Nobody attacks me!!!
 

I just started to play SH5. For now i have only stock game instaled. My first mission is to sink 100000 tons of ms. Untill now i met maybe 10 planes and no one try to attack me. They just fly nearby like im not even there!!!! Same with destroyers. I atacked a convoy and after explosions no one try to find me. I try again and only 1 destroyer started searching and of course far, far away. :damn: It´s soooo boooorrrriinnngggg!!!! :nope:
Is this "normal" for stock SH5? Have anyone any idea how to solve this problem? Thank you for your help!

No radar that early in the war.

Can´t be radar. How can plane not see u if u can see it with out benoculars?! Did enybody have the same issue with stock SH5?

Yeah thank you Sober. I will try with mega mod (and pray)

Early war in the stock game, planes dont attack.... they do report your position though. Expect ships to investigate their reports.

plus there is a thing called the floor under them so the bucket they sit in blocks most of everything under them and most of all they see is to the side of them so yes it makes sense you see them much better then they see you before there was radar to assist sittings.


plus from the air a sub just looks like a log so if its not producing a nice foamy wake it isnt all that easy to see because of light reflections and shadow effects.


all that being said about how things were, in the stock game you rarely see a ship show up and planes virtually never attack until towards the end.


the mods sober suggested will redo the games AI reaction so it reacts more like you would expect them to.
(it fixes more then just the planes)

So hopefully nothing to worry about. However stock version of the game realy sucks. I can´t belive that AI is even worse than in SH3. Lucky we have such good moders here to make this disaster playable. Cheers to them! :up:
