Detection Distance
Hi guys, is anyone aware of the distance at which merchant ships or destroyers detect you if you are on the surface as I've been struggling to make an estimate? Or does anyone have a good estimate based on what they noticed in game? :ping:

I don't think the German's asked the Allies how far away the could be before they got spotted.
I don't think we should be thinking too hard about this, nor should be try and disseminate any 'findings' or ask others to provide data on the range. Part of the *fun* of approaching the targets is not knowing, and the risk of how far to push it. Otherwise, we might as well just dumb it right down with a visibility / detection meter. /smh |

I see your point and agree to the extent that some level of randomness needs to be introduced (not sure now how cut and dry the visual spotting distance is), but without the ability to know you could at least get somewhat close for an effective dark night surface attack, we can’t perform the tactic that was the bread and butter of the U-boat arm. |
That sounds great, but we shouldn't ever get to the point where it's predictable.
I think most experienced alpha testers already recognise the AI needs to be ramped up as the convoys and the destroyers are quite easy to deal with, and I have hope that the devs will address these in time. I just don't want anything to put the tension and (good) anxiety at risk because some people want to feel invincible in every game they play. |
