When does the R.A.F. deside to show up to the party? GWX 3.0
 

Ive lived until march of 41' playing DID. Ive come and gone all over the bay of biscay and never since GWX3 have I sighted more than 1 aircraft per campaign!

Wait until late 1942 and early 1943, from that time range onwards you will be crash diving so frequently from aircraft encounters that it will become quite annoying after a while.

;)

I mean you will literally find yourself relieved when the weather is bad because it means those airplanes wont be about.

eventually the yanks will be hitting your port during daylight with heavy bombers and the brits will be hitting it at night.

By the end of 1943 into 1944 you will have almost surely been killed by an airplane.

you will have virtually no place to run, and if you get a hunter killer group on you with a carrier... no place to hide too

Well thanks for that bit of optimism, Mr. Sunshine! :O:

hahaha

well you know well as i do its the truth :DL

forward wives and girlfriends address and telephone numbers to KptLt. Goldenrivet and i will help them with the grieving process when you get your asses depth charged into oblivion somewhere in that cold atlantic water

I was thinking the same thing and now I have whammied myself. Seven Patrol March 1940 BaBoom I found them. Damn

Granted I was only 50km or so off the east coast of England/Scotland but twice during my last patrol I was accosted by airplanes in Sept 1939!

First one was just a random patrol flying about, second one was most likely called in by a merchant I was chasing (box intercept) that must've spotted me.

Both cases I simply crash dived the second I saw her and nothing else happened, never even heard them drop bombs.

This was GWX 3.0, of course.

They're even worse in NYGM.

They seem to have a range of around 350km from all the bases in Scotland/Nth Ireland, and that's early 1940. Stay on the surface from pre-dawn to dusk and you WILL get attacked within an hour at most, and then within 3-25 minutes upon surfacing if you've been attacked previously.

I find it a bit excessive, truth be told.....
