I am still waiting to get into the GW forums. And I am missing all the fun.:nope:

Well I see that you got registered, so I guess when the Kpt gets in, he'll give you access to everthing, as long as you sign the agreements. :up:

It says back in the forums that the newest registered member is you. So, you should get in. :hmm:

I cant evean find it.

Your not supposed to lol :D (joke):up:

Judging by your current avatar, it seems you've got all the fun you can handle at the moment. :p

Sorry for my absence . It has been a rotten day in real life.

Deep Six please be patient I will get you sorted... and one or two others that have registered and are waiting to get in.

I get through Navy Dude, now I have to deal w/ this one?:o

This is going to end up the longest thread in history , and the most watched .

Harder, more capable adversary is all fine and good...and we need the AI to be more challenging.

But how does the lower tonnage that you are able to get balance within GWX? I mean I would hate to have to fight the whole war in a Type IIA U boat :o

I always thought the tonnage needed/vs. prestige rewards were a bit wonked. I mean it isnt bad at the current vanilla settings (I play with all difficulty on except for TDC on...I do brain work all day, last thing I want to do is some geometry/calculus when I get home)... but if the AI DDs are way better I could see it taking forever to just upgrade to a Type VIIB

All i can say is try not to worry:up:
Save getting stressed over "will this be in and will that be in"..this is what beta testing is for.
We are working as fast as we can( without compromising the GWX structure ) We need to give the testers time to play everything ( beleave there's a lot ) and give us accurate feed back. Please be patient.
Bottom line is, as you have heard snippets from the beta testers you will not be dissapointed.:smug:

I have modded my GW1.1a files to make all upgrades cost zero renown. I only left crew "purchases" alone and costing renown. I'm planning to do the same with GWX when it becomes available. It only takes about 10 minutes to do (I'm a slow typer) and IIRC only need entries in the Basic.cfg to be changed.:arrgh!:

But why? I see no need for such a thing. You're better off playing with renown!

Because the GW renown system severely penalizes you if you don't play at 100% difficulty. With everything else on except for map updates, manual targeting and external camera you don't get around 63% of total renown, that's really sucky. With NYGM you get 100% tonnage with even less than those features on.

So when faced with having to do nearly twice as many patrols to afford the same amount of upgrades it's really easier to just get rid of the whole renown system completely since only getting 63% credit is UnFun™. :)

Hello everyone... just thought I would interject here with a link to a previous post of mine that explains how to organize your .ogg gramaphone files so they won't skip anymore. I've been playing on and off since I wrote the following link message and have yet to encounter a problem.
Here is the link for how to fix your SH3 Gramaphone:

By the way, I am running GW1.1a for the curious!
