Call me strange, but my favourite part of this game...
 

...is DAMAGE CONTROL! Seriously, what other part of the game creates so much suspense? Not knowing if you'll get the water out in enough time to level off your boat before crush depth... helplessly awaiting the escort to deliver the coup de grace while your valiant crew struggles to get the engines online.

Nail-biting.

'.. Destroyer comming nearer, .. almost above us now..' :up:

It does rattle ones cage herr kaleun.

Not sure if I could pick out one most favorite thing. But on occasion I do like intercepting - blasting a DD-Escort, no they are not so much for tonnage but make for some of the best Explosions :yep:
Finding, and getting into position on a nice convoy with juicy targets in the center - then getting fish to them past the screening merchants is also quite cool.

"oh man! Wenn iss' es endlich vorbei!"

Chilling

My favourite part is when I am being depthcharged. LOL

I guess I just basic. My favorite bit is the last 20-30 minutes as we enter harbour, which I do at TCx1 having a drink. At dockside, I listen to the band.

Like all stupid sailors, once I'm in port I want to go out. Go figure :roll:.

It gives me a sinking feeling.

Getting the chance to use my deck gun. :D

Being depth charged and waiting in the command station to see if the charges are about to exploded close enough to make the ship roll :yep:

Strange

I too enjoy cruising the harbor, watching all the ship and planes.

Ditto. The tense moments of the pinging and silence before things start to go boom.

I love that feeling when you've basically blown off his bow... and he almost goes crash dive to the bottom at 30 odd knots!

Try the depth charges shaking mod.. really scary, the sense of breaking up is very intense. :doh:

now is like a giant hammer hitting against the hull, really impressive

:yep: Me too. I really do want to shout 'Fire deck gun!'

Sadly I haven't the time for SH3...:damn: Not for for a while.:damn:

My favourite parts are when I manage to hit a destroyer in the ammo pits and you see a chain reaction goes off, and when I make it back to base in one piece.

Masochist!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

(Don't worry... I think we all like getting spanked a little bit.:arrgh!: )

(addenda: ...errrmm by depth charges that is! :huh: )

My favorite part is being depth charged with the external camera off. Talk about an edge of your seat thrill if you play DiD. Seriously!

I'm with you Penelope, there's nothing more intense than listening to the pings. Then hearing depth charges in the water, Sir. And waiting to find out how close they really are.............:rock: :rock: :rock:

I have external camera but i dont use it during DC attacks....listening to where they explode...ahhh the tension!

The sound of destroyers giving up their search. :sunny:
