Icebergs?
 

I notice that icebergs are in the roster, but i've never seen one in-game.
I've heard a bit about them but never got a straigh yes/no answer.
Thanks :)

There are icebergs in the sim, but only a small token number so they're hard to find. If the game tried to load as many bergs as there are really out there in the Arctic, it would crash most systems.

Yeh, you'd need a real 'Titanic' rig...

Hur hur hurr...

There are indeed icebergs and sometimes you can see the whales swimming around them....in SH3 GWX.

They are there my watch crew did not spot them till we where 50mts away i think his name was Bernard:doh:, ended up with severe flooding and had to limp back to base.

in the single missions (GWX) there is at least one with a lot of ice in it. :D

Oh i saw a couple of icebergs allready (why did u call them icebergs? if i took the german word Eisberg the exact translation must be something like icemountain) but i never saw whales arround (GWX 3Gold ofc).
I hear them at the hydrophone but never saw some.

'Iceberg!! Right ahead!!!'

'Forget that Lightoller, someones nicked one of our funnels....'

Is that your sub right in front of her? I'm beginning to think she wasn't sunk by an iceberg :D

Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm baby! :rock:

Icebergs
 

When patrolling way up north I have seen a few. Funny thing is they tend to come up on the hydrophones as a very slow moving vessel like 1-2knots. Before I realized what they were I would intercept these contacts and find myself face to face with an ice mountain. Weird. Also, via the hydrophones I will hear "biologicals" very near these bergs. Whales I suppose....:hmmm:

Now, see... folks on your end of the spectrum have had that experience with this sim. I'm always too busy trying (and mostly faltering) to rack up tonnage. Should I stop to smell the roses once in awhile? :hmmm:
