope and raise it again? ;)

where i grew up (south coast of devon, england - english channel) the seagulls were the size of turkeys, aggressive beyond measure, with insane passion for ice cream.

so should you find yourself on the conning tower of your type VII, cruising along the south west coast of england, holding an ice cream, you'd be glad you had that flak gun!
