enjoy :salute:

Welcome aboard!

thx :)

Those bloody health bars :nope: I know you can turn them off but they shouldn't of even been added in the first place!

Thanks for pics :up:

The smoke...
:o

Welcome aboard, grab a life jacket.

What is the capy. saying? :hmmm:

No glowing sun and AA broken again?
Sorry I couldn't resist :DL

Mud

In picture 15 (call me a nitpicker) i dont see a sinlge other u-boats in the pens. Also there only seems to be activity in the pens that the players sub is in. I could be wrong and there might be in the release version. But if would be so lame if it was out only our own u-boat again. I mean community mods have shown that it wasnt that difficult at all to put them in , and maybe thats not why there in in the final version. Who knows?

who does the ingame maps, Edinburgh is about 100 miles north of its actual position,:oops: Got Glasgow spot on..

:salute: Thanks! And welcome aboard

Thanks a lot. Loved no. 16 :arrgh!:

Nice shots! Thanks for posting and welcome aboard!

laser-sighted deck guns :damn:

I can't understand why, in most (maybe all?) pics, here and on other web sites, at least one periscope is extended when the sub is surfaced:damn:

You mean picture 5 Neal?

It says:

yeah i know.

wouldnt want to attract new blood to the series :shifty:

In almost all shots the guy is attacking on the surface with his laser guided deck gun :nope:

Other than that, pretty interesting angles on some screenshots there :up:

Well, assuming the core sim hasn't been watered down, as the devs assured Neal it hasn't, I guess I'll just have to learn to live with the spectacular graphics.

Here are my thoughts on some of the pictures (picture number included with each comment):

2 - I can't imagine ANYONE, even a "casual gamer", wanting stupid-looking health bars like that. I've seen them in nearly every screenshot so far, so I REALLY hope they're not lying when they say it's optional.

4 - I like how the guys on the burning, sinking ship are just chilling out like nothing's happening.

5 - Is it just me, or does that guy have a lazy eye?

6 - I like the addition of shadows on the water.

7 - Cool smoke. I wonder what it looks like animated.

8 - "I want a deck gun with frickin' laser beams!"

9 - Looks like they kept the stupid "wavy" underwater view. If you put a camera underwater, it doesn't look like that. what are they trying to accomplish with this effect?

11 - I think the water droplets will get annoying, especially from the bridge view. Am I supposed to be wearing glasses or something? Even if it's supposed to be drops on a camera lens, I don't see droplets on the screen during movie scenes that take place in the rain, why do I see them here?

13 - Looks nice! Makes me want to run around shooting people a la "Medal of Honor."

16 - The word bubble makes it look like a screenshot from "The Sims - Das Boot edition." And why is the periscope up?

17 - Very glad to see the conning tower art!! Hopefully there will be a way to add kill flags (not sure if the Germans did that, though)

20 - I wish the water would get stirred up more where a ship is sinking

21 - Just chilling out... in the fire.

23 - "Remember Luke, the Force will always be with you..."

------------------

It seems like such a mix of really great-looking graphics, and really horrible-looking things that make you say "what the hell were they thinking?!?"

Hopefully a lot of the added, unrealistic "casual gamer" things can be removed.
