I really have to make a judgment call. If I get sniped from a plane when in high TC, then no I do not play dead is dead.
If there is a BS senerio where my boat takes a tiny bit of damage but ends up plunging to the deep due to a bad bit of software writing, then no, my captian and crew are not dead. If my game crashes to desktop...my crew live on. If I am dead silent, regular stations, silent running, below the thermal layer, and have just sucessfully evaded a destroyer that somehow locates my sub without the use of active sonar, and barelling along at 15 to 20, and places one ashcan where it counts? Oh hell no my crew is dead. That is utter rubbish to get located by a ship going at high speed while I am dead silent, below the layer. This has happened several times. If shells come out of the fog, where I can not even see their boat, I don't accept the death. Now, if I am "fairly" located, and pinged and fail to evade the ash cans, then I accept the death of boat and crew. If I am bombed out of the water by a A6M Zero...No way jose. Bombed out by a H8K? The loss is accepted. SH3, was DId, except for computer related deaths. SH4, far too buggy to be Did as yet. |

DiD here. My last career was kinda sad in that I got sunk off the Korea straight by two determined DDs on my 8th or 9th patrol after sinking a Kongo class in Truk, a Shokaku class CV off Honshu and a Taiyo class carrier in previous patrols as well. :nope:
Waiting for the patch before starting over in '41 |
Me too unless its something stupid like a game freeze or power loss.
I take my skippers carriers 'seriously'. I like to see how far they can get befor there inevitable demise. How many carriers have I had ?? To many to count. |
Dead is dead.

Dead is Dead is the way to play the game, it makes everything so much more rewarding.

Lesson of the story? If you are near a destroyer, don't drive in a straight line, a little zig-zagging will keep him guessing about your course and speed and you alive, didn't have any problems since I drive that way. Quote:
about rewarding situations: I was shadowing a task force leaving truk, got into firing position and waited for the TF to get into range, but it changed course, got into new firing position only to find them change course again. It seemed that they were following the coastline so I went for a third firing position near the coast at ahead flank, time was running out. About 6km from my chosen firing position the watch spotted them and had to submerge, which was a problem since my bow tubes all were loaded with the new Mk23 (max. range about 4500m). To complicate things even more I suddenly hit a sub net just after submerging. :damn: I was about to give up when the following came to my mind: I still have 4 Mk14 in the aft tubes and there is some space between the sub net and the surface :D . I chose a nice heavy cruiser (too far away for id, i think something between 6500 and 7000m) and fired 4 fish with a total spread of 1° at minimum depth. Firing solution turned out to be perfect and a Takao Heavy Cruiser was torn apart by 4 torpedo hits and two massive secondary explosions, it went down within minutes. Needless to say, the escorts were pretty confused :|\\ |
Yep.
Just started a new career last night. :oops: Seems the watch on the previous boat was sleeping on my last mission and the crew ran the boat aground and she blew up. :damn: |

Normaly i play DiD. (If testing/tweaking, i am a gross abuser of the load game function :88) )

When I said I play DiD, I meant it. Unfortunately, I got to test my commitment to it last night. I was heading south to Fremantle after a successful patrol (had done a harbor raid on Balikpapan), and got blasted by a patrol plane halfway between Java and Australia--quite a ways from land. My SD radar gave no warning, it was a visual sighting. Since my Sargo sub is slow on submerging, I crank up the speed, man the AA, and make evasive actions. Not good enough this time. Thus ends my Asiatic fleet career, that had started in Dec 41 in a Sugar Boat.
