Hello all.
been a long time since i played any SH title. after purchasing SH5 when it came out and playing for a few weeks i put it to one side.
Ive since started playing again and have a few queries. some you may have seen before so i apologize in advance if its been covered.
1) correct me if im wrong but shouldnt 1-2 torps be enough to sink a ship? im having to use 3 at the very least to sink a ship. where am i going wrong? (i generally use magnetic and manual aim and know how deep to set torps etc) i find myself peeved off with wasting torps and end up shelling them to death which gets a bit tedious.
2) what on earth is wrong with "blockade of Germany" i used the search function in the forums and found a long thread about this, some say that the carrier (Illustrious) docked in Plymouth would count towards the carrier kill. i sank it and was not credited for it. ive killed a couple of AMC ships along the red line and only 2 out of 5 have counted. why? i know the area im supposed to find a carrier but ive been sat here for days now and they seem so few and far between.
3) ive downloaded the OH2 mod and JSGME to run it but no mod ive tried seems to work. do i have to start a new game for them to work?
4) on a few occasions ive slammed 2-3 fish into various ships for them to be on fire and half submerged (either bow heavy or stern heavy) they look waaaaay beyond the point of no return but still they seem to float and never sink. what gives?
5) i remember they days of SH3 and the lethality of aircraft. in SH5 they take absolutely no action agaisnt me at all....just fly right overhead. is this normal?
think ive covered everything i need to know.
cheers happy hunting
