UBI needs to hire a naval historian specializing in u boats so they cant get it write and leave the arcade crap out.These special abilities and things are just stupid.

You'll be glad they're not aboard when it turns out the head doesn't work.

I am frankly concerned with all the typographical errors on the Ubi webpage. Kinda makes me wonder how important little details are in the game.

Would the cook really be a Petty Officer?

HundertzehnGustav 02-02-10 05:17 PM

of course! he can then Pet the officers...:woot:

No joke, that's what I thought to. If a computer game company can't spell or mistypes numbers, what is the game gonna be like?
I still can't wait to fire that 88cm cannon !

HundertzehnGustav 02-02-10 05:23 PM

LOL I missed that typo. Seeing how it will have a green laser attached, it might just be 88cm. :D

Hell you could easily take on any BB, since Yamato had half of that caliber. :damn:

The Gunner will then use his special ability and makes the Boat go faster by the use of the recoil.

HundertzehnGustav 02-02-10 05:31 PM

? but then he will need to shoot the 88cm cannon at the conning tower?
and the impact of the 88cm shell should all but negate the recoil.

*scratches head*

any math-lovers out here?

floundericiousWA 02-02-10 05:32 PM

The extra thrust from the guns is probably offset by the drag of the towed internet array

HundertzehnGustav 02-02-10 05:33 PM

as a matter of fact, the 88cm shell will have such a "recoil" effect that the entire gun barrel will eksplohde (go bumm), and rip the gun right off the deck.
and the crew will die instantly.

:timeout::timeout:

gimme a 105mm on a IX type boat please!!!!:wah:

Hartmann 02-02-10 05:35 PM

JOKE
 
I suggest more crew members with special Superpowers

with the tendence of SHV development i think that this could be easy to implement.

Chief engineer
http://ufotruth.files.wordpress.com/...star_trek_.jpg
Can easily make your boat a lot faster with a shield of magical power or energy making dc charges unable to damage your boat. Also can do a repair in a very short period of time with tech improvements.

Gunner
http://perthetic.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/rambo1.jpg
He served in a lot of combats, he goes berserker in front of enemy with his 0.50 machine gun and is inmune to bullets and pain, he can also, jump overboard of enemy vessels at night with his survival knife and kill every on board.

Sonarman
http://magnetotrouble.files.wordpres...10/magneto.jpg
With his power magneto hans can detect the magnetic field of the ships, bombs, planes, and convoys or aiming torpedoes to the hull of merchants.
He knows everything in a radious of 30 km of the boat while dive or with fog
There are rumors that he can attract convoys and ships to the boat position.

Weapons officer and TDC
http://www.epsilones.com/imagenes/star-trek/dataST.jpg
He is a very useful member of the crew and is able to do a TDC solution in a second or less , and always the torpedo hits the enemy due his accuracy of the Data introduced in a upgraded tdc.

Other crew members
http://www.stillsecureafterallthesey...zed/borg12.jpg

Very disciplinated , they stay calm like ice during depth charge attacks and are very integrated with the boat , in case of casualties they can use survivors of life boats to replace losses.

Well, since the game ends in 1943, he's not going to have much opportunity to use those skills, is he?

Active abilities
Radar intuition - The radio guy will be able to telepathically detect hidden enemies without having to turn on the radar and give away the boat's presence.

The bad news is that at 34 inches diameter, you can only carry one round. :down:

And once he gets that new warp drive up and running, you'll no longer need Time Compression to finish your patrol in a single evening.
